January is the Month of the Cosmic Goat

The two forms of Capricorn
The Amphibious 'Tranfomer'


Capricorn is perhaps the most capricious sign of the Zodiac. It has two forms the goat and the sea-goat. Which one is it? Nobody knows, but I like to think of it as a transformer sign, kinda' like a frog. Capricorn can switch back in forth on land and water, depending on how it feels.

Its sort of like the mermaid from the movie Splash 1984 that starred Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah. When the mermaid was dry her fish portion would grow legs but when she was hit with sea water she would revert to being a mermaid. Likewise this can happen with Capricorn.


Flag of Balawaristan in Kashmir

In the hotly contested issue of Kashmir there is group of people hoping for the independent nation that Balawaristan. There are several variations of the flag but the most popular seems to the Goat of the Mountain. Since it is the month of the "Mermaid Goat"- Balawaristan is our feature flag.

The flag bears a slightly resembles its semi-parent state - Pakistan. Both Pakistan and Balawaristan have a white vertical stripe on the hoist with a green field to the right. But Balawaristan also has a black vertical stripe and red triangle. In the field are three moutains with a large white goat head.

Part of the Balawari name means 'highlander.' Just like some highlanders in Scotland there are highlanders in Pakistan who want to form their own nation.
