About
Capricorn is the tenth sign of the zodiac and is symbolized by the Sea-Goat — a mythical creature with the body of a goat and the tail of a fish. This symbol has ancient roots, linked to the Sumerian god Enki, who ruled over water and wisdom. The Capricorn constellation was formally documented by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. Capricorns are often seen as determined, responsible, and deeply ambitious.
