Sun in Capricorn
You take the long view and you play to win. People think you’re cold until they see how far you’ll go for the few you let in.
The Sun is in Capricorn from about Dec 22 – Jan 19. If that is your birthday, this is your Sun sign.
Moon in Capricorn
You learned early to handle your feelings on your own. You’d rather be useful than comforted, which people mistake for not needing anyone.
The Moon changes sign every two to three days, so your Moon sign needs your birth date and, near a change, your birth time.
Capricorn rising
You come across as serious and capable, older than your age when you were young. People trust you with responsibility early.
The Rising sign changes every two hours. It needs your exact birth time and place, and it is the part of a chart most people have never seen.
Venus in Capricorn
You take love seriously and you don’t waste time. You’re looking for someone you can build something with.
Venus is how you love and what you value. It is never more than two signs away from your Sun.
Mars in Capricorn
You’re disciplined and patient. You don’t waste energy on fights you can’t win.
Mars is how you want, how you fight and how you get things done.
