The Ultimate Guide to the Astrological Sign Capricorn

Capricorn: Cardinal-Earth

If you're born between December 22nd and January 19th, you are the astrological sun sign known as Capricorn.

Capricorn represents the tenth sign of the astrological chart. Responsible for ruling these specific areas of the body: the knees, joints, and the skeletal system.

Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn.

Saturn is associated with restriction and limitation. Saturn commands us to get to work and to work hard. It's sole purpose is to teach us life's lessons. This is mainly because discipline and responsibility are important to this planet.

This sign is masculine by nature (the planets alternate feminine and masculine energy).

Capricorn Decans

What is a decan? Every sun sign is divided into three 9-10 days slots, each of which is a Decan – a set ruled by a different planet, and contains different characteristics. This is why you can have two people who share the same sign but have completely opposite personalities!

Capricorn and Capricorn Rising From An Outside Perspective

Capricorns are known for always thinking ten steps ahead. Anything that they do is premeditated with much thought way in advance and acted upon with complete ease when you're ready to do so.

You are all for hard work. Those born under this zodiac sign are more than eager to put in a full day at the office, realizing that it will likely take quite a lot of those days to get to the top. Which is where you want to be anyway.

Can be stubborn or hard to talk to at times and will not budge if you have already made up your mind about a certain matter. It will be tough getting you to change your mind and see the others point of view because you can be stuck in your ways which is true for Earth signs!

For the overworked, person who works 30+ hour shifts who doesn't have enough "me" time or the extensive funds for an overpriced one day treatment. I've been there and we all know how frustrating it can be. You have the perfect options for the comfort of your own home for you and that special someone.
