December 22 - January 19
Earth sign ruled by Saturn, the Roman god of agriculture, social order, and conformity.
Positive traits: Dependable, sophisticated, resourceful, wise, responsible, loyal, disciplined, patient, ambitious, practical, cautious
Negative traits: Cold, insensitive, stubborn, pessimistic, unsatisfied
Capricorns are cautious, responsible, driven people who will always reach their goals by putting in hard work and playing fair. They are incredibly responsible and everything they do is of quality -- even if they can be a little stubborn, stiff, or cold about how things are done. Capricorns are masters of self-control and approach all that they do with a rational perspective and great maturity. This being said, they are also very independent, resourceful, loyal, and disciplined. They are more interested in the here and now rather than 'what ifs' of the future -- and this is a great strength.
Because they are extremely success-driven and sometimes care about fame, prestige, or money, they are deeply dedicated to their endeavors and will always be sure to get what they work for. Overall, Capricorns are efficient, industrious people who tend to do things a little more traditionally than others -- and in doing so, they may just accomplish more, as they plan to.
