Personality Traits of Capricorn: Our birthday greetings to all Capricorns ­ one of the most hardworking yet misunderstood signs of the Zodiac. Ruled by Saturn, those born under this sign seem to be working and struggling so much that they often represent just a "cash register" to the family! Although there are Capricorns who can really procrastinate (especially if they have Venus in luxury loving Sagittarius), they usually become workaholics and accumulate many assets in order to sublimate their emotions. They have a strong need to lead a structured and disciplined life. Many powerful industrialists and entrepreneurs were born under this sign. The symbol of Capricorn is the mountain goat, constantly striving to reach the top.

Capricorns like to learn by application of knowledge rather than through reading and theoretical discussions. They usually learn the hard way but their experience is very dependable. They make tough taskmasters but need to develop some humour (although they do have a dry wit). They can become too much bound by responsibilities and duty.

In love, Venus in Capricorn is caring but not demonstrative in an obvious manner. They like material assets like big houses and mahogany furniture. Capricorns tend to be rather lonely eagles and should spend time on social activities instead of just work. Their life is like "Sunshine after tears" but it would be in their longterm interest to enjoy the sunshine a little earlier!
