Makara (Capricorn) is ruled by Sani (Saturn), and its symbol is the Mountain Goat. 
   Makara (Capricorn) is an Earth sign. 

   The one trait that best describes those born under this sign is ambition.  Their lives are devoted 
   to achieving something, whether it be an intellectual discovery, meeting a personal commitment , 
   fulfilling a business obligation, or some other lofty objective.  They have a tireless drive to 
   accomplish their mission and they plod on methodically until they succeed. Like their symbol, the 
   mountain goat, they are steady and sure-footed, and take few risks on the way. 

   People born under this sign are highly intelligent and take naturally to positions of authority. 
   They are excellent administrators and use every tool at their disposal to organize, plan, and 
   problem solve their way to their goal.  They constantly strive towards security, and they regard 
   hard work and financial rewards as ways to secure their well-being.  They only desire money 
   because it is a guarantee against whatever the uncertain future holds. 

   They are very confident and have great faith in their own abilities.  Often, they feel that they can 
   only depend on themselves, and  this is sometimes misinterpreted by others who think them cold 
   and detached. 

   This is far from true, however, as they can be very sympathetic and understanding.  Just when 
   you least expect it, they can show you an excellent sense of humor which is wry, witty, and very 
   funny. 

   People born under this sign should worship Sani (Saturn) and Lord Venkateshwara for 
   overall prosperity and happiness.
