Why is Capricorn in the zodiac a sheep's body and a fishtail? Where did this image come from?

Capricorn is rigorous and introverted, as the name suggests. In Greek mythology, he was in charge of Zeus's cattle and sheep, and they all called him Paine.

Paine is so ugly that he can almost be described as ferocious. There are two horns on the head, but the part of the lower body that should be the foot is the sheep's hoof. Such an ugly appearance makes Paine, the god of agriculture and animal husbandry, very embarrassed and inferior. He can't sing with God or have sex with charming fairies. Ah! Who can understand that there is a warm heart under the ugly appearance? Day and night, he can only use oral sex to relieve his grief.

One day, the gods got together to drink and laugh loudly. Zeus, the god, knew that Paine played the flute very well and asked him to play for the gods.

When Xiao's piercing voice was flowing in the forest Yuan Ye and the ghosts and gods were singing in ecstasy, on the other side of the forest, a multi-headed animal with 100 eyes was screaming. The fairies turned pale with fear, threw down their harps and turned them into butterflies. The gods don't care about the wine in their hands, some turn into flapping birds, some jump into the river and go downstream, and some simply turn into light smoke and disappear without a trace.

Pansi, the god of agriculture and animal husbandry, watched the gods escape and slip away, but still thought, "What should I do to escape?" Hesitate. Finally, he decided to turn into a fish and jump into a stream. But the stream he chose was too shallow to fully accommodate his huge body, so the lower body became a fishtail, while the upper body was still a goat's head.

The fish tail in the lower part symbolizes Capricorn's shyness.
