Capricorns are serious-minded people who often seem aloof and tightly in control of their emotions and their personal domain. They are not the ones who seek limelight; rather they make up the audience that admires. They are like the tortoise, which moves slowly and still wins the race. A Capricorn finds it extremely easy to merge into a group and will look like one of its original members. He always seems to be surrounded by an air of melancholy and seriousness. He has a soothing voice, pleasant appearance and a convincing personality.

A Capricorn's characteristics profile exhibits his quality of keeping the eyes fixed on the aim. A Capricorn does not daydream. He is above envy, obsession, recklessness, rage, abuse, idleness and negligence. As far as he is concerned, all these things are obstacles in the way of success. He is very romantic, but emotions do not make him oblivious of the practicalities of life. Unrestrained passions and emotions make him uncomfortable.

They are true workers-industrious, efficient, and disciplined. Their innate common sense gives them the ability to plan ahead and to work out practical ways of approaching goals. More often than not, they succeed at whatever they set out to do.
