December 22nd to January 20th
When you are looking at the person who is staying cool and confident under pressure, chances are they are probably a Capricorn. Those born under this sign seem to be graced with an innate steadiness no matter what the upheaval around them.
Unfortunately, you do have periods where you feel you are all alone because you only have your self to depend on – life’s hit you with that one already.
But the reputation for being a gruff goat or a gloomy Gus is just unwarranted. You have an absolutely sparkling sense of humor combined with an excellent and innate sense of timing. People forget that you’re normally the one in the group that throws out the sharp, witty one-liner that takes the stress out of the situation succinctly putting the entire group at ease, because you do it so well.
Goats are patient animals (although they can be cantankerous) and have learned the value of time. With Saturn as your ruling planet you could well feel weighted down with the responsibilities of family, spouse, job, career, friends and more! You know what you have to do in most cases you don’t even mind doing it! As long as you can see a light beyond the storm you have no problem sticking it out. Here Saturn’s long term energy is your ally doing what you need to do. In fact, in many cases it is your sheer determination that gets you through. Yes the Capricorn can tend to frustration and impatience, but if you remain aware of these factors and find something fun or positive to do with that energy you can achieve your goals with serenity.
The sure-footed goat is an animal which is able to climb the highest peaks, knowing how to take advantage of the smallest foothold. Goats are accused of butting heads against an obstruction to shove it out of their path. Normally though, you have been challenged before resorting to such behavior.
You are ambitions with a strong desire for success. It is important to you to achieve and with your steadiness and determination it is rare occurrence for you to fail. Patience is not one of your better virtues, but you can work through it even if it does create some gnashing of teeth.
Conservative on the whole, you are even more so about finances. You understand the simple KISS (Keep It Simple Sweetheart) philosophy and normally apply it to all aspects of your life.
Naturally reserved and sometimes even mistrusting, you are cautious when meeting new people. You feel it prudent to hold back and watch to see if a person’s actions and words match before you consider approaching.
Intelligent and sharp-minded you are sometimes accused of being cunning unto a con-artist, maybe not the most deserved of associations though! You are good at grasping the new opportunity when it is presented and are open enough to share with those you love.
Capricorn would do well to capitalize on the best connection for a romantic relationship with either a Taurus or a Virgo. If you like being challenged and are one of those Capricorns who do like to butt heads and those tend to be people of great orative skill, an Aires or Libra will give you the opportunity, but may not end happily. Your opposite sign of Cancer could provide you the attractive home life to provide a strong stable foundation for Capricorn’s perchance for public life.
