Sagittarius Sun, Capricorn Rising: the suit is a decoy
A pitch to a new client. You walk in with the laptop closed, a grave expression and a low voice; your Capricorn Rising conveys experience, prudence, someone who never promises what they cannot deliver. The client relaxes. By the third slide your Sagittarius Sun appears: a huge idea, an example from a distant market, an unexpected joke. The client laughs but is thrown: they thought they had hired the accountant and got the explorer.
People read you as conservative when you are an optimist dressed as a cautious one; they get you wrong often. The clash works for you when leading ambitious projects, because the front buys the trust the idea needs. Practical tip: always open with the numbers and close with the vision, never the other way round. If the leap into the big picture comes last, the audience has already decided you are reliable and follows you.

Your style is sober, classic cuts, dark colours and a watch that keeps exact time.
