Let's see how well these hit the mark.

Capricorn Sun, Aries Rising

These are the die hard, —get ahead?? competitors always muscling up and trying harder. But there's a bit of a dichotomy between the impatience of Aries?? and Capricorn??s —goes around, comes around?? sensibility. Capricorn understands that things take time—and this helps to mellow Action Aries?? restlessness, but there's still a massive dose of —no time to waste?? get-up-and-go and maybe even some —butting my head against the wall.?? No one likes to get ahead like these overly competitive characters, so when it comes to staffing their crew, slackers need not apply. These Capricorns avoid sluggish people like the plague; their impatience and intolerance can make for heated exchanges. They??re the sorts of businesspeople who are out on the golf course in the early afternoon—but not because they??re shirking the day??s work! To the contrary: They were at the office before dawn, got things humming immediately, and allocated work to their employees when they arrived. Beyond that, sitting in the office with their feet on the desk just isn't their style. They can't sit down, they can't wait to compete, and they usually hit the road early. They??ve always got to be doing something.

Still, these Capricorns aren't quick to relinquish information that could diminish their control—so they don't necessarily —tell all?? in the course of a conversation. Sometimes this is wise, but at other times it springs from less positive motives. They need to scrupulously avoid useless and self-aggrandizing competition. They sometimes get preoccupied with the notion that someone's trying to get ahead of them and snatch their next promotion. If paranoid, they can be rather cruel and might unwittingly end up provoking the perfect assistant to either respond in kind or leave for greener pastures. Turning excellent help into a needless rival is never an effective strategy! So to avoid sabotaging themselves, these Capricorns need to cooperate and encourage rather than uselessly compete. If they??ve learned this lesson, the sky??s the limit.

Capricorn Sun Taurus Rising

These people are a composite of the practical businesswoman and the common sense banker who sagaciously knows where to put his money. And that's always a powerful combination for success! They build things that last! If it's functionally practical and potentially profitable, these people are front and center, giving coherent explanations and clear directions. Even though the personality is aloof Taurus, they benefit from an early afternoon birth that provides some spryness and flexibility, as well as an eye on the future that brings things to fruition. And Taurus?? —easy does it?? helps to negate some of Capricorn??s —make everything difficult?? competitiveness. They inherently know how to —cut the bull?? and find the bottom line. Taurus, the Banker??s, —Keep it simple, stupid?? approach gives these people an extreme resourcefulness, so there's apt to be less pessimism here than with other Wise Old Goat types. But they??re still too serious.
They need to keep a handle on their sometimes overly sour demeanor. Grumpy stump Taurus and —it's all going to hell in a hand basket?? Capricorn can create some hell on earth if they don't lighten up. They need to look for inspiration wherever they can find it. Why not let people off the hook and move along? They need to remember, —To everything there is a season.?? There's a time to work, but also a time to play. There's a time to stand firm, and a time to yield. There's a time to frown, and a time to smile. These Capricorns need to avoid —all work and no play?? tunnel-vision, especially regarding authority. Two of Taurus?? greatest strengths are determination and focus, but when these Capricorns take an —I'm in charge?? attitude, making authority and power their only motive, they alienate people right and left. They appear pushy and insensitive and, worst of all, completely ungrateful for the help given them. These are the pitfalls that lose them the cooperation they need so badly from their peers. After all, who ever liked a bullish and jealous power-junkie?

Capricorn Sun Gemini Rising

An —icing on the cake?? sincere and glib personality is a fine fit for these Wise Old Goats; they become more disarming and approachable, with lots to say. These Capricorns are those wonderfully communicative people who are always willing to share the reasons behind their decisions, leaving no room for confusion or resentment. There's an open mind, open dialogue, and open-door policy at work here. Being Capricorns, they still love to be the boss and they??re always in charge, but Gemini brings more flexibility and a willingness to hear others?? ideas rather than rule with an iron fist. Jitterbug Gemini??s chattiness makes these people a lot more open than other Capricorns—everyone stays on the same page because there's more sharing, and that improves the team effort. In this way, these Capricorns endear themselves to their underlings and overcome a good deal of that make-everything-difficult negativity that often accompanies their sun sign. As a matter of fact, they??re often adept at using words to create a favorable impression. They know the power of benign misinformation, and they??re skilled at using it in the most fortuitous circumstances without letting on that they??re following a calculated Capricorn plan. And no one's the wiser—and there's no resentment!—because everyone's purpose is served. How??s that for win-win silver-tongued Gemini slickness?

These people are great schoolteachers; their Gemini instruction and Capricorn discipline work wonderfully in the classroom. They communicate openly with their students, helping them make the connection between their classroom education and the ways of the world. As managers, they do the same, making it clear to their underlings how today??s behavior will affect tomorrow??s outcome. These people prefer to be in charge of their own domain. They don't respond well to being positioned under someone's thumb. They want authority for themselves as well as the opportunity to put their own thoroughly thought-out ideas into practice, knowing that they??re usually right on. They??re also apt to be great salespeople, peddling their wares with a productive glibness. And, finally, many self-employed truck-drivers who love the back-and-forth, here-and-there nature of their work are Capricorns with Gemini rising.

Capricorn Sun, Cancer Rising

Are you ready for this? It's a Capricorn with a sensitive touch and an obviously obliging concern for others—and on a good day, they??re even nurturing! These Capricorns are as in-charge as ever, but they have Cancer??s feel-their-way-along home and hearth quality that keeps them in good favor with a tightly-knit circle of family, friends, and colleagues. These fiercely loyal Capricorns are custodial towards the people that mean the most to them rather than endlessly competing with them or constantly chasing them with a big stick. Unless they??re dealing with a slacker: Their workaholic Cancer coupled with their —I'm paying attention to you?? sundown birth makes them painfully aware of everyone's contribution, and they??ve no truck with laziness. But they??ve a sensitive touch and a visible willingness to be fair, especially with people who make a legitimate contribution and pull their own weight. Cautious Cancer is helpful and non-confrontational, and their dinnertime birth gives them the ability to see others as equals. They??re ideal bosses for productive workers.

As always with Cancer, there's a full-blown thrifty-nickel here, and possibly a constant nagging feeling that they??re going broke even when their finances are healthy and their cash-flow adequate. They easily get extremely preoccupied with their career responsibilities, especially if they like their work—and that takes their eye off the bottom line. This is when their unfounded fears about finances creep in. They??re practical in their outlook and not notably adventurous in spirit—at least until their financial security is intact. They won't be going out on safari until this month??s books are tallied and next month??s schedule is completed. But as long as they broaden their perspective and identify and pursue their larger interests, they make themselves happy and successful, and with their obvious awareness of and concern for friends and loved ones they??re beloved and appreciated by all.

Awe, I thought you were talking about people with cap rising


😆 Here's one just for you!

Scorpio Sun Capricorn Rising

The by-the-book, —trust the system, it works?? Capricorn personality brings a respectfulness to the Scorpio ego that allows these Scorpios to toe the line a lot better than most. Even drudgery, something most Scorpios don't easily endure, might be tolerable in this combination—as long as there's a —business is business?? reward at the end of the daily grind. Scorpios with Capricorn rising are used to cooperating and equitably manipulating their way to success and approval; they??ve a masterful sense that started in childhood and continues as adults, and their mid-morning —look to the future?? birth enables them to make useful connections with powerful people. They usually see eye to eye with the boss and have a natural ability to contribute as a genuine team player. As business people, they??re often the strong silent types but are quite willing to listen. After all, Scorpio always likes to find things out, and Capricorns are naturals at not letting the cat out of the bag. They??re often involved in community programs or organizations like Junior Achievement. They diligently do their homework and can produce all the statistics supporting their agenda. They??re superb researchers. They jump through all the hoops and legitimately earn a reputation for being in the know.

They also need to avoid being vengeful. Because they??ve often established many valuable connections and accumulated a large amount of resources, they have the power to affect a lot of people; and it's their responsibility to use that power in benevolent ways. They need to remember it's rarely in anyone's best interests to devote precious time, money, and energy to negative issues that are better forgiven. They need to look to the future, focusing on what they can build for tomorrow rather than on what they can destroy to vindicate the past. Working shoulder to shoulder with their colleagues, they can tackle and complete monumental projects from the ground up.

Capricorn Sun Leo Rising

Now here's a sober Old Goat with enough showmanship to leave an impression. These Capricorns are usually way out in front, looking for ways to display their competence, and if they??ve any objectivity in their judgment and wisdom in their deeds, they move mountains on a daily basis. With their keen sense of responsibility bolstered by Leo??s fearlessness, these Capricorns can easily become the most confident, competent, and inspiring people on the planet. Yet, catch this: Their early evening birth gives them much more modesty from within than shows on the confident Leo surface. So what they expect in return for their generous effort might be considerably less than anyone anticipated. They??re robust and courageous, and given Capricorn??s responsible approach, they do their homework and come prepared. And, of course, this guarantees a masterful outcome. But while they display rows of trophies, their sincere and endearing attitude is —Aw, shucks, it wasn't nothin??!?? These people do enjoy the respect and recognition they earn, but their generous Leo personalities make them more than willing to share the wealth.

They know the importance of other people's contributions and they mean to be good to those who??ve played a role in the team??s success, but if they??re so wrapped up in their own performance that all they see is themselves, they undermine the team??s morale. All they need to do is show some gratitude and be encouraging. How difficult is that? Objectivity is key here, with attention given to how they??re being received every step of the way. When friends and colleagues seem to be pulling away or resisting, it's probably time to radiate a bit of that Leo warmth.

Capricorn Sun Virgo Rising

When it's time for Plan B, call in Capricorn with Virgo rising! These people are understated and conservative, but their shrewd, analytical, and calculating approach always figures a way to play the angles, solve the problems, and get the job done. The unassuming Virgo personality pays close attention to the details, and, with objectivity, the ability to see and organize the little things makes calm, cool, and collected Capricorn a powerful problem solver. These people don't miss much. Capricorns born mid-evening are the managers who know how things work and love to get into the nuts and bolts of keeping it running. They??re respected and appreciated for their willingness to step out onto the assembly floor with rolled-up sleeves, ready to analyze the problem and apply the solution, even if it means tightening a few screws themselves. They probably enjoy better rapport with the plant workers than with the board members, anyway. Their modest Virgo isn't likely to disregard the team; a deep appreciation for the help they get is more their style. And they??re often sought out for their advice because they??ve a shrewd intelligence that can figure out a workable solution pretty quickly. As a matter of fact, there's apt to be a real thrifty-nickel here. They can always make it happen for less, but their penny-pinching ways just might become an obsession because they just love to save time and money.

But these Capricorns do need to avoid being smug about their analytical powers and their Wise Old Goat wisdom. It's one thing to take pride in their problem-solving skills, but it's quite another to taunt others with their intellect. A little humility has a better effect. Especially for these high and mighty mountain goats who so competently play a vital role in smoothing out the kinks in our day-to-day operations. Remember: They??ve already earned the respect and cooperation they??re asking for.

Capricorn Sun, Libra Rising

Like few other combinations, Capricorns with Libra rising know how to take care of business and keep things humming while everyone's treated equitably. All parties are satisfied, happy, and coming back for more. They start out trying to please everybody and do a better job at it than any combination in the zodiac. Likable Libra??s best foot forward warms these Capricorns, giving them social skills and an eye for what's fair, so their compromise leads to a profitable bargain every time. They??re superb dealmakers!

Their midnight birth also adds a home and hearth quality that serves to take the starch out of their brusque Capricorn attitude, so as overseers they??re less high-handed and more hands-on; Libra enjoys mingling at all levels. They make a good impression with friendly—but right-on-target-small talk and a tasteful appearance. There's a lot of patience here, too, though not the kind that allows a person to sit calmly in a waiting room for hours on end. These folks are energetic, but they do understand that Rome wasn't built in a day. They??ve a —tomorrow??s another day?? sort of patience that allows them to bide their time during a corporate turnaround or wait for the best loan rate when purchasing a car. Their Capricorn —goes around, comes around?? gives them that sensibility But in their personal lives these Capricorns need to avoid being too long-suffering with people who don't affect their lives in a positive way. Libra??s —I don't want to be alone?? tendencies get in the way here, and they sometimes put up with bad behavior beyond reason. As managers, they??re slow to dismiss unproductive employees, especially if they did the hiring themselves. In these cases, they feel that the employee's shortcomings are a poor reflection on their Capricorn good judgment; they wonder why they didn't see the problem coming from the beginning. This is usually an erroneous self-criticism, but even when it's legitimate it's still water under the bridge. They need to cut their losses and move along. When the people they presently depend on let them down time after time, they need to deal with it and welcome new faces. Their respectful consideration will certainly earn them their success, but to expedite the process they may sometimes need to be less forgiving and move on when situations are not beneficial.

Capricorn Sun Scorpio Rising

This might be the most reserved and mysterious sun sign/rising sign combination in the zodiac. These people are exceedingly tight-lipped and often —all-knowing.?? And there's a hell-bent fearlessness in these —take it on the chin?? Capricorns that equips them to handle unreasonably demanding jobs that others avoid. You can find them doing a remarkable job teaching and mentoring developmentally challenged children or underprivileged or at-risk youngsters. They??ll fit almost any place where their authority is never questioned. Capricorns with Scorpio rising are especially adept in these types of roles because, among other things, they??re fiercely protective of people who depend on them. They??re just not the sort of individuals to shirk their responsibilities or let people down; the guilt factor always plays a big role with Scorpio.

Capricorns born in the wee hours have a good eye for profitable investments; they love to investigate and find out what's happening behind the scenes, so they always do their homework. And their interest in business often leads them to careers related to insurance or lending. They enjoy jobs that allow them to handle confidential or privileged information and excel in positions that require the selective dispensing of sensitive data. However, they sometimes go overboard with their secrecy. These Capricorns just don't feel that they owe anyone an explanation, so they attract suspicion to themselves by refusing to let people know what they??re up to. Once again, it's the old Capricorn game of making things more difficult than they need to be. When their Mysterious Scorpio paranoia kicks in, they start treating even the most innocuous information like Top Secret files. They really need to put their cards on the table. After all, how else can they earn trust? Another Scorpio quality that might create havoc with responsible Capricorn is their intense desires that can build to ravenous cravings. Scorpio loves to overdo things, and that doesn't sit well with Capricorn??s temperance. These full-throttle achievers can actually over-motivate themselves and end up with an intense, pushy avarice.

Capricorn Sun Sagittarius Rising

It's a ying and yang lifetime for these people! Positive, sweet Sagittarius is the antithesis of sour, sober Capricorn, so these people bounce back and forth between positive and negative thoughts. But remember: Sagittarius brings heavenly kindness and Capricorn brings earthly wisdom. So with good character and a productive blend of their divergent qualities, these Capricorns enjoy meaningful, successful, fulfilling lives—if they follow their inspirations better than Capricorns usually do! More than any other rising sign, sweet, optimistic, Happy-Go-Lucky Sagittarius gives a spring-in-the-step and a bright-eyed buoyancy to the dour old goat. Capricorns aren't known for their dazzling smiles, but these folks can brighten a room on a good day. Though not every day is a good one! Positive thought is the key, and letting their Sagittarius shine through is essential. A big help here is their pre-dawn birth, which gives them focus and determination without the self-serving intensity that usually accompanies these traits. Always respectfully aware of protocol, they give others their space. They??re Capricorns! But when they settle on an objective, they mean to see it through to fruition. They earn a lot of respect with their never-say-die resilience, and if they put a little icing on it as they achieve their goals, they??re much loved. With Sagittarius?? —lighten up and move along?? winning ways, success is in the bag.

Finally promises are important here. Sagittarius knows the power of a promise better than any of the other signs, so these Capricorns are likely to use them to motivate, encourage, and inspire people. And as long as they deliver—fine! But promising more than they deliver is a recipe for disaster. An earthly, wise Capricorn knows this deep inside, and that practical wisdom needs to be heeded. A happy middle ground between Capricorn??s thoroughness and Sagittarius?? leaps-and-bounds optimism is a sure-fire path to the winner??s circle.

Capricorn Sun Capricorn Rising

As with all dawn births, the sun sign characteristics—both positive and negative—are more obvious and somewhat intensified here, making objectivity indispensable. If they deviate from the principles of respect, responsibility, loyalty, and trustworthiness, these Capricorns almost never succeed. Their destiny just doesn't allow them to cut corners. It's when they??re organized and competent that they impress the boss and get what they want—and Capricorns are supposed to know that! Whether they??re children obeying their parents or local managers satisfying the big boys at corporate headquarters, the rewards come more easily if their behavior isn't undermined by insensitivity, pessimism, or an overly sour disposition.

These Capricorns go by the book, whether it's the Holy Bible or the NASA manual. They work well in any business-is-business environment. They believe in rank and file and they march along accordingly, which serves them well for as long as they don't go overboard, appearing callous and a bit of the slave-driver. They need to remember that flexibility and compromise are functional. Whether they??re managing a plant, teaching in a classroom, or manning a Navy destroyer, consideration and cooperation are always better strategies than jealousy and opposition. If they remember this, their chosen loyalties and willing underlings will work together to put them in the front office with a calm, cool, and collected, widely recognized mastery—with a wall of honorary plaques and trophies to boot.

Capricorn Sun Aquarius Rising

First impressions are paramount here! The funny-bone side of the Big Attitude Aquarius personality doesn't always come bubbling out with a calm, cool, and collected Capricorn ego, but if these people will allow their satirical sense to see the light of day, they??ll earn more favor and end up getting what they want with a lot less effort. Not that they??re short on effort! But a friendly, satirical sense brings good company to share it with, making it all the more enjoyable. Life's just easier for people who make other people laugh, and a humorous comment with a cynical tone just might be the way these Capricorns put their —best foot forward.?? There's a lively electricity here, so once they??ve learned to step out of ego and cooperate with their friendly, —Gee, I kinda like that guy!?? Aquarius personality, these Capricorns always end up in very good favor.

So the key here is learning to relax and keep a sense of humor. It's all in the attitude! It's imperative that these people keep their sour grapes under wraps. With Capricorn negativity they can develop a dangerously recalcitrant attitude in disagreement with all authority—and with Aquarius?? liking for things that go BANG!, whether it's the Chinese New Year or a firearm—they need to cool their jets, relax, and lighten up. They mustn't be stiff and unreasonable. They need to remember that we??re all in this together: They should always aspire to be the kindly driver lending her cell phone to a stranded motorist. With a more flexible, benevolent, enlightened spirit, and an —all for one and one for all?? attitude, their accomplishments might be astronomical.

Capricorn Sun Pisces Rising

There's more watery emotion here with gentle Pisces rising, and a sensitive Pisces personality provides the Capricorn ego with a light touch flexibility that many Capricorns lack; these people are both respectful and peaceful, with an unassuming attitude. They??re richly talented, sometimes delicate, and highly multi-faceted, and their ability to listen makes them superb administrators. They??re the bosses with an open-door policy. Their underlings are always free to speak their minds, though they might not always get a response; they??re likely to walk away scratching their heads, saying —I wonder what SHE thinks!?? Yet even though they don't always react or share their thoughts on matters at hand, Capricorns with Pisces rising are still pretty easy to work for. Their silence means they??re happy with the work. They believe in the people they??ve hired, and they give them a long leash as well as the space they need to get the job done their own way. And their strategy works because these Capricorns possess such a sensitive radar that they detect troublemakers and avoid hiring people who will fall down on the job or make unnecessary waves. That's why they??re in good stead with their superiors!

But it's Peaceful Pisces?? fear of disapproval that might cause problems here. As long as they keep an objective eye on themselves, all is well. They??ll diligently carry out their responsibilities, remaining in good stead with their superiors, asking for only a modest reward. But the key is confidence. There's no real reason for these people to be pessimistic about their ability to impress the board of directors. Yet some fear always lingers: That's delicate Pisces, the Cosmic Traveler. Even though they??re not the boss and probably don't want to be, they still understand what the boss expects—and they??re responsible enough to deliver every time.
