The Capricorn
From early childhood, most Capricorns are self-disciplined, serious, determined, mature and able to persevere in the face of adversity. While other signs are given to flights of fancy and daydreams, Capricorns always have their feet on the ground. One of the most stable signs in the zodiac; Capricorns are capable of exercising enormous discipline when they need to. Capricorns are also great listeners, and because they are enormously patient they can spend hours listening to the stories and lives of others. This special Capricorn trait gives Capricorns great insight into other people's lives, traditions and personal histories. Capricorns tend to be very cultured and knowledgeable about the world and culture as a whole.
Capricorns care a great deal about their personal appearance and how they are perceived. They are usually very neatly dressed, or very stylish - often with a keen sense of fashion and style. Usually impeccably though conservatively dressed, they prefer the finer things in life - as long as they are not flashy or draw too much attention.
Capricorns have "big" personalities. They tend to be generous, honest, interesting and tactful. They are always patient and have an air of wisdom about them. Capricorn personality is one that is firmly grounded in reality and who will consistently be the voice of reason in a chaotic world. He understands why the rules are in place and conforms accordingly.
Rational and Intellectual
Capricorns are very logical and intellectual, which can make them seem detached or even cold because they don’t show their emotions easily for fear of being vulnerable. Inwardly quiet and shy, their feelings take second place to their mind and intellect. But they are actually quite sensitive with those they care about, even when they can be ruthless in business and when going after what they want. Their perfectionist natures can lead to obsessive-compulsive behaviours if they’re not careful. These tendencies, combined with the Capricorn work ethic, make them excellent business partners and providers
Capricorns often suffer from low self-esteem, as they tend to be very hard on themselves. Capricorn may not be the self-confident pillar of strength as they appear to be when their power or authority is compromised, they may make flawed decisions that could cause everything they worked for to go down in flames in a spectacular way.
When they are feeling anxious or low, others rarely know it. Capricorns don’t usually bring their problems to others, but instead suffer in silence. They find it hard to open up to other people and so have difficulty establishing deep relationships, though when they do they tend to be very loyal, reliable and trustworthy friends. Capricorns have good memories, both for those who have helped them and those who have harmed them. Being honourable by nature, most will repay a debt or a good deed with something equivalent or better, and some will repay a bad deed with revenge.
On Career
Capricorns are very ambitious people, and with their innate people-skills, immaculate presentation and natural smarts, they tend to do well in the workplace. Because they are immensely patient and restrained, Capricorns tend to perform especially well in high-stress environments that would be difficult for other signs to handle. Capricorns also do extremely well in management roles, where juggling multiple personality types and exercising extreme patience are required.
Most Capricorns go through more than the usual amount of hardship, but the bulk of this hard karma tends to occur in the first half of life, as if the Capricorns want to get it all over with at once so that they can move on to better times in the second half. In keeping with this trend, Capricorns have a tendency to age in reverse, looking younger than their biological age as they grow older and becoming more youthful and laid back when they reach middle age and beyond.
On Relationships
While Capricorn is very pragmatic in most areas of life -- this is sometimes less true in matters of the heart, where Capricorns can exhibit unusual jealousies. For Capricorn, love is the source of all inspiration. It is also pretty scary territory, because many enchanted Capricorns become nervous and shy. They fear giving their heart away, because they fear losing themselves. "I love you" is not a phrase that flows easily from their lips, but once it is spoken, you can rest assured that it is true. Cherish the sound of this phrase, because you may not hear it every day.
Capricorns make great lovers. In relationships they are very attentive, and very patient at all times. Most Capricorns keep their promises and fulfil their obligations. They believe in commitment, sticking it out for the long haul. These loyal and devoted creatures loathe being dependent, but do expect to be nurtured. Behind closed doors all illusions are stripped, and caution is thrown to the wind, because Capricorns immerse themselves in their lover’s complete satisfaction. Unless you've had the experience, it is hard to envision that proper and respectful Capricorn really knows how to get their freak on!
