In medical astrology, Capricorn rules the skeletal system and knees. It is also linked to the skin, the outer limit of the body.
Ambitious Capricorn is a hard-working, dependable sign: a doer. This is the sign of the father and authority figures. The seriousness of the Capricorn nature is supported by its birthstone, Onyx, which strengthens resolve and aids self-confidence. Jet is one of Saturn’s stones. It is useful in dispelling the Saturnine gloom that so often afflicts Capricorn. Labradorite, with its iridescent flashes of light, lightens the spirit and helps Capricorn understand a strong sense of duty and destiny. It affords a glimpse of spiritual possibilities open to an evolved Capricorn soul. For Capricorn joints, which can become stiff and rigid, Azurite brings flexibility.
