Why are aquarius and capricorn incompatible?

From what Im seeing both are straightforward..blunt.. enjoy shocking people and challenging them...and they both can do this to each other without either taking it personally...they are both trying to achieve ambitious things... they are both serious with a mischievious streak...they both understand a need for solitude. The capricorn is ruled by logic and reasoning and so will enjoy long discussions with aquarius.

The main contrasts also seem to now be not so different... capricorn wants to control and so does aquarius. The capricorn likes a mountain to climb and the aquarius provides mountain.

What are peoples experiences of this combination. I as a capricorn seem to be surrounded by aquarius. I was raised in aquarius fashion with no discipline and total freedom. I could go out and explore and had few guidelines so I had to teach myself everything. I became a unique zany character rather than conventional. An English (100% white etc)Buddhist who prefers spanish music to english.

Now Ive aquarius boyfriend. This guy explores all the topics I love and also has a forceful challenging way of discussing morals and .we both feel a revolutionary energy and channel this into removing all the bull with a slap of common sense in the face of the modern stupidity. So Im trying to understand better to increase chances of success.

My understanding of what an aquarius man is looking for is
1. someone to share with the quest to improve the world and discuss ideas how to do this
2. someone who will stimulate learning
3. someone who will let him take the lead so he can be in control and not controlled
4. someone who lets him wander here and there and rather than sitting twiddling their thumbs goes off and does their own thing also
5. someone who is not heavy or hard work
6. someone who is honest and straightforward
7. someone who respects privacy and understands what happens between you is not for anyone else to know

did I miss anything?

I think cappy girls don't have the "unff" to really take Aqua guys,where we want to be...not that the relationship wouldn't work..but it just seems more..."unique" & less forceful with oh lets say..a LIBRA..saggy or even leo & all the other compatible signs..I like Capricorn girls,we seem to have this weird connection,but..something is just not all the way there for me..or maybe something is there,and I don't want it.....idk,but never say never ..anythings possible!🙂

I'm Aqua girl, I have a fantastic Cap male friend....I think as friends, it works wonderfully [I love to spend time with him, he's hilarious and cares about his friends (I met him through my boyfriend actually and he is truly a sincere and caring friend to my boyfriend and I have no words for how much I appreciate that), but probably wouldn't work romantically. I also have a Capricorn moon, so what I am about to say is more from my own point of view because of my moon and not from any sort of deep understanding of my Cappy friend, but I think there's a trap there of having two deep thinkers.....in a relationship, I'm sure if youre either a Cap or an Aqua you want someone intelligent, but it also helps a LOT to have someone who can draw you out of the world you've made in your head. there would probably have to be very heavy planetary influences in other areas for Cap and Aqua to work out romantically. also, I think Cap and Aqua probably would be two people who are least willing to change who they are or how they operate if someone had an issue with them, or some quirk or thought or whatever. I know that personally I basically think 'eff you' if someone has a problem with me that I don't view as a problem [which is NOT equal to someone calling me out on my BS........I am able to think about what someone says to me and if they have a valid point in whatever issue they've taken up, then I am fine with what theyve said, or if it is someone I care about, then I have all the time in the world to listen to what they have to say and what they have a problem with]......and I don't know about how Caps operate in a relationship, or how Aqua males operate in a relationship, but as an Aqua female, I am more than ready to be vocal to my boyfriend if he does something that offends me or makes me angry - or, should I say, offends my ideals. yknow, let's be honest. [but at the same time, my cap moon does ground me].

but friendship between Cap and Aqua can be really great if you are willing to give it a try, I think

sorry, ignore the last part of my message........of course anyone can make it work, and Capricorns are very intelligent people! I like being around them when they're not depressed....I hope it works out for you two

Friends yes...lovers hmmmm it can work but he'll definitely have to be okay with Aqua girls quirky personality and the fact that she's an idealist and isn't as emotionally grounded.

Are you insinuating that even after all the compatibility b/w you two that you 2 still aren't just working out in the way you'd thought?

If that's the case, maybe there are other outside factors (outside of personality & similarities in goals) that may be contributing to why things aren't going as smoothly

He may be emotionally unavailable
He may not yet know what he truly wants
He may crave someone more like him but yet when he finds it, he sub-consciously realizes being with his twin is more annoying than it is fulfilling
He may feel that your similiarities make you 2 work more better as friends than lovers

Sometimes 2 people can be so alike that it almost ruins things, b/c each person never gets the opportunity to feel the thrill of being with someone who has traits that the other lacks or vice versa

Its going great but Then Im puzzled because the astrology says we are doomed so ......DUNCE can you explain what you meant about this unff? whats unff and where do you want to be?

I can understand you are seeking something unique and not forceful but to say a capricorn cannot be EXCITED ABOUT a mans mental development or his spiritual/pyschological insight or psychic powers, as well as genuinely interested in furthering a discussion to help him develop them further ......is not my experience as a capricorn. Im not on the cusp Im 4th january but im totally dedicated to mental development rather than material development. Its the most important topic for me also. Internal progress is my main goal

Well if you're basing your relationship potential with someone entirely on astrology, well, you just shouldn't

Other placements in both of your charts dictate how smoothly or not things will go b/w you 2. And even then, there are other factors outside of astrology that can influence each person's ability to make a relationship work

I think Aquas & Caps are so much alike but yet so different. In the areas that they're alike, they have an automatic & natural understanding. But in areas where they are different, they're really different

Every couple has a choice. They can either let their differences break the relationship OR they can consider those differences to be "minor" & shrug it off, all the while only focusing on the things they have in common

im capricorn which is tight but libra moon counters to make me relaxed and willing to compromise
hes aquarius which is spontaneous but virgo moon gives structure i think

CApricorn likes to make money; Aquarius will donate them all
Capricorn likes stability and foundations; Aquarius will shake them all up
Capricorn likes family and security; Aquarius prefers friends and freedom

It;s almost like Capricorn is the rich, fertile soil, and Aquarius is the flower that blooms on it. It's best the Aqua be a woman.

Sorry I haven't been specifically helpful. I just don't know about Cap female-Aqua male. This is a famous couple, you might want t read up on their history. Btw, Carla Bruni is a hottie!

She WAS, before that ugly creepo put his claws on her.

Well she already wh0red (for a lack of better term) herself to the world; he is just a piece of acessory??

Maybe it is the other way around too.

(tsk tsk tsk)

Ooh that's a good point.

I read a bit of their history, and boy, was it complicated. Apparently she became a 'philantropist' after her name became Sarkozy, so that Aquarian humanitarianism must have rubbed off some to the Cappy.

You seriously can't find as much poise Carla Bruni has though, she's almost iconic because of that posture!

unique poses too!

LOL!

I mean as compared to the rest of the modelesque tribe. This one stands out. I will pick her for an ad!

Carla Bruni is a Cap/Sag cuspy, like my gf. They do genuinely posses a humanitarian side and arent nearly as career/money-driven as the late december/early january cappies. THe Sag Force is still strong in them 🙂

oi im 4th jan & definately not career driven 😛

the reason why aquas + caps don't work is b/c they're complete opposites. caps r more concerned with work, making money, their bank account, YOUR bank account, lol. my ex was a cap and he was super controlling and investigative -- which doesn't work with a freedom-loving aqua. he was family-oriented; i wasn't. he was a mama's boy and i loathe mines lol. see where im going with this? i think the first, initial time together is great but eventually once that washes over u'll realize that you're better off with a gemini, libra, aries, or sagittarius! haha

also, b/c caps r such a work-oriented sign, down the road they'll treat u like an employee constantly asking u to do things for them. what once seemed like nice gestures u offered suddenly becomes constant favors and then eventually barking orders! this is bad esp. b/c aquas hate taking orders. work is their #1 love. which is fine until they choose it over u. my mom's a cap too and she's just the same.

however, the upside to caps is they're great providers. but that's it. every other role they have is terrible (mother, father, boyfriend). this is all just from experience so don't hate on my post too much! lol all in all, if any fellow aquas r planning to get intimate with a cap, i suggest keeping them as a "side boo" not a main boo 😉

well Its not turning out like that. I havent been able to work for 14 years due to disability so Im used to being poor financially. I the cappy like to buy better quality food whereas my aqua man wants to save money and not give to the big supermarkets on principle. My aqua man is the boss basically because thats what works. Im quite easy to please and if he leads all sorts of interesting things happen. Work isnt my number one love..its family and home. My aqua spends a lot of time with family and so do I. Our finances are seperate and Im very interested in learning about respecting peoples personal space. Its giving me a new experience of people because its not something Ive thought about much. I mainly think about other types of spychology like self development .thats my career I suppose and Im very ambitious about it. But I respect people who are not interested in self development. My main self development is increasing respect for others. So this new focus on personal space of others fits well with my 'career'
