Capricorn is careful, prudent, calculating and persevering. Goats like order and steady progress all the while keeping an eye on getting to the top. They are never in a hurry, but they will never give up till they achieve what they set out to do. In doing so they could easily be cold and calculating, even ruthless, but for Capricorn that's just the price to pay for being right up the dizzy heights in their career. Security is precious to Goats, and their inherent discipline and business sense helps them direct their energies towards its social symbols: prestige and status. Goats are serious people, not given to sharing their deepest emotions and thoughts, and so are frequently seen as heartless achievers. Yet, they possess a dry wit that easily lightens up the party. Their saturnine qualities of wisdom, love of solitude, and economy of words earns them plenty of respect but few friends. They usually fit in well in careers that require mathematical skills or organisation, and in positions of critical responsibility.
