Capricorns are responsible, resourceful, and loyal but can be distrusting at times. Regardless of whether or not you were born under the sign, learn how Capricorn you really are by taking the quiz!

How Capricorn Are You Really?

Astrology has always been good for a laugh, though to some, it's no joke to align closely with their zodiac sign. You there, are you a Capricorn? You know, the serious one who’s as practical as a Swiss Army knife and as ambitious as a squirrel before winter. Born between December 22 and January 19, you're the one in your squad everyone deems the "responsible friend." But how Capricorn are you really? Do you embody the essence of this cardinal earth sign, steadfast as a mountain in every task you undertake?

You might wear that Capricorn badge with the kind of pride that says, "I’m born in the dead of winter, so I’m naturally cool," but let’s put it through a quirky reality check, shall we? Because being a Capricorn isn’t just about harboring the patience of a monk or having the work ethic of a bee; it's a rich tapestry of personality traits that might leave others saying, "Yep, that’s so you!" or "Whoa, really? That's a Capricorn thing?"

Amusement aside, it's time to unravel the cosmic conundrum of your star-induced identity. Are you really the zodiac's CEO, or have the stars pulled a fast one on you? Roll up your sleeves (a very Capricorn thing to do) and let's scope out just how aligned you are with the stars.
