White Sparrow Speaks...      Earth Signs
  CAPRICORN – Cardinal Sign

Dear Capricorn, thank you for taking time from your work schedule to stop by my web site.  Little things mean a lot, right Capricorn?  Silly me, I didn’t mean your bank account, investments, property value, or family photos.  These are always big issues for you.

Well, I won’t expect a public hug from you at the end of this, all that mushy stuff is hard for you to handle sometimes.  I know, I know.  I also know you would happily receive one if it were Internet possible. 

My mother was a Capricorn; my mother is a Capricorn.  It’s a long story, but in a way I had two of them.  Both, born on January 13th.  One of them had brown eyes, the other one has blue.  They both helped to shape and mold me into the person I am today.  Or, at least they did their best.  Being mother earth incarnate is tough for any sign, except for perhaps Cancer.

Capricorns invented the word workaholic and you will be happy to know you did it very well.  You know, with your little lists and everything.  No need to laugh to yourself and say oh no, she is going to shred us Cappis apart.  I both respect and admire your business savvy and talent for being a pillar of strength in tough financial times.  Not many can cover this type of dilemma better than you can.  I also can perfectly understand how important career success is to you.  Why, it’s the very mountain you climb the highest to reach.  New shoes and all.  By the way, how many pairs of shoes do you have in your closet anyway?  I also know, you are directly related to fine jewelry and fine food as well.  Quality, all the way, and at a good price of course.

You have old heads on young shoulders.  Maybe that’s why your hair always looks so nice.  As you get older, you start looking younger.  Hence the expression, forever young!

Now, wipe that smile off your face and get ready to learn more successful tips about your sign.  I’ll try to keep it short and sweet, just the way you like it.  I know you won’t want to wrinkle whatever your wearing as you read this.  Then again, I should know better shouldn’t I?  You only buy the best in clothing and anything that wrinkles probably would live a short life in your closet anyway.  However, you would never just throw it out, you would definitely try to donate it or give it away.  Should this be the first time it’s wrinkled on you, I know you have the situation covered as usual and you probably are heating or having someone heat up the iron for you now. Typical earth feature.

Capricorns are the first person you want to speak to if you are wondering about the weather.  If they don’t know, they will find out.  It’s important to you, because it will determine which pair of those boots or shoes and other appropriate outer clothing you put on.

Now, in case someone out there isn’t sure of one of the best ways to please you, I will fill them in on your behalf.  Send payments to you on time, and take you out to eat and drink at the best places around.  The better the quality for the least amount of money will really impress you.  You are not the type to be wasteful with anything.  That is why you are able to find just enough room for that little taste of rich dessert.  Go ahead, you deserve it, and you are a gracious guest to invite out at anytime. 

The one thing that is hard for you to swallow is to be embarrassed, especially in public.  It’s just not nearly as easy to get down, as a sincere compliment, is it?  Therefore, I will do my best here, Capricorn, not to step on your toes.  I know how many times you must have stubbed them already.  The reason for this is that you are so grounded as an individual you find it hard to pick up those feet just high enough to avoid catching on things.  Or, you are so driven to move forward, that you step on the heels of others.  You’re amazing to watch in public.  It doesn’t matter how long a line up is, somehow, someway, you manage to find the shortest way through it.  It never ceases to astound me.  You also will be sure to let them know in subtle ways, if you did have to wait.  And you get away with it! 

You are a love/hate customer of the credit card people.  You have great credit, but I doubt very much if any company ever collects interest from you for late payment charges.  That’s just being wasteful, as far as you’re concerned.  It doesn’t make any practical sense to you to give them any more than you need to.  Those extra cents add up in a hurry and could be well invested somewhere else.  Besides, you want nothing to spoil your good community reputation.  You know how long that takes to build up and how quickly it can be tarnished. 

For all your Saturn seriousness, you can be a real hoot when you want to be.  Some folks wouldn’t be caught dead poking fun at themselves, but not Capricorn.  You know how to make everyone laugh.  A wet blanket you are not.  You do great in the social world.  You enjoy living life to it’s fullest by taking in and noticing all the little things that others might miss. 

You are no stranger to a dictionary either.  You may even have several of them kicking around.  You enjoy learning new words, and new ways to use them.  Many of you may even have your first school book or report card stashed away some place safe.  Do you remember your favourite teacher’s name?

 I’d never doubt it for a minute!  You probably remember the rest of your classmates and their families as well.  Capricorn and Cancer zodiac babies can create memories out of memories.

Had your work out today, taken your vitamins?  I bet you have, or you will before the day or week is through.  You are health conscious folks.  You know many a cure, for many an aliment.  You are the healing helpers of the zodiac.  Another great earth quality.  You probably get a little annoyed at those who ask for your medical advice and then dismiss it without even trying it for themselves.  Besides, how do others expect to make money if they are not healthy enough to get out there and earn a living? Who has time to waste just sitting around licking one’s wounds when there is work to be done and award dinners to go to?  You didn’t buy all those shoes and fine suits, just so they could take up space in your closet.

Now, how am I doing for time here?  If anyone knows what time of day it is, it probably is a Capricorn.  They like to check on that as often as the weather.  Most of you have had quite a collection of different watches over the years.  Clocks too, may be of great fascination to you.  You female Capricorns practically invented the kind that you wear around your neck or pin to your jacket.  Besides, you need to know what time it is so that you can call home and let them know your plans have changed.  You will also probably explain to the family that you will stop off on your way home to grab an extra item or two for the dinner table as well, or ask if they need anything.  This also stems from being an earth born sign.  They don’t need to attack you at the front door either.  They can just darn well wait until you take off those new shoes first. 

If your day went badly, who would ever know?  How many people have ever openly seen you cry or break down?  You can probably count on one hand how many that would be.  Why would you give the other fellow the satisfaction of seeing that they got the best of you?  Hardly!  Good gravy, you are not going to stoop to their level either and sling the mud back publicly.  You’ll just find another way around things, that’s all. 

Well dear Capricorn, sit down and have your supper before it gets cold and you have to reheat it.  If I know you, you probably aren’t surprised to find the last thing you went to heat up is still in the microwave yet.  Then, when you discover it, you just laugh it off.  That’s what’s wrong with this world anyway, isn’t it Capricorn?  People just need to laugh and smile a little more often than they do, besides they probably would live as long as you if they did.
