Capricorn is the tenth sign of the zodiac: an earth sign associated with Saturn, from about December 21 to January 20. This page is a sun-sign magazine hub — traits, love, work, and friendship as entertainment, not a natal chart or a verdict on anyone’s life.

Capricorn traits

Capricorn energy is endurance. The goat would rather climb, wait, and finish than sprint a short hill. That patience can look like responsibility, or like distance. For more depth, read Capricorn personality and Capricorn traits. Capricorn sits with Taurus and Virgo as an earth sign.

Capricorn in love

In romance, Capricorn usually wants loyalty, proof, and a life that can actually last. Warmth can be quiet; jealousy can still show. Start with Capricorn in love, then Capricorn woman or Capricorn man if you want those portraits on their own.

Capricorn at work

At work, Capricorn often wants a real finish line, not applause. They will take the long route if it leads to a title they can keep. Capricorn as a boss or coworker covers that side.

Capricorn friendship and family

Friends get loyalty more than a crowd. Family is something they try to run well. See Capricorn friendship, plus Capricorn parents and Capricorn child when that is the actual question.
