It’s 5 AM, and while the others are reaching for their alarm clock, someone’s already completed a killer workout, replied to 50 mails, and even written a 5-year plan for conquering the world – even before he takes his first cup of coffee. What a typical Capricorn looks like! These signs represent the hardworking zodiac people who like to play the game for the long haul and were born from 22nd December to 19th January. You see, Capricorn being an earth sign explains their down to earth personality and the desire to see results. They are also cardinal, which means they are not just followers but takers of actions and order givers. Saturn, the most rigid task-master of the zodiac, is their planet. That is why they are all about orderliness and accountability!
Capricorn is an ambitious sign; they do not simply set targets, but go further to carve them on stone tablets which they carry up reliable mountains figuratively speaking. Doesn’t matter if you doodled a blueprint of your life when you were in kindergarten, these are the friends who are likely to stick to that map for life.
Their determination should never be confused with lack of fun. Behind the seemingly calm airs are the sharpest dry humours that does not have places for whiners, the day before filing taxes. These are the ones who will leave a well-placed deadpan joke that will cause them to reverse.
When it comes to tackling any problem, Capricorn people are like a swish Swiss army knife – absolute perfection. Their willingness to work even evolves ant workers. While the rest of us are busy buried under endless paperwork, Caps are actively building the whole castle from the sand.
Even the psychoanalyst who studied human behavior, Sigmund Freud, could not comprehend the impulse control possessed by these earth signs. They had a bigger plan than the rest of us where while others are playing checkers, they play chess instead thinking ten moves into the future. It is no cost to them to endure short-term pain for long-term gain.
With their critical reasoning skills, these zodiac signs are also the bedrock of any association. Is there anybody willing to remember all those work anniversaries so that you don’t have to buy any unnecessary gifts, organize an office exchange, and still make an important report? Sure, what’s her name, Robert. They are more punctual than German trains (pre COVID of course).
Now that we have Gospel M, let’s illustrate more about one of the Capricorn deficiceny – its ambition phase. Their urge to perform often makes them forget that life is not only made up of spreadsheets and KPIs. They are the people who forget that it is not always ‘work’ and ‘chill’ – there is a space in between the two where productivity can happen.
That serious demeanor? People don’t always appreciate it because it sometimes behaves too cold or too unapproachable. RBF has their achievements headlined with a Resting Boss Face that is well practiced. When it comes to their professionalism, overcoming that barrier is practically like trying to break into their diary that is password protected.
And let us not even get started on the workaholic elephant in the room. The scenery at the top is all that is forgotten by Capricorns who are too engrossed in seeking to be higher up the success chain. They are allergic to the phrase “work-life balance”. It is only about work and work with some more work.
Scheduled fun: Self-impose deadlines for categories of fun that can be equally productive. Relegate leisure to the same level as you do ‘business meetings’ because its business.
Emotion exploration: Remember that the only thing between the audience and the widest point of your ideas is a PowerPoint presentation. Plan the development – an emotion map, for example, very simple
Failure appreciation: Try sucking at something, at least for that prolonged period of time. For your ego, it’s like cross training.
Spontaneity training: do something once a month which is not premeditated. Improvise, but don’t deviate from the story for your life
Al Capone, Michel Obama, Timothée Chalamet, Lebron James, Kate Middleton, Jared Leto, Elvis Presley.
And here’s the proof – Capricorn in full scale, all the ambition and structure we’ve come to expect from them. If you have a Cap in your life, I hope you enjoy counting on them all the time (and perhaps remind them, kindly of course, that the sun will rise again tomorrow even if they don’t go to work). And if you are a Capricorn, then yes, keep climbing those mountains and building those empires of yours. But also remember, that a beautiful panorama can be appreciated not only from the top but even from a glimpse at a base camp. Now, head to battle – although you may want to include a commando nap in that rather elaborate neural itinerary of yours!
Capricorn, there is a CEO among the zodiac signs and you are the one in charge with a heart that can be described as a cross between a Swiss bank’s vault establishment and the top floor of a skyscraper. Your style of falling in love is realistic, goal-oriented, and about as exciting as a tax inspection. If you are in love, it is not love by itself – no, it’s an acquisition, it’s a strategic partnership, and a “Let’s conquer the world moot” kind of love. You are mean in turning oneself into a powerful couple so much so that you work climbing the ladder of the relationship hierarchy and making every relationship once again into an effective machine that delivers profitability. Netflix and chill? More like “presentations and plans”!
Loyalty that outruns a mountain goat while hustling along the edge barely hanging on a cliff
Ambition deserving to give Jeff Bezos an inferiority complex
Dependability the role of atomic clocks is played by
An ability to wait that is longer than the length of the Ice Age
Skillful in transforming a two – sum relationship into a corporate giant
Sheer workaholism directed at what would seem the most game workaholics would ever attempt
Emotional Coldness tighter than a balanced budget
Pessimism worse than what even Eeyore would tell an idiot who is trying to cheer him up
Being business-oriented in people’s relationships
Quantity of laugh and joy has left the ballroom and the dancing pulls even the most random creatures out from home
Taurus: You would together establish the kind of stability that would allow your empire to sit out even an apocalypse.
Virgo: Basing on your common interests, the world must – be tolerating – from you. Or perhaps just the way your overly neat room is arranged.
Scorpio: You are the tacticians and they are the warriors, a hot proposition for a heavyweight contest, almost ‘wet T-collection’ style.
Pisces: They make a lot of plans, you prepare for their downfall. It is a great combination of the skill to daydream and the skill to respect the boundaries of what can be reasonably anticipated.
Oh Capricorn, in bed, you are like a fine wine that pleases you more as time goes on, and overly comfortable surroundings are the only time the wine should be savored. When it comes to intimacy, you take it slow and often with elements of exquisiteness. You want it all; it isn’t a numbers game but rather performing lovemaking and engaging in well-orchestrated artistry. Assume a high thread count of bed sheets and curtains together with a playlist that has been thoroughly thought out, and maybe even a review performance post lovemaking (I’m kidding… mostly). Perhaps, you are not the most impulsive lover, and you make up for this by knowing how and what to finish for a satisfying experience. Just please, do not overbook for your dates!
Let’s not beat around the bush, if it is down to you, Capricorn, I expect you to treat the breaking off of relations with the efficiency of a clerk helply reconciling their evidence with any accounting needs. There are stages of heartbreak that usually follow yours:
Denial (But we were 10 years into our grand plan!)
Practical assessment (It’s time to cut the cake)
Zombie mode (adiet with almost no sociable elements and work driven satisfaction without childish beliefs of love.)
Moving on one careful step at a time (I’ll do the severe research first.)
Pro tip: I guess, you could allow yourself the small indulgences of feeling rather awful from time to time. Your heart does not need to be treated as an additional task that has to be accomplished.
If you wish to turn a Capricorn into your practical head over tin toes what do you do? It Is more than likely to start picking life aspirations and fast track your career development, as this sign needs a power couple relationship! First of all, assure them there is burning ambition and a reasonable strategy that will guarantee progress in the long run.
Prove yourself to be dependable, diligent and as well organized as a CEO’s clothes. Talk to them about career objectives, where to invest, and how you see yourself in 5 years (10 years gets extra points). If you want to keep your Capricorn hooked, devote yourself to them in both intimate and working relationships. Encourage their goal-setting, understand their effort at work that can verge on obsessive, and aim higher. And do keep a tad bit of a spark in the relationship with elegant evenings out and presents that have sense and don’t lose their use in over time. But take caution! Do not be flaky, do not be unambitious and do not be broke – that is like telling them what nails on a chalkboard sound like. Don’t encourage people to be dramatic or to wear their feelings on their sleeves too much, and while they are at it don’t ever disrespect their seriousness or love for work. It’s prudent to understand that growing to love a Capricorn is similar to high-altitude mountain climbing – a feat that necessitates immense effort and one that can only be surpassed by enjoying the views on the peak
You, dear Capricorn, are fortunate to find love which can be compared to a delicious investment bank, with a business plan that is accurate and the returns attractive in the long run. Yes, please respect what is an ambitious and responsible side but, how about that you schedule in the last fun (sorry but, it increases your productivity!). You can create a love story that can be an inspiration for Harvard Business School case studies, and of course, it will be with some glamour!
Alright, Capricorn. How about a mai tai in a davos with that eager mountain climber within you? How do you view money? Like a seasoned mountaineer on Everest?

In Nigel, you are the bureaucrat: a forceful findings machine; efficient, dependable and always shoulder the responsibility for more than is due. Your colleagues see you as the office boulder, forgone and trustworthy like a mountain. It was you who filed progress reports ahead of schedule, worked on weekend to meet deadlines, and was hypocritically angry at those whose work ethics were just plain non existent.
Insider Suggestion: As passionate and committed as you are, keep in mind, not everyone wants to become a CEO by age 30. Appreciate other types of professional attributes, and do not expect this or that room recreation denotes loafing.
Be ready to veer off course when needed: Shifting gears now and again will not shatter your 5-year plan.
Put yourself first: Self-help is as important as putting money in your diluted stock.
Build relations for profits: It is as important to develop relationships as it is to consider how to grow your pocket money.
All activity and no rest is neither healthy nor fun. It would be nice if everything could be easily combined; one has to work in order to play (to a dull child both work as well as play are uninteresting).
Achieve visible goals: Take a breather, you have done enough work for the accomplishment of a reward and relish the vantage point on the seams so to speak of the summits that you achieve.
Capricorn, you are the richest among all of the zodiac signs. Your steadfastness and determination can really transform all the financial hills into real mountains. You know how to appreciate the importance of financial and business security. You understand that practical investments made by others see as unworthy in snatching profits but rather in securing their surplus for development; you: are usually right. Coz you are a born leader who’s great with money and even considers strategising in her non-business hours – you’ll flourish in any business environment. Please also note that success should not only be in terms of currency; it should also earn richness in terms of constructive experiences and interpersonal interactions.
If you focus ambition as well as time off and bonding, it is possible to establish a financial legacy that is not just admirable, rather a legacy that is rewarding as well.
Workaholic Woes or Ambitious Achiever? Well, as for Capricorns, it is safe to say that your ambition could power an entire cafeteria and that work ethic? One would be even ashamed to admit that bees are furious workers compared to one. Oh come on, you know well how sometimes your thirst for success sways your health almost to the thread thin that your tolerance to the slackers around you.
Health tip: Embracing “productivity-health fusion” is essential. Health goals must be pursued with the same zeal as you apply in pursuit of your career objectives. Fill out a spreadsheet, if you have to (we know you want to). That is kinda like you are running a Fortune 500 company with your body – sans all the back stabbing.
Skeletal Shenanigans: Your Framework Needs Fine-tuning You are governed by Saturn and as such, you skull and joints need more pampering. Spare yourself from boring calcium pills- why not simply do some weight baring reservation? Deadlifts anyone? Picture a scenario in which you are constructing a building and the building happens to be you, an edifice.
Stubbornly stretching that ambitious mind of yours, walk up to the other side where structural integration lies. This hands- on approach could have your body back in shape long before you are able to make shape up your profit. Except that this time, you are doing that not to the company but instead the company’s skeleton.
Marathon style training may very well be the training plan for you. It is a perfect combination of patience coupled with oh so much penalty – I mean persistence – which you love. It is sort of the same as making that final buzzer beater shot all the grosser.
On some days, when running a business seems less strenuous than running a mile, go for rock climbing. It is a resource management efficiency in motion. Your hands are never reaching lower or (if only) remaining at the current position. Though in wrestling, safety ropes are accepted unlike in business.
Realistically, your common sensical nature presents you as a possible meal-prep queen. But let’s put it one notch higher, shall we? What about a «quarterly nutrition plan»? Change your nutrition as per seasons like how you would plan to do business. It is meal planning with the skill and organization of the last minute CEO.
Expert tip: Buy a good blender. The heart of any kitchen is that appliance. Every so often you may enjoy power lunch smoothies. Who says get healthy, but don’t drink your meals?
CrossFit could be your destiny. There is order, there is chaos, and there is a score at the end, music to your ears right? It’s like changing the battleground into a conference room with all the handshakes coming along drenched in sweat.

Head over to Courtroom with a picture of a suited-sleuth holding his sword in one hand and brandishing a ream of scripts. Your explanation is the best weapon here. When was the last time you were able to think outside the box if you ever could?
Here’s a tip which is to do with mental: Partition a ‘ portfolio of self-improvement’. Change your mental portfolio in exactly the same manner as if you were too financial one. A little bit of this, a little bit of that – quite like a mutual fund, but in thin grey matter.
Health is a wheel and has various spokes, bent at progressing from waiting for the next quarterly report to progress through the health ministry. It’s about the construction of wellness empire which will last even longer than the longest board meeting of the company.
As aforesaid, Cap, this is one business you will never want to quit. The moment they can, treat it like you would your most important client. Go and win, but again, do not forget that even NASDAQ closes at some point of time.
Learn to manage yourself the same way you manage your company.

‘Joining Capricorn is like joining the most elite club one where ambition combines with sarcasm. The first’xers do not simply come in, fold in the quiet coffe break; these achievers come in with a drive and a rude and a beautiful depth to the outer shell and going into people in the center of the wheel.

Maintaining space between friendship and career with a Capricorn is akin to nurturing a beautifully constructed bicycle made from bamboo poles. It takes time. Lots of time. And only dedication is rewarded your friendship cultivation instructions;
Do not interfere with their work-life balance (they have a work-life balance – slowly but surely, they are conquering that mountain)
They expect that you would be understanding of the situation and not rush their trust which is extremely rare and very hard to earn.
Value their quiet caresses – overly dramatic expressions of love are not their thing but still, small unsuspected gestures speak their heart out.
Allow them to set some targets – this is not for feigning rather they are extremely passionate of watching their pals rise and achieve their goals.
For Capricorns, Tauruses and Virgos are compatible matches. But their steady nature can stabilize almost all signs who are ready to work out. They have the same level of ambition as Scorpios, while Pisces can assist them to release their buried feelings.
Having Capricorn as a friend is like having a life coach for your aspirations and goals – it is difficult, it is inspiring, and there is an assurance of growth. It is calming, it is unexpectedly enjoyable as long as you are able to break their walls, and it is probably the safest friendship there is.
