The golden comes from 戊, a mountain. People lean on you. You rarely say you're tired. The horse (午): free and fast — you need to keep moving. Capricorn is earth: once you set a goal, you climb it one step at a time.

When the Golden Horse fights

When you fightYou hold it for ages, then erupt like a volcano.There's fire under the mountain — quiet for a long time, then a big eruption.

How you're misreadPeople say you change frighteningly.It's as big as the patience was. There were signs before.

Your strength in a conflictYou protect with fire.Steady and passionate, you guard the person you love.

What Capricorn addsYou fold up the feeling and treat it like a task.Capricorn earth puts feelings on hold. One line of feeling before the fix.

One small stepBefore the volcano — speak while there's only smoke.
