Capricorn
Women:
Capricorn, an earth sign, is concerned with grouding and solid,
concrete achievement. Capricornian women pursue their goals over
tremendous obstacles. The perseverance of the mountain goat is
a key image for this sign. They are strongly achievement-oriented,
and have the capacity to work long and hard.
Capricorn
can be bent on material gain, but more often the motivation is
to attain a position of social responsibility, even if it means
that they will enjoy fewer pleasures in life.
The
Capricorn woman will seldom be content to settle into an obscure,
behind-the-scenes position in life. She will want to be at the
top, in a position of power, even if she has to work night and
day to get there. At the same time, there is a deeply serious,
thoughtful side of Capricorn. She may be prey to deep doubts and
anxieties which she may strive to reach the heights of spiritual
realization instead. Whether she seeks material or spiritual fulfillment
and achievement, the Capricorn woman is capable of exercising
great-discipline.
In
a love relationship, the Capricorn woman can be counted on to
support her partner. She is a veritable Rock of Gibraltar. She
does not easily express love; she is reserved and fears rejection.
When she does express her love you know she really means it, and
it means a lot to her. Even though the Capricorn woman you love
may be successful in the world, don't be deceived. She is probably
filled with self-doubts and needs a lot of reassurance from you
that you care for her. Given this reassurance, she makes a loyal
and faithful partner. If you need security, emotionally or materially,
she will be there.
Capricorn
Loving Scorpio
The Scorpio and Capricorn combination is a sexually passionate
connection. The Scorpio woman, a water sign, is capable of giving
great emotional support, and Capricorn, an earth sign, is concerned
with solid frequency. These two women will support and appreciate
each other, as both are dynamic and have relationship agendas,
and especially expectations of partners. Each respects the strength
and character of the other.
Both
Scorpio and Capricorn tend to be serious about their love, and
in different ways take a profound approach to relating intimately.
Each will sense a bonding with the other, and will be grateful
for it. These two women will be challenged by issues such as control,
as they both have a tendency to relate with full love depth. The
Scorpio woman makes demonstration demands on her Capricorn partner;
the Capricorn woman needs a sense of secure structure and the
intense upheaval of Scorpio's emotions can be threatening to her
at times. A Scorpio can be a threat to her well-organized and
secure existence, challenging her emotional routines.
In
spite of the challenges, sharing is the important character exchange
between them. Both are very willing and able to build a relationship
with deep roots. Both women are capable of depth and are serious
in their approaches to love. Neither expresses affection easily,
but when alone intimacy is a natural part of their affection for
each other.
Capricorn
Loving Libra
The Libra and Capricorn connection brings a union of the senses.
Libra is an air sign whose concern is with taking a detached and
balanced view in a relationship; Capricorn is an earth sign, concerned
with the stability and solid achievements experienced in relationships,
and trust and closeness are her markers. The Libra woman tends
to be impatient with her Capricorn lover, because of the issue
of proof: the Libra needs the freedom to explore new ways of being
without regard for declarations of constant "I love you,"
and the Capricorn woman has a strong will but is more concerned
with security and self-discipline than anything else. She may
find that sometimes the Libra woman is unable to give commitments.
Her idealism can get in the way of long-term/short-term relating.
In
spite of these callenges, these women have a deep understanding.
There is a sense of structure and fitness in each of them, and
they both can be very concerned with social and emotional appropriateness.
Carried too far, they can be conventional and overly committed
instead of focusing first on themselves. The Libra woman appreciates
the organizational ability and determination of the Capricorn
woman, and has a very real respect for the Capricorn's strength
of character and commitment, even though at times she may find
her partner to be concerned with mundane matters. The Capricorn
appreciates the clear and insightful mentality of her Libra partner.
The Libra woman is not inclined to be dishonest or to lie. She
may become impatient, however, with the Libra's tendency to resolve
differences into the wee hours of the morning and with words rather
than actions.
Both
these women can be telepathic, especially with each other. The
comfort that results from this kind of contact also carries into
their sexual lives. Togetherness is important.
Capricorn Loving Aquarius
The Capricorn/Aquarius combination brings together two very different
women who may need to compromise considerably to create a harmonious
relationship. Capricorn, an earth sign, is concerned with secure
structure and grounding; Aquarius, an air sign, needs the freedom
to transcend mundane concerns, and sees life through a universal
perspective. The Capricorn woman needs security and dependability
in a relationship while the Aquarius woman needs the freedom to
do whatever she pleases with no restrictions. The Capricorn woman
will often tend to feel insecure with her Aquarian partner's unpredictable
ways, and the Aquarian woman may rebel against the duties and
expectations her Capricorn partner tries to impose on her.
In
spite of these differences these women do have certain things
in common. Both the Capricorn and Aquarius approach life from
a more impersonal perspective. Both women are prone to involve
themselves in larger social causes, and a meaningful career is
important to both. Together they can be very effective in instigating
social reform as both are very aware of the impact of social institutions
on people's lives. Both women have the capacity to think abstractly
and see the overall intellectual structure that governs life,
and they will be able to share ideas with each other and find
their mental interchanges productive. Each will respect the well-developed
intellectual power of the other.
Although
these two women may have a very good intellectual relationship
they may have difficulty communicating deeper intimate feelings.
Both women tend to approach life in a somewhat cool and detached
manner, and neither woman is prone to wear her heart on her sleeve.
This can be the basis of misunderstandings between them. The Capricorn
woman, in particular, may feel her Aquarian partner is indifferent
to her because the Aquarian tends to appear calm and detached
in all situations. Both women have profound feelings beneath the
surface but neither one knows how to communicate them easily and
will often try to avoid doing so. Both are afraid of displaying
strong emotion and want to appear outwardly in control. If these
two women can overcome their emotional reserve and share with
each other on a deeper level they will find they have a lot to
offer each other: the Capricorn woman can offer her Aquarian partner
a realistic structure within which the relationship can flourish,
and the Aquarian woman can help her Capricorn partner to expand
and lighten her approach to life, breaking out of the old molds
that bind her and becoming more uninhibited.
Sexually,
these two women may need to work at compatibility, as neither
reveals her feelings and needs very easily. The Aquarian is more
spontaneous sexually and wants to quickly switch from a serious
endeavor into a romantic and playful connection, while her Capricorn
partner may find difficulty releasing the seriousness and getting
into the interchange of closeness. When the Aquarian learns to
realize that her Capricorn partner does not move from one emotion
to another easily and allows her time to adjust to this new proposal,
all will work well. The Aquarian will add novelty and adventurousness
to their sex lives.
Capricorn
Loving Cancer
The Cancer and Capricorn combination is basically a very strong
and positive one. Cancer and Capricorn are opposite signs in the
zodiac, and as polar opposites they can complement each other
or conflict. Cancer, a water sign, brings warmth and sentimentality
to a relationship, and Capricorn, an earth sign, brings grounding
and dependability. These two women can supply what each other
lacks. The Cancer woman can give her Capricorn partner the emotional
nurturing which the Capricorn tends to deny herself, and the Capricorn
woman can offer her Cancer partner the solid security and dependability
she needs.
Both
Cancer and Capricorn are concerned with security, but while Cancer
needs a sense of emotional security and roots, Capricorn needs
the security of a solid foundation as well as the security of
achievement in her work. These two women will be able to understand
the need to give security to each other, and their relationship
will be characterized by a sense of enduring continuity. Generally,
the Cancer woman will supply emotional nurturing focused in the
home, while the Capricorn woman provides security through her
achievement in the world.
When
problems arise between the two women they stem from the definition
of security. The Cancer woman needs a lot of emotional security,
and the Capricorn woman tends to have a facade of strength and
self-sufficiency even though she may feel very vulnerable. The
Capricorn woman is often very reserved in expressing affection,
and the Cancer woman will tend to interpret this as meaning that
her partner lacks emotional warmth. The Capricorn woman may have
a hard time dealing with the Cancer's neediness and oversensitivity,
as Capricorn believes very strongly in standing on your own two
feet. The Cancer woman will need to develop more self-reliance,
but the Capricorn woman will need to learn to express affection
more freely.
In
spite of these difficulties, these two women have much to offer
each other and their basic personalities blend well. They will
feel secure with each other and know that they can count on each
other. Together they will create a warm and comfortable home.
For both of them the sense of dependability is more important
than anything else and they can express love best when they feel
secure.
Sexually,
their natures and needs are very compatible, especially since
they are both able to be more uninhibited and intimate when they
can trust their partner.
Capricorn
and Virgo
The Virgo/Capricorn connection can be an ideally harmonious one.
These two women are earth signs and share a common concern with
stability and solid achievement. Each will appreciate the dependability
and sense of responsibility of the other. Hard work and caring
consideration of each other are priorities for both of them. They
know how to hang in there insistently when the relationship appears
difficult. They will be willing to generously give love and support
when needed during the hard times.
When
difficulties arise in this relationship they are generally minor.
Each has a tendency to have difficulty expressing her feelings,
which can cause them to withdraw out of fear. Verbal skills need
to be developed in a warm and accepting environment. The Virgo
woman tends to be restless and indecisive at times, and the Capricorn
woman approaches life directly and can be very decisive. The Virgo
woman may feel the Capricorn partner is pushing her into action
and the Capricorn woman may become impatient with her Virgo partner's
tendency to analyze and try to understand everything before she
acts.
They
can overcome these differences, and if they do they have a strong
likelihood of success. They are both intense and serious and conscientious
about changing past mistakes and not repeating negative behaviour
patterns in the future. The Virgo woman can help her Capricorn
partner to analyze the seeds of her problems, and the Capricorn
can help the Virgo learn dynamic self-reflection.
In
intimacy, there is a security and natural trust, and their approaches
to closeness are gentle and very consistent.
Capricorn
Loving Capricorn
The Capricorn/Capricorn combination generally works very well.
Capricorn is an earth sign, and is concerned with dependable and
secure structure, and both women approach life from the point
of view of creating stability and pursuing concrete goals. They
are both concerned with commitment and dependability in a relationship
and will appreciate each other's roundedness and consistent support.
Each will also respect the other's strength of character and ambition.
Both women are willing to create a relationship with a solid foundation,
but will also allow each other the freedom to pursue a demanding
career in the world. Both are hard-working and self-disciplined,
and will appreciate those qualities in each other.
The
problems between these two women are minor, but when they do arise
they are generally concerned with the difficulties both women
have in expressing intimate emotion. Both have profound feelings,
but both are also vulnerable and tend to put on a cool, detached
facade. Both are cautious and reserved in their approach to love,
and one woman may feel that the other feels strong in herself
and doesn't need her partner when actually they both need each
other more than it may appear. Both women can be personally insecure,
but they find it difficult to express their needs. As a result,
they may feel they can count on each other in all areas of life
but may have trouble telling each other how insecure they sometimes
feel. What may be annoying is that they are not only alike in
their positive qualities, but also in their less favorable ones,
as nothing is more grating than your own faults mirrored back
to you. They have high expectations of themselves and often drive
themselves as well as other people. This could become a barrier
in their relationship.
Because
they have so much in common they should be able to work out these
difficultities once they recognize them. The strenth and health
of their relationship is extremely important to both as they both
appreciate the structure the relationship gives to their lives
and the security that they give each other. This gives them the
motivation and the courage to open up to each other about their
insecurities and desires, and once they do confide in each other
they can have a very profound emotional relationship.
Sexually,
these two women can be very compatible especially if they are
able to talk about their deeper feelings with each other. They
will each understand the other's need for commitment and dependability,
and each will be willing to give her partner the reassurance that
she can be counted on. This will encourage the intimacy and feelings
of trust so necessary to Capricorns before they can open their
hearts. When they learn to play together in the bedroom, their
often serious approach to life can become light and joyous.
Capricorn
Loving Leo
The Leo/Capricorn combination brings together two strong individuals
who often do things very differently. Leo, a fire sign, is primarily
concerned with the creative expression of herself. Capricorn,
an earth sign, is most concerned with security and solid practical
achievement. Both women enjoy responsibility and being in positions
of leadership. The Leo woman's approach to leadership is concerned
with the feeling of well-being and enjoying the sense of self-confidence;
the Capricorn woman's approach to leadership is concerned with
her desire to do the right thing and to feel secure in her world.
The Leo woman is concerned with dependable structure and would
just as soon keep her own personality behind the scenes. The Leo
feels that the Capricorn is too motivated by duty and has a hard
time enjoying herself; the Capricorn feels that the Leo is too
egotistical and careless about practical details. Each, however,
will recognize the strength of character of the other.
When
problems arise between these two women it is usually a matter
of style. To the Leo woman her Capricorn partner is overly serious
and overly conscientious, while to the Capricorn the Leo is overly
concerned with theatrics and being charismatic. The Capricorn
woman feels that her Leo partner is too absorbed in gratifying
her own ego rather than doing a good job, and the Leo woman resents
her Capricorn partner's emphasis on duty and structure before
all else. The Leo also may have a problem with the Capricorn's
reserve in matters of love. She tends to interpret the Capricorn's
cool manner as a lack of affection, and Leo needs and demands
a lot of affection. She needs to realize that a Capricorn does
not easily express the depth of her feelings verbally or in actions.
The Capricorn tends to resist the Leo's emotional and physical
demands for appreciation, and will also resent any attempt the
Leo might make to control her.
In
spite of these differences, these women will be able to count
on each other once they have opened their hearts. The Leo woman
is loyal and steadfast, and the Capricorn woman is serious about
her commitments. Though their styles are different, these two
women will give each other unreserved support.
Sexually,
these two women may have to have patience with each other's differences.
The Leo woman is passionate and ardent in her sexual expression;
the Capricorn woman is very reserved in love even though she has
profound feelings. The Leo will be quicker and more spontaneous
in expressing sexual feelings and must appreciate that her Capricorn
partner is slower to warm up to love encounters.
Capricorn
Loving Sagittarius
The Sagittarius/Capricorn combination brings together two very
different women, but if they put out the effort they can create
a harmonious relationship. Sagittarius, a fire sign, needs the
freedom of individual self-expression above all. Capricorn, an
earth sign, seeks stability and the security of an established
routine. The Sagittarian woman, ever restless and seeking new
experiences, may rebel against the Capricorn woman's structures.
The Capricorn woman will sometimes feel uneasy with her Sagittarian
partner's restless and undependable ways. Both these women are
often oriented to being involved with large social concerns. The
Sagittarian woman seeks the broadest, most expansive point of
view and desires to change society for the better; the Capricorn
woman seeks a firm and responsible place within the social whole.
Both these women will appreciate the other's comprehensive social
vision.
These
two women have very different approaches to life: the Sagittarian
woman needs to have change and excitement in order to feel fulfilled,
and the Capricorn woman needs a sense of order and routine to
comfortable and change tends to make her feel insecure. The Sagittarian
may feel that her Capricorn partner is a bit stodgy and inhibited,
and the Capricorn woman may see her Sagittarian partner as a dreamer,
always looking for something to sooth her discontentment. She
may take this as a personal rejection by the Sagittarius.
In
spite of these problems, this relationship can work very well
if these two women can learn to accept and understand each other.
They can work very effectively together in the area of making
larger social changes. The Sagittarian will gain a more grounded
focus and an ability to organize her expansive ideas from the
Capricorn; vision beyond a concern with immediate practical reality
through the Sagittarian. The Capricorn can also offer her Sagittarian
partner the firm foundation that the Sagittarian really needs.
Both these women usually take a level-headed and common sense
view of life, and both will express their feelings in an up-front
manner as neither tends to be a game player.
Neither
woman is oriented toward spending a lot of time at home, and each
will appreciate the other developing a career and outside activities.
Both are intellectually inclined, so their home would be filled
with books and with friends who share their interests. They enjoy
gatherings where people are actively doing something about what's
happening in the world, and are not likely to be found at functions
where the purpose is just chit-chat.
Sexually
these two women may have to develop more capacity to communicate
on an emotional level to reach total satisfaction. The Sagittarius
is a fiery, passionate sign, and the Capricorn is more reserved
in the expression of her love. Sagittarius is more spontaneous
in her sexual expression and will need to alert her Capricorn
partner to her desires and then cultivate them in a patient manner.
Capricorn
Loving Pisces
The Capricorn/Pisces connection is generally a very harmouious
one although certain difficulties need to be worked out. Capricorn,
an earth sign, is concerned with dependability and structure before
all else; Pisces, a water sign, is fluid and free-flowing and
sensitively nebulous. Earth and water support and sustain each
other, and these two women will feel secure in a relationship
with each other. The Capricorn woman will feel the soothing warmth
of her Pisces partner, and the Capricorn's lonely vulnerablility
will be assuaged like a healing balm. The Pisces woman will appreciate
the strength and dependable support of her Capricorn partner,
and the sensitive Pisces will realize that she can always count
on her responsible Capricorn. Both these women will be sensitive
to the emotional fears and vulnerability each feels, and a deep
bond will usuallly be created between them.
The
difficulties that arise in this relationship are minor and generally
stem from the very different temperaments of these two women.
The Capricorn woman approaches life from the point of view of
practicality and stability; the Pisces woman is highly empathetic
and emotional and may resist being put into any mold because she
is so fluid. She works by dissolving boundaries that tend to separate
one person from another. The Capricorn woman feels more comfortable
when well-defined boundaries are present, and may sometimes find
the nebulousness and fluidity of her Pisces partner unsettling.
She may be concerned that she can't completely count on the Pisces
to be reliable or consistent, and the Pisces woman will sometimes
feel that her Capricorn partner is too concerned with the mundane
practical details of life. She feels stifled by the heavy structures
the Capricorn woman may try to impose. If the Capricorn woman
tries to put heavy obligations on her she may try to escape either
physically or into an emotional withdrawal. The Capricorn woman
may also be disturbed by the highly imaginative tendencies of
the Pisces woman, as the Capricorn wants to face harsh reality
while her Pisces partner may want to escape from it.
In
spite of these difficulties, these two women have enough concern
and sympathy for each other to overcome any problems. Each woman
feels the other's pain and wants to help. The Capricorn woman
can give her Pisces partner the strength of a secure structure
in life, and the Pisces woman can put her Capricorn partner in
touch with a deeper sensitivity to the inner levels of emotion.
Sexually,
these two women should have a compatible relationship. The main
difficulty between them will be the reserve of the Capricorn in
expressing her feelings. The Pisces woman needs to feel loved
and cherished, and may be uncertain that the Capricorn woman really
cares, not realizing that the Capricorn woman feels very deeply
for her but has trouble expressing this love. The Pisces will
teach her Capricorn partner the pleasures of touching and sensuousness
in their loving, and they can create a deep and abiding bond together
when communication barriers are bridged.
Capricorn
Loving Gemini
The Gemini/Capricorn combination can work fairly well, but there
are some big differences to be overcome. Gemini, an air sign,
loves collecting, analyzing, and discussing ideas for their own
sake; the other responsibilities of life will have to take a second
place. Capricorn, an earth sign, also has a strong intellect,
but the most important thing in life to her is concrete, practical
achievement and taking on responsibility. The Gemini woman needs
the freedom to experience new things and explore new ideas. The
Capricorn woman is happiest when she has serious, responsible
work to do. She can enjoy speculations on the philosophical meaning
of life, but she also wants to bring these ideas down to earth
and find some practical use for them.
Both
women can be adept at categorizing and organizing information.
They both enjoy finding the basic structure underlying things.
For this reason, they can relate well together in spite of their
differences. The Gemini will appreciate the clarity and organizing
power of her Capricorn's mind. The Capricorn woman admires the
ability of her Gemini partner to analyze and categorize things.
This appeals to the Capricorn's orderly mind. These two women,
then, will do best when they are relating to each other on an
intellectual level.
In
emotional matters there may be more to work out. The Gemini woman
wants a light touch when it comes to a relationship; she needs
a lot of stimulation and hates to feel hemmed in by demands and
obligations. The Capricorn woman needs steady constant support
from her partner, and needs security and wants to be able to count
on her partner to be there. To the Gemini woman, the Capricorn
may seem too serious and demanding. And to the Capricorn woman,
the Gemini may seem too nonchalant and undependable. If this relationship
is to work, both will need to make concessions.
If
the Capricorn woman can learn to play and loosen up, and if the
Gemini woman can learn to be more consistent and take more responsibility,
this relationship has some chance of success. The Gemini can become
grounded by her partner and the Capricorn can open up her mind
to new experiences. Sexually, these two women may need some work,
as the Capricorn must have a sense of stability to feel loved.
Capricorn
Loving Taurus
The Taurus/Capricorn combination is usually a harmonious and highly
productive one. Both Taurus and Capricorn are earth signs and
share a common concern with dependability, grounding, and solid
achievement. Both women know that they can count on each other
for support, both materially and emotionally. Both women will
have the security of knowing that they both will persevere in
making the relationship work over many obstacles. Each believes
in a relationship that grows and strengthens over time.
The
problems that arise between these two women are generally minor,
and when they occur are due to the subtle differences between
these two signs. The Taurus woman is slow, steady, and self-contained,
and unless there is active discord in her environment she is placid,
calm, and sure of herself. The Capricorn woman, by contrast, is
dynamic and ambitious; she constantly pushes herself to reach
some goal. She may feel deep uncertainties about her worth as
an individual unless she is meeting her own high-powered standards
(and even then she may not be sure). She tends to see life in
the most serious and profound light, and when she is not fantically
busy, she may spend hours brooding over the darker side of life.
The Taurus woman, while her emotions run deep, hates to contemplate
the gloomy side of life, and is a creature of spring and of vital,
growing life. She needs brightness and cheer around her, and may
have a hard time sympathizing with her Capricorn partner's melancholy
moods, even though that may be when the Capricorn needs her the
most. The Capricorn woman may feel the Taurus is complacent and
self-centered.
Another
minor problem is that the Taurus may feel that her Capricorn partner
is always driving herself and does not know how to relax. The
soothing warmth of the Taurus woman can be a balm in a harsh world
for the Capricorn woman, if she will only allow herself to enjoy
it. The Capricorn will sometimes get impatient with the Taurus'
slow-moving ways, and can help the Taurus woman to direct the
enormous Taurean resources toward some constructive goal. Outside
their personal emotional relationship, these women could get a
tremendous amount of work done together. Sexually, these two women
can be highly compatible. They both have strong sex drives and
are able to feel deep empathy for on another.
Capricorn
Loving Aries
The Aries/Capricorn combination can be a strong one, but there
may be some major problems to work out. Fiery Aries is impetuous,
willful, sometimes reckless; earthy Capricorn is cautious and
wants things carefully planned out. Capricorn needs structure;
Aries tends to resist structure or any form of restriction. Clashes
between these two women may be almost inevitable at times. At
the same time, there is a sensitive, insecure side of Aries (often
hidden behind a brash facade), that can appreciate the structure
and grounding that Capricorn knows how to provide, as long as
the Aries does not feel hemmed in. And the Capricorn woman can
appreciate her Aries partner's zest and initiative, as long as
the Capricorn's carefully built plans are not threatened.
The
Capricorn woman's approach to love emphasizes the idea of commitment
and dependability. The Aries woman is capable of great loyalty,
but she hates to feel tied to "should" and "shouldn't".
The Aries will feel she should have teh freedom to move with any
impulse, even if she chooses not to. Therefore, the Capricorn
woman may tend to feel insecure at times with her Aries partner,
and the Aries woman my resent it whenher Capricorn partner imposes
expectations and obligations on their relationship. One problem
here may lie in the two women's perceptions of each other. The
Aries may see the Capricorn as having an almost parental strength
which is both attractive and threatening, but in fact the Capricorn
woman often feels very insecure, and lonely beneath her cool mask
of efficiency. by the same token, the Capricorn may shrink from
the harsh verbal attack her outspoken Aries partner occasionally
hurls at her. She will feel deeply hurt, not realizing how insecure
the Aries woman may feel.
If
these two women can probe beneath the protective armor they both
wear, they can come to a deep meeting of hearts. As a couple,
this combination can make a great team, once they begin to work
together rather than against each other. They are both dynamos
of energy once given a project, and the two of them together can
accomplish what ten other people might not be able to do. They
are both very hard-working; neither one can stand to be idle for
long. When acting constructively, the Capricorn woman can help
discipline and direct her Aries partner's creative power. Sexually,
these two can be very compatible once they resolve some of their
emotional tensions.
