Capricorn Health

With your conservative, traditional nature you display a strong will. You easily earn the respect of everyone around you. Because you leave nothing in your life to chance, you are known for being calculating; a haphazard arrangement of things unsettles you. Because you are patient, your illnesses appear all at once after a long delay. Capricorns have little resistance when small, but once they have got through the illnesses of childhood their bodies become more robust. Because you are measured and disciplined, you do not overeat. When you realise you are about to fall ill, you look after yourself. You do not get on at all well with doctors and medicine; because you are your own doctor, you are one of the rare people who take care of their health. When you really are ill you behave reasonably and with discipline, make a good patient and do everything the doctor asks. You bear pain without complaining, and because you do not want to trouble the people around you, nobody knows what you are going through. Your bones are weak and you are prone to rheumatic complaints. You are inclined towards nervous disorders and towards melancholy; a sense of loneliness makes you pessimistic.
