Geocache Description:

Capricorn (270°-300° Celestial Longitude) December 22 – January 19


“The Mountain Goat or Sea Goat” is the 10th sign of the Zodiac. The Sun transits this area between December 22 and January 19. This is an Earth sign, ruled by Saturn. Capricornus is the official name of the constellation but is commonly called Capricorn when referring to the corresponding astrological sign. Its name is Latin for “horned goat” or “goat horn” and is commonly represented in the form of a sea-goat: a mythical creature that is half goat, half fish.

Interestingly, the Celtic tree astrology has a Birch tree represent this time of the year. The birch is the first tree to leaf after the winter months are behind us. Considering our winters, we need more birch.

Please park at N49° 58.560 W96° 58.410 and NOT on English road. The road appears to be a private drive.
