The Capricorn symbol (or glyph) is that of the Sea Goat. It represents the hoof of the mountain goat and the tail of the fish for the 10th astrological zodiac sign. Capricorn dates are usually December 22 to January 20.
Capricorns are known for their ability to get things done and work their way up the mountain no matter what. But, with their watery tail, they’re also able to go emotionally deep and tap into their creativity.
You may have noticed that there are a few different Capricorn horoscope symbols out there. Every time I try and draw it, I feel like I’m seeing a new one! Some look like the word No, some look like 7s, and some have the loop at the top.

Why does Capricorn have different symbols? In Esoteric Astrology, it’s said that the Capricorn symbol represents the signature of God. So that may be one reason. But, if you look closely, you’ll see that in all Capricorn glyphs, the horns of the goat and the loop of the fish tail are there.
The horns come from the constellation of Capricorn, which looks like an inverted triangle and rises each year around the winter solstice.
This triangle can also be found at the center of the inverted pentagram that is found on the top of the Devil card in tarot. In the tarot, the Devil card is ruled by Capricorn, and represented by his goat form Baphomet or Pan in the Rider-Waite deck.

The zodiac as we know it was created by the Babylonians around 1700 BC, who existed before the Ancient Greeks. The signs of the zodiac represent their gods.
Capricorn is a representation of Ea (previously known as Enki) and its regent was the goddess Tašmetu. Ea was the incredibly virile god of water who lived under the ocean. He was associated with knowledge, creation, magic, and mischief and represented by a sea goat. And, Tašmetu was the granter of requests.
When the Greeks adopted the zodiac, they changed a few things. And, these days we consider Capricorn is a grounded earth sign and a determined cardinal sign that is ruled by Saturn, the ruthless father of the Greek Gods.

Each astrological sign has one Major Arcana and a few Minor Arcana tarot cards associated with it. Do you know which are for yours?This beautiful zodiacal sign, Capricorn, house of Saturn, sign of Earth, relates to death. In the physical body it governs the knees. The goat, which is a symbol of Capricorn, reminds us of the god Pan in the Greek and Roman mythology. The god Pan must not be confused or mixed with Priapus, which is another symbol. When you observe the symbol of Pan, you see the legs of a goat, which is precisely the symbol of Capricorn; whereas the upper part of Pan is of a human being, the only difference is that it has horns. This is a very deep symbol that we should inquire and investigate in relation with Gnosticism.
Pan is a symbol of Saturn, which is a planet related to the symbol of Earth. Saturn is associated with the gnomes and pygmies of the Earth, thus, when in mythology we study the god Pan, we see that it is related with these mythological creatures, satyrs, etc., always playing a flute – a symbol of the harmony of the spheres.

When you delve deep into Greek mythology, you find that Saturn is the father of Jupiter and many other gods. Saturn is symbolized with a scythe or sickle, and is also called Kronos, the god of time and death, because astrologically Saturn is related with the ray of death or destruction. So here we discover a very important Kabbalistic symbol, because when you go into the Tree of Life, which is formed by the ten Sephiroth, you see that Binah, which is the third Sephirah of the first triangle at the top of the Tree of Life, is governed by Saturn. In Gnosticism, we state that Binah is governed by Saturn and also by Jupiter, because indeed, Saturn also holds the scepter of the kings, and is also a king.
Christianity has its foundations in Judaism, and Judaism is based on the Tree of Life, Kabbalah - thus Christians call Binah “the Holy Spirit.” This first triangle of the Tree of Life (whose Sephiroth in Kabbalah are called Kether, Chokmah, Binah) are respectively translated into English as Crown, Wisdom, and Understanding (sometimes Binah is translated as ‘Intelligence’). In Christianity these are called Father, Son, and Holy Spirit: the Holy Trinity or Three-Unity.
When we delve into other religions like Hinduism, then we find that this first triangle relates to the Trimurti of the Hindus and Brahmins, which is Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. Shiva is the Holy Spirit; Shiva is Binah. Among the Hindus, they know that Shiva is the first-begotten and is the god of creation and destruction. Hinduism is a very ancient religion – oldest among our many religions.

Judaism equates with certain mythological symbols that Moses took from Egypt, since Egypt is one of the great civilizations that flourished after India. When we investigate our root race, the Aryan race, we know that the first subrace of this Aryan race flourished in Tibet, then the second in India and China, and the third in Egypt, Persia, Babylon, Chaldea, etc. When we investigate the fourth - formed by the Greek and Roman civilizations - then we discover the emerging of Judaism and Christianity in between these two Aryan subraces – the third and fourth subraces - that come from the ancient religions of India and Tibet.
In Kabbalah there are different divine names attributed to each Sephirah of the ten Sephiroth on the Tree of Life. The name given to Binah in Atziluth is Jehovah Elohim, or as we say in Kabbalah, Iod-Havah – this is how the Jehovah, which you read in the Bible is pronounced in a strictly Kabbalistic way, Iod-Havah. This name Jehovah or Jahovah is written with four letters: Iod, Hei, Vav, Hei. Those are the four letters which are called the Holy Tetragrammaton, which is a Greek word from ‘tetra, ’ four, and ‘maton’ which means ‘lettered’ or ‘a union of four letters.’ When you have pronounced Tetragrammaton, you are pronouncing the holy name of God: Iod, Hei, Vav, Hei, the tetra, the four; one, two, three, four. However, if you notice, when you pronounce those letters, Iod, Hei, Vav, Hei, you are pronouncing the second letter again in the fourth.
So, indeed, this is why Theodorus Siculus the great theologian, stated that the God of Moses was really IAO [pronounced EE-AH-OH], a name that we find very often in the Gnostic scriptures. IAO is the highest of all the gods. If we do not know mythology and the origin of these different symbols, then we would not understand about this highest god IAO. In the Hebrew letters or Hebrew language, you do not find vowels, only consonants. This is why when you pronounce the Hebrew letters, the letter ‘Iod’ is taken as the letter ‘I’; the letter ‘Hei’ in the middle of any word is taken as the letter ‘A’; and the letter ‘Vav’ is taken as the letter ‘O’ or ‘U’. So if we take the other ‘Hei’ again, we just make a silent sound, the letter ‘H, ’ in order to pronounce the name IAO.

So, Theodorus Siculus stated that IAO is the highest of all the gods. Indeed, IAO is Saturn, which is also associated with Jupiter – a force, an energy, in Heaven. So the seasons of the year, according to this theologian Theodorus Siculus, states that Zeus governs Spring, Helios (the sun) governs Summer, and IAO Autumn or Fall, while Hades, the god of Hell, which is also Pluto, governs Winter. So we find here that IAO, according to Greek mythology, is related to the season of Autumn, which is precisely the great symbol of the god of death, because that is precisely when nature starts declining in order to enter into Winter. IAO is precisely that god that was, in different languages, especially Spanish, mixed with the word ‘Diablo, ’ which in English is ‘Devil.’ So, the Divine Daemon of Socrates, the Diablo or the Devil as we say it in mythological terms, is directly related with the god Pan, which is in relation with Lucifer, the forces of nature.
When you study the Tree of Life, you discover that Binah, the Holy Spirit (Shiva in India) is related with the sphere of Yesod. This is because each one of these forces – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – governs the three triangles:
Within the third triangle we find Yesod, which is called ‘the Stone.’ Saturn is associated with the Stone. This is why in mythology you find that every time Saturn’s wife was delivering a son, he swallowed him, he ate that son in order for
