 Capricorn
is the negative sign of Saturn, cardinal earth,
the knees of the Cosmic Man, a crocodile. As
sign no. 10, it shows the state of power, order
and complete organization.
Capricorn is often the lowest and the highest of
the signs in terms of achievement in life. It is
the sign of practical realization. On the
material level, this can create much worldliness
and obstinacy and make people selfish.
Less evolved Capricorn types may be sons of the
earth, farmers who know little beyond their
farm. Somewhat more evolved is the hard headed
Capricornian businessman who saves everything
for some eventual great gain. On the spiritual
level, Capricorn can give the capacity to
manifest spiritual principles in daily life and
practical work.
Capricorn types are hardworking, persevering,
tenacious and have the power for eventual great
accomplishments. They usually have to work for
themselves and learn to value everything that
comes through their own effort. They start
slowly in life, often encounter many obstacles
along the way, but thereby create the energy for
long term success.
They are ambitious but often narrow in their
goals and rigid or cutting in their opinions.
They can be shrewd at business and are often
good in science and technology, with a strong
mathematical sense. They tend to be traditional
and may have much past life karma in traditional
and oriental cultures.
Capricorn born natives often need to learn more
self-surrender, to take themselves less
seriously and to be less concerned about the
outer form of things. They are often detached
from their emotions, either by lower sensate or
higher intellectual or spiritual values, or by
conventionality or just being caught in the
senses. |
