What the third decan of Capricorn is read as
The third decan of Capricorn is read as carrying a touch of Virgo and Mercury. It is the Capricorn who reads the small print. People here tend to plan in detail, to show love through remembering exactly what you said, and to be most at ease when the job is complicated and theirs alone.
What the number 7 adds
Numerology reads a birthday that comes to 7 as the mark of a thinker. It tends to mean a need for time alone, a mind that wants the real reason, and a small circle who have earned being let in.
