Symbolism & Mythology
The symbol of the Sea-Goat is unique, blending the sure-footed mountain goat with the tail of a fish. This represents Capricorn's ability to navigate both the material world (the mountain) and the emotional depths (the sea). In mythology, it is often associated with Pan, the god who transformed into a sea-goat to escape a monster, symbolizing resourcefulness and the ability to thrive in any environment.
