Never heard that one before but don't let it get to your head. There is no logic to back that up, sometimes you will come across information that is just nonsense. I am more than willing to accept unpleasant aspects in my chart if it makes sense. Sometimes I will come across something ugly and it will be an unconscious trait that I will recognize in myself upon discovering new info. You just have to think for yourself sometimes. It is alot like using Sun signs alone to explain compatibility. As a Sagittarius, Virgos and Pisces are my worst matches but in my experience those are the signs I enjoy being around the most.
Like you I have a Cap desc & Sag Saturn. I also have a million other things as well. It doesn't matter what chart you are born with so much as how you use it. If you are accepting this as being truth then you might find that it is because of what you are projecting.
In my experience there is little to no truth in that statement. I do not say this to stroke my own ego, I actually feel weird saying this but I am speaking factually as I feel it might help you see things in a new light & recognize your own power. I have very magnetic aspects that have always provoked very strong reactions from people, good and bad. Just by simply being. The responses have taken on many forms throughout my life, it wasn't until more recently that I learned to fully control certain things.
I have always been very quiet & it was that trait that people have attacked my entire life. It caused an incredible amount of pain emotionally. I turned to drugs and alcohol as a teen to mask this pain like many do. I grew to love this trait though & wanted to be that strong silent type instead of the insecure shy girl who felt she owed people something for some incoherent reason. I changed myself in so many ways for other people which took years of deprogramming. My addictions nearly killed me a few times & I really didn't care, I just kept going. It took devine intervention to kick me in the right direction.
Today the very traits that were once a weakness are now my greatest sources of strengths. It is all about how you choose to express them. Love your chart because it is you & it will always be you.
If you do find this DSC B.S to ring true with you then perhaps there is a very good reason. Don't look at it in a negative light because it is temporary. Don't focus on that and just surrender to whatever you are attracting and role with it. Turn towards things that promote self growth. Be the person you would want to be with. Strong woman who are comfortable in their own skin are attractive regardless of where your DSC is. It transcends physical appearance. Feeling & thinking the way you currently do isn't going to attract any quality men. Like attracts like after all. You have the option not to sleep with someone. If you think that's all a man wants then don't even mess with him. Know your self worth. If a guy is worth it then he will respect that. If he is just a sleeze then he'll move on once he realizes you aren't playing his game & if that is the case then bullet dodged. Love appears the minute you don't need or care if you ever have it because you love yourself & need no validation from others.
Maybe the reason behind why this author believes this is because of what that DSC needs in relationships.
Here, lemme give some examples.
These are descriptions I just copied from the first site that popped up on a web search of DSC.
So here is what it says on water DSC:
Cancer:
Here we seek out people who mother us or nurture us, who look after us, but, because we have a Capricorn Ascendant, we may find them too clingy or overemotional. These nurturing qualities are ones we need to develop within ourselves.
Scorpio:
These people attract a partner who brings intensity and crisis. Someone who wants us to merge deeply within an intimate and passionate relationship.
Pisces:
We may find ourselves attracted to those who are more emotionally open than we are, they may be a partner who needs looking after or who is suffering in our eyes and who may have a deep creativity or spirituality that we lack.
Water is very feminine which men just are innately going to gravitate to, there is no way around it. These people would have earth Ascendants, giving them the image of practicality, grounded, patience (that was creepy, someone on TV said patience while I was writing that...) anyway, these woman give of the appearance of being very level headed & possess common sense. Something rare in this world right now. Now whether or not these woman actually own those traits is another story. But they project that energy. While these DSC men may very well just naturally find the most attractive, it seems like this one is one woyld also be more likely to attract karmic, short term & shallow relationships. Obviously not always but I say this because the initial attraction to the earthy appearance of the ASC may fade once the couple gets more comfortable of one another. The woman's core personality could lack those traits if not genuine. The asc will lose its appeal once the guy realizes those attractive traits were more of a mirage. The water descendants I would think would be more prone to turn more over bearing emotionally if the woman doesn't have a mature hold on this aspect. They are going to have a habit of becoming overly emotional in the relationship. Like Cancer, it kind of mentions what I am getting at, but they could feel they are responsible for the emotional well being of their S.O. and ignore their own out of fear they may lose their man if they do. The home & family is what drives Cancer & I can see how this DSC could become over bearing in a relationship.
Scorpio has that raw sexual power & what is hotter than that. But sex alone won't hold a relationship together alone. The woman may come overly possessive & intense. It can be vindictive & passive aggressive & eventually to much for the man.
Pisces wants someone emotionally damaged because they wish to heal and nuture these tortured souls. They do it out of love but it isn't their job. They put their partner first and ignore their own needs much like Cancers but I think cancers keep this trait specific to the members of their family. Pisces tend to treat all relationships this way. Pisces are so sensitive and open emotionally. They have a difficult time understanding why others don't express their emotions the same way and can become very invasive and take it personally.
Unless these DSC are emotionally secure & mature, eventually it will crumble. Unhealthy emotions will eventually become too much for one of the partners & a relationship can't survive on detrimental emotions. These woman may have an easier time attracting relationships, but a harder time sustaining them.
Fire Descendants are going to require fun, excitement and attract a very masculine energy. They're not good with vulnerable emotions. Air ascendants appear light, detached, logical & they are good at holding a conversation. Fire and air are outgoing and sociable. Men looking to for a quick lay probably see these woman as being easy and think "hey why not" they probably assume the woman is on the same page. They are easy to approach and talk to. The fire Descendant is going to respond positively to the natural energy a guy who is trying his luck is going to give off. It is naturally going to take on the traits specific to fire signs. Fire signs are just more egotistical by nature because of the strong fire element. They are going to be using their Sun/Mars/Jupiter when doing their mating call. Fire Descendants actually seem like they are the most likely to get hurt because of this. Men might not take them seriously & if they are not on the same page that reality could hurt. These people need to be the most cautious and patient in order to overcome the reckless, impatient traits of the fire sign. These people would benefit in taking things slow and develop a friendship first so they know the guy is worth their affection.
Air descendants are much less emotional in relationships and keep things light and fun. They seem to be more interested in having someone to talk to and chill with than having a romantic relationship. They are naturally detached emotionally so it may be hard for them to express what it is they want out of that relationship. They're more fearful that if they were to express their true emotions they may lose that person as a friend as well. Fire ascendants may seem too masculine for the man to be sexualy attracted to. That fire expression is easy for them to relate to and they feel they can talk to these woman like they can the guys. These woman need to learn emotional vulnerability as not to be a victim of unrequited love. Air isn't is a rational masculine energy, not aggressive like fire. I think Air has potential to have some of the most harmonious, rewarding and long lasting relationships, romantic and platonic once they overcome the difficulties that come with it. They would have that friendship as a foundation and any romantic feelings that may come from it are going to be the most genuine because this wasn't built on physical attraction. It was the mind,heart & soul the man fell in love with. The woman's personality is what triggered that attraction. This gives the feel of a true soulmate bond.
I see earth descendants as being a true gift because these woman have no interest in weak, immature, irresponsible men. Because of this is exactly the reason why these descendants may have the most difficult time getting attention from men. Key words: weak, immature & irresponsible. There is absolutly no shortage of these types in the world. These descendants are demanding traits that too few possess. The earth energy, regardless of the woman's maturity, is stable and the native is naturally going to repel any man not possessing their qualities. Whether we are aware of what this happening or not. Until the woman has developed the personality traits of her Descendant she isn't going to attract the types of men she needs. If anything these woman have the potential to be the one men find most desirable because it challenges them. I can vouche for these descendants having the fewest amount of partners but why is that bad? I had my first relationship at 19 and it continued for 10 years. There were several breaks & I had a couple quick flings but no one that I was interested in actual dating.
This was a karmic relationship but I learned alot. I had a soulmate relationship with a long time friend. I left my ex in 2016 and he got a divorce in 2019 and so we kind of dated, but this was years after I had met my TF in person so while I cared for this SM very much. The attraction wasn't like it had been. I wasn't emotionally available and anything else would just be me succumbing to insecurities.
Anyway, I need to wrap this up. But look at the earth traits and what is needed from that dsc. My capricorn Descendant definantly rings true. The water asc could make us seem to sensitive and emotional for some men. Specially since we not only need them to have these earthy traits, we appear to be an emotional burden that they will be expected to take care of too and who wants that?
When it comes to Capricorn in particular, these are descendants will take longer to fully develop because of the nature of the sign. Our Saturn return doesn't take place until we are around 30yo, we just require more patience if we want a meaningful relationship. It is around the same age that our ascendant becomes more subdued. We have grown into our Sun by this time and don't feel the need to protect it. We can handle the emotions of our moon better here too. We will always carry our ascendant but it transforms and takes new forms like everything else. Our physical appearance still takes on the form of our ascendant though. Water signs embody that raw feminine energy & once we overcome the negative traits of the ascendant, we will embody that delicate femininity without coming off as being overly emotional & sensitive & fragile.
Idk, that is just how I see it. No chart is doomed, like I said it 100% relies on how it is utilized.
"I think, therefore I am."
Hopefully you can decipher my ramblings.
