Astrological Houses through the Zodiac ~ Capricorn
Saturn in Capricorn, one of the signs it rules, represents authority, integrity, and structure and can slow things down with its conservative, meticulous, and serious nature. It brings a status-oriented, disciplined, and ambitious nature that is willing to work hard for what it wants to achieve.
