Uranus in Capricorn
Uranus is exalted in Capricorn by some traditions; here (1988–1996) it restructures institutions. The cohort rebuilds authority and career from the inside. In a chart it shows where ambition is inventive. The work is to reform without contempt.
In plain words
Uranus stands for your need for freedom. In Capricorn, that works in a Capricorn way: serious, patient and ambitious. You play the long game and expect to earn it.
