Sun in Capricorn, Moon in Capricorn

With both the Sun and the Moon in Capricorn, the qualities of this sign come through in your character with double strength. You are a tireless worker, and work is the center of your life. You take great responsibility for anything you undertake, and finishing what you have started matters to you, whatever it takes. Your ability to plan, organize and share out responsibilities is a gift in its own right. You make your decisions after careful preparation, unhurriedly and thoroughly, and you carry them out with purpose, perseverance and patience.

You are faithful and steady, and people can always rely on you. When you are in charge, you tend to lead through firm instructions and directives and to keep a close eye on how they are carried out. People trust your authority because you give yourself fully to your work.

Your life energy expresses itself in a sober, clear and well-planned way. You have no wish to put your efforts on display and prefer to stay in the background.

You show your joy with restraint, as if you are not quite sure you can trust it yet, and you are not easily fooled. You tend to see the darker side of things, and from time to time melancholy and low moods settle over you, so it helps to remember that hard moments pass and to let people you trust cheer you up.

You tend to worry about big things and small ones alike. You are very serious and determined. Your career is an important part of your life, and you rise through the ranks slowly but surely. You have great respect for professionalism and work hard to become a true professional in your field. Your ambition is strong. You have great stamina and an excellent ability to concentrate. Your principles grow out of a deep respect for the law in all its forms, and for you a principle is a rule to be followed faithfully. Before you decide anything, you weigh it all and think it over a thousand times. You feel most at home in a working environment, where activities are clearly planned.

Anything that touches your plans, your work or your career is a sensitive spot for you. Deep down you like having clear guidelines, and following them makes you feel more comfortable. Food and sleep are not a priority for you. When you are busy, you may simply forget to eat and hardly mind, and your body deserves the same care you give your work. You tend to organize the way you care for others, following a plan you have made in advance. Your habits are hard to change. You feel uneasy when your plans suddenly fall apart, and finding your bearings in such moments can be difficult, so reminding yourself that most plans can be adjusted helps. At home you like to keep things in order by handing out tasks and checking that they are done on time, and letting your family set their own pace now and then can bring more warmth. You show your feelings in a reserved, matter-of-fact way and have little taste for stormy displays.

You are modest and careful with money.

You like your rest to be linked with work whenever possible, ideally with a chance to meet people in senior positions who can help your career. You relax while planning a strategy for the future. Your conscious aims and your inner needs work in harmony, both directed toward organizing the world around you and keeping its processes under control. Practicality and solidity can run very high, while flexibility and open emotion may come less easily, and allowing yourself a little more play and feeling can make life lighter. This combination tends to sit more easily in a man's chart, while in a woman's chart it can make adapting to others quite hard.

The classic view

Your force arises from your self-control, and you will accumulate power directly in proportion as you accumulate self-discipline.
