Well, I happen to be one of the ppl that loathe their sun sign, because Cap IS the worst sign of the zodiac, undeniably.

What I hate most is all that stuff they say about having to work to earn things in life, to only be successful in the 2nd half of life [really, why? it's not fair]. Basically seeking advice re minimization of its influence. Absolutely anything will do.

INB4 convincing me it's a good sign. it isn't

Not true. I'm a Capricorn Sun and I love it. I take pride in who I am... Caps have a natural sense of wisdom about what’s reasonable and what isn't, and we have great BS detectors. I’ll admit that there are some unevolved Caps out there, who really are cold hearted snobs, and just plain mean in some cases. But the more conscious, evolved ones are awesome. Levelheaded, no-nonsense, trustworthy, together, loyal and kind… Not to mention that a lot of Caps do have quite a wicked wit on them.

A lot of Caps do struggle with insecurity and shyness when young. But, hey so do Cancers and Virgos and a few of the other signs. Shyness and insecurity are not exclusively Cap traits. And usually we improve more and more with each passing year.

It’s not true that Caps ALWAYS have to wait until later life for success (But if you have a lot of Capricorn or Saturn influencing your chart this could be true). You’d need to take a detailed look at your chart to determine something like this. The Sun being in Cap is just one factor in your chart.

I think it’s a shame not to like your own sign. People fall in love with us Caps all the time.

i am not by any means denying anyone the pleasure of enjoying whatever sign they were born under. but name me one sign that is worse? yes correct, there isn't a single one.

shyness and insecurity are deadly sins. worse than murder. seriously. surely no credit can be claimed for something like THAT?

i am my Gem ASC more than anything. There's a lot of Jupiter and Sag in my chart.

There is no such thing as one sign being any better then another one. Each sign has a set of positives and negatives. They are all equal in goodness and badness. Personally, I think your approach to your own Sun sign is very skewed and biased. It’s your perspective that’s the issue. The sign Capricorn itself is fine.

Besides as I mentioned in my post, Virgo and Cancer can have many of the same issues as Capricorn when it comes to shyness and insecurity, and it’s not like every Cap has a chronic case of this either. It varies from person to person.

Your said… “shyness and insecurity are deadly sins. worse than murder. seriously. surely no credit can be claimed for something like THAT?”

ARE YOUR SERIOUS!!!? Honestly this statement is literally insane. Literally insane. Astrology aside, I hope you are joking because if you are not I’m sorry for you. You obviously have serious anger issues to do with people being shy or insecure. Not everyone feels the same way.

Yeah, I’ve got a lot of Sag it my chart too, and it’s my Asc as well. I feel BOTH my Sun and my fire planets, and I like it that way.

no dire need to be rude and call me insane, i hope?

have you heard of such a thing as a hyperbole? it's googl-able. but, if one is serious, shy people are extremely dangerous. they blame others for ignoring them a lot of the time. they pose problems to anyone trying to communicate with them. society doesn't need this.

well, you know they say we hate about others what we can't forgive ourselves for. i squeezed that sh*t out of me. and like hell anyone is ever telling me i am like that antisocial cohort with hungry pleading eyes hoping to find friends and desirable lovers as opposed to their likes. none of that thanks. they should sit cloistered at home and not depress others.

if timidity is so damn good, why does everyone want to be around lovely charming approachable people who have an air of lightness about them? including all the shy insecure individuals who envy them?

incidentally, you just said Cap=wisdom, which is bollocks. wisdom has NOTHING to do with the Sun sign.

Okay, so you have some type of rage against shy timid people. So they’re dangerous ha? Don’t project your nonsense onto them just cause you have issues.

Ya know, not all Caps are the desperate losers you seem to think they are. I’m a Cap and I like myself just fine, and rarely envy anybody. I’ve had plenty of guys go after me, even when was in my shy phase, and I’ve felt wanted and desired and appreciated. Yes, even as a shy sixteen year old. I actually had friends too. And yes Caps ARE wise about making smart choices, and keeping there act together in life.

Back to the shy timid people, most eventually grow out of it… And if they don’t. Ever heard of compassion?

I’m serious when I say that your attitude is not healthy.

compassion excludes the possibility of being friends or lovers, LOL

I don't think Caps are losers. A typical Cap for me is someone sitting on his/her own, contending against life, competing, getting rewarded and still being aloof and lonely. And looked down upon by truly charismatic, successful and popular people who land things without lifting a finger. Because they have enough contacts and confidence. This is what life taught me, miss. Contacts and confidence outdo aeons of hard labour. And this comes from Mercury, Mars and Jupiter. Which is how I want to be.

When I think I'd rather stay at home and work as opposed to seeing friends, I make myself throw up. You could have a coffee with a person and discover more opportunities than through YEARS of research.

I have to agree with other people here, your attitude isn't healthy. Both about shyness and Cap sun.

There is no way to minimise your Sun sign - since it's the central point of your chart. All you can do is get over the idea capricorn is such a terrible Sun Sign. It's a -hard- sun sign, but in no way it is bad.

i don't like things to be hard. i have the right i hope?

what is good about being wise, serious and lonely? and having to work 10 times as much as everyone else? of course it's bad! it's normal to wish to get the better of the stars if they compel, you know.

i haven't asked anything illegal.

No, you had not asked anything illegal, but you kind offended all Capricornians stating that it's the worst sun sign. And you defnitelly offended all the shy people saying they are dangerous.

Of course you don't like things to be hard. That's not the point. The point is that when your life is hard you get stronger than other people. Of corse, you can wish everything is easier so you don't need to be stronger. But it's -your- choice, not everybody else.

Also, scorpio sun sign is painfull, virgo sun sign is paranoic and pisces is too sensible to deal with everyday life. So carefull before saying one sign is the worst.

Wow...what a doomsayer. Sounds like strong insecurities are being projected here since you're ending your statements with questions.

Strong in Capricorn myself, yeah life is hard but I wouldn't have it any other way. It makes me appreciate it that much more. I work hard for everything I have & it gives me my strong sense of pride.

I used to be extremely shy & timid when I was young but I never had those feelings that you spoke of. I still had plenty of friends & an active social life.

Instead of harboring such negative feelings about being a capricorn, maybe you should also embrace the more positive sides as others have mentioned. There's a lot more to being a Capricorn than some overworked slave tyrant...

All of the Caps I know work hard, yes, but they're also all rich by the age of 30, so I dunno wtf you're talking about. I'm extremely jealous of Capricorns. And I don't think it's true that they're shy and timid, I'd give that to their opposite sign. The Caps I know are always laughing and have a wonderful, dry, sarcastic, witty sense of humour. I'm extremely jealous of this sign. I would be a Capricorn a million years before I'd be a Pisces. It's like they're just made of money.
Sure, Sagittarians are a lot of fun and good-looking, but the sign is indisputably broke-a**. Jupiter lets them keep smiling anyway.

I have Sun conj Jupiter
Taurus moon
The toughest aspect is a really loose t square between Venus, moon and Saturn, which is mitigated by trines and sextiles with Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto all over the place.

So I don't really have any tough aspects. Seriously.

And also I have mercury, Neptune and Uranus in the 7th

Venus conj mars in the 9th

Basically, I have a dream chart that's got nothing to do with Saturn or Cap. Still I want to be better at stifling them even further.

Sag and Jupiter is the best stuff in the zodiac. Followed by Mercury

Thanks for sharing that AS sounds like you are satisfied with your chart which is nice. Hopefully you will see some good things about your Cap sun as time goes on. It would be hard emotionally to go through life having such painful feelings about it. Regardless of what anyone says the end results are controlled by you & here's rooting for you to finding something that will at least make you proud of your sun sign

I completely understand what andstuff is saying. She/He is not wrong at all, in MANY aspects. There is alot of truth in those words. I learned to figure out the best qualities about myself without the sign and then I put them together, it just boosted my Cappy feel up. Growing up I thought Caps were the most boring sign ever and thought, work-money, how boring. I hate work and I don't care about money. lol Oh yeaaaah. If you wanna chat more about this problem andstuff, I hear ya.

I have Sun Square Jupiter myself: the harsh aspect. I have a lot of harsh natal aspects.

A whole life of success, so at least the second half success isn't true on my part. I didn't get along with my parents, but I wiped out the school grades and career. I was independently a millionaire (net worth, not assets) by 27 through my own work and investing efforts (and luck). My marriage has also been a success and it's been good for 19 years. She's a flamboyant Leo and yet she's never found me boring. I just got back from a kick ass vacation, and so there goes the garbage about "all work and no play." My children themselves are successes. So hold up your head. As a man, I thank God that my genitalia still works very well, even though I'm advancing in age. As for insecurity, the critical others can bite me. I wouldn't want to be any other sign besides Capricorn, and like Aquacheeka said, the rest doesn't quite matter.

Capricorn Sun in 10th, Capricorn Mars and Mercury in 11th. Aries Jupiter in 2nd. Gemini Moon in 3rd. Saturn and Venus in Aquarius in 12th.
