I'm a Capricorn ♑ and I married one. We're way too alike sometimes that it causes fights.
• Practical and prudent - yep
• Ambitious and disciplined - yep
• Patient and careful - I'm not patient at all but I am a bit careful at times.
• Humorous and reserved - yep
• Pessimistic and fatalistic - nope
• Miserly and grudging - sometimes
Capricorn Likes: hot (yep), simple food (sometimes), antiques (meh), history (sure, why not), duties (yea?) and responsibilities (yep), not being pressured by others (yep), having plenty of unconditional love (yep), lots of personal privacy (oh hell yes), new books (comics?), and expensive gemstones (I used to collect amethysts and other gems when I was younger).
Capricorn Dislikes: untidiness and disorder of all kinds (yep unless it's my mess and then it becomes a controlled chaos), being teased (yep), surprises (yep), new ideas (not really), loneliness (yep), being made to feel useless or incompetent (yep), and being embarrassed in public (yep).
A typical Capricorn has good organizational skills, is neat and tidy, have hardheaded practicality. You have strong work ethic, materialistic tendencies, a conservative streak, conventionality and great respect for authority. You are ambitious, serious and dedicated to duty. You are self-disciplined, responsible and practical but at times, you can wallow in self-pity. Your reasoning ability is excellent and has strong sense of purpose and direction.
A Capricorn may appear somber and reserved in their dealings with others, but once they give the trust, they are a loyal and steadfast friend. Socially oriented, you are willing to work hard for anything you want, and your self-esteem is extremely important to you. You are bright and quick. You are good in detail as well as in insight and conceptual formulation. You are materialistic rather than philosophical. You are capable of falling in love for its own pleasure but love alone will not motivate you to marriage. To you marriage serves a social design.
