Listen to this.
You wouldn't think that the British singer Adele turned 21 last May, would you? She has the voice of, well, experience.
When I hear a voice like hers, I ask myself where's the Capricorn?
This is because I've noticed that Sun or Moon in Capricorn often (not always) goes with really big voices, or just old sounding voices like Eartha Kitt's. Sometimes Capricorn seems to give the ability to reach right down into the guts of the earth and drag out music, like Janis Joplin. It is after all the sign of the shaman. There's a quality of earthy experience there that seems quite natural to these singers.
Here are some singers with Sun in Capricorn: Elvis, Shirley Bassey, Patti Smith, Scott Walker, Joan Baez, Annie Lennox, Beth Gibbons (Portishead), Captain Beefheart, Michael Stipe.
And it's no surprise that some Capricorn musicians – Dolly Parton and David Bowie for example - have excellent heads for business.
Here are some singers with Moon in Capricorn: Sarah Vaughn, Tammy Wynette, Patsy Cline, Stevie Nicks, Wynonna Judd, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Dinah Shore, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, oh and David Byrne. That's a lot of country music and some serious blues.
Just in case you were wondering, according to the given birth time for Amy Winehouse, she was born with the Moon at 0° Capricorn: that's a critical degree which means extra power. It's also the same degree as the great diva Maria Callas' Venus.

| She's a shaman for sure. |
So what about Adele? She has not got the Sun or the Moon in the sign of the goatfish. Instead she comes from a generation with a stellium of outer planets in Capricorn, including Neptune who we associate with musicality.
That Neptune trines her Sun-Jupiter conjunction in Taurus, the sign that rules the throat and often goes with a beautiful voice. With Jupiter there, it's no surprise that she has such a huge sound.
Adele's Uranus (a spark of genius) is at 0° Capricorn too.
I think we're in for a treat with the Neptune in Capricorn generation coming of age now.
