Rashi
Capricorn Rashi
Capricorn is a earth sign connected with structure, responsibility, and long effort. In a kundali, rashi describes how a graha expresses and how a house receives its themes.
Sign meaning
Capricorn brings structure, responsibility, and long effort. It should be read through the planet occupying it, the house it falls in, and the sign lord's condition.
Lord, element, and modality
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, is a earth sign, and is chara (movable). Modality matters as much as element when reading a chart: chara signs start things, sthira signs hold and consolidate them, and dwiswabhava signs adapt and hand over. Because Saturn rules Capricorn, the condition of Saturn — its house, dignity, and running dasha — colours everything this sign touches in your kundali.
Planetary dignity in this sign
Exalted here: Mars. Debilitated here: Jupiter. In own sign here: Saturn. Dignity sets a baseline strength, not a verdict — a debilitated graha can be substantially rehabilitated by neecha-bhanga through its dispositor, and an exalted graha in a difficult house may still struggle. Always read dignity together with house, aspects, and dasha.
In birth charts
A planet in Capricorn takes on Capricorn's earth style. The Moon sign describes emotional patterning, while the lagna sign shapes the chart's orientation.
