Responsible. Disciplined. Self-control. The Goat that represents Capricorn was traditionally illustrated as half-goat, half-fish, this complex double nature is echoed in the Capricornian character, one of the most diverse characters in all the zodiac. They have two particular qualities. One side of the sign is ambitious, dedicated, and venturesome. This Capricornian is profoundly energetic, loves life, and can define high yet feasible objectives. The opposite side, however, is lost in a universe of real or imagined obstacles to overcome. Further, this Capricornian regularly can't track down the inspiration to make a move and challenge those impediments. Indeed, even successful Capricomiars tend to whine and complain about imagined troubles. These darker tendencies are not eased by Capricornians' introverted qualities and love of isolation.

Those born between December 23rd and January 20th have the Sun in Capricorn. Capricornians belong to the element of Earth and they posses a Cardinal quality. This sign is ruled by the planet Saturn.
