You were born on a Saturday
under the astrological sign Capricorn.
Your Life path number is 7.
(The Life Path is the sum of the birth date. This number represents who you are at birth and the native traits that you will carry with you through life. The Life Path describes the nature of this journey through life.)
A Life Path 7 person is a peaceful and affectionate soul, and by nature rather reserved and analytical. The overwhelming strength of the number 7 is reflected in the depth of thinking that is shown; you will garner knowledge from practically every source that you find. Intellectual, scientific and studious, you don't accept a premise until you have dissected the subject and arrived at you own independent conclusion. This is a very spiritual number and it often denotes a sort of spiritual wisdom that becomes apparent at a fairly early age. You need a good deal of quiet time to be with your own inner thoughts and dreams. You dislike crowds, noise and confusion. You are very thorough and complete in your work, the perfectionist who expects everyone else to be a meet a high standard of performance, too. You evaluate situations very quickly and with amazing accuracy. You rely heavily on your experiences and your intuition, rather than accepting advice from someone; your hunches usually prove to be very accurate, and knowing this, you are one who tends to follow the directions they seem to guide. It's easy for you to detect deception and recognize insincere people. You aren't one to have a wide circle of friends, but once you accept someone as a friend, it's for life. You really aren't a very social person, and your reserve is often taken to be aloofness. Actually, it's not that at all, but merely a cover up for your basic feeling of insecurity. You actually like being alone, away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. In many ways, you would have fit in better in much earlier times when the pace of life was less hectic.
In the most negative use of the 7 energies, you can become very pessimistic, lackadaisical, quarrelsome, and secretive. A Life Path 7 individual who is not living life fully and gaining through experiences, is a hard person to live with because of a serious lack of consideration and because there is such a negative attitude. The negative 7 is very selfish and spoiled. If you have any of the negative traits they are very difficult to get rid of because you tend to feel that the world really does owe you a living or in some way is not being fairly treated. Fortunately, the negative 7 is not the typical 7, at least not without some mitigating positive traits. This number is one that seems to have some major shifts from highs to lows. Stability in feelings may be elusive for you.

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?
Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?
Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?
Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?
Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?
Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?
Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?
Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with the vacuum cleaners, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, and then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?
Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end you first try?
How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?
Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling
off the table you always manage to knock something else over?
In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we bitched about the heat?
How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?
The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best

SAGITTARIUS RISING
If your Rising Sign is in Sagittarius, happy is how people see you. Doesn't matter if you're in a foul mood, you look for all the world to be the consummate optimist, the open, friendly adventurer typified by Sagittarius. On the other hand, Sagittarians are often restless and contentious; they bore easily and sometimes pick fights for the fun of it. You give an impression of such indifference that others may say some crazy, unexpected or even hurtful things to you, expecting their comments to roll right off your back! You can't help it -- you're just exuding that characteristic Archer cool.

CAPRICORN
22 DECEMBER - 20 JANUARY
This is a sign of contrasts. There is a great potential for success in every Capricorn,
although sometimes they refuse to recognize it and their outlook can be pessimistic, so the potential
may remain undeveloped. On the one hand, some members of this sign are ambitious and aspiring,
with the energy and the will to succeed in whatever task they set themselves to do; on the other, there are those who may have the desire to do well, but are hindered by inhibition and lack of self-confidence (sometimes disguised by a feigned laziness).
Basic Personality
Both types of Capricorn are conventional and could sometimes even be called slaves to convention; they want always to be seen to do "the right thing". Both have a splendidly offbeat sense of humor, vividly contrasting with a strong tendency to grumble. Both are prudent and methodical. Sometimes the successful Capricorn achievers suffer a lack of confidence, while the less confident and successful may snap out of their negativity and make themselves enjoy life in a remarkably light-hearted way. One of the most endearing characteristics is the dour sense of humor already mentioned: even at their most serious and formal, this can suddenly erupt. Patience is one of their virtues, as is insight, but the less self-confident may not believe this and should be persuaded to develop the ability and rely on it in long-term planning. Confident, aspiring Capricorns are usually very disciplined, but again lack of self-confidence can result in their discipline being thrown to the winds. It is not easy to find lovable, tender traits in a Sun sign Capricorn. Fortunately, this is only one side of the character; other elements in the full birth chart will without doubt add warmth to this apparently rather chilly personality.
Partnership
Capricorns abhor starting married life in a garret and may postpone emotional commitment until they are firmly established in a career - perhaps quite late in life. They may then choose someone who is a parent figure, or at least commands admiration and respect. They can also marry for money or social status. They have a rather low emotional level and may find it hard to show their true feelings, especially in intimate relationships. They should realize this tendency, and accept that very often their partners need reassurance that they are still loved, especially if the Capricorn is much involved with a career and time at home is at a premium.
Family
Capricorn children are very loyal and need to express natural pride in their parents, who in turn must realize that these children are highly conventional, and need a secure, structured and disciplined background. They also need well-reasoned encouragement - one of the best rewards is extra responsibility and pocket money. Their self-confidence, sense of fun and especially their sheer enjoyment of life need constant bolstering if they aren't to grow too serious and old before their time. It shouldn't be depressing if the child hovers near the bottom of the class as long as steady progress is made; sudden leaps towards the top are not likely. The sense of ambition should always be cultivated and encouraged. Capricorn parents are eager for their children's success, but should always remember to show their love, affection and appreciation openly - not just with impressive presents, but also by giving the children their time. Ambitious Capricorns can be so involved in their careers and in making money (albeit for the benefit of the family) that they have no time to enjoy their home lives, and in extreme cases - especially if the children went to boarding school - they will suddenly find themselves sharing a home with adults they don't know very well. The importance of moral discipline goes without saying, but Capricorn parents can be over-strict and heavy-handed, especially during the teenage years when children naturally rebel against parental control. An unbridgeable generation gap must certainly not be allowed to develop.
CAREER
While members of many zodiac signs find it hard to cope with responsibility because of the loneliness that is often involved, self-confident Capricorns may welcome the chance to sit in their own offices at their own desks, keeping even their closest colleagues at a distance. They may of course still have to seek and take advice but they can find this rather irksome, probably because they feel they should know everything, and don't like being reminded otherwise. It is, once again, a question of self-confidence: they find it distressing if anything tends to undermine this. Not all Capricorns may be as autocratic as we are suggesting, but there is almost always an element of autocracy somewhere in their character. The Capricorn ladder to success must be steadily climbed; attempts to scale several rungs at once may be disastrous. On the other hand, the top of the ladder is always achievable, and they should set their sights at least as high as its topmost rung. The attitude to money is a careful one and yes, that may be a synonym for meanness! Early in their careers these people will probably subscribe to savings schemes, and if they are free with their money it will often be spent on those who can help them with their careers, entertaining them to dinner, or taking them for drinks, perhaps. Although Capricorns are found in all walks of life, of course, many do particularly well in local government, banking and finance, estate management, the building trades, the dental profession and in osteopathy. The self made businessman or woman may often be a Capricorn.
Change, leisure and retirement
The Capricorn ability for long-term planning should mean that periods of change will be anticipated. Typically, each change should result in positive material progress, adding to the individual's self-confidence and positive outlook. Prudent saving and investment decisions will ensure a good standard of living on retirement. These people should have no problems in filling their well-earned free time with all the activities they have looked forward to tackling. An earth sign, Capricorn persuades its denizens into the garden - or certainly into the fresh air. But this is also a very musical sign, and a literary one, so music and books will help to fill the days.
CAPRICORN AS ASCENDANT
Psychological motivation
The most crucial problem can be wavering self-confidence: one moment these people think they can rule the world and the next they doubt their ability to write a note for the milkman. This can mean they are very confident in some spheres and very nervous in others: they may be quite sure they can cope with their job, but have no confidence that they can sustain a close personal relationship or even establish one. This often arises from an inability to see themselves clearly, so they underestimate their own achievements. They must take themselves at others' valuations, accepting compliments gracefully and believing them. Perhaps surprisingly, once these people settle into a permanent relationship they become very caring, very sensitive to their partners' needs and often their emotions flow in a more positive way. These traits will be most noticeable to the partner, and even close friends may not discern them. A tendency to worry may increase with their natural concern for their partners.

While the goat is the animal of this sign, it is always reresented with a fish's tail.

SCORPIO MOON
The Journey
This moon is one of the most fascinating of the zodiac and one of the most difficult to understand. But that's probably not news to you, who have been living with the energy of this moon since you drew your first breath. There are plenty of times when your lunar journey feels pretty lonely. People either don't have a clue what you're about, or they think they know and they've got it all wrong. Actually, you're not all that sure sometimes who you are. Your emotions are intense and, at times, so sweepingly powerful, that it's as if you're seized by a force beyond your control. Despite how it feels, this sense of outside forces is just an illusion. Your emotions are your most powerful allies. They provide you with a direct, immediate connection to the deepest parts of your intuitive self and are capable of instantly transforming your reality. This transformation happens when you bring your considerable will, intent, and desire to bear against whatever it is that you want to change. When the energy of this moon is focused and backed with passion, this change occurs at the quantum level and can result in the remission of illness or disease, sudden rise in wealth and fame, an explosion of psychic ability. . . well, you get the general idea. Scorpio is also about power-the power we wield over others and the power others wield over us. All too often, this lunar energy is misused or abused when it concerns power issues; then its tremendous capacity for positive transformation becomes negative. The difference seems to be self-awareness. This moon often acts like a psychic sponge, so that you absorb the moods and feelings of the people around you. For this reason, it's important that you associate with positive, upbeat people. If you find yourself in circumstances where you can't do this, then it's to your advantage to "protect" yourself by imagining a white light around you. In a psychic sense, this cocoon of light acts like a kind of mirror that deflects the negativity. This may sound like a flaky idea, but don't dismiss the suggestion until you've tried it. The abundance of raw psychic talent that comes with this moon sign can produce a closet mystic, the neighborhood tea-leaf reader, or an outright clairvoyant. With some people, the ability shows up at a young age. With other people, it's a talent they grow into. In either case, though, you may have a natural attraction for "Scorpio things": mystical books and philosophies, near-death research and affairs of the dead, sex and sexual issues. Your investigative abilities in these areas can be astonishing. Scorpio is the natural ruler of the eighth house in the horoscope and rules the sexual organs, rectum, and reproductive system. As a water sign, its domain is emotion. Emotions that you internalize can accrue in your body over a period of time and may create .health problems. It's vital that you have some way of releasing or expressing what you feel. A physical exercise regimen would be a good place to start, even if it's only a twenty-minute walk a day. I've found that people with a Scorpio moon often have' deep compassion for others and are able to empathize to such a degree that they can make terrific healers, psychologists, and counselors. The key to developing these talents lies in self-awareness. As a fixed sign, your Scorpio moon can be nearly as stubborn as a Taurus moon where emotions are concerned. Quite often, these fixed emotional patterns stem from early childhood responses or from past life experiences. To evolve and grow, it may be necessary for you to change these emotional patterns. The path to that change lies in using your intuition. There's another facet to this moon that's worth mentioning: it never forgets a slight. In unaware people, this can result in vindictiveness, a need to get even at any cost.
Hidden Scorpio
Your secrecy is probably legendary among your family and .friends. It's not that you intentionally try to keep things from the people you love, only that you keep your private thoughts private and that's how it's always been. It's one of those fixed emotional patterns inherent in this moon sign. This is right in keeping with Pluto, the planet that rules Scorpio. In mythology, Pluto ruled the underworld, the place where souls went after death. He was secretive, enigmatic, often ruthless, and used his enormous power to manipulate lesser gods. That pretty much sums up the negative qualities of the Scorpio moon. On the positive side, however, lies unrecognized or undeveloped artistic and psychic talents, piercing insight, and an emotional intelligence that has almost no equal in the zodiac. But to draw on all that positive energy may require that you delve into the secretive side of your nature and understand its source. Once you commit to this kind of self-exploration, the transformation is likely to be profound and far-reaching. Secretive and inclined to brooding silences, it is difficult for others to really know your inner core, for you trust and open yourself to very few. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable and to relinquish control in relationships is not easy for you.You have intense, passionate loves and hates and are a jealously loyal and protective friend - or a fearsome foe. You have a nasty habit of holding on to past hurts, resentments, and guilt - and to keep such feelings to yourself. It is important for you to learn to forgive and let go, as well as to express your feelings openly and directly, rather than hiding or repressing them.You are not content with superficial appearances and are always probing beneath the surface of things for hidden motives. You have a great deal of emotional depth.
Intuitive Scorpio
You probably are well acquainted with the voice of your intuition. Even if you call it by some other name-hunch, gut feeling, impulse-your intuition has been a part of your life as long as you can remember. Maybe your intuition is particularly strong when you're dreaming. Or perhaps it's such a natural part of your life that you don't think about it very much; you simply act on it. Each of the fixed signs experiences intuition in a different way. For Taurus, body sensations are particularly strong; for Aquarius, the intellect is the strongest intuitive vehicle; for Leo, intuition works best through action; and for the Scorpio moon, intuition is strongest in the emotional realm. A sudden, inexplicable fluctuation in your emotions is often the first signal that your intuition is trying to seize your attention.
