Personality
Mountain chamois
What is the Capricorn for a person and how to introduce this zodiac sign? The ideal form is probably a mountain chamois (the goat). The genuine Capricorn is able to climb the social ladder as skilfully as his four-legged relative in the mountains. He or she will be very careful where to step, because every wrong move could end up with a very painful fall.
If we are talking about an adult Capricorn, it will not be a frisky kid. Capricorns know that the ground for success is the self-discipline. He or she respects well known experts and honor the tradition. Only then they can survive in tough conditions and climb to the top.
The ability of self-control
Capricorn's element is the earth. Therefore people born under this sign are not looking dreamily into the sky, but rather in front of them (besides others to avoid stumble). These people can usually well distinguish what helps them in achieving goals. Jealousy, anger, revenge, eccentricity or pride are often just obstacles which is better to overcome, because they do not help Capricorn's intentions. Uncontrolled passions can arouse embarrassment in them.
Capricorns know that opportunity never knocks twice at a man's door. It may therefore look a bit calculating and self-seeking, but they consider such attitude as rational. If you can not follow proper examples and listen to good advice, they will not waste the precious time with you. Capricorns are independent and they can cope well in difficult conditions.
Capricorn Man
The Capricorn man is focused on performance. The motto “business before pleasure” seems to be designed probably just for this eager zodiac sign. The Capricorn man orients himself by the fixed, proven and predetermined structures. But sometimes is he depressed because of the sad love or bitter intimacy and is turning inwards, into solitude. A bit stubborn, self-sufficient, careful and thoughtful – such are main personality traits of the Capricorn man.
Personality Traits
A typical Capricorn man gives the impression of a judicious cowboy. It is a practical man with serious intentions, balanced behaviour and his life is surrounded by brave deeds. But is not possible to easily change his personality with any kind of magic. So, if you are looking forward to some reckless monkey, who will be running barefoot in the morning dew with you, you will be probably disappointed. Prepare rather for some ironic quips, which he will share with you already at the first date.
Capricorn men do not express their needs too explicitly, and that is why they sometimes miss the target of the expectation. It is hard to imagine that a Capricorn man would ask for praise, caress or a sympathetic word. But that does not mean it is not the secret desire of such a man.
His dreams are realistic. If he will by close to you, certainly you will not get lost in the dark of the forest or in the rush of the city. The Capricorn man will thoroughly look around before he embarks on a journey. He will be careful and to avoid the unnecessary harm. Rationality and planning ability are important personality traits of this very focused zodiac sign.
If you want to attract that man, convince him that you are practical and reliable. You can dazzle the Capricorn man with your royal ancestry (there is a very high chance from the probability point of view that Edward III or any other well known king is yourgrand- grand- ancestor, if you were born in the UK) or with a fascinating life story.
The Capricorn man usually do not desire to have a timid housewife, who is afraid to stick her nose out, or even to have a boring Persian cat, that will just bask on the couch. When the Capricorn man decides to choose you, it will certainly be a wise and considered selection. Only seldom will the Capricorn man marry in a hurry to later regret it. The ability of forward thinking and avoiding everything useless is a typical personality trait of almost all of them.
Regarding the children, the Capricorn man will not spoil. He knows that the discipline, respect and responsibility are the foundation of a meaningful life. However, such man is able to return such strictness to the children in the form of generous birthday parties, Christmas gifts etc. The Capricorn will instil the sense of organization and reliability to others. If it will not suppress their enthusiasm and imagination, surely it would help them in adult life to resist the many temptations and pitfalls. The typical Sagittarius man is best known for his tenacious personality. Enjoy such favourable trait that may help you to overcome difficult times!
Capricorn Woman
Unlike the man the Capricorn woman is kind and welcoming. The sensuality and emotional depth is hidden in her heart. She is born to work, but she is also able to pause and pursue the family priorities. Women born under Capricorn have the tendency to “harden” on the mental and physical level in the old age. It can bring bitterness and discontent as well as better ability to resist to difficulties and to be stronger personality in general.
Personality Traits
These women have a natural grace and smart look. If you think that you will know in a few seconds whether the father of this seductive female standing in front of you is a university professor or a miner from Nevada, you are mistaken. Thanks to the innate charm and good manners of this woman, you will be long in doubts about her origin. And to ask the Capricorn woman directly would not be very tactful of course.
The Capricorn women are strongly committed to capture the right man. And this has to be the one to which they can be proud of and that will be later a good role model for the children. Carefulness and rationality are natural personality traits of the Capricorn woman. The objective when choosing a partner is simply the ability of financial security and the sufficient authority. The Capricorn woman is a realist and she will believe your plans only if they are not too vague or extreme. Once she will sense that you have steady personality and that you are clever and ambitious enough, it will encourage her natural passion.
For the Capricorn woman the economy does not necessarily mean buying the cheap stuff. Good shoes, that will last a few adventures in the Amazonian rainforest, are in fact ultimately cheaper than the replacement of poor quality sneakers three times a year. And a knife from the hardest steel, which will save your life on the journey around the world is literally priceless. Saving is needed but only on the right place. And this woman knows which one it is. We can say that the far-seeing thrift is her typical personality trait.
You do not have to lavish compliments on her. She is pragmatic and usually knows how beautiful and smart she is. If your flattery is false, the Capricorn woman will sense it rapidly. To be focused, logical but intuitive at the same time, these are the essential personality traits of all Capricorn women. If you like to carry her over the threshold of your house in a wedding dress, keep a firm foundation under it and a repaid mortgage if possible. Moreover, the Capricorn woman will appreciate your imagination and the sense of romance, but every fairy elf would make better if he would skip all the secrets and would straight reveal where the treasure is hidden.
