“A Love Letter to Our CAPRICORN”
Dear Capricorn,
With competitive advantages rooted in persistence and tenacity, your gifts inspire others to achieve the impossible. This resounding influence is contagious, encouraging the rest of the world to invest in their own potential with conviction and emotional devotion. As the winter solstice represents an opportunity to align your visions for the future, now marks a beautiful time to focus on what requires nurturing, healing, and growth. While prioritizing ourselves becomes our greatest ritual, remember to communicate the authentic truths that exist beneath that stoic exterior of yours. After all, your inner compass enables you to create a reality rooted in both wisdom and practicality.
May the stars guide you home,
Stephanie & Team FUTURA

CAPRICORN IN HISTORY
In Greek mythology, the legend of Capricorn arises from the God Pan’s transformation into Pricus, where he exchanges his goat legs for a fish tail in order to flee from the giant monster, Typhon, as he escapes by diving into the river.
Goal-oriented
“Will you respect the architecture I build around my highest self, acknowledging the grace of my drive?” contemplates the goal-oriented Capricorn. Ruled by hardworking Saturn, Capricorn represents the ragged, chilly mountaintop where the archetype of the mountain-sea goat keeps scaling (and spiritually swimming) to the top of the hill, unphased by the incoming challenges on their way to the top.
A keen, analytical eye accompanied by an astute focus on the end game, Capricorn holds a mindset rooted in ambition and respect for himself and the feat worth pursuing. Their grand sense of purpose and goal-oriented demeanor highlights their willpower and resolve to transform their most ambitious dreams into reality.
Their silent mantra echoes the discerning sentiments that ‘dreams forever stay an illusion unless one takes action to transform them with grit and determination’.

capricorn strengths
Capricorn energy arrives alongside the winter solstice to initiate a karmic cycle, helping us begin anew. Known as the architects of the zodiac, the Capricorn archetype appears at the top of a cliff, surveying the vast, open lands below as they contemplate the blueprint they’ll create to bring together and build their empire.
These driven hustlers don’t stop at anything to bring forth the complete crystallization and transformation of their wildest dreams, reminding us that life is finite and we must celebrate our experiences as one would a parade.
With new destinies and desires blossoming, the Capricorn strength to continue amplifies with gusto, ushering an untouchable energy that propels the initiation of our idealistic visions into full gear.
capricorn Takeaways
In the words of Paulo Coelho, “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it.” The responsibilities and sacrifices required to achieve greatness is a gentle reminder that good things take time.
With trials and tribulations sprinkled throughout the journey to test your stamina and desire for said dreams, we celebrate your tenacious spirit as you inspire us with your innate wisdom, grounding force, and raw dedication to build and expand.
You’ll soon begin to carve a beautiful world for yourself that invites others to share in your accomplishments and success…if you allow them to. When challenges or the weight of your responsibilities arise, contemplate and celebrate previous accomplishments (however small you may deem them), reminding yourself that the journey is as rewarding as the end goal.
