The Mythological Blend
The Sea-Goat is a creature of both land and sea. In mythology, it highlights Capricorn's dual nature: grounded in reality (the goat on the mountain) yet profoundly intuitive and emotional (the tail in the ocean depths). This sign understands structure and ambition while being in touch with the unseen currents of feeling and instinct.
