December 22 - January 19
In this post we explore the origin story of the mighty Capricorn, a glorious goat-fish has strong ambitions and high expectations of their friends and family. The Capricornus constellation origin story is one of determination and perseverance. According to Greek myth, Pan, the goat God of Nature, battled and lost against the Typhon, the personification of volcanic forces. He leaped into the Nile river and was transformed into a goat fish. Represented by the Horned Goat, Capricorns are ambitious and practical people. They ensure that emotions will not get in the way of their ambitions, but will not take criticism well. Get on their good side with a bribe, er, gift. Capricorns were born around the holidays, so be extra generous to your fav Cap. They deserve it!
