Capricorn is the mountain Goat, and the symbol for this sign describes sturdy ambitions and a long slow climb to the top. The individual’s attitude to life is shaped by practical necessity, and Capricorns are unlikely to disrupt the status qua, unless they believe that it can be improved.

Capricorns are learning to master their environment and themselves, so that they shine as an example of the power of the human will. Capricorn is often called the late bloomer of the zodiac, but will struggle persistently, against tremendous odds to reach the pinnacle they seek.

Given the opportunities and the motivation, Capricorn can make  good manager, although they can sometimes find it difficult to delegate, shouldering all the responsibility. Capricorn can also find it difficult to have fun and relax, they are concerned with tradition and structure, and take marriage and family commitments very seriously.

This is a socially orientated sign, which plays by the rules and projects the right social image. Capricorn wants to socially advance, and their underlying belief of destiny involves contributing something meaningful and lasting to society and to build something of social worth to many. Capricorn wants to build something important in the world that stands as a testimony to their hard work and efforts.

“This Capricorn is the ideal industrialist or businessperson, letting no humanitarian concerns interfere with the important business of making money. Capricorn’s central belief is that fancy ideas are far less important than the need to get the job done and keep the world ticking over. However, the tail of Capricorn rests in water, revealing another dimension to this sign, almost a shadow side. It can indicate an artist, visionary, or a revolutionary who believes that the regular order of the world must be overthrown.”
