ENERGY PATTERN
Each of the 12 Signs of the Zodiac represents specific energy patterns, or modes of expression. They act as modifiers of the elements with which they are associated, be it a Planet or a House. Capricorn is self-discipline and austerity seeking integrity and moral courage.

INFLUENCE OF THE PLANET
Those born under Capricorn and Aquarius are the Saturn type. You have a small head, beady and deep-set eyes, with prominent ears and nose. You have a weak set of teeth, and thin and lifeless hair. Slow in movement, you are conservative and methodical with serious outlook. Deeply faithful, you also have a sense of duty. However, you are not sociable and prefer solitude.

DECAN INSIGHT
Each zodiac sign extends across 30 degree of the Zodiac. These can be further subdivided into three decans of 10 degree each. Therefore, though all those born under a particular sign are classified under the same sign, the decans yield further insight into your total personality.You reach out to people. Use your contacts and influence well. News, media, communications not only just interest you, they shape your life and your thinking as well as your choice of profession and success in it, in safe and concrete way.

LOVE MYSTERY
Capricornians are not the greatest of lovers. They are more the providers, craving security themselves and providing it for their mates. You are really not up to showering attention on people. You are conscientious, but a little too dry for romance. The solid benefits are all very well - such as home, financial security, comfort, position, children - in fact all the good things of life. But there has to be a little romance, a little bit of tender loving care also. Learn to give. Your inbuilt inhibitions need some emotional release. Learn to live life fully. Give the persons in your life attention, reassurance and love also. Just being conscientious is not enough. Get involved with life!

SEXUAL CHARACTERISTICS
Sex plays an important role in the life of every man and woman. It lies at the root of life, and we can never learn to revere life until we know how to understand sex. Indian astrological science attributes certain sexual characteristics to persons according to the sign under which they have been born.You are ascetic in your ways towards your partner, and in sex as well. You make a good partner, but are rather cold and sparing in your sex life.

AS A FRIEND
You will be faithful and reliable once the initial hurdles are crossed. You are not too polished or very tactful or you may have an unfortunate tendency to snobbery which you ought to try to overcome.

COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER SIGNS
The following section tells you about your compatibility with other zodiac signs in friendship, business, family or love relationships. The basic foundation will remain unchanged, though mutual aspects between planets will modify the relationship to a certain extent in a positive or a negative way.

Ideal Association (5-9 Sun Sign Pattern): Taurus and Virgo
Not always, but surprisingly often, the extraordinary magnetism of 5-9 Sun sign attraction leads to easy sympathy, mental stimulation, emotional affinity, romantic fulfillment. There will be a strong sympathy between you and misunderstandings will not be severe or lasting. The chances for harmony are excellent, and a happy relationship on a permanent basis is more effortlessly achieved than with any other sign - be it friendship, business, family or love relationships. Hostile placement of planets between the two horoscopes will cause some personality clashes and tensions - causing the compatibility to rock from time to time - although the basic empathy and understanding will always remain. If the planets are in harmonious aspect, your relationships with these people will be most extraordinarily happy, smooth and sympathetic.

Ideal Association with some Problems (7-7 Sun Sign Pattern): Cancer
Not always, but frequently, you either get physically attracted to or secretly admire and respect each other - in case of opposite sex. The individual possesses the qualities of character and personality traits you yourself lack. The urge to imitate will be strong. However, in case of same sex, you may become strongly competitive and feel uneasy or envious. Mutual aspects between other planets somewhat modify the relationship positively or negatively.

Compassionate Association (2-12 Sun Sign Pattern): Aquarius
In your association with this individual, one of you will feel that he or she has many lessons to learn from the other. The one who has lessons to teach will feel an inexplicable compassion for the weaknesses and mistakes of the other person, strangely understanding the other's markedly different motives and behavior.

Favorable Association (3-11 Sun Sign Pattern): Scorpio and Pisces
You will feel a strong tie of friendship, whatever the association you share with these individuals. Mutual trust and ease of communication mark the relationship. In spite of strong differences, you connect closely with each other. A sense of responsibility and some sort of inescapable duty will bring you together. You will constantly stimulate each other into changing habits and existing situations. Any quarrels will usually be quickly resolved, forgiven and forgotten. Even when the association seems to be a closed chapter, it reappears months or years later, to be resumed once more.

Beneficial Association (6-8 Sun Sign Pattern): Gemini and Leo
There will be some problem in communication. Yet you will be powerfully drawn into each other. Irresistible sexual attraction in case of a love relationship. In case of friendship, business or family ties, attraction through some shared interest. Urge for mutual help. Service given will always be repaid. In some way, a great benefit will come from one to the other through the relationship, and the one who serves will usually remain loyal.

Reflective Association (1-1 Sun Sign Pattern): Capricorn
You will each be tempted to magnify your own virtues and failings. All the positive character traits will be intensified - as will the negative traits. A constant effort should be made to encourage in one another the positive qualities of the zodiac sign you both share and to discourage the negative ones.

Unfavorable Association (4-10 Sun Sign Pattern): Aries and Libra
Not always, but surprisingly often, you will feel a noticeable tension or conflict of personality in the presence of these individuals. One of you may grow restless because of the strict disciplinary attempts of the other. For various reasons, there will always be some mental and emotional restriction.
