Capricorn in Love
As almost everything else on my astrology page, this is taken from THE ONLY ASTROLOGY BOOK YOU'LL EVER NEED. This particular section is from the section entitled "Sun Signs in Love."
Though she may not show it, this woman cares a great deal about love. Some women are content to leave love to fate, but the Capricorn woman takes a hand in determining her own fate. She is discriminating in her choice of men, the least likely of all the zodiacal signs to fall in love at first sight. She has no time to waste on silly flirtation; love is a serious matter to her. If a man doesn't measure up, she wants him out of her way. If a man does interest her, she will observe him from an emotional distance before moving closer. She takes the time to get to know him and considers carefully the consequences of her involvement. Like all earth signs, she has a deep-rooted sensuality that flowers only when she feels safe and secure.
To Capricorn woman, happiness in love is crucial. She wants someone who will cherish and understand her, who will not rob her of her self-sufficiency or ask her to relinquish control of her life and goals. But she is a realist and knows how hard he is to find.
She will not put her neck into any man's yoke. A Capricorn woman may appear shy or submissive, but she is like a rubber ball: You can push a dent into it, but the ball always springs back to its original shape. She is self-disciplined; she has a clear mind, a commonsense approach. She is a most womanly woman, a lady with "class." Typical examples of Capricorn females are Marlene Dietrich, Maggie Smith, Ava Gardner, Faye Dunaway, Mary Tyler Moore--all intensely feminine, yet with a reserve of inner strength (To quote MATCHMAKER: "Oh yes, I am so very Mary Tyler Moore--everyone says so." sorry...couldn't resist)
Capricorn women are not particularly lucky in love. Perhaps they demand too much, perhaps they're too involved with a career to inspire the kind of love and devotion they want, or perhaps the men they choose tend to be too inexperienced or naive. Whatever the reason, it's too bad because Capricorn women, in addition to their sexuality, have many practical virtues. They are loyal, dependable, excellent at handling money, canny about people. They are very helpful to a mate and will stand by him when the going is toughest. All a Capricorn woman asks in return is to share in the spoils when the battle is won.
Her passions run deep, and so does her impact. Long after transitory affairs have run their courses, this smoldering siren will hold her place in a man's affections. Cherish her, honor her, love her, respect her. She'll pay you back in the richest coin of the realm--the kind of loving relationship that lasts.
