*Ahhhhhhh.. makes sense.

as an outsider though, I have gotten PO'ed before by people's posts.

*you say to yourself, "Really?" then laugh, cuz you remember and go "Oh yeah! She certainly has!"

Also as an outsider, I can see that there are several things being blown out of proportion.
I think the 'says' have been had, and maybe the communication can start now.....???

I actually didn't get the sense that Acoustic god is someone I have seen here before.. at least not someone who has bothered me....
I , for the record, think EVERYONE should re read lots about astrology, especially the books/sites that keep an open mind, and don't hold obvious grudges on signs.
I mean .. I am a Scorpio.. can you imagine the slack I get from both lay-people and Astrologers, when they assume things of my character based upon my sign, and what they have heard, therefore suppose ???
We can all say this, and we can all get hot under the collar.

I'd love to be the impartial third party, and to prove it, I will say...
I have a Capricorn Moon, a Cappy Brother and Mother.. so I know Caps (and I know they are a very misunderstood sign)
I will also say I LOOOOOOOVE Aries, I always get along famously with them, and I am married to one.
These are experiences in my own life, and believe me, that doesn't mean they are ALL like MY peeps are..... and my mind is open.. but it helps me to say with assurance......

You're not going to teach me anything with this barrage. I still know my sign and myself better than you do, and I still know that despite any relationship you may have with Capricorns that is doesn't answer for the multitude of Aries I've known in my life. I bring up examples close to me, because only by living with someone do you get to know everything about them.

I did amend myself in my last post, and told you to go ahead with your interpretations of what Capricorns are. Having seen an imagination crazy enough to assert that I'm from India, I feel pretty vindicated in saying my original assertion. So much for taking the high road (and showing me how wonderful and gracious Aries are) eh, teacher?

I love how now you assume so much to be able to assert things about my family and myself. What brings on this insistence on making claims about my life? The only assertion I've made about you is one that is readily seen by anyone reading this thread. You imagine things the way you want them to be. You've assumed a whole hell of a lot about me, and your 'case' couldn't be more flawed.

What's more, you've taken a post about a relationship and made it about yourself. You hijacked it with false accusations, and you've tried to manipulate the emotions of people that might read this. Oh, the brutally honest Capricorn admits that a 14 year old may not ever get the respect they want from a Capricorn. Heaven forbid! That's an honest answer, though. Capricorns like who they like, and respect who they respect. We do the best we can with everyone else, but that doesn't mean that someone who's looking for the respect of a Capricorn is ever necessarily going to get it. It's just the way it is. It's not demeaning in any way. It's an insight.

As for the things I've said about my family, why don't you tell me why it is that I feel the way I do about them. Clearly it's not their fault whatsoever for you have a fantastic dream about how my life must be. Why don't you tell me the affect they've had on my life since you know so much? Incidentally, I haven't reached my Capricornian potential yet, but there's still a vast amount of time ahead of me, and I'm trying to explore what this Gemini and myself might be able to create together.

There's a thing in Astrology called intuition, and you've proven for me that you lack it plain and simple. From linguistics to the way you believe I treat people you've taken the opposite of what is true and tried to come up with a lie to discredit me and regain the wise image you're trying to cultivate.

I didn't get the point, and won't take the point from you. You're too abrasive. What should compel me to listen or take to heart anything you have to say?

Civility lessons from a person that hijacks my thread, insists that I'm from another culture (that I'm a liar even), and then goes on a smear campaign just because she's wrong? That's an interesting concept. Please tell me more.

AcousticGod, I think you said this, I mean I can understand that in your experience this might be true and stuff, and your not wrong and you certainly have a unique way of looking into things, but I guess for me, that really doesn't hold true for me, When people like me, I feel so happy and admired and I really like them too (well most of the time) that I always try to put up my good image and try to help them and naturally respect them, and sometimes I like people who might? not like me that much. So we really can't say, however not saying your wrong, it depends on your experiences, just pointing it out, but your not wrong (this is what the third time I have said this?:P)

I think what you said is true as well. I enjoy being popular with people as well. There are two things that lead me to write what I wrote.

First, in an aquaintance type situation I think our response to someone could run the gamut. We could really like them in return, we could sorta like them in return, we could be indifferent to them in return, or we could not like them in return. It sounded to me in that thread that the person had an absolute fascination with a Capricorn, and therefore I thought the most logical answer may be that he/she will not likely be liked to the degree that he/she likes the Capricorn.

The second reason I wrote that is due to Capricorn's innate superiority complex. Intellectually we may not actually feel superior, but we do always try to stay above the fray. You and I both said that part of the reason we're mysterious is because people don't want to hear our criticisms, so we keep quiet. This is the other reason why I thought the Capricorn admirer may never be liked to the same degree that he/she is liking the Capricorn.

So that's why I said that I think it's, "the unfortunate truth." It's not that I don't think a Capricorn would be civil or even friendly toward an admirer, I was just trying to be as completely honest as possible about it.

i wanna tell u first off that i luv u, and that yes caps are misunderstood, like what Pix said. i can totally see that u didnt mean to attack Aries as a sign...although we all do have tendencies to go one way or another based on personal experience. I really havent seen one person on this thread yet that hasnt said something that could really be considered offenseive or touch a nerve....including myself, but u know, most caps i know, can take a HUGE MOUNTAIN of shiyet and criticism, without getting enraged. maybe thats why you feel others are capable of it too. hehe

we're not all as strong as yall caps!

i told u when i first saw u posting that id like for u to open up. i like u.

Aries-chick's inability to see me for who I am is highly offensive, and it brings me to a point where I don't feel like being nice about things. She's made up my country of origin, and called me a liar when I sought to show otherwise. This is precisely the kind of Aries quality that makes them so reprehensible to me. If all Aries would stop imagining things the way they want to see them, then maybe it would be easier for me to open my heart to them.

The truth is, though, as a Capricorn I can't trust them. Capricorn's trust issues are well documented. We act dominate, because we don't trust others to do things as well as we do. Aries is about initiation, and Capricorn is about completion. Aries are about just doing it, and Capricorn are about making sure to do it right. Aries are guided by the god of war, and Capricorn is guided by planet of discipline and order. War and Order don't go together. I've never seen anything claiming that Capricorn and Aries are a good match for anything. I think there's a reason for that.

First off, isn't Capricorn's planet the planet of Karma? Isn't that why we always make it in the end?

Again..more generalizations about one sign or another. It's just the way you think and I can't change that. You're the only person who can.

Every sign is generalized in astrology. That's what makes it so fascinating. That's why we turn to astrology for answers, in order that we might learn the generalizations that concern us and our signs.

What I said that started this whole thing is so incredibly small, and it contains truth, but instead of just taking it for what it was, instead of acknowledging that I might know what I'm talking about, you decide to go on a PR campaign against me. Way to teach me how to be a better person.

It isn't my place to make someone understand something they aren't willing to open their minds to yet.. and possibly aren't able to comprehend yet, based on their past experiences. Everyone has certain lessons to learn and we all get to them when we are ready to do so..

You're still pulling the same sh*t, and I'm still going to call you on it. You can't say that you're taking the high road while simultaneously trying to bash me.

It's true that we all have lessons to learn, but they don't come through being aggressive and trying to force your version of the truth. If you look on Cancerrg's thread about what we like and dislike about ourselves, I acknowedge the way I can be tactless and too honest. I was being completely honest when I said those initial things about Aries. Aries wouldn't be great lawyers, and they do approach everything from a place that is very far from where a Capricorn would. You guys are go go go, and Caps are slow slow slow. It's only offensive, because you took offense to it. It's plain to everyone except yourself. It's also brutally honest, which is the lesson that you want me to learn.

You want me to reign in myself, and be more tactful. As Cappy and I both said, the reason Capricorns are quiet is because we don't want to hurt people's feelings. Perhaps that's why I'm drawn to water signs. Water is the least represented element in my chart.
