What the second decan of Capricorn is read as
The second decan of Capricorn is read as carrying a touch of Taurus and Venus. The ambition learns to enjoy itself. These Capricorns tend to want the good things their work pays for, to show love through what they provide and to stay loyal to people who have earned it.
What the number 2 adds
Numerology reads a birthday that comes to 2 as the mark of a go-between. It tends to mean a gift for noticing what the other person needs, and a dislike of deciding alone when someone you trust is nearby.
