Capricorn (Makara) is ruled by Saturn and is the sign of ambition, discipline and enduring achievement. These natives are responsible, patient and hard-working, climbing steadily toward their goals like the mountain goat. Practical and self-disciplined, they take the long view and earn lasting success through effort rather than luck. Reserved on the surface, they carry deep loyalty and a dry, earthy humour beneath.
Capricorn loves seriously, loyally and for keeps. They are not given to flashy romance but show love through commitment, security and steadfast support. They build relationships slowly and permanently, needing a patient partner who values stability and shared goals. Beneath the reserve lies deep, lasting devotion.
Capricorn thrives in administration, management, law, finance, government, engineering, construction and any large institution rewarding patience, structure and long-term effort. They are the natural builders of lasting careers.
