You know how people like to describe symptoms without a proper understanding of the actual disease?I just watched this video on Capricorn mars and I felt so understood. I don't think any other youtuber has done such a thorough job. Video starts at 6:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KBzbgzPVbM She has other videos but I have gone through them yet.

Just listened to it too. My cap mars is retrograde in 4th house. Tbh I don't feel like I was that attuned to my cap mars when I was a kid, but the part about not letting people see I'm sweating or suffering to save face, that is true. I do, however, feel that I might be channelling mars cap as I get older.IP: Logged |

I loved that! I think it's the first that really fit a Cappie Mars I'm close to (though haven't seen in many years, but we still email each other) and said things I hadn't attributed to the placement but are true of him, like how sensitive they are if you get into their stuff, and how protective they are of their dignity. You just don't mess with his stuff, he'd get tense if you so much as picked up a hammer of his without asking him first, though he was normally laid back. One of the most haunting things is that when he discovered his cat dead, he noted it casually, wrapped the body in the towel, talked calmly about burying his cat the next day (as it was night), and went downstairs. We thought he was taking it surprisingly well, but while he was down in the basement we heard the most heartbreaking wail and sob that brought us both to tears just hearing it as it expressed such grief and anguish. He came back up the stairs a couple of minutes later without showing the slightest distress and we didn't let him know we heard him as this was something private to him, at least until he could get a grip on his feelings himself. I thought of that again as she talked about how emotional they are, but don't like to show it to others. He was always trying to get me to reach my potential. He avoided putting pressure on me, but he was persistent, and when he was very impressed with a tarot reading I did, he couldn't understand why I wouldn't pursue it more, which was probably his Cappie Mars.

^^^yes, we care way too much and we know the rest of the world don't care half as much as we do. Not giving people the pleasure of getting a rile out of us is another thing. I think other youtuber always say we are subdued and such but they don't identify the fact that we don't have time to be in other people's face IP: Logged |

With running a side business, I'm extremely particular about promising and delivering on time. Basically if I tell my client that I'm going to get something done on a certain day for them, I make sure I get it done that day (I make sure I can do it on that day too first), and I make sure I get the work out of the way first thing unless I have some other stuff on. I'm pretty hard on myself if I fail to deliver and I don't like it when people promise to do things for me but then forget or are slack about it. I get pretty angry about that. I want to be trusted by others, and from my point of view the way to achieve that is by saying I'll do something and actually going through with it. That'll get me more business because people will see that. IP: Logged |

I found myself agreeing with most of what she said. I'm a late Capricorn mars, with moon opposite mars so I'm not very patient, but that's just my aspects interfering lol------------------

I have Capricorn Mars Rx in the 4th house and I agree with what everyone has said so far. I think the trademark signature of this position is the concept of "goal setting" in whatever this means to the native. It doesn't necessarily mean "my goal is to become CEO" in a career sense, but could rather mean DAILY goals to help keep things running smoothly and efficiently. Note *efficiently* - as the Youtuber said in the video, DON'T waste my time. If you're not ready to get it done, as she said, don't call me. Don't just talk about doing something and never follow through either, that drives me NUTS. False promises tie into that too. If you say you're going to do something for me, please do it! It's that whole mentality of setting out to do something and then getting it done, even if it's day to day life. I always plan my days according to what the most efficient use of my time is and what I can/can not get away with not doing on a particular day, at home and at work. Some might consider it laziness to avoid certain tasks but if it doesn't fit the "plan" then I don't see it as being lazy, just not worth my time to do it at that moment. For example, if I wake up on a Saturday knowing I have to do XYZ around the house and do a load of laundry, I WILL do it and work like a horse to get it done, no matter what comes up or how tired I get. I'll plan my week out and work days out according to what I need to get done in the same way. If something can wait, I'll postpone it. I certainly don't "rush" to get something done if it's not necessary. The "never let them see you sweat" rings true as well and I get told this at work all the time. I'm always the calm and collected one even if I'm boiling on the inside, and I think this brings other people comfort especially when they're in a flap. I am also the LEAST likely to show emotion, especially to people I don't know very well. Only those I can trust fully have seen me cry (having a Scorpio Moon might have something to do with this). I'm also not very excitable which my mom loves to point out. Again, only those very close to me would ever see that side of me (if I ever was excited about something). If it's a waste of time/energy/resources to do/feel/say/want/have something, it won't be done...period! IP: Logged |

@Margym: hahaha, I do think people tend to mistake our lack of excitement as lack of passion. Capricorn placements tend to worry over how much effort does it take to sustain something in the long runIP: Logged |
