Overview

Capricorn is the sign of goals, responsibility and long-term effort. Ruled by Saturn, Capricorn understands that real results take time, and is willing to do the work. Beneath the serious surface there is usually a dry sense of humor.

A strong Capricorn Sun is mature, reliable and quietly ambitious, and often grows more relaxed and more playful with age.
