Besides that, he treats the people he lives with like family (Cancer on the 4H cusp). They know he's always there for them when they need him. He's a hard worker and very trustworthy.

Because of our synastry, I see him as rather cynical in some ways, but he has a Saturn-Neptune conjunction also. He sees me as "naive."

He had virtually no mothering, nurturing, or encouragement from his parents. They were both alcoholics. He's extremely self-sufficient and doesn't want to be emotionally dependent on anyone.

He has a hard time articulating or expressing his needs.

Also, they are not so thankful if you do everything to make them happy. It's like they are some kind of black hole, never really satisfied... they only get really happy if you give them your money lol.

Cons
-when younger or if not evolved, so fearful of anything new that they wont try anything.
-because they are ambitious, if they do not reach their goal, they become depressed even when the goals are arbitrarily hard. They might not do anything that does not contribute to their career at all. Hence they are really ...
-boring, overly sensitive to criticism, condescending to people who are not as success-oriented
-younger caps can run over people
-woe-is-me attitude due to frustration with not reaching their goals
-gloomy, refusing to share emotions, forever wallowing over a tiny failure
-basing their self-worth on worldly success
-stingy, self critical hence critical of others

Just as an aqua sees everything he/she does is to distinguish the self, or a scorpio to explore the depth of things, a cap attributes all events in life as mountains to climb. The mountains might not be real, though!

-The second decan (Taurus/Venus) tends to write a lot of poetry, music, philosophy. We are the lazy ones. Everyone who says, "I know a lazy Capricorn" is talking about us. If we are interested in something we are like that stubborn bull who will not budge for an eternity. They call it lazy but to us, we are *specializing* in something. We are sucking the marrow out of life and will capitalize on it later....we think....

Taurus stubborness can also work in our favor and help us to attain goals, by never quitting. We get obsessed productively sometimes.

-The third decan (Virgo/Mercury) is the most self-assured and unbending. Usually the wisest of the three Caps, they rest on unshakable beliefs or principles that no one can tear down. Even if the reason is, "Because I said so. And I'm in the position of power here," it's still something that cannot be refuted.

Third decan is hard but brittle. If they make any mistake, they despise themselves for it. So they DON'T make mistakes. They are usually right.

I have a third decan Cap friend and she is like the guardian of my sanity. She won't let me believe anything that's not true, checked, and double checked.

- All Caps are funny, if only to ourselves.

While typically success oriented they can also be very generous to those they care for (perhaps money and security is how they understand love so that's how they show it, but can be sentimental like the one Cappie who gave about a thousand bucks to the college fund of a baby who had survived the death of the woman that the Cappie had loved though the Cappie knew he wouldn't ever be part of that child's life, and that was in addition to his contribution to funeral expenses).

Humor tends to be slapstick.

-Most caps I know are highly sexual. Like scorpio sexual. I would rate Caps as the 2nd most sexual sign and I don't think a lot of people realize just how much so they are.

-Caps are cold only on the outside! On the inside they're lovable little bears.

-They give the best advice hands down. If you ever want to talk about serious issues, talk to a cap. They have literally experienced all lessons the hard way, so when you talk to them, they know exactly what you're going through. I'm a pisces and this is the only sign I really want to talk to when I'm going through some difficult periods in my life. I can truly feel that they understand.

-They are the ultimate father figure. Even female caps handle their business like bosses. They work hard to provide! And they truly do this out of love.

-They are very methodical. In a way, I'm envious of this. When my cap friend was cheated on by her partner, she stayed with him, but then planned out her revenge. She cheated on him for several months and then went on to plan out her breakup, doing this all without attachment. If you ever watched Vampire Diaries, you'll understand how they are. They have the ability to "switch off" their emotions so they can execute their plans with a clear head (sidetone: I think a cap sun/ aquarius moon would make the best serial killer.)

-The one major negative I take issue to with caps is that they are major snobs! If they feel you are beneath them, they won't give you the time of day. As a pisces, I can't help but befriend all walks of life. I've had a cap friend tell me not to hang out with someone because according to them, my friend wasn't on our "level" smh. They are also brandwhores. They're the ones with designer clothes, the latest gadgets, etc.

-I never give up once I have a goal or something to do. I'll take the road from Point A through Z and back to B if needed.

-I will never let anyone in until they have proven themselves "worthy" of my trust.

-I am highly sexual, in an earthy way. I want to blend souls together.

-I die if I don't get to work hard.

-I can solve anyone's problems and gladly, and unconditionally, do so.

-I can make someone feel like the best person in the world only to later make them feel like the worst. This I am NOT proud of!

-I can wait for years to plot a revenge if someone has been bad towards me and it will be executed to perfection. Not proud of this either.

-I will protect my family to death if needed. This might be heightened by my Cancer Sun though.

-I went through hell in my younger years. Happens to many Caps, yes?

-I don't understand emotions very well but can logically and systematically explain why certain things are the way they are. I'll be detached and not very personal.

-I am extremely resilient, mentally and physically, where many others would succumb to pressure.

-I like to provide for my family and don't really like it the other way around.

I had progressed Sun in Cap at age 1 and although I am Sag Sun nataly,a lot of my "inner growth" leaned towards Cap.

There was a lot of concern or awareness towards reputation/good standing and keeping ones status elevated.

I though that I had Cap Asc/Moon in Cap-because I was such a serious Sagittarius person:Concerned with getting recognition and status for myself etc.

I wouldn't say that this position makes one materialistic minded per se.

But one does tend to appreciate that money makes life easier and thus may lean towards thinking along those lines.

But Caps are not the type to "indulge" in money as Taurus does. Rather they look at what money can provide them relative to life conditions, inner circles and the legacy of their name.

What Cap is really after is STATUS.They want to be known as the BEST and their name to conjure up feelings of pride in others.

When we speak of reputation and the "good name" of the family; traditional values and moral uprightness. We speak of Caprciron.

Money just helps to elevate their status even more. Gives them a kind of "don't touch but you can look" appeal -which they just love.

Caps are mounted in the "here and now" and that tends to make them depressed; especially when the here and now is not desirable.

The "iciness" that people speak of,comes from being socially awkward and feeling serious in otherwise frivolous situations: Thus emphasizing to the Cap that they don't fit in etc.

They have an above all need to organize and "better" their surroundings.An acute awareness of quality(which they share with Virgo/Taurus) and a tendency to listen too much to what people think/ "authority" figures and set social norms.

My Sun has progressed to Aqua and I have felt the ease-as the energy lifts off a little bit.

Not all Caps are the same. There are those snobby, cold hearted, user, social climber types. Just about everybody knows someone, or knows someone who knows someone, like this. Every sign has it’s A-holes.

Then there are those loyal, dedicated, friend-till-the-end, type Caps who are determined and motivated to do good in their lives. These ones are adorable. I admire other Caps with this kind of integrity.

Capricorn mooners are comedians/bosses/models/humanitarians all at once, if they wanna be. Ask Lucille Ball. Other great examples of Capricorns (suns) are Martin Luther King Jr., Paramahansa Yogananda, Edgar Allan Poe, Eartha Kitt, David Bowie, Betty White, Michelle Obama, Johnny Depp (he has a Cap moon).

Major depression. The depression can be so major with Cap Moons because they can be their biggest adversaries. It's like the Good Angel - Bad Angel on the shoulder thing runs true with Cap mooners, but I'm not sure if it's because their judgment is so spot on, or because they see things for what they truly are. Same difference? The truth ain't always pretty, perfect, or antique and classy, and that's what Cap mooners like.

Lot of the Cap mooners I know were either born into poverty and came up on their own or from the help of elders. Some Cap moons will be raised by grandparents, or rarely spend quality time with their biological parents because the career keeps their parents going. Capricorn moons are good at getting attention, but it isn't always positive. It's like some people sit there and wait for Cappy to mess up, because not all novices appreciate a sign that incarnated to 'master' whatever of their choosing. Capricorn Moon sort of reminds me of these lyrics from "Cocoa '88" - Sample time: "When I look in the sky, I see a hex like someone held a Baphomet high -And I ask myself, "who is that guy?" Or is it just I? Drawing with my eyes, There's been times I'm surprised I survived -And I wonder if it's an angel that blessed this - Or what devil distresses with a messes mixed message in my head......make the light go away, so no contrast for shadows to play."

Capricorns are dark, morbid, critical, amazing leaders, matter of fact, great builders, good with numbers, good with structure, they often have nice bone structure as well, and most Caps don't know that they have an audience of people looking up to them...until they fall a few times, but they always get back up stronger than ever. Think of the song "Uphill" by Can.
