Capricorn. Decoded.
Capricorn climbs. The goat on the mountain is not a metaphor for ambition — it's a picture of patience. Saturn teaches Capricorn that time, pressure, and consistency build the only things worth keeping. The coldness people mistake for distance is usually just Capricorn working.

Beyond the horoscope paragraph.
Most of what you've read about Capricorn was written for a million strangers who happen to share your birthday month. That's not how a sign works.
Capricorn is a Earth sign of the Cardinal modality, ruled by Saturn. Those three facts tell you more than any list of personality traits. The element tells you how Capricorn processes experience; the modality tells you how Capricorn acts on it; the ruling planet tells you what Capricorn is actually chasing.
And then there's the rest of your chart — ten planets, twelve houses, every aspect between them. Your Sun in Capricorn is one placement out of dozens. The full chart is where Capricorn actually lives.
