T O P I C R E V I E WThe Mutable Night ForceNB: I'm very sorry and apologise for the shallowness and self-centeredness of this post. However, if you take part, it may stop me from driving my friends nuts by going on about this.QUESTION: If a Capricorn says he's going to do something for you in the distant future, do you reckon he's-a) Just pulling your legb) Trying to fob you off (shut you up)c) Going to do itd) Will have forgotten ?e) Any other reason you can think of...sue gIf he is very typical of his sign C) of coursexxxLibraSparkleC, definitely.I couldn't imagine any of the Cappies I know not following through with anything.They are so responsible. YangI would say a combination of B & C! trillianI would say it depends on which type of Cappy the person in question is. There is the Cappy who has become wise, and the type of Cappy who is completely self-absorbed.The head of the company for which I work is the latter type, who will promise you many things and deliver few if any, and charge you for the delivery, too.I'm not a Cappy, but have three prominent Cappy placements, and I do my best to keep my promises. (Which is not to say I consider myself wise. )------------------The less I seek my source for some definitive, the closer I am to fine. -Indigo GirlsAcousticGodI would say it depends on what the thing is, whether or not he wants to do it, and how much he likes you. I don't think Caps are above blowing people off, honestly. We're not flaky as a rule, but we do have that Cardinal self-interest thing going.Sorry! You know I love you. The Mutable Night Force Hey thanks to everyone who's taken part so far, thankyou!Yang- lol trillian, I can't comment on wiseness here, as I don't exactly know! But the Cap in question has a Sag Moon & Scorp rising, if this helps?AG, hey dude that's good, you're helping. Wants to do it- um, he said 'it would be fun' or something... Likes me? As a friend... um... yes? I hope.Personally, at the moment d) gets my vote. It's the most likely.AcousticGodYou think he'll forget? Remind him. If it sounds like fun to him he won't want to forget. I admit to having a bad memory about things at times, but I'd think that Scorp ascendant would help in that area.kiwigirlMy brother is a cap and i reckon C too however if he is really really busy he does sometimes forget but if you give him a gentle nudge towards remembering he's right at rain!kiwiThe Mutable Night ForceThanks, Yeah, all I need to remember is 'gentle nudge and not 'constant bugging' otherwise I'll put him off...!However, he IS going to be very busy next year........ work work work :sigh:Gemini NymphCaps have a strong desire to display integrity, and so they often deeply want to keep their word. That doesn't mean they always will, but many would have the most sincere desire to do so. They hate failing, being/feeling like failures, and letting people down, because they want to be the one people can rely on and trust. However, they can have a nasty, cynical, sarcastic side that can incline them to be deliberately insincere to people they want to repell ir passive-aggressively insult, usually people they look down on or strongly dislike for some Cappy reason (and they always have a reason, at least in their mind). Usually if a Cap doesn't like you and is trying to mock you by jerking your chain or exposing your gulliability, you'll figure it out before long...unless you're really dense. In which case the Cap will have a field day with you. So it could be C or it could E, and that would be to intentionally make you look like a gulliable buffoon because he/she doesn't like you. lioneye68Mutable - it all depends on the circumstances surrounding what they said. They are problem solvers, and can say things, under pressure, just to diffuse the situation. BUT - once said, they are nagged by their own conscience to come through. So, if they have concerns about it, which may have been the reason for you having to push them, they are going to begin PUSHING YOU BACK - to satisfy their own sensibilities and concerns about why they didn't offer to do this in the first place. You'll have to do your part, in other words. Nothing comes easy with Capricorn. If you earn it, you'll get it. If you don't, they'll keep reminding you of why you aren't getting that and what they need to see from YOU first, especially if YOU made it an issue. Be prepared for that. PeriCappy Rising here HE IS DEFINITELY GOING TO DO THIS! ------------------It all depends on how we look at things, and not how they are in themselves. Carl G. JungThe Mutable Night ForceHmmmm....Thanks, Gem Nymph, lioneye, Peri! GN- I don't think it's his intention to embarrass or mock me... and as far as I know he doesn't have any deep-seated resentment of me either! I hope lioneye- The circumstance is he basically sort of said he'd take me out for my sixteenth next year. He hasn't said he wants anything in return or anything.... but it seems so far away I can't be sure of the possibility of it happening!Thanks for both of your help!Peri- I love that goat emoticon!!!! Sooo cute! lollioneye68Oh. Ok...Well, in that case, just keep being a good friend and a decent humanoind and it will happen, if you stay in touch. You can count on it - but will you still want that when the time comes? He may have more staying power in the friendship than you. He may bore you to peices before then, and you may fall out of touch.The Mutable Night Force quote:He may bore you to peices before then, and you may fall out of touch. How cheery, lioneye!!!!! Well, yes, that might happen... but if it does, then I guess it was never meant to be!lotusheartoneCapricornKing of PentaclesThe most well rounded King there isYes, he will follow throughafter much time and considerationBut he KNows the real reasonof Life lessonsfor he hasthe sternest TeacherSaturnHe has the patternto the fabirc weWeaveNever to decieveonly to shed LightLove and Light to ALLDeepIYMYou should have seen my Cappy English teach Senior year Highschool...

I couldn't imagine any of the Cappies I know not following through with anything.
They are so responsible.
The head of the company for which I work is the latter type, who will promise you many things and deliver few if any, and charge you for the delivery, too.
I'm not a Cappy, but have three prominent Cappy placements, and I do my best to keep my promises. (Which is not to say I consider myself wise. )
