Your Core Signs shape your core self, while the Inner and Outer Planets shape your personal traits and collective influences.

Sun in Capricorn

Kathrine Switzer has a relentless drive to be the best at whatever she does, and she's willing to put in the work to get there. Classy and reserved in public, she doesn't give much away, but for the people who've earned her loyalty, she'll show her heart of gold. Her ambition can tip into tunnel vision, and when she feels unappreciated, her mood can dampen the room.

Degree: 19°
Communication is at the heart of Kathrine Switzer’s emotional world, and she’s happiest when surrounded by chatter, ideas, and new information. Her moods can shift based on her latest conversation, and she’s more drawn to someone’s words than their appearance. She can get irritable over small things, but a single good exchange is enough to bring her right back.
