leo man and capricorn woman

Leo Man - Capricorn Woman

The Leo man is sure that he is the most practical person he knows. He looks in the mirror and sees a manly hero reflected there - strong and cold-blooded.

Then he falls in love with the Capricorn girl and suddenly feels that he looks terrible, moves abruptly and clumsily, maybe even a little funny. For Leo, this is a most unpleasant discovery.

Naturally, he does not show how uncomfortable he feels in her presence.

Should he worry?

He continues smirking and bluffing, pretending to be calm and trying to master the situation, pretending to be cold and disinterested. The discomfort begins when he feels a strange "edifying quality" in her. Or does it only seem that way to him?

Something cozy and reliable in him makes her trusting, and she begins to openly express her views and beliefs. Her decision to be frank with him must deeply touch him, because it is a "guarantee card" of a timid girl, promising that later she will trust him with her heart. Does it touch him?

Probably no.

He is too busy thinking about the demands of his male "ego".

He listens to her kindly, slightly interested and patient, taking the opportunity to study her and think over his strategy of seduction, idly calculating how soon she will agree to relax in his arms, and then...

But wait a minute: she suddenly stops talking to see if he is listening to her.

Then, to prove to her that he has not missed a word, he will gently, hesitantly scold her for some of her statements, confidently pointing out her mistakes.

Heated up, he will tell her how she should wear her hair and what sweater, in his opinion, would suit her better than the one she is wearing.

Since she is so calm and does not interrupt him, he will become inspired and tell her how she could change her thinking, her appearance, and even improve her health if she lets him run her life from now on.

Is something wrong? She is too calm. He thought she had such sweet eyes, soft and clear, with a subtle humor shining in them...

But why did they suddenly remind him of two steel bullets or a pair of shiny marbles?

Her piercing gaze is as cold as her voice when she says: "It's late. I have to get up early. See you next week, maybe."

Perhaps now these feelings of awkwardness and stupidity have arisen in him.

He feels rejected and humiliated.

The fact is that her reactions are under the control and guidance of Saturnian instincts.

She has an extremely developed sense of self-preservation and enough common sense to run away before love is seriously hurt or killed.

There is more love in her taking time to think than he realizes.

If he stopped thinking only about himself and thought about her, he would receive her silent message: "Let's think a little apart, because I don't want to fall out of love with you, but that might happen if you keep pushing me like that. I'm almost afraid to trust you again.

Please understand what you're doing.

I don't want to go back to the lonely life I lived before I met you.

Maybe a week away from me will make you realize what you did, how you hurt me."

If he could have looked in her window after he left that evening, he would have seen that her eyes were no longer cold with stern determination, but kind, and in them were shining unshed tears.

She tries hard not to cry, this girl, so as not to betray her innermost feelings, and she usually succeeds.

But not always.

If he could have looked at her that evening, he would have seen her cry for a few brief minutes. The only way Leo will ever truly understand this calm creature, who seems always cold and collected, is to look at her when she thinks she is alone and no one can see how bad she is.

Even when she was very little, she kept all the nameless fears of childhood deep inside, demonstrating to the adults the image that Saturn persistently whispered to her.

They always said: "What a wonderful child!" - and nodded approvingly.

Saturn teaches all Goats from childhood how to behave in public, and they never forget the lesson. The Capricorn woman subconsciously feels that if she is guilty, giving in to her emotions in front of everyone, she will be scolded.

Consequently, the habit of self-control deepens with each year, offending many, and leaving her in a sad lonely contemplation of where she went wrong?..

She is not alone.

The Leo in our example is also tormented, wondering where he went wrong.

If he carefully considers everything that happened, he will understand that he made several common mistakes with the Capricorn girl.

He decided that he could fool her with the power of his presence alone, he failed to show respect for her very solid and already deeply thought-out ideas, and he also expected that she would be delighted with his proposal to mold her into his image of an ideal woman, as if she were a piece of pliable clay.

This woman is not clay, just waiting for the genius Leo to start molding her.

She is made of solid stone and damp earth (but keep in mind that the earth can still be warm and reliable).

A chisel or perhaps dynamite might change her ways of thinking and habits (and then only slightly), but you can't take her with your bare hands.

And of course, she won't change from the thoughtless arrogant lectures of a self-assured Leo, no matter how much he attracts her in other ways.

(For Capricorn, Leo represents the eighth house, which, among other things, includes the sexual mysteries.)

She is not going to change her clothes, her hair, or her opinions for any man, not even for that proud man whose smile invariably makes her knees buckle and who makes her sad when he is sad, though she may not say how she sympathizes.

Perhaps he will be able to change her gradually, very carefully, one soft step at a time.

But he should not even think about an immediate change. The Capricorn girl does nothing immediately, and imperious commands, even full of love, can only bring out all her stubbornness and strengthen her already steely will.

However, his sunny disposition and self-confident appearance soften her much more often than he thinks, inspiring her and dispelling the Saturnian gloom more than she herself thinks.

She will listen attentively when he talks about his gigantic goals and future achievements. She stands for right and good, so she will be pleased with his idealism, and, of course, she will approve of any of his achievements. The more ambitious his goals, the more she will support him, although she will not hesitate to point out any vices and shortcomings.

He should highly value her prudent advice and listen to her instinctive wisdom, rather than resent it. Capricorns are amazingly clever at turning dreams into reality.

For her part, she should more often submit to his courageous personality and listen when he advises her to throw caution to the wind when it hinders them both. There are joys that are accessible only to the free spirit of those who follow the song of the lark and who understand that by taking risks from time to time, life can be made more poetic. Leo knows from birth that the Kingdom of Happiness does not provide insurance against possible disappointment and disaster.

He is the King and therefore can teach her the finer points of nobility, but he must lead her out of the dark dungeon of depression into the sunlight - gently, without much shock.

A Leo who is in love with a Capricorn girl should remember the tale of the hare and the tortoise (even if he is irritated by its ending), assuming that she is the tortoise and he is the hare.

He has enough magical power to take on the form and style of a tortoise if he really wants to win the race.

But trying to rush past the tortoise will not stop the Goat's slow and deliberate steps to the finish line.

Time is her friend.

And Saturn is the father of Time. No one has ever overtaken him!

They will almost certainly talk about money about once a month.

They would be better off devoting these hours to love.

What are they arguing about? For it is none of his business how she saves her money, and none of her business how he spends his.

The simple solution for Leo and Goat is to separate their finances completely and forever. She may want to earn her own money, and he would be a complete selfish man if he objected.

If he wants to share his income with her when they marry (for Leo is generous unless his Moon or Ascendant is in Capricorn, Cancer or Virgo), she should calmly accept it, without taking offense or refusing.

Whatever they decide, she should be able to "hide her money in a stocking," invest it as she pleases, and every evening calculate the income from her savings if that gives her pleasure, without suffering from his lectures on her stinginess.

In the same way, he should be able to make a kite out of dollar bills one day, give alms, buy expensive gifts for himself and others, throw away a lot of money on a dream or to the wind if it pleases him, without suffering from her stern, disapproving looks. This is the only way. Love dies because of money. But it is just green paper with portraits of alien presidents, unattractive pieces of metal or checks, which are also just paper!

Only love is real.

Money is a mirage, an illusion.

They should divide it as equally as possible and forget about it.

Ignore it. Never discuss it.

Since their characters are so different, their physical relations depend on the aspects between the Ascendants, the Luminaries, and other planets in their horoscopes.

If these are unfavorable, he will feel that she does not respond to his thirst for tenderness and sentimentality, and she may be unable to physically express her love for him when he makes her suffer for her own imperfections by finding fault with her sexual behavior.

There are a few (very few) Capricorn women in the world whose sexual morals have been sadly distorted by some circumstances in their families, which always results in severe psychological trauma.

Such an unfeeling Capricorn girl takes sex as casually as a handshake. She owes such relationships to the negative side of Saturn's influence, which simultaneously hardens her, her emotions and her conscience.

She performs mechanical movements of an erotic nature, leaving her partners with a feeling of disappointment, but this is far from the coldness and emptiness that she herself feels.

Subconsciously she uses sex to get something, distorting the positive practicality of the Saturnian motto: "I use".

But such Capricorn girls are unlikely to attract a proud lazy Leo, and the overwhelming majority of Capricorn women symbolize the opposite of promiscuity - romantic shyness and sexual gullibility.

If certain planets, including the luminaries, create a harmonious aspect between the horoscopes of a Leo man and a Capricorn woman, their sexual relationship will be magical.

She should keep in her wallet (where she will certainly often look) a small card with the words: "Do not ruin his enthusiasm and generosity with excessive pessimism, depression or excessive caution, and never heap cold criticism on his dignity and pride, which he will understand as rejection."

He should keep on his car mirror (where he will certainly often look) a small card with the words: "Be kind and respectful to her family, keep your lectures to yourself and be gentle with her. Understand that her conservatism is born of an inner fear of poverty and loneliness and some obsessive karmic memories.

Remember: she needs sincere compliments and high appreciation even more than you do.

And remember: she's only pretending not to like sentimentality and hugs."

Come to think of it, Leo should make a very large card. Perhaps 8-by-10 inches. In a gold frame. Solid, so he'll be happy. Antique, so she'll be happy.

She likes being around old objects created by masters who loved their work.

By the way, this is a hint at a gift he might choose for her on the anniversary of the day they met.

She may never talk about it, but she remembers that date.

She wrote it down in a diary and hid it under her mattress along with her first love letter, which he thinks she threw away.

He should have known her better.

The Goat never throws away anything that could have real value.

And let him decide for himself whether his love for her falls into this category...
