Combined Western and Chinese Zodiacs
Capricorn Snake

Capricorns embody the autumnal period, around the mid- to late-sixties of a human lifetime. They tend to have an ingrained faith in their own abilities, as if they were born already blessed with great life experience. They are grounded by their element of Earth: diligent, patient, and adept at conserving resources to further their significant ambitions. Above all, Capricorns are masterful at exercising control, at understanding and wielding power. The challenges they face tend to arise from an innate pessimism, an impression that time is running out for them to capitalize on their abundant skills.

Sixth in the rank of Eastern zodiac animals is the wise, alluring Snake. Snake natives possess an incredible facility for learning. Throughout their lives, these magnetic souls reveal an instinctual command of philosophy, religion, and the human psyche. The sexual attractiveness of the Snake is also legendary. To fall under the spell of a Snake individual is to know truly unbridled passion and sensuality. Snake natives are well advised to avoid taking advantage of their gifts, lest they appear egotistical, manipulative or hedonistic. Perhaps because they are accustomed to winning favour easily, they can also be prone to jealousy and tight-fistedness. In harmonious contexts, however, the profound knowledge and abundant sensuality of those born under the sign of the Snake can immeasurably enrich their loved ones and communities.
