Sun in Capricorn Astrology - The Capricorn Desire For Accomplishment and Respect

One of the issues a CapricornCapricorn and aquarius will face sometime in their life is the concern around their reputation, what they think they 'should" do or are "supposed" to accomplish, and the ensuing commitments, regrets and resentments. Just as other signs have a fated aspect to their astrology chart, one of the fated aspects for Capricorn is a concern of not appearing as a fool and being respected by people they engage with in their lives. The fear of being caught in a situation they can't handle can translate into not wanting to take risks to avoid any potential shame or embarrassment.

Astrologers assign to Capricorns the planet Saturn, the planet of duty, responsibilities, and hard work. Many times the Capricorn will have embedded within their belief system that success that comes easy isn't success; that one must work hard for success and go through society's standards of what determines success. This can translate into getting a degree from a well respected school. If the Capricorn can not afford the ivy league school or is not accepted into top rated schools they may feel frustrated and notice others who have degrees from the Ivy Leagues appear to have an unfair advantage.

Since Capricorns are attuned to time better than the rest of us they can be good at planning for their future, if they are not in a position to set aside money for their future they will have a tendency to worry about it. This leads to the bag lady syndrome, what if I end up at the end of my life with nothing, like the old lady on the street corner hauling her bags? Because of the inner conditioning and worry element that is so natural for Capricorn I believe it is imperative that they just cover the bases to give them the feeling of security they crave. This can be done through well accepted avenues such as setting up retirement accounts and having insurance policies for any possible disasters they could worry about so they can set aside those concerns and concentrate on the present.

Capricorn rocks when she is focused on a plan of action and working step by step towards her goal. The crises in a Capricorns life will be when they reach the top of the proverbial mountain they have been climbing and look around and discover it was someone else's mountain they worked so hard to get to the top of. Many times the Capricorn adopts the standards and ideals of the society around them when they are young; what mom and dad think they would be good at, what the school counselor tells them they should do, or what appears to be most respected profession from the media. When this happens a crises of faith occurs when they reexamine just whose life they are living.

The inner parent is a constant companion for the Capricorn, what they should or should not be doing. When the Capricorn begins to really listen to their inner voice on a conscious level they will hear a parental voice telling them everything they "should" be doing. It is important for Capricorn to question that inner voice and talk back; why should I? Who are you to tell me what I should and should not do? Many times the answer is an outdated lecture heard over and over from an authority figure from years before.

As a Capricorn commitments take on a whole new meaning, if a commitment is accepted out of duty or obligation then resentment can follow. Regrets and resentments can eat away at the Capricorn who has not examined their life and made sure it was one of their choosing and not one that adopted because it was what was expected of them. A happy Capricorn is one who can look at the time line of life, past and future, yet be grounded in the present with no regrets or resentments.
