Capricorn Traits and Star Sign Personality

Do you know the traits of a Capricorn? As the zodiac’s tenth sign, Capricorn traits include ambition, drive and leadership. Understanding Capricorn traits can help you get along with this sign in love, work and life.

What are Capricorn traits?

Have you ever met someone who was successful, an over-achiever and even a little bit uptight? Chances are, this person was a Capricorn, the sign born between December 22-January 19. Learning the Capricorn star sign personality and Capricorn traits can help you coexist in harmony with this zodiac sign, which can be loyal and family-minded but also pessimistic and unforgiving.

Chief among the traits of a Capricorn is their fierce drive for success. Capricorns are strong-minded and mature, and they are always on their A-game. They are competitive and love a challenge, and love when a solid structure is put into place. Ruled by taskmaster Saturn, a Capricorn is incredibly disciplined and will always ensure that a project, no matter how big or small, is seen through to its completion. Capricorn is the sign of the slow and steady Mountain Goat. As the ruler of the zodiac’s tenth house, Capricorns can be highly career-focused.

What kind of person is Capricorn?

Capricorn is a leadership-oriented cardinal sign and a stabilizing earth sign. Many Capricorns secretly wish to be able to take care of everything themselves and can often work themselves to the bone as a result. At times, a Capricorn can be materialistic and even snobbish, acting as though they know more than anyone else. They can also be extremely generous, however, sweeping in heroically for their loved ones, since the tenth house rules men and father figures.

While some of the traits of the Capricorn sign can make them seem overbearing and difficult at times, their ambition and desire for what is good and right makes them admirable, if not an inspiration.
