Organizing life is a skill. Organizing a life when things are changing constantly is more than a skill; it’s an art and it’s one that it is important for you to learn. You probably started out thinking that there would be a single plan. Now that you’ve learned that a new plan is far more exciting than a single one, being able to embrace change is the skill.
Putting work I love first is easy; doing what I must boosts my self-worth
While most Capricorns are rightly proud of being born under your sign, and even more, of your nature—that is, your willingness to work hard, but also your practical generosity and earthy humor—there is another side, too. This element of your nature can almost always find something to worry about, or can experience feelings that go up and down. Alternatively, you’re always a bit concerned about things going as they should.
This side of your nature is related to the part that can dwell on life’s doubts, and recognizes stability as a way to avoid those. However, the fact is—and something for you to remember, especially as a Capricorn and an earth sign—everything changes. The world around you changes—the seasons, the weather, plants grow. While you recognize those changes as normal and ones to be embraced, you sometimes forget that the seasons in your own life, the ups and downs, are normal. Once you learn to recognize and welcome them, your perspective will improve.
Instead of being anxious when changes arise, you won’t just embrace them, it will be with enthusiasm, knowing that something exciting is coming your way and that you’re prepared for it. The more optimistic you are, and the more creative you’re feeling, the more exciting your embrace of the new will be.
Bouncing ideas off of others isn’t just wise, it opens up a new world to you. Often, you will retreat to figure out plans, then discuss what you have decided, hoping for their approval. However, with the foundation on which many arrangements are based shifting regularly, the more closely you work with others, the more you will learn.
When you feel unwell, you will often head off to the gym or figure out the best-possible diet. However, those unsettled feelings may have to do with the simple fact that your world is changing and so is your life. These ups and downs are nothing more than your body becoming accustomed to a new way of living, thinking, and doing things.
Organizing life is a skill. Organizing a life when things are changing constantly is more than a skill; it’s an art and it’s one that it is important for you to learn. You probably started out thinking that there would be a single plan. Now that you’ve learned that a new plan is far more exciting than a single one, being able to embrace change is the skill.
This is one of those exceptionally tricky periods during which what begins as a modest exchange of ideas could burst into a contentious disagreement within moments. The real issue is unspoken tensions. For now, say nothing. This is likely to blow over as swiftly as it surfaced.
Capricorn: DECEMBER 21 – JANUARY 19
Ruler: Saturn
Symbol: The Goat
Element: Earth
Flower: Pansy
As a practical earth sign, whose symbol is the horned goat, you can achieve the impossible, in the form of ascending a mountain, or attaining an ambition. Being ruled by hardy Saturn, you’re discreet about your many kindnesses, but glory in your tough exterior. Your flower is the pansy; your plants are hemp and ivy; your trees, elm and yew. Your stones are symbolic of winter’s dark days—black pearls, black diamonds, and jet.
