Are Capricorns and Libras really compatible?

This topic was created in the Capricorn forum by Ebony_Libra on Sunday, April 26, 2009 and has 21 replies.
Hi, I'm new and I have question about compatibility between a Capricorn and Libra. For the past couple of months I've been interested in my Capricorn friend and we talk regularly. Were both interested in each other, but he wants to takes things slow. Whenever we talk it's always fun and I notice from what he tells me is that I make him feel better about himself. He's been working hard on trying to live a healthy life style and he lost over a 100 pounds, so he was pretty overweight. My friend recently told me that he's been trying to become buff (lol)and I guess with me being this good support system for him, he told me that he's trying to make me proud. he asked me if I was proud and I say yeah, lol. I was surprised when he told me that because I didn't think he felt that way. This is my first time dealing with a Capricorn. My ex was a Leo and let's say that relationship went to hell in a hand basket. I'm very curious about Capricorn males because to be honest, whenever I talk to him I'm extremely happy. He's calm and reserved and his voice is so attractive. I just want to get closer to him because I feel he's such a catch. So my question is, are Capricorns and Libras really compatible? I'm a Libra and my ascendant and moon are in Pisces. My friend of course is a Capricorn and his ascendant is Libra and his moon is in Pisces too.

not compatible theoretically but I do know a married cap girl/libra boy couple. Weould not be first on my list of starsigns to date.


Why wouldn't they be first on your list to date? I'm curious smile

Ive not had great experiences when Ive dated libras. I get on very well with them on a superficial level as acquaintances or partying buddies. But I don't find them very mentally loyal as lovers (they can be quite open if they find someone walking past or friends attractive) and there is a likelihood of petty bickering about silly things, in particular I've noticed even in my cap friend's marriage that there is friction about finances. They also don't always realise that some of the things they say can be very hurtful. I think out of all air signs librans can be most verbally hurtful. Arrows shoot out of their mouths sometimes when they are feeling aggrieved about some slight. This is particularly difficult when they can be so sweet and charming at other times. It comes as a real shock because they don't show that side most of the time. A prickly relationship. But great when you don't get too close. But cappies like to get up close and personal in relationships.


I'm really sorry that you've dealt with those type of situations. I've come across other Libra men and sadly, some are quite jerks and very superficial. I don't know if it's because of my ascendant (Pisces) but, I'm pretty sensitive. I always try to be careful in how I treat people and what I say. It all goes back to that saying, "Treat people the way you want to be treated." I hope you don't distance yourself from all Libras lol. I want to thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I've found it to be helpful. It gives me an idea on how both male and female Capricorns feel. smile

Youre welcome and I don't distance myself from libras at all. I have mars in libra so I guess that makes me a little bit like them too. I get on pretty well with them 99% of the time. Can talk to them all night, because they love to chat and so do caps. But I will give you an example of what I mean about cap/libra relations...
I was at my cap/libra friends' house looking at a photo and asked if that was my cap friend. My cap friend's libra hubby said yes that was her when she was young and beautiful. Now my cap friend is a few years older than her hubby and she's only a couple of years ago had a baby. That's the sort of thing I guess I mean. He's a really nice guy and we all get on great but it's not the first time he's made comments like that, seemingly harmless but quite hurtful when you think about it. Yet he's a really nice guy, very intelligent, very entertaining.
I'm not sure other signs would even pick up on it, but cappies tend to dwell on what is said by their loved ones and read into it. But the guy is just saying what he thinks. That's what hurts I guess. I don't know about other cappies but I prefer if someone dresses up the truth a bit.



It's like he was saying that she WAS young and beautiful but now, no. I don't know, to me that was quite rude. It's one thing to be opinionated about things, but I think people need to be mindful of what comes out of their mouth. I definitely agree with you on the communication factor. I LOVE talking to my cap friend. The first time we've talked, it was for almost 8 hours. I've never talked to someone for that long.
And Sagigoat, I also agree that Capricorns are sensitive. Whenever I talk to my friend, he just comes off as being really sensitive and soft spoken and to be honest, that's what I like about him. He's in touch with his feelings. We haven't argued and I told him point blank, I don't like conflicts and he felt the same way lol, so were good on that point. I guess that's why he told me that he thought I was easygoing. But what I notice from him is that he can be cautious at times. So, I'm trying to be patient in regards to that.

Capricorn man & Libra female?
Hmmm, I think the Libra will probably have to give in more for this RS to work. Caps can be a little undemonstrative in romance while the Libra can be a bit too demonstrative, esp in public.
The Pisces in you might be the one that connects to this Capricorn though. One thing I love about Libras (both the men & women) is how devoted they are to their families, esp to their children.
Long term wise, you might find that the Cap's self-discipline might be a bit too stifling for the light-hearted & romantic Libra.

I don't think they are compatible at ALL. I had a BOSS who was by far the WORST individual I have known. He was a pathological liar and always had a HUGE ego that needed to be fed.

Ebony_libra, you do sound gentle and sensitive. you know, it's not that my libra ex is insensitve or loves conflicts on purpose he just have this innate detachment/coldness/insecurity that would really shine when he feels threaten emotionally. while we were in the process of breaking up, both of us did a lot of analysis of ourselves and each other. based on what he realized about himself and what i observed over the years, it was evident that he only became uncooperative/difficult/bickering when he felt threaten (often time subconsciously) by my quick-to-the-point logic or when he felt jealous when we were out with any of my male friends / coworkers (doesn't matter whether there are other females there). i would say the latter really embarrassed me in pubic (and u know how capricorns hate to feel humiliated in public) to a point that i felt burdened and stressed coz i needed to constantly attend to him when we were out, stroke his back like every few mins etc. to keep his unfriendly expressions under control. and fwiw, i do not flirt in person especially when my SO is present i'm very aware of being respectful so i never had similar problem with another and it took me forever to realize that it was because he felt threaten with no regard of how i behaved.
i admire my libra ex very much. he is by far the most capable man at his age i have become closed to. he is popular among women. infact he has 3 admiers right now as we speak lol. he is successful and very well rounded with many hobbies he is an expert in every one of his hobbies better than some ppl who do that as their professions. that made it very hard for me and him both to understand / realize that he somehow felt threaten by my capricorn logic sometimes that made him become uncooperative. i have to say that my libra ex was and still is very protective and loving towards me. he is always there for me when i needed him and vice versa. we trust each other very much even during our frictions lol. it's just that there is something in the core in our charts that it's the best we are friends / family instead of SOs so he doesn't feel threaten which in turns hurts and tires me out emotionally.


Wow, I think that is very mature that you both could analyze yourselves and eachother, and communicate what went down in the relationship. Also, to come out of the relationship and still admire your ex is
details
Oops, it cut off. What I continued to say was, to come out of the relationship and still admire your ex is even better. I've witnessed the demise of my parents' marriage and I've seen the end of some of friend's relationships too. Let me just say that things didn't end well at all. My parents' despise each other, and personally my mom could do without EVER seeing my dad. So yeah, that's pretty sad. Oh, I am gentle and sensitive sagigoat...to the point where I get flack for it. I guess one of my many lessons here on Earth is to develop a thicker skin..

Wow. The Libra men definitely aren't popular on this thread.

Libra girls (and boys) can be quite cutting in their remarks. When reading your topic post your frequent "lol"s pissed me off. You have the capacity to laugh at this man who is making serious changes in his life. It may sound lighthearted or ridiculous to you, but we are very serious people when it comes to goals and achievement. Therein lies the rub. I have have two very very close libra friends who I feel I can never depend on. You tend to be flaky, vain and seem to make jokes out of things that aren't funny at all. But somehow they have managed to stay on the top of my contact list for 10+ years. Why? Opposites attract, I guess. BUT We both love material possessions and money so I tend to go shopping with my libra friends a lot (now that I think of it, I think at least half of the time we spend together we are shopping). Also, caps do like a good debate every now and again, so arguing with a libra can be a nice release. I know of two libra/cap couples and they are both an absolute mess. One male libra/ female cap. The cap is trying to make things work but the libra has these ridiculously high standards which diminishes the caps self esteem. The female libra/ male cap: the libra constantly flirts with other men in front of his face to try to get him to pay more attention to her, they argue constantly to the point of fisticuffs, and both of them are too stubborn to leave the other one because they are financially obligated to each other so the thought of having less money to spend on frivolous things frightens the shit out of them. In a nutshell, good luck with that.

To Warholian, I'm sorry my frequent lol's pissed u off. Even though I do appreciate the feedback you've given, I don't think you should group all Libras together as if all Libras are flaky, vain, etc. I don't laugh at anyone who are working extremely hard to make changes in their lives. As for friendships, I value them tremendously as well as my family. Again, thanks for your feedback.

Hey, you know. I get along pretty well with libras. I get along better with libras then I do Aries haha. Well, at least offline I seem to. A very good friend of mine (I really need to call her) is a libra (1st decan) and a co-worker of mine is a libra (3rd decan). He is so awesome a dependable.
I don't know, I'm a capricorn that gets along with libras. Theres only been two libras I can think of that I didn't like and thats because they were the devil's spawn LOL!
A boss of mine was a libra and I adored him so much.
details
Thanks for your advice ume. I do agree he's serious, but he also has a great sense of humor. He has a tattoo on his wrist of his former weight. He told me that it was a reminder of of hard he worked to lose the weight. He's a very determined person, and that's one of the qualities I admire about him. He's also trying to complete his teaching degree so he could become a high school math teacher, then a college math professor. I've met plenty of people that were fickle, inconsiderate,and inconsistent but he is by far stable,kind-hearted,and upstanding. He gets uncomfortable when I constantly compliment him and let him know that he's valued, but he needs to be reminded of it. He has been hurt in the past. I've told him that if he needs someone to talk to I'm there. There are times where I'll call him to know how he's doing and he'll do the same. So whenever he calls, whatever I'm doing at the moment is put on pause because I don't want to miss his call. That may sound crazy to others, but I do care about him a lot.

Im married but b4 i did this i was sorta on n off with this capricorn guy who by the way im hoplessly n love with. he is so handsome n sweet n i really beleive that he is perfect 4 me but of course he is so funny actin. i dont think he does it on purpose its just the way its been said cap guys act towards libras. i want to say i can tell he likes me but i cant cause it seems like hes so into me when im around but when im not he ignores me. i wouldnt have gotten married if this dude would have said lets do this i would have gotten out of my long term relationship to be with him but he had his own situation at the time wit his childs mother. so now im married but n love with him n he is single we hang out every blue moon but he doesnt feel comptable with sex anymore. which really sucks 4 me cause he was the best i ever had. i know it might seem like im trippin cause i am in fact taken (sorta)i just wish things could b different cause we could have been perfect 4 each other!!!!

Cappysweetie you have an Aquarius moon right maybe that's why!



hahaha, Yeah, I seem to attract air men ... the problem is that they don't know what to do with me. So therefore we stay friends lol.

one thing aqua mooners do not take well FOR SURE is to be strong-armed to take a life path. both my libra ex and I were the living proofs LOL.


LOL!!!! I totally agree with this. I can't be forced somewhere I don't want to go. Theres no way I can go done a path that I'm uncomfortable with.

Hi all Big Grin
This is the first time ive posted on this cap forum but ive been reading on it for months.
I am a libra lady, moon in aquarius, ascendant in leo and my man is capricorn, moon in cancer, ascendant in pisces.
We have been dating for a year and a half now and I have to say I am sooooo in love with him, he is perfect. He does not wear his heart on his sleeve, has walls that a nuclear bomb would not even bust, honest to the point you DONT want to hear it, moody, meloncholy, depressed alot blah blahh....but in saying all of this, I trust him, and to me that is the most important thing. He would never say slushy stuff unless he meant it and he shows his love when we make love which is erm...WOOOOWWWW to the point of I didn't know it could be that amazing. I know what is beneath his walls without him saying anything and I know what he needs. He is extremely sensitive, passionate, loyal and honest..on the INSIDE. On the outside, he portrays the *im a man and men don't do mushy or declarations of commitment and love*...but his actions have proved his commitment and love more than any words could. We have had ups and downs and recently had a huge fight, which did end up in fisty cuffs, which was actually positive because it blew his walls for a bit and his passions were out in the open and he blurted out rather angrily *well! all this drama has at least made me realise I am in love with you and can't leave you*....and I KNOW he meant it. I'm sure now he will be pretty much beating himself for exposing that truth, and will probably be a bit stand offish with me now, but I am strong and confident and know how to deal with him, I dont make emotional demands from him and show him lots of love and affection which he LOVES, and he loves it and NEEDS it and is more forecoming if I dont display my affection with a need of he has to recipricate it....he recipricates it in a different way to me...we understand our different ways of expression :o).
Yes, cappy and libra and definitely compatible, if you are both mature and secure in yourselves (or at least the libra in my case lol), and understand each others needs and differences in expression.
details
and also, we are both afraid of commitment, want to take things realllyyyyyyy slow...my reasons are I was married to a scorpio for 16 years which was incredibly stiffling and destructive and so I am naturally taking things slow, I have felt panic when he has stayed with me for more than 3 days lol...and this obviously suits him too because he is veryyyy slow, so we are both on the same page as in taking things slow and enjoying the journey...its not just about the destination. We have discussed commitment and marriage and are both romantic and both want the fairytale, but we both know now is not the right time and its like an unspoken thing of take each day as it comes.
details
I had this thing with a libra guy...and it was great. The only problem was that I yearn for intense moments with my loved one, a pur intense moment where you can read their minds...its like mending of both souls. You can feel their love for u in their breathing, their touch,and then wheny you kiss it all explodes in your heart, and no I'm not talking about sex.
Idk how to explain it, but yeah, he didn't get were I was coming from with that. Once I tried to have an intense moment with him, not light little kisses but a deep kiss were I gave it all my soul, and then he asked me 'ru okay?' l0l I was like, he dsnt get it...
So yeah, I always felt something was missing. That connection beyond the physical. That binds you together and you know, he's the one.
But I say if you two are working out, that's awesome hun! smile
