Capricorn The Goat
December 22 – January 19
Like Taurus, Capricorn is also an earth sign, and also symbolized by an animal, this time the goat. Capricorn people are often serious, disciplined people who appreciate hard work and authority. They like to "get things done" and make sure people they work with understand this. They are more practical than dreamers, and make excellent entrepreneurs. In the tough business world, they more often succeed than fail.

As can be seen in this exclusive Black Onyx Capricorn Pendant Zodiac Sign Amulets are beautifully represented in Onyx Jewelry. Capricorn is the tenth astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Capricornus.
In western astrology, this sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. In astrology, Capricorn is considered a "feminine", negative (introvert) sign. It is also considered an earth sign and one of the four cardinal signs. Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn. Being the tenth sign of the zodiac, Capricorn has been associated with the astrological tenth house.
Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered Capricorn individuals. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun enters Capricorn by definition at the moment of winter solstice, or roughly at December 22, and leaves it around January 19. Under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently there roughly from January 15 to February 15. The Sanskrit name of Capricorn in Hindu astrology is Makara.
Capricorn is sometimes depicted as a sea-goat, and sometimes as a terrestrial goat. The reasons for this are unknown, but the image of a sea-goat goes back at least to Babylonian times.
