The Capricorn symbol (♑, U+2651) is a stylized monogram of the sea-goat, a creature with the head and horns of a goat joined to the curling tail of a fish. That strange hybrid comes straight from Greek myth: when the monster Typhon attacked the gods, Pan, the goat-legged god of the wild, fled to the banks of the Nile and leapt in, trying to turn himself into a fish to escape. The transformation only half-worked: his upper body stayed a goat while his lower half became a fish's tail. Zeus set that half-goat, half-fish form among the stars as Capricorn. It runs December 22–January 19, is an Earth sign with Cardinal modality, and is ruled by Saturn (♄). Capricorn begins at the December solstice, the reason Earth's southern line of latitude is called the Tropic of Capricorn.
