Descriptive Essay On Capricornus

My favorite constellation is Capricornus. It is one of the 12 signs from the Zodiac. Its name is actually Latin for 'The Goat '. The symbol for my constellation looks like a 'n ' with a twist at the end. It symbols a sea goat, a mythological animal. The constellation of the Capricornus looks a little bit like the face of a fox. The reason I 've chosen this constellation, is because my zodiac sign is Capricorn. I 'm was also always pretty curious about my zodiac sign, about its origin and what it meant, but I actually never looked it up.

The Capricornus represents the goat-fish. Goat-fish have a body of a goat, and a tail of a fish. The Greek myth begins with the sea-goat Pricus. He was the king of the sea-goats, who were intelligent and

Until he reached the surface. He was exited for what he could see. He stuck his head above the water and breathed in all the air. He loved it above the water, it was so beautiful! He swam back to his parents and brother and begged them to come up with him. After a long time nagging and begging they would come up with him.
