The Capricorn symbol is The Goat, the key is "I use" and ruled by Saturn.
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Knowing their capabilities, Capricorns are very independent, and rarely trust others to finish the finer details for them, preferring to do it all themselves.
A strong friend to have, Capricorns are always there to help, being sympathetic and caring to the friend in need. With the ability to get someone back on their feet, they will provide a steady plan to succeed, expecting nothing in return. Being deep and mysterious, full of intrigue, there is something always going on in their mind.
With leadership and achievement high on their horizon, Capricorn want to climb the corporate ladder and be the best they can. They have an excellent sense of time and manage it very well, excellent at organisation. While they are creative, its not a spontaneous creativity, instead it comes from the time management and incorporation into their ideas. Making good, wise investments, they plan for the long term, and what will give the most benefit down the road.
Capricorns live by self-discipline and responsibility, and so can seem melancholy and stern. They like to evaluate everything, weighing the pros and cons of a situation, avoiding chance as much as possible. Structure is what makes a Capricorn feel safe, and to others their serious drive may seem boring. Their self-sufficiency may seem boring to the onlooker but they are not as cold as they seem, they just like to do everything themselves, making sure everything is finished and done properly, the way they like it. They like to be in control. This control can spill into other peoples lives, which can make them seem intrusive, not everyone welcoming the Capricorns suggestions. There is only a right way and wrong way to do things to a Capricorn, which can make them close minded, stubborn and reluctant to agree with others. They need to learn that there is more than one way of doing things, and their way is not always right, and not imposing their way on others.
A Capricorns continuous need for growth and sense of melancholy causes them to feel unworthy. Once they realize that all they need is self-love, door will open and they will see the world in a new light, one that allows for pleasure and guilt-free fun. Security, both financial and material are the most important needs for Capricorn, driven by their ambitious character and desire to succeed. They are very concerned with their public standing and their prestige. While they need to feel appreciated, Capricorns tend to be loners, but are excellent at hiding this fact. Being self contained, they present many faces to the world, often being aloof and indifferent. As a result they may never really know who they are, and question their own self-worth, due to feelings of insecurity. Emotional connections can make them feel vunerable, as once they let someone in, they do not want to let them go, but also makes them feel satisfied with the connection they have made. This is an ongoing internal conflict of contradictions inside the Capricorn's mind.
Capricorns always have something they are pursuing, wanting their lives to be fulfilled and important, as they are very ambitious. They will wait a long time for something, as they are extremely patient, planning their steps carefully when opportunities arise, ensuring that they reach their goals, which sometimes makes them seem hesitant which is not true - they just don't want to jump in at the deep end! With strong powers of concentration, they have a very active mind, but are very cautious and tread carefully. They like change but only when introduced slowly, so it can be incorporated into their lives. Capricorns tend to see life in black or white, definitive's only. There are no gray areas for these are areas that are not understood and this makes Capricorn feel uncomfortable. They tend to be in control in a romantic relationship that way they are never vulnerable to another person.
