CAPRICORN RISING

You have delicate health in your early years, when you're also sensitive, inarticulate and timid, with a feeling of inadequacy. You overcome these through sheer necessity. You have great ambition and determination and you give yourself no peace until you achieve the high goals you set for yourself. Money and position are important to you. You're ethical, righteous and dutiful, but the reserve in your make-up usually appears as coldness. As a child, you fall and scrape your knees a lot due to poor physical coordination. Any trouble with your knees is an outer manifestation of an inner inability to be flexible and flowing.
