Things To Know About Capricorns

The symbol for Capricorn is the sea-goat, a goat with the tail of a fish. To the subjective mind this makes no sense, & you will never comprehend us until you learn to rise above your subjectivity. Everything about us is a paradox.

You only think we can read your mind. We can't really. We don't need to. We see through you the way an adult sees through a child.

To my knowledge, no one has coined the phrase 'Capricorn's intuition.' They should. Seriously, how do we know the things that we know? The truth is that even we don't know how we know, & even we find it a little spooky sometimes.

If we seem like bigger assholes than most, it's only because we refuse to be two-faced. We won't say anything behind your back that we are unwilling to say to you directly, & we will not pretend to like someone whom we dislike.

One caveat: We will pretend to like someone whom we dislike if doing so is necessary to the well-being of someone we care about.

Capricorn is the most patient sun sign in the entire zodiac. Ironically, we are also the sign least likely to have any patience with your immature bullshit.

If you piss us off once, that's strike one. If you do it again, that's strike three.

Capricorns sleep longer & more soundly than any other personage in the zodiac. Because we have no conscience.

Capricorns' brains work very slowly. This is not the same thing as being stupid. On the contrary, it is what makes us the deepest, most profound thinkers in the zodiac. We may not be as quick-witted as a Taurus or a Sagittarius, but we understand things on a level which they cannot.

Because of the slowness of our thinking, most Capricorns will perform poorly at any task which requires a quick reaction time.

It's not that we don't like you. If you could see inside our heads, you'd be surprised how much we actually do like you. We just need space; that's all. We prefer to like you from afar.

If you want advice from someone who will speak the truth bluntly with no regard for your feelings, ask a Scorpio. If you want advice from someone who will spare you the truth to spare your feelings, ask a Cancer. If you want advice from someone with the wisdom to illuminate your situation in a way that regards both the truth & your feelings, ask a Capricorn.

Just don't expect a quick answer. We'll probably need a day or so to get back to you.

All Capricorns are geniuses on the guitar. If there's a Capricorn in a band, he/she's probably the guitarist. It's just in our DNA. Hell, the first time I ever held a guitar, at the age of four, I ripped out one of John McLaughlin's solos from Bitches Brew like it was Chopsticks. You think I'm making this up? Absolutely true.

Maybe I was making it up. It's hard to tell with us, isn't it? We are known for displaying an absurd sense of humor, even while being serious. To us, life itself is a humorous absurdity, & no one takes life more seriously than us.

Though thought to be cold & soulless, Capricorns are as deep emotionally as we are intellectually. We just don't let you see it. We hide our emotions beneath an aloof exterior so you pussies won't be frightened.

Capricorns are absolutely arrogant. This is not like the relative arrogance of an Aries or a Leo, signs that come across as arrogant even while they desperately try everything in their power to make you admire them. We make no attempts to impress you because we do not give a fuck what you think.

Capricorns are absolutely humble. Even though our self-respect is absolute, we honestly don't think we're better than anyone else. We consider everyone's input worthy of consideration, & we regard everyone as an equal.
