♑︎ Capricorn
Capricorn begins at the December solstice, in the darkest time of the northern year. Tradition gives it patience, a sense of duty and staying power: it climbs slowly, but it reaches the top. Saturn, its ruler, stands for structure, limits and responsibility. A Capricorn often seems more serious than it is and would rather show its feelings through deeds. Its task is to give support without becoming hard.
♒︎ Aquarius
Traditionally, Aquarius is the sign of the new and of community. It thinks independently, values friendship above convention and often has ideas whose time has not yet come. Uranus, its modern ruler, stands for new departures and surprise. An Aquarius is there for many and lets few come close. Its task is to bring freedom and closeness together.
