On the positive side most gem suns understand other gem suns jokes or how they test or try to play mind games on each other.

I like earthy people...most of my chart is water. I feel safe around them haha.
That's what I love about fellow Geminis, they follow my thinking at the same speed. There's just a shine in the eyes of a Gemini, and you can have great fun :-))

Two caps have the danger I think of getting really heavy, too serious (Saturn), kind of sticks in the mud. My SO has an infuriating fatalistic streak sometimes. His chart is Earth, Earth, Earth, Water, Water, Earth, and I think ONE fire placement (in an outer planet). My chart is One Earth and then tons of water and Air. He has Saturn squares galore, I have mostly trines and sextiles. And together, he brings the serious (which I need, to be honest. I can get carried away with my optimism and he can be the realist, and I think that balance works), but he's still hysterical. I bring the optimism when he's feeling down and angry about life (often). And, I've posted in other threads, we have literally never in 2 years been able to get angry with one another in person. On more than one occasion, I would be upset about something that occurred prior to meeting up with him, rev myself all up to 'confront him', then see him and have no idea why I was upset to begin with. Definitely the first relationship I've had where I've just always felt like we love each other fully.

My CAp ex had a scorpio moon, which I think created his volatility. He once threw a book I gave him so hard at my feet (aiming I think for me) that it split the binding - at the time he was trying to get me to confess to cheating (I had not). He would call me horrible, degrading names in fights. I broke up with him a couple of times because he was so possessive - he would force me to give him every single detail of what would happen whenever I went out in 'mixed company' - literally "So, did you hug any guys hello or anything? Did anyone touch you? Did you flirt at all? Do you mostly hang with girls?" "Umm... we all just went bowling. It wasn't really a contact sport." That would happen every other night for about a year before I got fed up. It was just awful.

I feel like taking over the thread sharing stories back and forth about crazy goats but I'll try not to. Let me just say, I know what you mean about the heaviness, though I've had that with other earth signs more than Capricorn. And my Cap ex was possessive, too...after we had broken up *and he was dating someone else* he'd get irritated if he saw me with another guy. But I would give him one look and he'd back off, smile, pretend he was only joking.

Anger can be a serious problem for Cappies, I agree. I don't hold onto it that long (Gemini Mars) but it's intense. I have often quoted an astrology book I was flipping through at a bookstore (don't remember the title) that said, There is a lot of violence pent up in the sign of Capricorn. I believe there is. We're so calm most of the time, it's not obvious..

It takes a lot to get us there, and most people probably have no idea we're capable of getting that riled up.

Anyway, I'm so happy for you that you and your boyfriend never fight. Even if you do have to deal with all the heaviness...well it's always something. Which is why my Sag Venus is going into retirement if I'm ever not married. Maybe I'll get a guinea pig.

This Libra guy pursued me for almost a year. I was not in a 'dating' sorta place. In the end I agreed to go on one date, just the one. It was nice, but ... I didn't feel *it*.

The complete opposite with this other guy. He got closer to me in 2 weeks than my current guy did in 2 years. I even thought, *gasp*, this guy is marriage material. Which, if you know me - is something I haven't thought about anyone. Ever. The chemistry was through the roof. Never thought I'd find crazy passion and marriage-material-vibe in one guy. *sigh* Sucks that I know I can never be with him. We remember each other fondly though. Maybe in another lifetime.

And yeah, it does tie to the OP!! You raise an interesting point. The house gives the operating-base dimension to the planet. In your case, I see the ramifications. Come to think of it, me too perhaps. I'm an 8th house sun, and all the people I've been involved with have one or more Scorp placements - engenders the feeling of 'you get me'.

I think Caps can generally be pretty even-keeled, but since we DO have that serious, potentially negative side, if we have too many squares in our chart, I've seen tempers be AWFUL. (Like in his case). Capricorn is a stubbbornnnn sign and once we're stuck in 'anger', we struggle to get out of it. When I'm angry with someone (REALLY angry, which takes a lot) it can sometimes take me months to cool down about them. And I don't even have the kinds of inner placements that would cause that....
Ok I am done babbling now!!

Is it okay to quote all of that? I love how you worded everything...and yes, it makes sense!

Strange...I'm an 8H moon and have never dated anyone with personal planets in Scorpio, not that I can think of.

No...I'm not in touch with anyone from my school years, except good friends from childhood, and a few from college. I'm not on Facebook or anything.

But I'm willing to bet, if I saw my ex again, we'd have a happy reunion. And if we were both single I think we'd be making out within a few minutes, which is sorta what happened the last time we ran into each other, after no contact for a few years. (I don't even know how that happened , it was like a magnetic force appeared out of nowhere and forced us to!!)

I should work on concealing my weirdness. Tomorrow, tomorrow...

Do you still have contact with the Libra you mentioned above, the one you loved?

posted January 23, 2016 03:50 PM            

Strange thing about your moon, though. I wonder why... Is it because of the conflicts (squares to moon in your chart)? Or maybe as you grew older, the expression of the moon was (sort of) subjugated to the expression of other planets because your moon was making you too sensitive?

As for your ex, boy you are one of those couples that never really breaks up, huh? All it needs is circumstance to bring you two together - and then *bam*, back to square one.

Aah - yes, I am. Not very often, but every couple of months or so, we talk. Just to clarify, we weren't in a relationship. I've only ever been in one relationship (*insert awkward chuckle*) - with that Scorp, mentioned on the other thread. It's so unlike me, seeing a future with someone (I loved my ex a LOT, still do - but I used to panic at the mention of our future together 'coz I couldn't *see* it, you know?). But that's mostly 'coz of my hang ups, intimacy issues.

This Libra guy - I knew him for all of two weeks (and now we're geographically very far away too). Bolt from the blue. Things like this make me believe that really, a connection is a connection. Time, place, any checklist be damned. Like they say in the bloody movies, when it's right, you simply know.

That actually sounds like Sag Venus. I would guess it was his Jupiter responding to you.

Gee, that sounds a lot like my Scorp ex. And my Scorp (sorta) current.

Glad you got out of it.

Not quoting everything, but I admire your restraint. Who says we need to date a million people before settling down anyway? That confuses the heart. And...I'm happy you still talk to him!

Right! I mean, you don't have an 8H sun for nothing. It's perplexing that this thing with the Libra seems both fast and slow, though. Maybe the timing is just not right. Space-time-intelligence has yet to construct its proper wave to push you two along...

---

Aww, thanks..! But it's more of a staying-in-touch kind of talking, nothing more. He's with someone else. *sigh* I didn't check the Uranus contacts - maybe I should! Either way, it's fine. He's better off as a distant dream. At least, now I know a little better what I want in a partner... (Plus, would we even work at close quarters? Who knows, I don't wanna find out).

As for me not dating - yeah, it just takes a real toll on me. So I try not to jump in. Also, it might be 'coz of my ex. No-one quite measures up. I know I shouldn't compare, but other people's crushes pale in comparison to what we had. Everyone else seems bland. Sure, I can have a relationship with them, probably even a drama-free one. But it wouldn't feel right.

[Edit: Another reason is - I can sense what they'll be like in complex situations, in tough times and the good. Whether they'll stand up for me, things like that. Dating to find all that out seems like a waste of time. When younger, I used to try to warn my friends about the people they were dating when I smelled a rat, but that just made me the bad guy. So now I zip it. Until they realize on their own. **sorry for going off topic**]

I relate to so much of what you wrote...well, your 12H moon to match my Pisces moon...there is a lot of seeing the end, right from the beginning. Also I have Venus-Neptune and preferred the dreaming to reality, many times.

Also, I can relate to wanting to warn people, but knowing they will take it badly, so, just waiting for the "other shoe to drop," so to speak.

Still figuring things out with this one, don't want a relationship - but how do you fight it?

---

Beats me, I got engaged after one date, which tells you how very impulsive I can be, under the right circumstances. No desire to fight what feels perfectly right. Of course, things have felt "right" with some other gents after I got married, and then, one must learn to fight it. Even if it means watching your soul shrivel up and die...

I knew you'd get it. Btw, this one was a Libra/Scorp cusp and very Plutonian, so now I'm not sure of the validity of my example. Anyhoo, bygones.

The Neptunian parts in us always give the benefit of doubt to the dream. By default, the dream and the fantasy seems better than anything we could have in our current life. By virtue of never having to come into contact with reality, they're in an impenetrable cocoon of ethereal perfection.

What..!! That's so romantic. You were swept off your feet. To override the cautious Cappy, mix in equal parts: the romanticism of a Pisces moon and the Impulsiveness of a Sag venus. Let simmer for one date; and - Voila! ^_^

Must have been one hell of a date though. What was it like? I'd like to picture it if you don't mind describing it.
