Cardinal Earth at work
Capricorn is Cardinal Earth. Cardinal signs take the lead and Earth wants real, lasting results, so Capricorn is the zodiac's builder of careers and institutions. You think in years rather than weeks, and you know how to climb a ladder one rung at a time. You often end up in charge because people trust you to keep things running.
Capricorn strengths at work
Discipline, strategy and staying power. Capricorn can set a five-year goal and actually follow it, carry responsibility without fuss and stay steady when the market or the team wobbles. You also have a dry wit that makes long hours easier for everyone around you.
Capricorn blind spots at work
Workaholism is the classic risk. Capricorn can tie its worth to its title, skip vacations and expect others to work at its pace. You may also be slow to try new methods while the old ones still work. Building rest into the plan, as you would any other milestone, protects your long game.
