Born on January 5: Capricorn
On January 5, the Sun is in Capricorn: that is your Sun sign, the core of your identity, your vitality and the way you shine.
Your sign: Capricorn
With the Sun in Capricorn, you climb the mountain one step at a time, and you always arrive where you decided to go.
Saturn, master of time and structure, rules your Sun in Capricorn and gives you an identity built on responsibility, ambition and endurance. You were often mature before your years, aware very early that serious things are built with effort and patience. You don’t look for shortcuts: you look for what lasts. Someone with the Sun in Capricorn has a deep sense of duty and a rare ability to delay gratification for a bigger goal. You’re the person people lean on when things get serious, and your calm in difficulty inspires lasting respect.
Your decan: 2nd decan of Capricorn
Venus softens the rock of the second decan of Capricorn: you are elegant loyalty, ambition that loves and builds for two.
Born between about January 1 and 9, on a date that varies with the year and time of birth, you belong to the second decan of Capricorn, colored by Venus. Saturnian rigor turns gentler, more sociable, more sensitive to beauty here: you’re the Capricorn who loves beautiful things that last, solid relationships, earned and refined pleasures. Your ambition stays intact, but it serves an art of living and a stable emotional life. Less austere than the first decan, you know how to seduce with restraint and create bonds that withstand both time and wear.
