Capricorn is the planner of the zodiac: ambitious, dry-humoured, quietly reliable, the person who actually reads the instructions. That is the Sun, ruled by Saturn, the part of you that wants to build something that lasts. Venus describes how you love, and it is often less buttoned-up than people expect.
On more Capricorn birthdays than any other, Venus is a sign ahead, in Aquarius. Those Capricorns want a partner who is a best friend first and are surprisingly unconventional about what a relationship looks like. Others have Venus in Sagittarius and bring humour and adventure. About a quarter have Venus in Capricorn, loyal and in it for the long game.

Quick answers
Why does my Capricorn partner act so independent in relationships?
One likely reason is Venus in Aquarius, the most common Venus sign for a Capricorn birthday in our count. Astrologers associate it with friendship-first love and a strong need for personal space.
Which year's season am I in if I'm a January Capricorn?
The one that started the previous December. Capricorn season runs from about December 21 to January 20, so a Capricorn born in January 2000 belongs to the season that began in December 1999. The finder labels it 1999/00.
