The day after tomorrow will be Christmas Day. Yesterday was the start of a new zodiac sign, Capricorn (the Goat). That will end on 19th January. Why “a goat” ? Did men in past times see a goat in the stars? And why does the sign have a fish tail? Is the goat like a mermaid? The symbolism comes from a Sumerian god called Enki or Ea – half goat and half fish. He was associated with creation, wisdom, mischief and subterranean waters. A goat can climb up mountains and a fish can dive in deep waters. My own design is not correct – it doesn't have a fish tail! (But I've lost it.)
