Capricorn is the most serious sign of the zodiac. He can and loves to plan everything, and first of all his own life. Young Capricorns form clear ideas while still in their youth about what they are to do and when. For example: first study, then work, then family, children, promotion and so on. Strange as it may seem, many of them manage to accomplish everything they planned. This is a pragmatic and cautious sign. His talents show themselves vividly within a well-established structure, in administrative work. They are very ambitious and do everything possible to occupy the upper rungs of the social ladder. A young Capricorn who has just entered service is a model of diligence. The highest authority for him is the management. He takes well to assignments with clear deadlines and needs a defined circle of duties. He does not object to overtime if his superiors duly appreciate it. Thanks to his zeal in service he rises gradually and purposefully. Capricorn has a very good sense of his place in a structure. He knows the rules by which he works. And no requests or personal relationships will make him depart from them. One of Capricorn's favourite answers is: «I am acting by the regulations» - and that cuts off any objection. Having taken a managerial post, Capricorn will first of all turn his attention to strengthening the structure of the enterprise and to ways of making its work more efficient. He develops flexible systems of accounting and control. The decisions he takes are not open to discussion and are conveyed to subordinates in the form of orders or instructions. Capricorns are conservative and reluctant to use anything new in their work. Nevertheless, the systems he creates are remarkably durable and effective.
