Earth - Article by Astrology.com Earth BY ASTROLOGY.COM NOVEMBER 25, 2009 12:05 PM EST Share Share Share The element of Earth is attached to the signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, and it also rules the Second, Sixth and Seventh Houses. All the earthy metaphors are appropriate here: salt of the Earth, feet firmly planted on the ground and so forth. Those graced by an Earth sign in their horoscope are practical, grounded and dependable. These folks don’t take big risks; rather, they much prefer a sure thing. Much like the elements are considered the building blocks in nature, Earth signs are the builders of the zodiac. To these signs, creation is a tangible proposition. Whether it's building jobs or a home, or creating comfortable rooms within that home through the acquisition of possessions, Earth signers are all about what is solid around us. Those influenced by this element feel best once they have accumulated a goodly number of worldly possessions. The risk inherent in this, however, is that these individuals may become greedy and far too materialistic. The element of Earth also confers a sense of duty, responsibility and reliability to those in its sphere.

These are the people you can count on to be there when you need them. Those influenced by Earth also tend toward caution and conservatism, in both desire and approach. That said, they are sensualists, certainly in that they appreciate a good meal and fine wine better than anyone else. The logical mind of an Earth Signer is always appreciated. In keeping with this measured approach, these folks also display considerable recuperative powers. On the flip side of things, however, those supported by Earth may be so caught up in their objectives that they might overlook the feelings of others. It is a big picture, after all, but these folks may be more concerned with the finish line than the journey they are taking. Earth signs are dependable, practical and conservative, yet fairly materialistic. They have their feet on the ground but their eyes on the prize. Sponsored Link The Earth Element -- Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo By Molly Hall Updated June 07, 2016. The Earth element is one of rooting in, crafting and conserving. And it's the sign of engaging with life via the senses.

The Earth signs are Capricorn , Taurus and Virgo In Astrology, the signs are grouped in four triplicities based on their element . The triplicities are water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), air signs (Libra, Aquarius, Gemini) and earth signs (Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo). Each has the three Zodiac signs associated with that element. Are You Earthy? It's common to hear someone described as "earthy." Such a person blends in with their natural habitat. They're sensual, meaning they engage with life through the five senses. It takes time to sense the dense physical world, and earth signs can operate at a slower, more thorough pace than the other elements. They're oriented toward what's real, and often this makes them very productive, able to create tangible results. But if there are no balancing elements, earth's extremes could lead to being a work-a-holic, hoarding of possessions, pettiness, getting stuck in the mundane, stubbornness, etc.

continue reading below our video The 4 Modes in Astrology The Different Modalities - Earth Signs The modalities (or qualities) make the earth signs different -- this is how you can know one from another. In their triplicity, or grouping by element, they differ in that each belongs to another group known in astrology as "qualities." The qualities are Cardinal , Fixed and Mutable . Capricorn is a Cardinal sign, known for its initiatory nature, Taurus is a Fixed sign, and it sinks into the Earth perhaps the deepest, and Virgo is a Mutable sign, characterized by changeability. Earth and Water Earth signs can help the emotional Water signs find tangible outlets for imaginative gifts. Like the banks to a flowing river, the Earth sign can guide the Water sign toward a goal. Water can help Earth by softening its rigid structure. If you think of how a potter uses water to soften, and then re-shape clay on the wheel, you get the picture. Water nourishes the ground of Earth with a feeling of being cared for, and this can add a dimension of meaning to their lives.

Earth and Fire Earth signs gain from the inspirational quality of Fire, and this adds a sense of adventure and a touch of the hero's journey to their life story. They'll be energized by Fire, as long as it doesn't scorch them by being too much, too soon. A little Fire goes a long way with Earth. On the other hand, Fire can be guided by Earth's mastery of structure. All those brilliant ideas can begin to take shape with Earth as your worldly advisor. Earth and Air When Earth meets Air, it's like opening the window to let the fresh air in. It can be exhilarating to Earth to be lifted up, if only temporarily, to see from the lofty heights of fantasy and rapid ideation. But if Air doesn't offer Earth anything tangible, only pies in the sky, there could be a loss of respect. As with the other signs, Earth brings Air down to ground level, and offers practical ways to take concept to reality. Air can find Earth stuffy and slow, but will begrudgingly respect the way they get things done. Earth and Earth Here is a power duo, able to build empires, plan things down to the last detail and always with one eye on preparing for the future.

Theirs is a world full of things to see, touch, hear, taste and feel together. But two Earth signs can fall into the trap of working for tomorrow and not living for today. They'll avoid this by seeking out sensual pleasures, and making time for relaxing in their "garden." Keywords: practical, useful, structure, productivity, tangible, grounded, sensual, tactile, dependable The Earth Element - Do You Have Too Much or Too Little? Those with Earth signs often seem to inhabit their physical bodies which can be described in new-age terms as "grounded." Whatever their ground is -- whether it is a high-rise office building or rural cottage -- they're sending out feelers through the senses. The physical is the densest plane, and they're masters at assessing and organizing tangible things. One expression of Earth sign qualities, and I'm envisioning a hippie chick here, might be someone who is easy-going and languid, aware of the local flora and fauna, often have leaves in their hair or dirt on their hands. They're intimately attuned to the dance of nature, and love to spend time outdoors.

But Earth signs can just as easily work their magic in urban places, since they're often centers of a certain kind of high-level productivity. The focus on the tasks at hand make them vulnerable to the "all work and no play" cul de sac of life. They're more apt to base their reality on what is around them in form, instead of creating personal myths or assigning symbolic meanings to everything. That's why too much of a good thing -- Earth -- can be stifling to things like inspiration, going on faith, a sense of purpose. Earth signs are here to shape, manifest, cultivate and revel in Earthly delights. Their gift to others is bringing form to ideas, making them a balancing partner for an idle dreamer with potential. They tend their own garden, and inspire others to make the most of theirs.

Natal Chart Calculator: Alan Oken - The Wisdom of Astrology - The Earth and its Meaning in Your Horoscope Alan Oken - The Wisdom of Astrology You are here: Home » Articles The Earth and its Meaning in Your Horoscope That which is on its way comes as a cloud which veils the Sun. But hid behind this cloud of immanence is love, and on the Earth is love and in the heaven is love, and this—the love which maketh all things new—must stand revealed.— Alice Bailey, Esoteric Psychology It is a very simple matter to find the location of the Earth in your horoscope. It is always located exactly 180º from the position of the Sun and therefore makes a perfect opposition to the solar force. Thus if you have the Sun at 14.21 Taurus, the Earth would be found in your natal chart at 14.21 Scorpio.

This is highly significant esoterically and has considerable meaning for us as we search for the ability to fulfill our soul´s purpose in the present lifetime. The Sun represents the vital energies and the “equipment” of the present incarnation. The position of the Earth tells us through what means (the zodiac sign) and in which area of our life (the house position) we are to anchor ourselves in order to best use the gift of life (the Sun) for the service of the soul. As the Earth is the esoteric ruler of Sagittarius, and the latter points the way to the Mountaintop of Initiation (Capricorn) with his bow and arrow, the Earth in the natal chart represents the physical location of a person’s Path. What helpful information to know! The balance between our inner and outer journey, between our envisioned spiritual goal and the actual field of service we have to create in order to get there, is very much embodied in the sign of the Centaur-Archer. The key to our success in this matter is very much connected to the Third Ray of Active Intelligence, as the energy of life always follows thought. The Third Ray is both the Ray of the Earth and the Ray of Saturn.

These two planets are therefore very closely linked. As we know, Saturn is both the esoteric as well as the exoteric ruler of Capricorn. It is through the one-pointed focus on mind, creatively active through the Path of Service, that brings us to the Mountaintop. Saturn’s influence will also partner the Earth. The ringed Lord of Karma accompanies the energy and purpose of the Earth in our chart in order to motivate the outworking of one’s personal sense of responsibility to the planet and to the Path. We can therefore state that Saturn represents our karma (what we need to fulfill) while the Earth indicates the nature of our dharma (the Way we go about fulfilling it). Sagittarius is the sign of the Path while Capricorn is the sign of the Initiate, the goal of the Path. The nature of the Third Ray is an essential component of this relationship as it is the Ray of both the Earth and Saturn as well as one of the primary Rays of the sign Capricorn itself.

In all the combinations which follow, you are advised to included the influences of Saturn, Sagittarius, and the Third Ray, for wherever the Earth is placed in your chart, so too is the karma of your Path and the vision of your Goal. Earth in Aries: A position which points to a life that serves to release or stimulate Active Intelligence (the energy of the “Mind of God”) into the environment. This is accomplished by awakening first oneself and then others to the more spiritual uses of the Earth’s (and one’s own) physical resources. The position of the Sun in Libra in this respect, shows that such resources have to be distributed for the benefit of the collective (Uranus as esoteric ruler of Libra) and for the purpose of Right Human Relations (Venus as Libra’s exoteric ruler). Earth in the First House: The soul’s physical purpose emerges as a result of the struggles and achievements in the realm of our personal relationships (Sun in the Seventh House). The person is to learn how to individualize Active Intelligence and then use his or her awakened intelligence for the common good.

This requires a clear prioritization of one’s field of service so that the dynamics of relationship support (and do not interfere with) the higher goal of life. Earth in Taurus: A most potent position for the dispelling of material glamours and illusions! The soul-centered person would be constantly involved in the process of breaking down those forms and structures that are no longer able to transmit Light. The Earth in Taurus serves to reveal the inner spiritual reality of life that is all too often hidden in the material. Earth in the Second House: A wonderful position of the Earth as it reveals that the individual has a great reserve of life energy, spiritual resources and “prana” (solar vitality). The goal of this life is to be able to shape the various forms of matter so that they express spiritual values and soul purpose. The challenge has to due with the transmutation of desire (Sun in the Eighth House). Earth in Gemini: Venus, planet of the Love which unites all of life into a higher purpose, is the esoteric ruler of the Twins. This position gives the individual the opportunity to communicate the Path of Union into the world.

It is accomplished through higher learning (Sun in Sagittarius) and the Path of healing and teaching (the Second Ray quality of Gemini). Earth in the Third House: This position reveals where in your life the duality between the soul and the personality is anchored and where such duality may be united. This is accomplished through the link between the higher and lower minds and the field of activity (one’s service to the planet) where such unification may take place. The sign on the cusp of the Third House will tell you a great deal about how to go about bringing such healing into your own and other people’s lives. Earth in Cancer: Cancer is also a Third Ray sign as is Capricorn, the position of the Sun when the Earth is in this position. Thus Saturn plays an essential role here and requires the individual to create a clear and precise foundation for the work of the soul in the present incarnation. The dharma of the incarnation is worked out through the creation of those thoughts and structures which nurture other people’s Path towards Light. By so doing, one’s own Path is clarified and focused. Earth in the Fourth House: One’s own biological inheritance has to become a stabilizing force for life’s achievements (Sun in the Tenth).

This may require the transformation of one’s attachment to one’s physical mother (and hence to one’s psychological matrix) into a clearer relationship with “The Mother”: mother nature, the female quality of Divinity, and the mother of humanity. When in this position, one is literally “standing on the Earth” and a positive relationship with the nurturing dynamics of our planet is absolutely required. Earth in Leo: The highly personalized focus of Leo helps the Sun in Aquarius to shape his individualized path of service. It is then that the Water Bearer can move out into life and distribute his waters to the whole of humanity, thus releasing his “burden of consciousness” into a waiting world.. Leo brings out both the First Ray of Will/Power and along with Aquarius, the Fifth Ray of Concrete Knowledge. The right use of will has to be incorporated into this task so that the drives of the personality comes under the will of the soul. Earth in the Fifth House: It is in this position that the Earth stimulates those creative activities which bring about an increase in the development of the Will of the soul, the Will-to-Good.

The soul-centered individual with this placement may find that her sense of contribution to humanity (Sun in the eleventh house) is geared to all the world’s children. Earth in Virgo: A very healing position as the sign Virgo on the soul level stimulates synthesis and thus, wholeness. The Earth in Virgo gives an intuitive perception of what “works” in a given life situation, thus bringing about a focus of practicality that aids in the expression of service to the Plan. As the Moon is the esoteric ruler of this sign, the combination of Mother Earth and Mother Moon bestow and incredible degree of nurturing and compassion to the already empathetic Sun in Pisces. Earth in the Sixth House: The door to the collective resources of the planet, so evident to a soul-centered individual with the Sun in the twelfth house, take on a more precise form of usefulness when the Earth is in this position. The work of the soul becomes one’s job, and the release of the healing powers of the soul become one’s purpose. Earth in Libra: The Sun in Aries releases its urge to stimulate and uplift the ideas in the mind of humankind through Uranus, the esoteric ruler of Libra.

When the Earth is in this position, a soul-centered individual comes into contact with those relationships, both on personal and group levels, to allow this purpose the opportunity for fulfillment. Thus the Earth in Libra provides a vehicle for the birthing of those ideas “whose time has come”. Earth in the Seventh House: The emphasis on the individual self, so much the meaning when the Sun is in the first house, is modified and focused when the Earth is in the seventh. It will be through the tests brought about in the urge to unite oneself with others, that a clear indication is given as to how the nature of partnership will fulfill the Path of one’s higher goals. Earth in Scorpio: Mars enters into an intimate relationship with the Earth when in this position and reveals how the breaking down of our attachment to the material nature of life (Sun in Taurus) may be accomplished. This is never a simple task! It requires the devotion to the soul’s desires (brought about through the Six Ray quality of the Red Planet) and the ability to withstand the pressures and tensions of transformation inherent in the signs Scorpio and Taurus and their Ray, the Fourth.

Earth in the Eighth House: This is the area in life where the transformational process indicated in the previous paragraph takes place. It is the battle ground for the development of one’s talents and resources (Sun in the second) so that they may find their usefulness for the collective good of humanity. The results that are achieved from the potential victory of the Earth in the eighth is that our life energy in general and our material resources in particular become more potent vehicles for the fulfillment of our dharma. Earth in Sagittarius: As this is the sign of the Earth’s rulership, the potential gift of this placement is very great. When the soul-centered person anchors his feet firmly on the Earth, Sagittarius opens the Path very wide not only for this particular individual but for many others to follow along the Way. The communicative energies of the Sun in Gemini bring the most potent Ray force into this combination. This is the Second Ray of Love/Wisdom. The purpose and intent of the incarnation become very clear: let the knowledge of the Higher Way be distributed to all who can hear and learn. Earth in the Ninth House: Education will be at the center of one’s life. Learning will be the most important occupation and teaching what is learned will follow.

There is a great need to bring about a sense of unity to the diversity of human religions and belief systems so that humanity will come to understand that the basis of all truth is Love. Earth in Capricorn: Saturn intimately joins the Earth in this combination. It points to the challenges in life that involve the proper structuring and discipline of our life force so that it is placed directly on the Path of the Will-to-Good. The emotional energies of the Sun in Cancer must also be directed to this outcome as there is no room for duality when the Earth is in this position. Earth in the Tenth House: The culmination of our efforts to secure a firm foundation for our spiritual purpose (the Sun in the fourth) is indicated by this placement of the Earth in the natal chart. Our vocation must become our avocation and the direction of our Path is such that our use of our social position in life is geared to the precise purpose of world service. Earth in Aquarius: The developed sense of self-consciousness found in the life of the soul-centered individual with the Sun in Leo finds ample opportunity for world service when the Earth occupies the sign of the Water Bearer.

This position also gives one the ability to channel and distribute many innovative concepts into the collective consciousness that serve the well being of humanity. Earth in the Eleventh House: It is here that the highly creative energies of the Sun in the fifth house find an outlet through group activities. This position of the Earth is a fine testing ground to see how the soul-centered individual can contribute his or her individualized field of service into a wider sphere of participation. There is no room here for the emphasis of the personality as the fulfillment of one’s personal dharma is directly connected to the collective purpose of humanity’s evolutionary development. Earth in Pisces: The idealism and compassion of Jupiter and Neptune, the exoteric rulers of this sign are joined with the potent First Ray energies of Will/Power found in Pluto, the soul-centered ruler of the Fish. This brings about the need to work selflessly in order to release people from the illusions of the astral nature. The Sun in Virgo gives balance to this placement by focusing such efforts in very practical realms. One of the healing professions will be a very natural outlet for this combination. Earth in the Twelfth House: The formative qualities of the Third Ray have ample opportunity for expression when the Earth is in this position.

The individual has a wide choice of possible ways to manifest his or her dharma, a factor further emphasized by the sixth house placement of the Sun. The need to align the personal will with the will of the soul is absolutely required so that the application of Active Intelligence yields precision in the expression of the urge to serve. © Copyright 2015 alanoken.com The Earth Signs The Earth Signs By Brian Palenske This group has been named the Earth Signs because each of these signs has a cold and dry nature, in that these are the fundamental properties of the Earth Element. Their common characteristics are generally like the nature of Earth itself, and are shown through their practical, serious and quiet natures. ADVERTISEMENT People born into Earth Signs tend to be careful about what they do, being concerned about their reputation and well-being. Capricorn Trigon The Earth Signs were originally known as the Capricorn Trigon. The three signs belonging to this Trigon are Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo. When three signs are 120 degrees apart from one another, or if you draw straight lines to connect them, and those lines form an Equilateral Triangle, they form a Trigon.

Unless there are astrological factors at play on the day of birth that prevent the Earth Element from expressing itself fully, Earth Sign people will tend to take solid and deliberate action toward achieving their goals. People born under Earth Signs are known for their ability to pursue material objectives with certainty and confidence. They don't become attached to others easily, and demonstrate their love through their actions, rather than their words. The Individual Signs Each of the Zodiac signs have characteristics that they don't share with the other signs of the same element, mostly due to the difference in Quadrature or Quality. Capricorn Capricorn , being the Cardinal Sign of the group, is the most ambitious of the Earth Signs, and tends to lead by example. Capricorn people generally possess a good deal of discipline, and tend to avoid doing whatever they consider to be unnecessary. They tend to be very reliable, and have a dislike for emotional display; they can't see the profit in it. Taurus Taurus is the Fixed Sign , and tends to be very solid and practical in their behavior. They don't generally like a lot of noise and activity around them, and prefer home, tradition and nature for material and emotional support. They can, however, be rather stubborn at times.

Virgo Virgo is the Mutable Sign of the Trigon, and loves being useful. Many Virgos are known for their precision and attention to detail, and are happy to share their well-honed skills with others, but can be critical when they are trying to be of help. Earth Signs and Compatibility As you probably have read before, the ancient philosophers regarded the equilateral triangle as a "pure" form; it was the basis of one of the 5 Platonic Solids. Because of this balance, signs that belong to the same Trigon are essentially one elemental unit, sharing the same characteristics. According to this kind of thinking, Capricorn should be a good match for Taurus or Virgo. But there are other factors in the vast realm of astrology that contribute to compatibility between people, who are not just their Zodiac Signs alone. The positions of the Moon and the planets at the time of birth, contribute to an almost infinite set of variations that modify the nature of everyone born under each sign. Compatibility with Other Earth Signs Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo tend to do well with one another. Capricorn may put achievement above affection, whereas Taurus will often be uncompromising, especially with their partners.

Virgo has a need for privacy that comes to the foreground every once and a while. The Earth Signs are known to get on famously, even more than members of the other Trigons do with each other. All three Earth Signs are somewhat materialistic, but deal with it in very different ways. Capricorn considers material possessions and status as the source of security, whereas Taurus seeks it through stability and tradition. Virgo looks for security of the body and mind, and considers health as the most important possession one can acquire. Compatibility with Other Elements According to the conventional wisdom, the Earth Signs are generally compatible with the Water Signs , because the element of Water can nurture Earth. According to classical definitions, the Earth Signs are cold and dry, while the Water Signs are cold and wet; the coolness they have in common, and the moisture and dryness bring them into balance. In other words, Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo are usually compatible with Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Nevertheless, this is a very general scheme of the Zodiac signs; sometimes Virgo may be frustrated by the lack of practical thinking of Pisces, or Capricorn could be irritated by Cancer's moodiness.

Taurus may sometimes think that Scorpio is hiding something from them. Compatibility Conclusion It should be clear that by the general, or archetypal scheme, the Earth Signs do well with one another, and share a natural compatibility with the Water Signs.

The Earth Element Sep 18, 2016 The Earth Element Videos , Elements , Earth , Astrology While each of the four elements is integral to life and survival, Earth is most connected to the physicality of life. Earth isn't aggressive, it's receptive. And that's is key to understanding its potency. There is a quality of strength and endurance Earth possesses that is an indomitable force. At the same time, however, there is a certain amount of peacefulness connected to the Earth element. Sure, Earth can be passive ... but by no means is Earth weak! Learn more about the Earth element: Without Earth, we would have nothing to hold us up. No foundation. No support. Earth is attuned to form and matter. These assets help to explain why the Earth signs are the most practical and durable of the zodiac.

And you can see how much Earth energy you have in your chart with an Essential Birth Report . What also helps Earth succeed wildly in our corporeal environment is the fact that the element of Earth is intricately connected with the physical senses. This allows Earth an intuitive grasp as to how the material world works -- an almost natural understanding. Earth has the ability to use this instinct to ensure physical security is maintained, while also achieving a thorough enjoyment and appreciation of everything the physical world has to offer. Solid traits Because of these propensities, Earth is the element of patience, stability, commitment, discipline, permanence and strength. Nothing can grow without these qualities and the end result with Earth is typically prosperity. Earth may be slow and methodical, but it is also ultimately successful. Earth's tendencies towards being so practical can have its drawbacks. Imagination may be lacking in Earth since the focus is mostly on what can be proven to exist by virtue of what one sees, tastes, touches, feels or hears. An inability to deal with what cannot be explained in our physical universe can limit Earth's potency and lead to a rigid, narrow minded, materialistic view of life and our world.

Still, if Earth can open itself up to that which it cannot sink its teeth into then, its potential to achieve prosperity will enhance tenfold. Broken down by sign... While all of the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) will share these qualities of the Earth element, each will express them in a unique manner. Taurus will convey a deep attunement and appreciation of the physical senses and will often successfully take command of preserving physical security. Virgo will masterfully volunteer to be of service to others, displaying a humble, flexible demeanor while expertly executing any task they commit to. Capricorn will climb the most unbearable mountain with perseverance and ambitious determination in order to achieve any goal they set for themselves. Capricorn | Starlight Creations ELEMENT Earth QUALITY Cardinal Capricorn is reserved, prudent, patient, uses strategy instead of force, seeks security, is acquisitive, disciplined, determined, and quick to seize opportunity.

Each Decan roughly corresponds to 10 degrees or 10 days of the Star Signs time period. Decans can provide a more detailed account of an individual’s personality traits and character and reveal how people born under the same Star sign can be very different. The Capricorn personality can differ according to which one of the Capricorn Decans an individual is born under: If you were born between December 22 and January 1 This is the first of the Capricorn Decans and is ruled by the planet Saturn.

The first Decan Capricorn personality is characterised by patience, determination and hard work. Capricorns are always hard working but this applies even more so to the first of the Capricorn Decans. You also have the determination, strength and will to complete any worthwhile project. You have tremendous patience but this is tested by ‘airy fairy’ people who have their head in the clouds and have fanciful ideas. This is because you cannot relate to them as you are well grounded with your feet firmly on the ground. You like to get the job done, rather than dreaming about it. You are extremely loyal and devoted to those you love and will strive to provide material wealth and security for them. Material wealth is important to you as it firstly shows others how successful you are and thus commands their respect. You value the respect from others, rather than their affection or love. Material wealth also allows you to spoil those you hold dear. You have the potential to be in careers that allow you to be very successful and powerful. You can be very competitive in the workplace and with your dogged determination will never lose sight of the prize.

The main flaw in this first Decan Capricorn personality are that you can be the victim of low moods, depression or mood swings. If you were born between January 2 and January 11 This is the second of the Capricorn Decans and is ruled by the planet Venus. The second Decan Capricorn personality is characterised by charm, creativity and adaptable. Of all the Capricorn Decans you are by far the most charming and sociable. You collect a lot of good friends throughout your life, as they like your company. Your creative skills are many and you can create great success for yourself by using them wisely. Your relentless ambition combined with your hard work will allow you to climb to very top of any profession you choose – so long as it uses your creativity. You take the view that if a job is worth doing, it’s worth doing well. This applies not just to your career path but also to your friendships and love relationships. You cultivate and maintain your relationships with 100% loyalty, attention and affection. The main flaw in this second Decan Capricorn personality is pessimism. Your pessimistic streak can sometimes overtake you and can lead to low moods.

If you were born between January 12 and January 20 This is the third of the Capricorn Decans and is ruled by the planet Mercury. The third Decan Capricorn personality is characterised by intelligence, loyalty and discipline. You like your world to be ordered, structured and disciplined. You have little time for fanciful notions and abstract concepts. Although you do enjoy the finer things in life and admire beautiful things, you need them to have a practical and functional use as well. Of all the Capricorn Decans you are the most intelligent and if you are able to override your innate shyness can become a gifted communicator. Your intelligence coupled with your desire to accomplish makes you ideally suited to careers that demand shrewdness and attention to detail. The Legal profession, law enforcement and teaching are all areas that you can excel in. You are tremendously loyal and faithful in all your relationships. Once you have placed your trust in someone and allowed them into your life you will fully commit to them. The main flaw in this third Decan Capricorn personality is a tendency to dwell on the past and hold grudges. CAPRICORN LOVE COMPATIBILITY Capricorn and Aries Love Compatibility Not a hopeful combination.

Saturn, represented by Father Time, is the Capricorn’s standard bearer. The Aries is a restless,fiery, impulsive experimenter. The Capricorn is on the contrary sanctimonious person. Capricorn needs to dominate and so does Aries. Problems also crop up over money Aries is extravagant, Capricorn is security minded. Capricorn is a simple soul and Aries may be too overwhelming; Aries will take risks and enjoy them while the same risks will make Capricorn shudder. Some very violent quarrels can erupt due to this and the many other personality conflicts. Aries will not like the pessimistic gloom that Capricorn use to dampen the Aries enthusiasms. The Capricorn can prefer only one pose for making love or even the certain time. However, the Aries can take the initiative under his/her own control. If it takes place, a marriage is more preferable then a short connection. Capricorn and Taurus Love Compatibility Both partners having mutual understanding of each other’s personalities. Both the Capricorn and the Taurus like money, and sure that the safety is really important.

While the Taurus is a patient person the Capricorn is ready to work for both of them. Taurus can get through to aloof, cautious Capricorn and give the encouragement and responsiveness needed. Both have earthy, passionate natures, and sensual Taurus can tap the deep well of romanticism that lies under Capricorn’s reserve. This couple can conceive everything in the field of sex – every idea will come truth. Capricorn’s sexual appetite can be either over indulgent, or he/she may abstain altogether if affected by outside pressures. Taurus will need to be sensitive to Capricorns tension and be willing to discus it and ease his burden of guilt he/she may feel because of it. There are perfect prospects for that couple and it can turn out to be a very compatible marriage. Capricorn and Gemini Love Compatibility They have different sexual natures. The Saturn ruled Capricorn will be at odds with the Mercury ruled Gemini. The Gemini are usually easy-going, amorous people, while the Capricorn are sluggish, devoted, cautious. Capricorn will have a hard time holding the reins on excitable, flirtatious, wayward Gemini.

All of Capricorn’s patience is needed to deal with a partner it considers to be capricious, extravagant, and scatterbrained. In order for the sexual relationship to be a success, Gemini will have to distract Capricorns mind from his/her career and the problems that go with it. The initial interest can not last very long. Capricorn and Cancer Love Compatibility The Capricorn is not able to pay very much attention to the partner, and it doesn’t meet the Cancer’s wishes. The Capricorn has too much other interests. Both are good money managers and are unlikely to have many financial problems. Waste is an offense to Capricorn as is extravagance. Capricorn is a faithful and devoted mate which the more positive type of Cancer can be content with, even if life does get a little boring at times. However, there are a strong sexual attraction exists between these two signs. In a bedroom everything will be perfect, until Cancer feels bored with a practicality and restraint of the Capricorn. The connection is unstable, the marriage is undesirable. Capricorn and Leo Love Compatibility Ordered, organized Capricorn neither understands nor approves of Leo’s exuberant impulsiveness.

Leo forgives and forgets; Capricorn being the one who is slow to anger and seldom forgets. The Leo supposes that the Capricorn is full of love and spends it too economically. The Capricorn for his/her turn is also not the best partner for the Leo because of his/her poor imagination. The Capricorn is much more passionate in bed. They not fit each other in the bedroom. They are both representatives of independent signs of the zodiac that inclined to dominate in everyday life. These two are almost complete opposites and in case of a love affair their distinctions can appear insignificant, but in case of marriage they will never be happy together. Capricorn and Virgo Love Compatibility Virgo’s neat orderly mind meshes well with Capricorn’s self-discipline and capacity for hard work. Both take pride in their home, enjoy having a few close friends rather than many acquaintances, and admire each other’s intellectual abilities. The Caoricorn’s practicality suits the Virgo’s accuracy perfectly. There are possible misunderstandings in the field of sex, but they know and feel each other so well, that these misunderstandings don’t disturb them. They are both – clever, conservative and patient.

This relationship could suffer from lack of romance, as both tend to be a bit reserved in this area. Generally there is a good basis for a long union. Capricorn and Libra Love Compatibility Capricorn has a strong sexual interest in the Libra. Libra in her/his part likes the Capricorn’s aspiration to earn money. However, the Libra’s propensity for laziness irritates the Capricorn who got used to work without a rest. As a result the Libra will be dissatisfied by a Capricorn’s sober practicality. The Capricorn wouldn’t like Libra’s constant attempts to be center of everyone’s attention. Capricorn will even bring his/her work to bed, literally, and it will be up to Libra to distract him/her long enough for sexual relations to take place. A sign such as Libra is not about to put up with this for very long before greener pastures are sought out. There is too big personal incompatibility for a successful marriage. Capricorn and Scorpio Love Compatibility This union means successful sexual mutual relationships. Scorpio is the more imaginative lover, but Capricorn’s stamina is a delightful match.

Scorpio’s possessiveness spells security to Capricorn. These two work well as a team – Capricorn is highly organized and Scorpio has native shrewdness. The Scorpio is more inventive, while the Capricorn is more patient. Their success in bedroom opens some interesting opportunities. The representatives of both signs have strong will, but the Scorpio is inclined to dominate. The Capricorn must understand, that it happens because of the Scorpio’s great love. The connection is usually passionate and marriages are successful. Capricorn and Sagittarius Love Compatibility Unless Sagittarius can clip their wings a bit, there is strong warning against this combination. The Capricorn loves making love in some certain places while the Sagittarius is ready to do it everywhere. The Capricorn is cautious and conservative. He/she always worries about safety. The Sagittarius is a careless and irresponsible player. The Sagittarius will be irritated by the close-fisted Capricorn. Their sex life is very apt to be frustrating for both parties, although Sagittarius will feel this more keenly than Capricorn. This is not the best connection, and will end up as unsuccessful marriage in the future.

Capricorn and Capricorn Love Compatibility Capricorn approves of people like him/herself, so with these two there’s no lack of mutual respect and regard. Both are cautious, reserved personalities who work hard and love to save money. The biggest problem here will be keeping things lively and new. They are both alike in their values and many of their actions. Things could become too serious for too long and stubbornness could cause some alienation. Capricorn needs a more carefree, light hearted sexual partner to keep his/her interest in bedroom affairs stirred up and with these two signs there is not likely to be any kind of love life to speak of, as they will be mentally working on their careers rather than on each other. This is not the best match and not very exciting marriage as a result. Capricorn and Aquarius Love Compatibility Both signs have a strong sense of self, but Aquarius wants to be free and Capricorn wants to dominate. They will find out soon that their romance has turned into a friendship. it is uneasy for the Capricorn to cope with the Aquarius in intimate affairs. The Aquarius is a inventive, free-will person.

He/she can’t long be in love with the practical Capricorn. Aquarius is continually on the go and likes to spend money. Capricorn considers that frivolous and tries to impose strict controls. Aquarius may go through a number of jobs, searching for the right challenges but Capricorns’ need for financial security is so strong that this will horrify him/her. This is not a satisfactory connection, and marriage will require efforts. Capricorn and Pisces Love Compatibility The Pisces will probably try to cheat on the Capricorn, because it is in their character, but the Capricorn is able to cope with it and will be the leader in bed. The Pisces will soon decide to follow him/her. The Pisces are affectionate and sincere creatures and can make the Capricorn’s life full of joy. Capricorn provides a ballast for Pisces’s drifting dreaminess and supplies the stability that Pisces needs and admires. And there’s nothing Capricorn likes better than being admired. These very different people supplement each other emotionally. It is a good combination with complimentary values. They will find comfort in one another providing Capricorn displays his/her emotions at least once in awhile.

There is very good forecast for these relationships.
