Capricorn, the Sea Goat, has Saturn as its ruling planet. The planet has been
named after the Roman God of Agriculture and the founder of civilization, social
order and conformity. Saturn takes approximately 29.5 years to orbit the sun and
spends about 2.46 years in each sun sign of the zodiac. It governs various
aspects of a person's life, like dreams, aspirations, profession, power and
hierarchy. Saturn instills in an individual a sense of duty, discipline and
responsibility.
It gives them the strength to bear great physical and emotional hardships,
without so much a complaint on their lips. Individuals dominated by this planet
concern themselves with future and long term planning. Saturn rules over the
skeletal system, skin, teeth, gall bladder spleen and vagus nerve. Till the time
Uranus was not discovered, Saturn was regarded as the ruling planet of Aquarius.
Infact, even today, many astrologers regard it as dominating both the Capricorn
and the Aquarius sun signs.
Saturn bestows its subjects with qualities like knowledge, understanding,
willpower, restraint, resolve and a sense of responsibility. The items
associated with it are aspen, elder, elm, pine, poplar, weeping willow, yew,
burdock, hemlock, holly and the black and red poppy. The lucky colors for those
