| Is it like your starsign?!?! Cause then I'm capricorn....
I found this about capricorns...
Capricorns are practical, reliable, hardworking, and far-sighted. Their powerful ambition and excellent work ethic usually ensure that they are successful in their chosen fields and that they achieve a position of status and respect. Despite the fact that they are cautious and prudent, they also have an excellent sense of humor, which tends to be a little wry and dark. When Capricorns feel hurt, they can become very sarcastic and vicious, but they are nice and diplomatic most of the time, as most of them would rather avoid conflict.
Capricorns don’t let their emotions show easily. They are cautious in most things and they hate the idea of showing weakness or embarrassing themselves in public. Most of them have a deep fear of public humiliation and a strong streak of self-consciousness. Capricorns often experience anxiety and low self-esteem, as they set incredibly high standards for themselves and are often very hard on themselves. They need to learn to give themselves a little leeway and not expect perfection all the time.
From the time of early childhood, Capricorns are often impressive to older people and those in authority because they are so self-disciplined, patient, determined, and mature.
Capricorns are very logical and intellectual, which can make them seem detached or even cold, because they don’t show their emotions easily and fear being vulnerable. They are actually quite sensitive and usually very nice people with friends and relatives, though they can be ruthless in business and when going after what they want. Their perfectionistic natures can lead to obsessive-compulsive behaviors if they’re not careful. These tendencies, combined with the Capricorn work ethic, makes them excellent business partners and providers.
Capricorns usually stay in good shape because they have too much willpower to overindulge continuously or go without exercise. Many run or play sports, often tennis, soccer, or hockey. Regular exercise helps stave off the anxiety, pessimism, depression, and feelings of low self-esteem that tend to afflict this sign. Most Capricorns have some sort of a fitness routine, or else they watch their diets. They tend to be on the slim side to begin with, and usually have good bone structure.
Capricorn is one of the better-looking signs of the zodiac. Capricorns often have large eyes and small, neat facial features. A few have a hawklike or bony face, but most are more attractive than average. Also, Capricorns have a tendency to age in reverse, looking young for their years as they grow older and acting more youthful and laid back in the second half of their life. Capricorns usually have it harder than most and have to overcome more than their fair share of obstacles in the first half of life, but tend to do very well in the second half.
Capricorns have good memories and they are well-organized and stable. Even when they are feeling anxious or low, others rarely know it Capricorns don’t usually bring their problems to others, but instead suffer in silence. They find it hard to open up to others and so have difficulty establishing deep relationships, though when they do they are very loyal, reliable, and trustworthy friends. In their careers, they often rise to positions of power They earn the respect of others, rather than simply asking for it.

Health
Capricorns are prone to problems caused by low self-esteem and being too hard on themselves. These problems include obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, and exhaustion brought about by overwork (Many Capricorns are workaholics). Under stress, Capricorns can experience skin complaints or breakouts. Most Capricorns take excellent care of their teeth, which tend to be either very good or very problematic. Arthritis, bone problems, and injuries or general problems with the knees are other Capricorn ailments. Capricorns are real survivors and known for their endurance and fortitude. They may leave injuries untreated, instead choosing to “tough it out”, which can lead to problems. The best thing that Capricorns can do to improve their health is to be kinder to themselves, not take themselves so seriously, and take time out to relax and do the things they enjoy.
Children
Capricorn children can seem more like little adults than children. They are serious and usually do well in school, achieving high grades. They are obedient and usually do what they’re told. Even at this young age, they are likely to be too hard on themselves and set impossibly high standards, so it is important that parents boost the self-esteem of Capricorn children and encourage lightheartedness and fun.
Capricorn children are usually intelligent and quick to learn. They may go through developmental stages early and will probably be more comfortable with companions older than themselves. They don’t see eye to eye with kids their own age, and some of them get bullied at school for being different. They tend to be introverted and good at amusing themselves. They can be so well-behaved that people forget they’re around. They may be hard to read, as they keep their emotions in check and are not very emotionally expressive. Parents should hug Capricorn children frequently in order to inspire the free expression of affection, for unless Capricorns get a lot of physical affection in childhood they may have serious troubles showing it in adulthood.
Compatibility With Other Signs
Aries: This is not the best match. In a romantic relationship, there is likely to be passion, but also many arguments. The Aries will be bothered by the Capricorn caution and difficulty in showing spontaneous emotion, while the Capricorn will be bothered by the Aries impracticality, tactlessness, and occasionally domineering nature. Of course these problems can be diminished if the rest of the planets in the two charts are in more compatible signs.
Taurus: This is a spectacular match. These two signs are highly compatible and they offer one another security. Here there is trust, reliability, common goals, and mutual understanding. Unless the rest of the planets in the two charts are in highly incompatible signs, this is an excellent combination. This match is good for love, friendship, and business partnerships.
Gemini: This is a bad combination. The Capricorn will probably find the Gemini flighty, irresponsible, and frivolous, while the Gemini will probably find the Capricorn dull, predictable, and not playful or sociable enough. These two signs are likely to irritate each other continuously.
Cancer: This is a good match These two signs share common goals and lifestyles. This is a very loving, compassionate, stable, secure, and deep interaction.
Leo: These two signs aren’t very compatible. The Capricorn will be annoyed by the Leo’s constant need to be the center of attention, and the Leo will not like the fact that the Capricorn doesn’t often spontaneously display affection. The modest Capricorn might find the Leo too egotistical, unless the rest of the planets in the charts are in far more compatible signs.
Virgo: These two people are really in tune with one another. This match is both intellectually stimulating and usually quite secure. Both people understand the value of hard work and both keep their promises and fulfill their obligations, so they can count on one another. Both signs are slow to trust and have difficulty talking about feelings, which can make the relationship slow-starting, but once it does get going, it runs very deep.
Libra: This is a problematic combination. The Capricorn will probably find the Libra frivolous, indecisive, and lazy, while the Libra won’t like the Capricorn introversion and bouts of gloominess.
Scorpio: This is an excellent match. This can be a deep and powerful connection with a lot of staying power. Both signs are intense, sensitive, ambitious, powerful, and enduring. Both are security-conscious and very careful not to show their weaknesses to the world. They have similar goals and outlooks on life and can usually count on one another to keep promises. In a romantic relationship, the Scorpio can unlock the Capricorn’s well-hidden passionate nature.
Sagittarius: This is not a good combination. Unless the rest of the planets in the two charts are very compatible, this is likely to bring irritation, because these two signs have vastly different outlooks on life, goals, needs, and lifestyles. The Capricorn might find the Sagittarius unreliable and irresponsible, while the Sagittarius could find the Capricorn dull and overly security-conscious.
Capricorn: This is a good match. These two people are in harmony with one another. They want the same things out of life and they understand one another. It may be hard to get things going, as both Capricorns will be cautious and slow to trust, but once the connection is made, this is likely to be a secure, reliable, and long-lasting relationship.
Aquarius: This is a mixed match. On one hand, it is intellectually stimulating, interesting, and fun. On the other hand, the Aquarian unpredictability could irritate the Capricorn and the Capricorn conventionality and caution will clash with the Aquarian radicalism and experimental nature. Also, the two might have trouble establishing a deeper connection as both have a tendency to be intellectually detached.
Pisces: This is a very deep and powerful connection, which is most often beautiful, though occasionally ugly. The Capricorn might not like the escapist and day-dreamy tendencies of the Pisces and the Pisces could find the Capricorn too exacting, but overall they are quite suited, for the Pisces creates an atmosphere of love and compassion in which the Capricorn can express him(her)self while the Capricorn provides the stability and security the Piscean so desperately needs. They are a good compliment to one another and if they can get past the surface differences, this can be a good match.
That's just a bit of it, it pretty much fit everything... I'm very much like that! |
