"   Daily Weekly Monthly Profile Compatibility See All Signs   CAPRICORN + ARIES (March 21 - April 19) Aries is the Alpha in most relationships, but here the Ram meets his match. In the Goat, Aries finds a more seasoned pack leader, and backs into a rare state of obedience. This weighty respect comes from Capricorn&amp;#039;s ruler, wise old Saturn, the planet of maturity, authority and command. Capricorn is the zodiac&amp;#039;s father sign; Aries is its firstborn child. It&amp;#039;s the difference between a king and a knight, a queen and a duchess. Both are noble, but one is clearly the elder. This can be a dealbreaker for Aries in some cases, as too much paternalism makes this independent sign run for freedom. However, it usually works. Although Aries can be a hellish brat, Capricorn is unruffled and even amused by the tantrums, giving Aries space to act out. If you accept your cosmic roles, you can make excellent partners in both love and business. Aries is ruled by warrior Mars, and Capricorn is a four-star general by nature. You both see life as a battlefield to conquer, and with Aries&amp;#039; grit and Cap&amp;#039;s determination, there&amp;#039;s no goal you can&amp;#039;t achieve. Earthy Capricorn excels at structure and planning, and is the terra firm beneath the Ram&amp;#039;s restless hooves. Fiery Aries is a daring playmate who amuses, excites and entertains the sober Goat, especially in the bedroom (where Capricorn has a lesser-known lusty side). Aries is a flirt, and this can spark jealousy in traditional Capricorn. Over time, trust and mutual respect abolish the Goat&amp;#039;s fears, and you make supportive lifelong partners. CAPRICORN + TAURUS (April 20 - May 20) \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 You&amp;#039;re fellow Earth signs who really vibe well together. By day, you&amp;#039;re both hard-driving workaholics. Taurus is the plodding Bull, Capricorn the sure-footed Mountain Goat. Any business venture you launch together will thrive, and you share a deep respect for tradition, family and long-term security. You&amp;#039;re both shrewd financial planners, though your love of earthly pleasures can break the bank, too. Once you punch out and uncork the Sancerre, you morph into a pair of hedonists. Sleeping and lounging are favorite pastimes, and on weekends, a forklift couldn&amp;#039;t pry you off the sofa. However, Capricorn is far more self-disciplined than the indulgent Bull. Taurus is ruled by Venus, the goddess of beauty and pleasure; Capricorn by strict Saturn, the cosmic taskmaster. Where Taurus is a megalomaniac forever humming his own praise song, poor Cappy flogs himself for even the slightest misstep. Saturn&amp;#039;s repression also gives Cap an eccentric side; he can fall into melancholy or fatalistic spells that confound Taurus. The Goat is always planning for rainy days\u2014and as karma goes, plan for a downpour, and you&amp;#039;ll surely get one. Taurus refuses to pack an umbrella, for he can&amp;#039;t fathom worrying about something that hasn&amp;#039;t even happened yet, nor shown up on the radar. You both have something to teach each other. The Bull is gifted at savoring the present, while nostalgic Capricorn obsesses over the past and the future. Strive to get your timing right. CAPRICORN + GEMINI (May 21 - June 20) A metaphor for this match: a music producer combines a soulful 1970s classic (Capricorn) with funky electronic hooks (Gemini) and delivers a mashup that&amp;#039;s either a mess or a chart-topping hit. You couldn&amp;#039;t be any more different if you tried, yet you can really benefit from each other&amp;#039;s natural resources. Gemini is ruled by speedy Mercury, the lightning-fast trickster who speaks in silver-tongued half truths. Capricorn&amp;#039;s overlord is Saturn, the cautious, conservative planetary patriarch, who only trusts that which stands the test of time. Gemini is versatile and restless, like a fusebox with a million criss-crossed wires. Capricorn is the dutiful ox who carries the yoke and plows the field, rarely diverging from routine. While Capricorn&amp;#039;s dogged consistency and family loyalty can frustrate Gemini (&amp;quot;How can you let these people walk all over you?&amp;quot; Gemini asks, referring to Cap&amp;#039;s elderly parents), it also grounds the scattered Twins.Gemini is Capricorn&amp;#039;s one-man circus, keeping the Goat amused and entertained, adding color to his monochromatic world. You both have a lusty, experimental side, too. The magic really appears when you get physical, which happens fast, since your sexual attraction is intense. In fact, Capricorn is one of the few signs that can spike Gemini&amp;#039;s jealousy. There are so many people who rely on sturdy, supportive Cap, and Gemini doesn&amp;#039;t like to compete for the spotlight. To make this work, Gemini will have to accept that Capricorn&amp;#039;s loyalty extends to family and lifelong friends. Stoic Cap will need to show a little more emotion, since impish Gemini needs to know he can get under Capricorn&amp;#039;s skin. It will take time to work out the kinks, but the erotic tet-a-tets will be worth the trouble. CAPRICORN + CANCER (June 21 - July 22) \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 Paging June and Ward Cleaver! Cancer is astrology&amp;#039;s mother and Capricorn is its patriarch. You&amp;#039;re opposite signs that might very well polarize into these retro roles. On the zodiac wheel, Cancer rules the fourth house of home, family and femininity. Capricorn governs its tenth house of fatherhood, authority, masculinity and ambition. In many ways, it&amp;#039;s nice to have a mate who happily redresses your shortcomings. Yet, it can also be off-putting. Cancer longs for touch and affection, misty-eyed Hallmark moments and emotionally naked conversations. Stoic Capricorn can be stiff and formal, a closet neurotic who pooh-poohs Cancer&amp;#039;s feelings as overblown melodramas. In truth, Capricorn just internalizes his feelings, then falls into depressions or flogs himself mercilessly. You must learn the other&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;love language&amp;quot; to succeed as a couple.Cancer shows caring through sentimental gestures, food, togetherness and well-intended nagging. Capricorn&amp;#039;s expression is through duty\u2014bringing home a steady paycheck, showing up on time, holding it together when everyone else falls apart. Capricorn must learn to honor Cancer&amp;#039;s feelings and intuition; the Crab must develop gratitude for Capricorn&amp;#039;s loyalty and quiet wisdom. Parenting is where you really shine as a team. Raising children is the ultimate honor for your signs, as well as a creative challenge. You&amp;#039;re both loyal to your families, no matter how much they drive you crazy. This is a quality you respect in each other. At the end of the day, you share enough common values to make a solid, lifelong match. CAPRICORN + LEO (July 23 - August 22) You&amp;#039;re insatiably attracted, but you often end up hurting each other through a series of misunderstandings and ego battles. Leo is ruled by the confident Sun, Capricorn by self-doubting Saturn. That&amp;#039;s just the start of your differences. Leo is a starry-eyed Fire sign who believes that anything can be achieved by sheer willpower and the refusal to take &amp;quot;no&amp;quot; for an answer. Capricorn is a traditional Earth sign, equally ambitious, but rarely willing to color outside the lines. He approaches life like a steady Mountain Goat, taking tentative steps toward his ten-year goals. Your different pacing could drive you both mad. Although loyal Capricorn is usually the stalwart partner in relationships, Leo is far more devoted in this match. Lusty Capricorn is mostly interested in sex. While you&amp;#039;ll have plenty of hot romps, Leo can mistake Capricorn&amp;#039;s physical attraction for love. Oops! The Lion must perform due diligence, and assume nothing. Unlike Leo, Capricorn&amp;#039;s love is hard-won, not something he hands out like candy to Trick-or-Treaters. Then, there&amp;#039;s the cheerleading that grates on the Goat. Leo urges Cap to believe in himself, which the Goat laughs off as fluff ripped straight from a cheesy self-help tome. Yet, lo!\u2014Leo follows Covey&amp;#039;s seven steps and becomes a highly successful person. Instead of congratulating Leo, war is declared: Capricorn scoffs at Leo&amp;#039;s dreams, and Leo sets out to prove Capricorn wrong (&amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll show you!&amp;quot;). Before long, you stay together just to spite each other. What&amp;#039;s the point? CAPRICORN + VIRGO (August 23 - September 22) \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 You&amp;#039;re pragmatic Earth signs who strike a perfect balance between sensible and sensual. You bring out the best in one another. Virgo is ruled by Mercury, the communication planet. A natural psychologist and articulate speaker, this sign likes to talk everything out. Stoic Capricorn is ruled by stern, repressed Saturn, and struggles to voice his feelings. Capricorn benefits from Virgo&amp;#039;s ability to draw him out of dark thoughts. When Virgo&amp;#039;s anxieties take hold, practical Capricorn brings a helpful dose of perspective. Dutiful souls, you take care of parents, friends and family members, and your cozy home is everyone&amp;#039;s favorite crash pad. Holidays and parties are warm, congenial affairs, and nobody wants to leave. Marriage is a sure success, and you laugh often, excellent medicine for your serious signs. The lovely thing about this combination is how natural you can be\u2014a refreshing break from your formal public demeanors. A favorite example: One Virgo friend, a singer-songwriter, was stricken with a creative block. Her Capricorn husband poked his head into her studio, and found her obsessing. She launched into complaining, and he deftly interrupted: &amp;quot;Wanna f---?&amp;quot; A satisfied hour later, she finished the song. Offensive to prim Virgo from any other sign, but Capricorn can go there. You relax into your carnal natures around each other, loosening up in ways that few other signs can elicit. CAPRICORN + LIBRA (September 23 - October 22) Capricorn is the provider sign, forever seeking a mate in need of financial backing. Libra is a vain dilettante who&amp;#039;s happy to play muse to an Earthy benefactor. You have your oft-irreconcilable differences, yet you stay together all the same. In many ways, you have what the other needs. Libra is a master of social graces with a billion air-kissed &amp;quot;friends.&amp;quot; Capricorn can be an antisocial grumble-puss who cleaves to childhood cronies and family. Libra spends on impulsive pleasures; Capricorn plans for tomorrow. Battles can be brutal. You&amp;#039;re both convinced of your natural superiority; your haughty contretemps and ego showdowns merit a Bravo series. Of course, antisocial Capricorn would never allow cameras into the estate, while Libra would whip together a stylist, understudy and five-star craft services. Therein lies the difference: your values. Not an easy hurdle to scale, even for a determined Goat or a patient Judge. A successful relationship will require much compromise. The fawning affection romantic Libra craves will be in short order. Capricorn shows love through acts of service and loyalty, not pandering. Libra must learn to accept love in a less-adorned package, and trade a few parties for cozy nights in. Capricorn must exit the cave to meet new people, play host and smile once a season. You can do it\u2014but will you be happy? That&amp;#039;s the question. CAPRICORN + SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21) \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 If you were to sign a pre-nup, Schedule A must clearly designate who will play the &amp;quot;Top&amp;quot; and who will be the &amp;quot;Bottom.&amp;quot; After your attorneys haggle over the prone position, you may just call off the engagement. An inability to reach settlement is likely for two uncompromising Alphas such as yourselves. Although your business-savvy signs can make quite the contemporary Napoleon and Josephine, LLC, there are terms that must be negotiated in advance. For one, you&amp;#039;ll need to swear off secrecy\u2014and that will be the true test of your relationship. Scorpio and Capricorn are masters of underhanded power plays that could topple this merger fast. Your first job: learn and practice direct communication (&amp;quot;whip me like THIS&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;no, darling, the leather corset, not the PVC&amp;quot;). Master it, and the rest is a cakewalk. You can lash each other to bedposts, tryst on the conference table in your glass-paned office tower, or earn your mile-high wings with nary a flight attendant knowing. The 2.5 kids you produce will have some interesting conception stories, that&amp;#039;s for sure. Not that you&amp;#039;ll ever tell. A little secrecy with the rest of the world is fine. Just make sure to erase those sex tapes before the housekeeper finds them. CAPRICORN + SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21) The fate of this match rests in your ability to merge your strengths. Sagittarius is the visionary and the starry-eyed optimist; Capricorn is the master architect and builder, the ultimate realist. You each excel where the other is weak, and you make excellent business partners. However, your values and lifestyles can be vastly different, complicating romance. It&amp;#039;s like the class clown dating the class president\u2014an odd couple indeed. To Sagittarius, it&amp;#039;s fascinating that anyone could possess such restraint. Stoic Capricorn cracks hard-won smiles at Sagittarius&amp;#039; antics and amusing insights. Yet, Sag optimism soon clashes with Cap pessimism, and here&amp;#039;s where you reach your impasse. Restless Sagittarius needs a playmate to dream and scheme, but cautious Cappy shoots holes in the Archer&amp;#039;s impetuous ideas, pointing out the foundational flaws. Yet, it&amp;#039;s that grim, unvarnished realism that saves the day in a crisis. While Sagittarius freaks out and lapses into denial, Earthy Capricorn holds a powerful, Zenlike acceptance of &amp;quot;what is.&amp;quot; Love truly blooms when you make it through a dire breakdown and realize your incredible teamwork turned the ship around. For the long haul, independent Sag must allow Capricorn to be the rock, and the Goat must learn to take a few more bold personal risks. CAPRICORN + CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19) Two ambitious Capricorns are on a lifelong mission to get ahead. If you can reach the brass ring faster by teaming up, then why not? You certainly admire each other&amp;#039;s unflagging determination and crafty tactics\u2014and you apply your business savvy to courtship, much like a game of chess. Name-dropping is akin to sexual banter for your sign, and &amp;quot;getting into the VIP section&amp;quot; sounds like a kinky metaphor. In a way, it is. You&amp;#039;re titillated by power and yearn to be part of the elite. Sure, it may sound cold and calculating, but by nature you&amp;#039;re a goal-oriented sign who lives by a long-term plan. Thus, your mate must fit neatly into the picture. You&amp;#039;re a pair of workaholics with a closet kinky streak, and if you can leave the office before midnight, you&amp;#039;ll enjoy a lusty connection behind closed doors. At the same time, you cleave strongly to time-honored tradition and remain loyal to your childhood friends for life. Parental approval and proper stock is a must. No matter how much you love someone, if he/she doesn&amp;#039;t fit into the family dynasty, it&amp;#039;s a deal breaker. CAPRICORN + AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18) This is the match of the traditionalist and the rebel, the rule-maker and the rule-breaker. Capricorn is the guardian of history, and Aquarius is an innovator who has little regard for the past. If you can meet somewhere in the present, it&amp;#039;s sure to be interesting. Disciplined Capricorn can teach Aquarius the value of structure, and Aquarius can help Cap think outside the box. You&amp;#039;re both competitive and controlling in your own ways, and few signs can rival your work shared work ethic. The wheeler-dealer light never switches off in either of you\u2014you&amp;#039;ll hand out business cards at a funeral. Still, you might be better off as professional partners, since your bedside manner is so different. Lusty Capricorn may be aloof in public, but this sensual Earth sign is a bona fide freak in the sheets. Although Aquarius may love to shock people in public, behind closed doors your interest in sex can be tepid at best. (As the ruler of electricity, gadgets may be preferable.) Socially, Capricorn can be cold or snobbish, choosing friends based on status. Popular Aquarius befriends everyone\u2014don&amp;#039;t be surprised if the Chinese food delivery guy ends up at the dinner table sharing your Hunan chicken. Still, Capricorn can be an important grounding force for Air-sign Aquarius, preventing you from floating off into the ether. Life is never dull with an unpredictable Aquarian. CAPRICORN + PISCES (February 19 - March 20) On the surface, you might seem like an odd match\u2014imagine a Harvard MBA in Armani dating a paint-splattered artist in Oshkosh. Yet, your signs pair well, even if you don&amp;#039;t want to admit it. With classic good looks and a dutiful nature, Capricorn fits neatly into the system. Pisces is a flowy Fish who excels at playing the the artsy rebel, the indie darling, the adorable mess. By comparison, Capricorn seems structured and regimented\u2014but appearances deceive. While Pisces may delight in coloring outside the neat lines Capricorn draws, the real surprise is that Capricorn is the bigger freak behind closed doors. Capricorn has a dominant, even cruel streak that can play out in the bedroom (not that submissive Pisces doth protest). Leather, whips and kinky fun\u2014it&amp;#039;s all fair game. You both love to find lesser-known wine, music, and art, a pride yourself on having cultivated tastes. Together, you can traverse the tony uptown spaces to the lowbrow dives, discovering cultural jewels wherever you go. Your diverse strengths could make you great business partners, too. Open a gallery, with Pisces as curator and Capricorn as financial backer. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
