Capricorn Rashi
Makar is the tenth of the 12 rashis, an Earth sign of cardinal quality ruled by Saturn. Makar natives are disciplined, hardworking and ambitious, climbing steadily and surely to the top.
Lucky colour, number and direction come from Capricorn's ruler, Saturn. Your rashi is your moon sign, found from your birth details, not the calendar date.
The Capricorn personality
Makar natives are disciplined, practical and steadily fixed on their goal. Under Saturn, they carry patience, responsibility and the strength to win the long race. They do not chase small wins but want the whole summit. That seriousness can turn into coldness, worry or overwork, but when they pair their effort with a little warmth, they do their finest work.

Capricorn man and woman
Below is the general nature of Capricorn men and women, across temperament, career, love and health.
Capricorn Man
Serious, responsible and hardworking, he says little but shows it through his work. Dependable and ambitious, though he must temper a cold edge and too much worry.
Management, administration, engineering and construction, law, finance and government work suit him. Where steady effort and responsibility are needed, he reaches the top step by step.
Loyal and steady, though slow to show his love. With a little warmth and openness, the bond grows deep and lasting.
Capricorn rules the knees and bones. Watch joint pain and weakness in the knees and bones. Rest amid work and some sunlight keep his health sound.
Capricorn Woman
Hardworking, responsible and self-reliant, she makes her name on her own. Serious and sensible, though she watches too much worry and being hard on herself.
She shines in administration, finance, teaching, law and her own business, wherever discipline and responsibility meet.
Loyal, serious and wanting a lasting bond. A partner who respects her effort and ambition suits her best. A little openness keeps the bond light.
The knees and bones are sensitive. Watch joint pain and weak bones. Regular exercise and calcium-rich food keep her health good.
Which signs match Capricorn
Capricorn is a Earth sign. This general compatibility is by rashi (moon sign) only; a precise match needs the full Ashtakoot guna-milan of both charts.
Best matches
Earth's steadiness and Water's feeling both support Capricorn's effort.
Needs effort
Fire's haste and Air's restlessness, and the pull of fellow cardinal signs, can clash with Capricorn's patience.
Capricorn career and money
Career
Capricorn's effort and discipline bloom in work with responsibility, patience and long-term planning. Management and administration, finance and banking, engineering and construction, law, and government or their own business suit them. They start slow but end up at the very top.
Money
Capricorn handle money with thought and saving. They dislike waste. Wealth grows slowly but surely, and they set aside for a rainy day. Learning to spend when needed, and on themselves too, makes them more balanced.
