Capricorn – The most strangled astrological sign

Capricorn, the agile goat, is the second most likely astrological sign to die an unnatural death (after Virgo).

An extensive study of the causes of death and the astrological sign of the deceased person was carried out over a period of almost ten years. More than 60,000 deaths were reviewed and the results compiled in a study. The intention behind this massive project was to see if the traits and characteristics of each astrological sign influenced how they died. In particular, whether or not there was a link between the astrological sign and the type of unnatural death (suicide, murder, accident, etc.).

The results showed that Capricorns were the second tallest overall, making them the second most likely astrological sign to die an unnatural death. Capricorns were shown to be the leaders (most likely to die) in four of the causes of death examined in the study. Capricorn scored highest in death by fire (equals first Taurus), by drug overdose (equals first Leo), as a pedestrian and was also the astrological sign most likely to be strangled.

Astrology studies show that there are two types of Capricorn: the agile and ambitious ibex, and the lovely, grass-munching garden goat. The Capricorn ibex will amaze everyone around him with his tenacity and drive to achieve his goals. The Capricorn Garden Goat is just as capable of greatness, he just needs a good kick in the butt to get him moving!

So the questions raised by the results of this study are why Capricorn ranks second in the overall ranking of unnatural death and first in the four categories mentioned above. In this article, I will discuss the possible reasons why Capricorn ranks first in strangulation and drug overdose.

Capricorns, for all their endearing and impressive positive qualities, have some very unpleasant traits; being stingy with money, self-centered and pessimistic. Being an Ebeneezer Scrooge and self centered could certainly go a long way in driving another to strangle them. In fact, aside from involvement in crime, selfishness and greed for money were frequently cited in death case studies as major contributing factors in Capricorn’s strangulation.

The pessimism and sadness that often mark the Capricorn personality could be a contributing factor to the large number of Capricorns who die of drug overdose (suicide) each year. This high rate in Capricorn could also be partly explained by the ambition factor and the tendency of successful young people (and not so young) to use drugs as a status symbol or risky activity.
