Awesome article about Cappys. Any thoughts? http://mysticmedusa.com/2010/05/20/calling-all-caps-your-thoughts/ Capricorn as Sea-Goat and not mere Goat is such an ancient idea. I went bats over this several years ago and kept reading up on why…it’s totally esoteric. To do with Capricorn also been ruled by maybe Neptune…as its “esoteric ruler” and Capricorn as representing the symbolic gateway to otherworlds. So Capricorn is actually an insanely dual sign – way more so than our Sagg even: Capricorn is half lewd Pan/Dionysus figure all nympho and with devilish cloven hooves, half earthly-desired imbued goat striving to the top of any mountain and half magical Sea-Monster. Okay, more than dual. I stopped Maths at long division. Some say the Sea Goat symbology has to with Mesopotamian Creator Gods – you can see why peeps go crazy researching this. I ended up concluding that Capricorns have powerful magic – a bit of Pisces/Neptune in there to modify their rulership by stern Saturn, oft difficult childhood and all those long hours they put in mastering themselves/their trade or whatever. I think magic comes out with Caps at Uranus Opposition…in the early 40s. Caps? Cap lovers? Thoughts? ~ Mystic Medusa ------------------ We justify ourselves each time we take a breath...

yes!! this is why i have always loved cappies, despite their rep for being "TOO" grounded, they are above all mystics - but they are too wise to show off about it in most cases...which makes them even dearer IP: Logged |

That's one of the best things about being a Cappy in my opinion, is the aging backwards. I still get carded, and am turning towards the 40... IP: Logged |

I just had this conversation with my s.o. the other night who is also a cappy- that we age in reverse. We get such a bad rap sometimes but I think we're the most sexiest intelligent people anyone can ever know (just to name a few attributes)....of course I'm being biased. LolIP: Logged |
