The stones of the zodiac sign CAPRICORN

Characteristics of Capricorn

The zodiac sign of Capricorn is the tenth of the 12 signs, it is a cardinal earth sign, ruled by Saturn.

Those born under this sign stand out for their ability to set clear goals and work with patience and determination to achieve them. Nothing scares them: obstacles are simply challenges to be overcome with method and perseverance. Their practical nature makes them extremely reliable, people you can count on in times of difficulty.

They tend to be reserved, almost protective of their inner world. They don't like to open up straight away and build relationships slowly, but once they gain their trust they become loyal friends and devoted partners. At work, Capricorn is disciplined and tireless, always focused on the long term. However, this commitment can lead them to neglect the lighter and more carefree side of life.

Their irony is often subtle and biting, the result of an acute and reflective mind. They have a realistic outlook on the world, which helps them remain steadfast even in the most complex moments. However, this pragmatism can lead to pessimism, causing them to fear failure or be overly critical of themselves.

In love and relationships, they are stable and concrete. They are not inclined to great romantic impulses, but demonstrate their affection with tangible actions. Capricorn is a builder, both in their professional and personal lives, but they need to learn to enjoy the journey and not just the destination. Behind their practical and sometimes austere armor, lies a heart that longs for love and recognition, even if it doesn't easily admit it.
