Horoscopes

If it’s your birthday this fortnight...

… (from the 21st) you are born under Capricorn, known as the mountain goat, but also as the sea goat, often depicted with a fish tail. Goats are sturdy, plucky creatures who travel far on nimble feet. Capricorns play the long game, and are cautious thinkers. You can charm your way up the ladder, but you also put in the hours.

■ Famous Capricorns celebrating this fortnight include Nadiya Hussain, Carol Vorderman (both pictured), Jane Fonda, Ben Kingsley, Dame Maggie Smith, Sir Anthony Hopkins. CAPRICORN DEC 21-JAN 20 It’s your time, and much is happening behind the scenes, making way for new family or domestic beginnings.
