The Myth of the Sea-Goat
In Greek mythology, Capricorn is associated with the figure of Pan, the god of the wild. To escape the monster Typhon, Pan jumped into a river, attempting to turn himself into a fish. Only his lower half transformed, resulting in the mythical sea-goat—a creature with the head and body of a goat and the tail of a fish. This symbolizes Capricorn's ability to navigate both the material mountains of success and the emotional depths.
