Personality & Traits
A Capricorn's ambition is not loud or flashy; it is a steady, unwavering drive. They are the master planners of the zodiac, building their dreams one careful step at a time. Their Saturnine influence makes them wise beyond their years, valuing tradition, structure, and earned success. While they may appear reserved, they possess deep loyalty and a dry, witty sense of humor for those they trust.
Their symbol, the Sea-Goat, perfectly encapsulates their nature: ambitious and climbing towards lofty goals (the goat) while being deeply intuitive and sensitive beneath a composed exterior (the fish's tail).
Capricorn in Arabic: برج الجدي
The Arabic name for Capricorn is "Burj al-Jady" (برج الجدي), which translates directly to "The Goat." This reflects the terrestrial part of the symbol, emphasizing the sign's steadfast and climbing nature in Arab astrological tradition.
