Capricorn is a cardinal earth sign ruled by Saturn, and the tradition links it with structure, responsibility, work and long-term goals. Astrologers read solar eclipses near the north node as emphatic beginnings. With a retrograde Mercury close by, the tradition favors reviewing plans before launching them, and Jupiter's square is read as tension between ambition and limits. A practical suggestion: revisit an existing goal and set one realistic next step.
