me neither, sister. Even my carved out of cold marble lil' brother~ he's as cap as can be.... you do this or that --- it might not show - he might not show you then or ever --- he might show you years down the road --- but there's some very potent, explosive energy, emotional energy --- very closely guarded by the Cappy people I've ever known. I can't say either way on whether we're like scorps any more so than any other sign could.... Scorpio is one of my more dominant signs... so technically I'm Scorp > Cap.... But, I really did like that quote somewhere on the boards, "Capricorn is just Scorpio in a business suit" ~oh but don't both signs look great in business attire? Oo; there's a question for ya'! ^^;

Both seemed to be more emotionally cautious and more reserved when it comes to showing exuberant feelings, 2 Cap + Scorp relatives are like this. I have 4 Scorpio planets and Saturn squaring my Ascendant and I am like this too. IP: Logged |

Let's take my mom and I.Scorp Sun (moon decan)/Scorp Moon (neptune decan) vs. Cancer Sun (Pluto decan)/Cappy Moon (venus decan/Hades). Pretty similar outlay, yes? Mom: instigates, creates drama, complains, cries, pulls below the belt-sh!t to get her way, super blue and intense eyes. Me: sits quiet, observes, takes it all in, ponders, stands up, looks mom straight in eyes tells her to be silent or I will ruin her life as she knows it. Super blue and intense eyes. IP: Logged |

It depends on the arena of intensity. When it comes to getting to an objective, you can rely on Capricorn to deliver. I rarely see people as intense as we are at work. Like the Energizer bunny. Not meant as disrespect, but Scorpios have that stare. Really? Stare? Gimme a break. IP: Logged |

Cappy's are past masters at not seeing the forest for the trees. Thing with Scorpios, that makes them a bit different from Cappy's is it takes time for them to discover what they want to do, once they do though they tend to become really successful at doing so. Out of curiousity, wonder which placements lead to the most inventions?

^^^ In that case, I'm not a typical Capricorn. I will go for the jugular and I won't back down until the opposition has its last breathe. I'm not going to sit back and plot and "contain" whatever damage there is. I'm not about containment. I'm about eliminating my opposition in the most convincing manner. Anybody who knows me in real life knows I'm not someone to be messed around with. My temper is immediate and furious, and I do not back down till one side is dead, everything else be damned. The only reason why I am where I am in the professional world is that I take knives out of my back every night and plunge them back deep into my foes. It's a dog eat dog world, and the top dog wins. The pit bull doesn't lie back and plot. The pit bull attacks ferociously. How do you think I deal with my Leo wife? The main reason why she likes me is my don't-mess-with-me confidence and my quick action. I walk and talk like a cowboy on the western front. "I don't wanna have to kick your @$$" is the mentality. She is like me, only more so. When I don't like something, you will hear from me swiftly. Likewise, if I'm not intersted in carrying on a relationship, you will get it straight in your face each and every time. I tell it like it is without holding back anything. No, I don't stare. I snap like an angry dog, and sometimes I yell when I get mad. I had a Scorpio girlfriend once. You can tell that it never worked out. How do you think I got married so quickly? So, that "take time and evaluate thing" doesn't apply to me either. In fact, I can't remember the last time I took my time on anything or making any decision. Maybe an Aries Jupiter has something to do with that. Or Sun Square Jupiter. IP: Logged |

I agree...but it's hard to tell because I'm a Capricon Sun/Asc and Scorpio Moon/Venus/Pluto so I can't easily separate them.IP: Logged |

yes...and the combination of the two signs in a chart make for a very dark, intense, introspective person.i am a capricorn with scorpio ASC and Venus and Pluto , both conjunct the ASC. i get along with scorpios very well. i tend to really like people who share the same combo of cap/scorp. my little brother is a scorpio and we are very similar. he tends to brood longer and hold his emotions in while i explode and let it all out.

Wow. So tell me Cappy men...I am VERY attracted to this Cappy guy, I know it's mutual (the deep intense stares, the whole thing) Talk about poker face! BUT he acts like he's afraid of me! He will stare at me from afar, when we lock eyes it's intense, or sometimes if I catch him he turns away real quick) but if I try & approach him, he shakes!! Then I get paranoid like "maybe he's not attracted" I'm a taurus gal with a Pisces moon, he can't fool me! I'm also a few years older than him. I just want to jump his bones already! LOL I can tell it would be HOT HOT HOT.I know that I'm attractive in an "Earthy" way, but I also know that every attraction is not mutual. I'm pretty positive this one is though.. IP: Logged |

You know, I kind of agree with this. I've thought about it and they DO seem to have similar temperaments, even if the underlying motivations are dissimilar.I think, though, that Cappies are a lot easier to please/more realistic about human nature than Scorps are. Maybe just more accepting. IP: Logged |

I was referring to the office environment, but since you brought up that kung fu nonsense, I'll respond. I couldn't care less about ethnicity and stereotypes, but yes I did grow up with martial arts. I don't care if a guy is a foot taller, I'll still take him out. About all the gibberish about belt colors and stupid stereotypical films, I have something different that I am proud of that backs my survival skills. It's called a ranger tab. IP: Logged |

I am a Scorpio and I do not see similarity but differences with Capricorn.I suppose I can see right through them. Capricorn are too practical to be able to understand intuitive side / idealistic side of Scorpio. Capricorn are insecure. Far more competitive than Scorpio would even bother to get into. Scorpio always knows what they wants and knows that they would get it. Scorpios come from sort of abundance and faith. Capricorn comes from limitations. Capricorn are too sure of themselves even though they do not know all whereas Scorpio would not try to impose their beliefs on someone and would back off in an argument and open to new beliefs.

Ugh...not true. Capricorns aren't really such stick in the muds people make them out to be. I am a Capricorn with a Scorpio Moon, and I am highly intuitive. A think a Capricorn sun is best accompanied with a water moon. It makes us more fluid. IP: Logged |

Was just being sarcastic about it ^^ - i tend to joke about stereotypes all the time (like that time with the traditional secret passed down from one generation to another :P ) and sometimes, i leave the smileys out intentionally... cause people tend to be so funny when they act so serious about it. ^^ btw - such a capricorn/scorpio like reaction. ^^ IP: Logged |

Pluto is the angry, emotional saturn ... Plutonian and Saturnian tend to get along I'd say capricorn are very cut-and-dry, realistic and much less caught up in the ego. The down side is insecurity but that applies for all cardinal signs. Scorpios are fixed. They tend to be very focused on one thing and not being able to see bigger picture because they're caught up in being "a force to reckon with." Upside is the passionate nature, the much less materialistic tendency hence ability to challenge status quo (uranus exalted here), and the confidence. Capricorn confidence is earned, not innate in a person.
Both can be socially awkward in younger years. IP: Logged |
