Can't really comment - was with a Cap for a very long time. He was always up for it, but not sure how that compares to other signs. I have Cap in Venus, but we were still not evenly matched - I am a less often, superior quality kind of girl I think.

Capricorn is horny no matter how anyone else generalizes that sign. Very Earthy.

George Clooney with Capricorn Moon is coming to mind right now.
Horny old goat.
If you have personal Capricorn, the horny goat is hiding somewhere inside, and wants it kinda raw, and wants it now.

also if you want to connect other zodiac signs with mythological creatures when it comes to sexuality

Centaurs were lusty creatures in Greek mythology, they were the descendants of Ixion's union with Nephele (the fake Hera) that Zeus created to test Ixion after Hera told Zeus about Ixion's sexual advances towards her.

Sagittarius is the zodiac sign associated with the centaur

so would that mean that Sagittarius is very sexual?

Interestingly, Ixion was discovered in Sagittarius. None of the other centaurs were discovered in Sagittarius.

I don't know... I just know I have an extremely strong sex drive... I rarely to never turned it down, and often initiated it, in a 20yr relationship with a Leo (Cancer cusp), we usually did it 3-4 times a week, oftentimes everyday or even a couple times a day, for maybe a few weeks stretch... I seriously blame the sex for keeping me in that toxic marriage for much, much longer than I should have stayed... not to mention getting me into that marriage to begin with... the only part of our relationship that worked was the sex, I'm not really even joking... we did create 4 beautiful, talented, brilliant, children as an extension of that which we did best as a couple - no regrets when I look in their eyes.

One thing I read about the Capricorn which maybe relevant to this discussion... we are easily able to compartmentalize our lives. How this manifested itself in my marriage was I viewed sex as separate from everything else that was going on (or wrong) in my marriage, unlike most women (from what I gather) I rarely to never held back because I was mad... unfortunately, I think he used this to "control" me... because honestly, how can you maintain hate for the person who just made you feel "like a natural woman" as Carole King would say?

Now that he and I are no more... it's very difficult transition for me to not have a regular partner. Enough said.

I have a friend who has been talking to me about open relationships and open marriages... he's an Aries.

In a strange way, I found the whole concept somewhat appealing, although risky in terms of health...

I don't know how many people actually practice open relationships and marriage, but as I was playing around with the concept I googled "open marriage astrology" and came up with this...

"Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces are probably best suited to the notion of open marriage -- for very different reasons. Capricorn likes to compartmentalize their lives with a marriage for public image and some indulgent fun somewhere else. "
http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/sex/open-marriage-your-astrological-response-1888234/

So that's where I got the idea Cappy's can compartmentalize, that and the fact it was oh so true for me... my sister, a Taurus, couldn't believe I was still having sex with him considering everything which had gone down in our marriage... but sex always felt good, real good (when not much else was working in my life) so I found it hard, to impossible, to put down...

My Aries friend told me the best way to get over someone is to get under someone new (that's a great pick up line for a guy, lol.)

I did that with a Virgo for a four-month relationship which I now refer to as my "rebound relationship"...

I guess I can't totally compartmentalize, because my Scorpio Moon (at least that's what I blame) went a little awry and rocked the boat on a perfectly good ongoing booty call relationship when my "Mr. Enigma" as I refer to him in my mind, refused to open up and share his life with me outside of our little trysts... I really was not ready for a full-fledged relationship, given that I'm not yet divorced... but nevermind that, a side of me couldn't stand not knowing everything little thing there was to know about this guy, and he wasn't opening up in the least to satisfy this burning desire I had to get to know him more... so I got a little emo and blew the arrangement we had going on (which was TOTALLY working between the sheets) to Smithereens.

So much for compartmentalizing!!!

I really don't regret that relationship either... from the minute I laid eyes on this dude it was that "OMG" feeling Usher/Wil.i.am sing about in the song by that name... and I felt that for him every time we saw one another for 4months, it never went away...

I have Venus in Pisces, his is in Virgo... opposites on the chart, magnetic... and he had Cancer Moon, to compliment my Cappy Sun and Scorpio Moon...

I don't know what he was, or is, thinking on his end... maybe he was only interested in me for sex (so be it, I say, the sex was good), but he indicated he felt more attraction for me than just that...

he wouldn't open up to me... he'd had his heart broken a few times and the fact I wasn't yet divorced was a BIG deal to him... he was guarding his heart. Or so he said... he kept himself so private I really started to wonder if I was simply his dessert on the side (and I wasn't mad at the thought - I just wanted to KNOW the truth, and what he was thinking - whatever it was.)

I kinda wish I'd simply just kept letting him have his dessert, if that's what it was... until I was in a better position to be in a relationship, because as it worked out I created so much drama he won't respond to my attempts to contact him... so that's that...

If we'd met in different timing perhaps he'd been my soul-mate connection...

As it was, the truth is, he was the PERFECT man for the role he played in my life... the intensity, sensuality and passion which played out btwn sheets, where he didn't f but rather - I will maintain to my grave - MADE LOVE... was such a different style from how my Leo-X had laid it down on me that the end result was this Virgo dude BROKE THE SPELL my Leo-X had had over me for 20years... And for that I'm eternally grateful!!!

So my heart did get a little broken, however the truth is my Virgo lover maintained such an enigma persona I can't say my heart is broken from losing him, but rather it's the loss of the fantasy which he represented... and I do miss how he laid it down on me... slow tease, sensual, with enough stamina to match my own... he made my juices flow, and flow, and flow, and flow.

***GREAT BIG SIGH***

and then there's...

I've been getting it on with my Aries friend since the Virgo dude thing ended... he's fun, he eff's me hard, no doubt about it, and I like it like that some of the time... he told me his style upfront before we did it... and he didn't lie... he has introduced me to positions I never imagined... ans as I said, he's fun.

I also have Libra Rising, and read somewhere that persons with Libra Rising always have an Aries in a significant role in their lives... interesting... and my Aries friend has Capricorn Moon to go along with my Capricorn Sun... all this and I held him off for quite awhile because his Aries Sun and my Capricorn Sun are not suppose to be compatible... you gotta look deeper than sun signs... that OMG feeling I had with my Virgo guy is TOTALLY missing with this Aries friend... which is why I call him my friend and not my guy... feels totally like a friends-with-benefits situation, which it is.

Well, he is hoping to find someone to do an open marriage with and have a couple children, I'm done with the birthing babies bit... so doing happily ever after together was never a consideration. Our purpose in being together is to have fun while playing it safe.

So I thought about open relationships and marriage for a minute, concluded I could never do an open marriage... but I'm doing a couple open relationships right now. (shh! oh ya, it's open, no need to sh!!!)

So there you have just about my entire sex life history for the past 20+ years. WOW.

PS Would you put up your chart, Ada. If you don't put your chart up, could you give information on your Mercury--sign/aspects?

posted August 05, 2010 06:34 PM            

Your wish is my command, except when I tried to cut and paste the gif of my daughter's chart for the saggitatrius x7 thread I started, couldn't seem to get it right...

Anyhoo, here is the vitals from the CD program which came with the book "The only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need"

Please tell me how Mercury's influence is felt, or what it impacts...

And thank you for the compliment on story telling, I enjoy writing and sharing...

+++++
EDIT: I started a new thread with my chart info, so please check that... thank you.

I felt like it was the Scorpio in me (both Moon & Mars) which wanted to know everything about my Virgo Rebound Relationship guy...

If my Capricorn Sun had been allowed to compartmentalize w/o interference, that relationship could have maybe carried on a bit longer w/o upsetting the status quo.

But NOOOOOOOOO my intensely passionate Scorpio influences just has to consume and own a person.

Or at least that's how I "compartmentalize" my astro influences.

+++++

Amowls:

Now my Venus Pisces is a CRAY-ZAH love influence, that, methinks, allowed me to build the fantasy in my head about my Mr. Enigma Man which gave the fuel to my intense Scorpion passions. That is a way I compartmentalize, I tend to believe my own fantasies - have a hard time separating reality from fiction.

This is an excellent influence in a healthy marital relationship, we all need 'rose-colored glasses' at times to successfully ride out the roller-coaster realities of marital life... but early on in a relationship it's not good, because you don't see the person's true character.

====

Note to Self: Once I get my sh*t pulled together and decide I'm ready for a long-term relationship, I am NOT going to get involved sexually with someone until I have fully assessed their character... because when I do pull that trigger of allowing myself to think "happily ever after" with a guy - damn! All bets are off and I fall head of heels FAST and it's all good... he pretty much has me whipped. I cannot afford to AGAIN fall like that to the wrong man. My soon-to-be-ex-husband had me under his spell for two l-o-o-o-o-ng decades, and I'm not doing that again.

Mr. Rebound Relationship guy actually probably wouldn't have been good for me long term, I looked up his criminal record AFTER we got involved, we got involved the same night we met... In other words, after I was hooked, and he had pled guilt to a couple domestic charges back in 2005 with his ex-wife... now, the way he told the story, and actually he told me before I looked up his record (to his credit) she framed him and from my experience of living in a battered women's shelter back in 2001 for 2 months, I can tell you plenty of women do that... but STILL. The thing is, the way he held back on me, with the enigma persona he maintained, I really was not ever able to assess whether or not he has a violent temper (I don't know his time of birth to look really get a good chart on him, just the date and city.) I wanted to believe it was just the situation in that marriage, and that he was telling the truth when he said she also had domestic charges on her, not only from that marriage but from her relationships before and after him... but I don't know, I really don't know.

BOTH guys I'm involved with now, both "open relationships" have what I call "deal breakers", I wouldn't ever consider doing "happily ever after" with either of them. If someone has a deal breaker, then I'm fine with, at this point in my life, doing a friends-with-benefits open relationship, provided the primal attraction is there on both sides.

It's when I lock it down into an exclusive relationship with the intent of exploring the possibilities of doing "happily ever after" that I get CRAY-ZAH.
