One of the Capricorn personality's most positive features is its sense of humour. This is something which often sustains Capricorn in its efforts to impose some order on the world, or wisely master its resources. Although the humour is likely to be dry, it does involve contact with other people (something that the self-contained Capricorn does not excel at). What the Capricorn personality is very good at is everything that others (excepts for Earth signs) find a little tedious. Capricorn is endlessly prudent, prudent, reliable, persevering and disciplined.

CONSERVER

Most Capricorn are in favour of conserving assets and are firm

 supporters of all things traditional and conventional. They can also become fanatical moralists, opposing

 anything that contradicts their view of the world. But they are also widely known for their generosity of nature

AUTHORITARIAN

The Capricorn's need to be in control can even extend to the outer limits of authoritarianism. They distrust anything spontaneous, if it tends to deflect them from their sense of purpose which is to go all out to change their environment to suit their needs.

The Dark Side

Capricorns can be extremely rigid and pessimistic in their outlook; and gloomy and depressed (and depressing) in their interaction with other people. they can also be emotionally cold and inhibited. The prudent and cautious side of the Capricorn nature can be taken to extremes, too, sometimes into the unsociable realm of the miser.

Proceeding through life cautiously and methodically, Capricorn seems to have an instinctive awareness of their abilities, which they apply resourcefully in the pursuit of definite goals. When their heads are down, little will distract them. However, they may have bouts of depression due to the hard  task they set themselves, and find it difficult to  let off steam.

Rigidity

While they are very tenacious in achieving their goals, Capricorns tend also to be rigid in their work patterns. This may be because they do not readily trust others to carry out their long-term plans. but they are also inclined to belittle the value of relaxation unless it serves a useful end - like a round of golf with the boss. Significantly, this rigidity in their character corresponds to those Capricorn ailments which restrict movement, such as rheumatism and arthritis.

Disciplined

Generally, Capricorn approach their health with the same discipline as their careers. They are a naturally active sign, but will only allow themselves the luxury of exercise if it fits into their scheme of things. There must always e a goal for them to set their sights on - a high mountain peak to conquer or a a vary challenging yoga position to achieve, for instance.

REPRESSION

Serious Capricorn can get bogged down in long periods of work which may gradually erode their health. Instead, it would be wise for them to develop interests involving a complete change of mood, and to realise the healing properties of playing just for play's sake on a regular basis in order to combat stress.

Confidence

Some Capricorn are so frightened of rejection and the possibility of being hurt that beginning a relationship can be difficult and opportunities are often missed. They may be short of self-confidence and are convinced that no one will ever find them attractive enough to embark on a long-term meaningful relationship.

Rivals

Flirtations do not appeal to most Capricorn, who prefer a permanent relationship that gives them emotional security. The partner of a Capricorn may find that the only serious rival for his or her affections is the Capricorn's career. Although they can often seem a touch too introverted for the first few meetings, once they relax and feel more comfortable with someone, are able to reveal more of themselves. One of their most appealing traits is a fantastic sense of humour, even when the joke is at their expense. Once trust is established, their confidence blossoms.

The heads rules the heart for Capricorn and they never marry without being totally sure about their partner. They are steady and careful in love rather than being full of surprise, and usually prove to be faithful and trusting lovers. Their ultimate goal in love is to feel secure.
