The temperament
What Capricorn is like
Evergreen
Capricorn, in plain terms
Capricorn is cardinal earth: it builds. You take the long view, you're willing to do the unglamorous work now for the payoff later, and you carry more than you let on.
Ruled by Saturn, you respect structure, time, and earned things. The work is letting the mountain be enough sometimes — that rest and being are not the opposite of achievement.
The hard part
Named, not flattered
The growth edge
What Capricorn has to watch
You can mistake your usefulness for your worth, and grind long past the point of return because stopping feels like failing. The armour that got you here also keeps people out.
