They also tend to reject the individual expression of their personality and ideas.
Professionally, Capricorn Ascendant people are often successful.

Structure and order is everything to them, and they are brilliant at it!
Capricorns are ruled by Saturn, the planet constricted by rings. In Greek mythology, Saturn is Cronus, the great Titan. He is the stern father to many of the great gods, including Zeus. He has a father energy that comes with discipline.
