But theres so much more that goes into being Capricorn than that. Not to mention, there are plenty of other astrological factors that make up your personality beyond your Sun sign (a.k.a. the sign you use when checking your horoscope). You've got your natal and progressed charts , your moon sign , your Saturn return , just to name a few. Still, being a Capricorn zodiac sign says **a lot** about you.
Especially now that Capricorn season is on (it goes from December 22 through January 19), it's go time for the inner horned goats of the world. You probably have some kind of sense of what being a Cap is all about, thanks to your monthly horoscope, but there are some basics about your sign that every informed Capricorn should know.
These are the five biggest signs youre a Capricorn, plus how it can impact your overall life, according to Donna Page , a certified astrologer in Atlanta.
1. Youre loyal AF...
When you commit to someone, whether its a friend or lover, you show up Every. Single. Time. The people who matter in your life know they can count on you and, tbh, its one of the personality traits they love most about you. Also, having someone who will be there for you on the reg is pretty amazing, so go you, Cap!
Btw, you're in some pretty awesome company with all these cool Capricorn celebs:
2. But you can come across as a little standoffish at first.
Since you go all-in when making a commitment to someone, you can be a little, let's just say, hesitant to let new people into your inner circle. (It's a pretty cool place to be, after all.) Are they really worth your undying love and devotion? Theyre going to have to prove it to you first.
3. You hate being late.
Like heat-of-a-thousand-burning-suns-level hate. When you care about someone, you always show up on time (unless, you know, theres a major emergency or Beyonc sighting on your block). Once you say youll be somewhere, youre thereusually a bit early. On the flip side, it totally pisses you off if someone doesnt show you the same respect (because hello, rude!).
4. Youve got a planand a backup planfor everything.
You have this amazing ability to see all the scenarios that can play out in different situations, which is a pretty cool superpower. Buuut on the other hand, that can make you worry about all the bad sh*t that could maybe-potentially-hypothetically happen. (Um, snowball much?) You have to work hard to catch yourself before getting totally carried away with the what-ifs.
5. You're a total turtle in relationships.
Slow and steady wins the race, amirite? For Caps, time is a big (huge!) factor when it comes to connecting with others. After all, how can you really know if someone is right for you if you havent been through different seasons and life situations with them?
Youre super hesitant to commit to someone without some solid time passing first, which can be tough for a potential love interest to wrap their head around. Once you do commit though, youre all in. Good things come to those who wait.
