Ruling planet: Saturn

Element: Earth

Symbol: The Goat

Capricorns are often considered quiet, but persistent. However, like a mountain goat climbing higher and higher, their stubbornness will often see them get to the top. A Capricorn will not rush into love or a relationship, but would rather step cautiously, evaluating each new step in the romance, and only moving ahead when they feel comfortable and confident that it is the right thing to do.

Saturn is the planet that represents responsibility and structure, and this means that a Capricorn will often be an excellent organizer, and practical in all aspects of their life including love. They have a very strong work ethic, and will often achieve their goals in all areas, whether it be authority in their careers, wealth, or even in relationships. In any relationship, be it love-romance, or friendship, a Capricorn can be relied upon to be a sturdy and reliable companion.

Because a Capricorn is so cautions in the relationships, they are unlikely to be drawn towards the wrong type of relationship. They are usually most comfortable around other diligent folk who work hard and move steadily towards their desires. They simply do not relate well to people who spend their life “living in the moment” or “just having fun”. Capricorns are pragmatic people, and although they understand the joys of trying new things and having fun, they know that having a solid direction in life will provide them with most pleasure and satisfaction in the long run. They want their partner to be steady, loyal, and trustworthy, and you seek a relationship that will stand the test of time, rather than a transient fling.

A Capricorn will usually find themselves most suited to their opposing sign: Cancer. A Cancer will usually have similar goals regarding relationships and family, and this makes them an excellent match. You will also find compatibility with other signs that have Earth as an element: Taurus and Virgo, both of which are practical sign, which suits your ideals regarding partners.
