I was doing some reading on my sun sign capricorn and it read that capricorns look younger as they age. I know it doesnt mean they are 18 they are going to look 80 but it does indicate that capricorns age gracefully. The ruling planet of capricorn is saturn the planet of age. It said the cappys look "old" as babies and young children and that we are late bloomers (in the attractiveness sense) Are the some older capricorns here that can vouch for that? What about the capricorn skin issue I know that its true for me. I have issues with acne, eczema, sensitive, dry, dull looking skin that requires tons of attention and moisture.

Well, most Cappies i know [Sun/Moon/Venus] have skin issues, but they look alot better as they grow older.
Or it's the complete opposite - fantastic skin..

Looking other Cappy friends and ppl I know, I can say it can be true.

I'm a Capricorn with a Gemini Ascendant. I'm nearly 35. Most people who guess my age still put me in my 20s.

I finally have something to look forward to way. I have so many capricorns in my chart so I'm really really a cappy (I'm the only 18 year old prude I know). Yay!!

AG is 35? Noo wayyy! You look 27!

I got a couple of 10th H placements but i am not sure if those contribute in me getting mistaken for a 16 year-old [i'm 22].

Waterlily,

It does take us a bit of time to loosen up, and while you may feel behind socially in some way, you will recover and catch up with grace.

Growing up I was always seen as older than my age. I was at least 5'10" by the end of Junior High as was my Taurean best friend. We entered High School appearing as transfer students. We never came across as Freshmen.

It's weird that age perception should change like that: from looking older to looking younger.

My mother is a Cappy, and at 50, she looks just as good as she did when she was 30, no exaggeration. Except now she's loosened up a little, and that in fact makes her face look less serious, and more beautiful.

I completely agree. My mom is about 44 and many, many of my friends mistake her for... 20 or something. (She's Cappy , too.)

Like AG, my older sister is a Cap with Gem rising. She's 30 & looks like she's in her early 20s. Last year, she got carded while buying a lottery ticket, and you only need to be 18 for that. I think AG and my sister lucked out and were born with the forever youthful combo.

My sister has always looked younger than she is. But everyone in my immediate family looks younger than they are, even the ones w/o a Cappy influence.

The only planet I have in Cap is Venus, but my most crowded house is the 10th. Pullen lists Cap as a stronger influence in my chart than my Sun and Moon signs. I don't know about that, but I do frequently get comments about looking younger than my age. I sometimes worry that I'll have one year when I'll age rapidly and catch up & even surpass my actual age. That's often the thought I have when people say how young I look.

Cappy Sun, Merc, and Venus here in 5th house. In high school I was getting handed the children's menu my jr year or so. I still get carded. My midwife recently told me, "You look better now than you did when I first started seeing you. You look 32 going on 17." I never did have many skin issues growing up. Not much more than an occasional blemish anyhow. Perhaps the 5th house helps me as well.

I looked about 18 from the ages of 13-25. I'll be 36 and I still get proofed and hit on by 22-year-old guys...yippee!!! (Actually, I get hit on more by young guys now than I did when I was younger!!! lol)

The bad news...my skin IS very sensitive. It has its good days and its bad days, but sometimes I think I'm gonna have zits in between my wrinkles! Ewwwwwww! lol

I'm a Capricorn Sun with Sag Venus - which is a "youthful" Venus. I was a tall kid (reached full height by 11) so I was always thought to be older. When people think you are older, they expect you to act more mature. That was such a drag! We poor Caps....

I was able to brazenly walk into convenience stores and buy beer for parties when I was 16. But once I got to be around 23, I started getting carded for alcohol. I think my mid-20s were when I started looking "young." I'm in my 30s and haven't gotten wrinkles yet. It drives my friends in their 20s crazy that I look younger than them. And unlike most of my friends, I feel like the older I get, the better I look.

And I also know other Cap Suns who maintain a youthful look. The two Cap Ascendants I know may act older and wiser, but they have beautiful skin far younger than their ages. Another Cap benefit is good teeth! And with good bone structure, they usually photograph quite well.

Venus in Cap people like Björk, Cindy Crawford, Tyra Banks, Elijah Wood, Owen Wilson, JFK Jr, etc. seem to either keep youthful looks or get more attractive as they age.

I have sun, venus and mercury in Cap ( so am very Capricorn)and have been told I look about 5 years younger than I am. But might have something to do with not settling down yet and having children, hanging around with people younger than me who are my friends, etc. ! Family is quite youthful looking for their age as well.

But I think the thing with Caps is they are so crippled with fear and insecurity when they are younger. They fear rejection above anything else. However, in the natural passage of time they grow into themselves and can relax more, become more self aware,confident and able to be themselves without worrying about how other people think of them. Thats when their personalities start to shine.

Took me until I reached my thirties to be able to be myself (maybe after the saturn return ?).

I am far happier now. I was so shy and very serious and miserable when I was younger ;-(

It's hard being a Cap when you are younger :-)

lol. Purple chick I just read your recent post. I appreciate the humour! I have Sun Cap and Moon Gemini as well. Do you try to rationalise all your feelings as well ?

Bad skin ? Nah I got the classical Venus in Cap beauty with the good skin. With the subtle "I am so aloof". If only I had some confidence !

I have saturn conjunct ascendant, with saturn being prominent because it's the handle of my bucket and the focal point of a yod...I have venus in sag...

I am 36 and people constantly think I am in my 20's. Sometimes I'm mistaken for as young as 21-22, and I do get carded for cigarettes(!!). I thought smoking was supposed to age you...

Anyway, I'm wondering if it's because of the saturn conjunct ascendant.

Either way, I am enjoying it for as long as it lasts!

oh, I do have not-so-great skin - sensitive and acne-prone - I've always blamed saturn conjunct AC for that, too.

Mustang - wow, I'm surprised you're 36. Obviously I can't see you (look away from your window, dammit, that movement was not me!), but you have a youthful vibe about you. (Youthful, not immature .) I've had you pegged for mid 20s. Probably a lot of that has to do with how you remind me of an Aqua friend of mine who's 25. So maybe Saturn grants you not only a youthful appearance physically, but also a youthful persona. Or maybe the persona is more your Aqua & Saggy influences. You have the best of all worlds.

Jane:

Thanks and get away from my window, damn it!

Just say it...I'm immature...

I think I probably do have a youthful (at times) manner. It depends on who's leading that day, aqua/sag or saturn, though. When it's saturn, I can be pretty old-ish.

I never thought of aqua as being youthful, sag, yes, but not aqua. Hmm...why do you say that? I'm intrigued.

I sometimes think of my aqua/sag mixture as a curse, because it's so...inflammable. I say sometimes, because I generally like it a lot, but I sometimes yearn for a water personal planet. Thank God for my earth AC!

I remind you of an aqua friend? That's cool.

Venus Trine Pluto...you're asking ME if I rationalize/analyze my feelings? Maybe you need to ask YOURSELF that question! (He he...get it? I'm thinking you do if we have similar senses of humor. And yes, I'm kidding. )

To really answer your question...YES! I totally do that! It drives my roomie/bff crazy (she has a leo moon lol). I think it works to my benefit in some ways, because I'm always questioning why a person says or does something and I can often sense a person's motivations, etc...

Btw, I also have venus trine pluto (actually, I have a grand trine with venus, pluto and moon in the air signs). Based on your username, I presume you feel this is a significant aspect in your chart, so I'm wondering how you think it affects you. (Gemini moon - gotta ask questions!!!)

Finally, may I say that I'm jealous of your lovely venus skin! In all fairness, my skin isn't HORRIBLE...I think the biggest part of the problem is that I sometimes get lazy about taking care of it.
