Do you think you're a Know it ALL?

SO lately I've been finding myself knowing EVERYTHING about everything...even things I know nothing about. What is up with this? Every time someone asks me a question about something I have to answer them and if I don't know the correct answer.... I answer anyways and pretend like I do. When my husband (Aries) says one thing about someone or something...I say another and fight to win the debate. He asked me if I knew who this guy was...last name was Moon I think, anyways he was on TV and I guessed at it and said "a football player" low behold I was right! YEAH!! but I really didn't know. I'm not a "know it all" but I'll be damned if I let anyone else know that.

Why are we like this? or am I the only one?

I've had to really think about this a lot because I've never really noticed it before until my husband started pointing it out. At first I denied it and was highly offended. Then, I considered the notion. Now, I find myself doing this a lot. I want to prove my point no matter what the other person thinks. The art of Persuasion..Can I win you over and make you believe what I believe and believe that it's true even if it isn't? God forbid it is the truth and the other person doesn't know what they are talking about... Now that's definitely not going to fly! You must be persuaded into the truth. lol

Seriously though for all who are feelen me on this.... For our own sake let's stop with the shenanigans and fess up to the fact that "we don't know everything". You can only really understand and relate to what I'm saying if you stop for a minute and watch yourself around people. Like I said I never thought I was that way until I looked long and hard at my conversations with others.

For example... I'll answer to every post on this board, even if I don't know the best advice..it's like I have to say something!

Let me know your thoughts on this...........

Smooches!!

Mercury in Aquarius: can seem to pull knowledge out of the air. This is the sign of "exhaltation" for Mercury, so it tends to process information with wicked speed.

ok... well sorry if I offended any fellow Caps. Seems I suffer alone, besides my fellow "lonely Capricorn" with our Air Moons in Aquarius. Never know how all that had an effect.

"So no I don't see any reason why I should "fess" up for something everyone suffers from."

Well EVERYONE doesn't suffer from this problem. My husband (though an Aries) admits when he hasn't a clue about something. Actually, I know many people who do. I understand this isn't shared by all Caps that's why I was asking to get an idea if it was just me.

but thanks for the imput...much appreciated.

haha, welcome to the club. 🙂

cappywife, i said that in another one of the forums. Caps are know it all . I think caps are a bit koo koo , meaning they have unconscois problems. I think that's why they have to be know it all. However, many would deny this. CAPPYWIFE , YOU KEEP KEEPING IT REAL. AND WORK ON THE INSECURITY CAUSING YOU TO FEEL THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW THE ANSWER TO EVERY QUESTION, BY GOLLY ESPECIALLY IF YOUR AROUND YOUR HUSBAND.

AND CAPPYWIFE DON'T WORRY ABOUT IF YOU HAVE OFFENDED ANY CAPS. THEY TEND TO BE IN DENIAL OF ANYTHING THAT THEY NEED TO CHANGE ANYHOW. MOST CAPS TRY TO FIND A REASON TO JUSTIFY THEIR BEHAVIORS.

"ok... well sorry if I offended any fellow Caps. Seems I suffer alone, besides my fellow "lonely Capricorn" with our Air Moons in Aquarius. "


Sorry the above is wrong I meant to say Mercury in Aquarius....not moon

"AND CAPPYWIFE DON'T WORRY ABOUT IF YOU HAVE OFFENDED ANY CAPS. THEY TEND TO BE IN DENIAL OF ANYTHING THAT THEY NEED TO CHANGE ANYHOW. MOST CAPS TRY TO FIND A REASON TO JUSTIFY THEIR BEHAVIORS."

I'll admite that Fly's right... this is so true. I used to be that way, always denying stuff and justifying why my behavior is right and ok. My Aries hubby has really helped me begin to observe and destroy this part of me. It's been hard but it really is something that needs changing. I've learned that a large part of me has been screwed up with such thinking. Life is so much easier then we make it and my free Aries is showing me how to be free....free from worry, stress, control, and DENIAL! I guess my Sag Moon helps too.

"I guess my Sag Moon helps too."

I meant my Libra Moon....what have I been smoking this morning? lol

*yawn*

Hahahaha!!! Honestly, I think anyone with Aqua, Libra or Gemini in there chart can come off as a know it all 😉

Believe me, this cappy outta know 😛

Oh dear ... are we fighting ... on the cap board ——?

satyrsmind , well I see that you have a big problem. Have I become your enemy because I keep it real. Look inside your unconscious and face that. huh, lol you kill me with your nonsense comments about me, in which you nothing about. How FOOLISH OF YOU. I laugh at you as you get serious, who has issues now. I hate when people try to play psychologists, when they have no training and can tell u nothing about the field in it's self. I think I offended you because you are too busy using your defense mechanisms , denial and manipulation to face the truth. Some way to flip shit on me , as if i have the issues and or esteem problem , when this forum was posted and directed to capricorns know it all behavior in the first place, in which you fall in the category. Some way to deflect , sounds like, fantasy fear disorder. Deflecting by fliping my words agianst me... lol ha ha , well you'd have to be a hypnotist and or smarter to do that. And for those of you who went along with that thing, "satyrsmind" Don't be a follower or be so foolish as to follow in her foot steps, continue to work on that whole know it all thing. And by the way , what I say satyrsmind does not come from a place inside me that needs to know it all, like insecurity , or having fear of being wrong like yourself, it comes from a place unknown to earth and bedyond mortal beings.

SO to cappywife, you know what's up we cool girl, you posted this forum for a reason , continue to work on yourself and be all u can be with your husband. Be a true capricorn, nice and sweet, and mellow. Don't be like the ones with issues, loud, obnoxious, satyrsmind, insecure, manipulative , etc. Have a sting behind your character, like me...

Once again ladies in gentleman , don't be aloof or scared by the truth, don't be angry when someone comes with the real. I'm fly for a reason, it's goes beyond the name,

flygyrlchi and I'm out... later for you tricks, in denial

funny how people come into my zodiac signs forum all the time like flies to shit and say things that we sometimes don't like , yet i come in trying to help you people and u guys get extra sensitve on me and start breaking down following satyrsmind. I mean deal with it, face the truth and stop being in such denial of every damn thing , be a grown as woman about it. Don't be like" NEW YORK " from flavor flav of love and or Krazy from flavor flav of love, two people with denial and issues galora.


Love me, kiss me and want me , I'm coming to you to help, but you just don't see it yet, try looking in the mirror and then you will see...

From my experience and from what I hear, Caps are "know-it-all" types. Some actually possess the necessary wisdom while some other take the concept too far out of habit. For some this quality may seem annoying, but itz a quality after all.

Yes, I agree with U about the Gems. They can on any subject under the Sun but usually don't bother about the details which means that they won't withstand a probe. While Sags can't probe effectively at all, Caps are so used to doing hard work and succeeding in almost every endeavor that to them it would appear that they can never go wrong. But they don't argue stupidly and endlessly for sure. Virogs are rigid I agree , to the degree that they are radical in their beliefs. But again U can't really blame them for they toil for minute details day n night.

"so even if you disagree you can't help but admire their style and gumption."

They disarm with their sincerity. Therez no way U can have Ur way with a Cap or a Virgo if U aren't prepared. Plus they don't show mercy too often. I can understand their position - if someone has worked hard, it make sense for him/her to be choosy otherwise therez every chance that the initiative will be usurped/stolen.

stratsymind what the hell are you talking about ,? you sound stupid, and your comments make no sense, You sound defensive , and as I said before you were merely flipping my words around on me, u dumb ass. You're a stupid bitch, now that's an attack.. First of all if you got something evil to say , don't say shit. Noone attacked anyone, you low self esteem girl, I kept it real that's all. Who cares what you think anyway, I know who I am , do you know who you are? I know that the only truth you'll ever get , rather u want to face it or not is from me, and by the way bitch , my name is flygyrllchi, but thanks for calling me fly all those other times." I have problems"? what might that be? fake psychologist? Anybody as perceptive and keen as me would know that you are the fucking joke , taking this pm shit seriously , ol sensitve ass. You're a punk>> lol lol I'm telling it like it is , and you can't handle the heat like most weak capricorns........ truth be told, you're a rationalizing, defense mecahanism using trick who is really the joke... loooking for friends on the damn site, lol ha ha ha ha .. I never attack anyone, accept now, but I do take you all as jokes. And I am aware that flipping shit around and using peoples words against them is not going to work, and doesn't make what you say anymore true. I study people for a living, but one things for sure , I'm a little to ahead in calling people out on their unconscious before they are ready to face it.. = hint

Be gone, punk bitch and don't respond or post another manipulitive , dumb , fake illogical message about me, it's your ( PROJECTION) your issues!! You are crazy!!~ wacko.. Besides this forum isn't about your old fake narcassistic ass, it's for people who are trying to face the truth about themselves and people like me calling in to help. Where do you fit in? Perhaps you should click in on a forum that talks about denial or all the things caps are , but really aren't ...
You're on my bad list now, be gone.
Also I praise noone but the most high!!
Don't ever get it twisted talking about I praise cappyswettie , what are you saying , i don;t even know her. Sounds like your the one with issues.. besides , I'm beautiful anyway and truth be told if we all met in person none of this foolishness would be going down.. so understand that this is a blog and were over the internet, i mean get real !~
Go praise the lord,
instead of some astrologer, learn yourself & love yourself ,

STOP PLAYING THE VICTIM SATRYSMIND, I AM MERELY RESPONDING TO YOUR ATTACK BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T LIKE HOW BRUTAL I WAS IN MY TRUTHFUL STATEMENTS THAT I POSTED TO CAPPYWIFE. PSYCHO.. U THINK U CAN SAY EVIL THINGS AND NOONE CAN RESPOND OR ELSE YOU'LL FEEL ATTACKED , WELL EXCUSEEEE ME BUT THAT'S NOT THE WAY LIFE WORKS.. CRAZY GIRL, GET A LIFE, I'M OUTTA HERE , YOU SHOULD BE BLESSED YOU EVER CROSSED PATHS WITH THE TRUTH I BROUGHT TO YA..
BY THE WAY , YOU SHOULD CHANGE YOUR NAME TO SATYRS-OUT OF HER MIND LOL HA HA HA. = AS SATYRSMIND CRIES


- FLYGYRLCHI~~

VIRGOS ARE KNOW IT ALLS TOO BUT ONE THINGS FOR SURE, THEY CAN AND WILL LISTEN TO ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE. I HAVE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS COMMUNICATING WITH THEM AND OR MAKING A POINT, DEEP DOWN INSIDE THEY KNOW THE TRUTH, BESIDES THEY SEEK THE TRUTH AND THEY LIKE THE STING I BRING TO IT.

' I AM STICKING TO MY GUNS IN SAYING THAT, CAPS HAVE A HARD TIME ADMITTING WHEN THEY ARE WRONG, THAT'S A BETTER WAY TO SAY IT. SEEMS LIKE THEY FEEL LESS ABOUT THEMSELVES WHEN THEY ARE NOT IN CHARGE, AND OR IF THEY ARE WRONG ABOUT SOMETHING. THEY WOULD RATHER PLAY THE " I'M RIGHT GAME"

I THINK CAPS RATIONALIZE AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY IT'S HARD TO GET THROUGH TO THEM, THEY HAVE ALREADY THOUGHT OF THE ENDS AND OUTS AND RATIONALIZED TO JUSTIFY THEIR BEHAVIOR. THEY NEVER AND WISH TO NEVER FEEL WRONG FOR ANYTHING THEY DO. WELL NOT ALL, BUT A HAND FULL

IT'S A TRAP!

Do U give money to others though Cappy ?

Cappywench ...sure U aint an Aries ? 😉

" Guarav I have aries rising "

Without any doubt 🙂

Genome, I am with U on that and I will pray alongside.

"I know my husband and I had a real big problem when his mom was staying with us for a while. She was always putting her two cent in and telling us how we should run our marriage and our home. Eventually she was HISTORY!! He kicked her out and told her to get all her things. We see her on occasion but for the most part they don't really talk anymore.

He isn't close to his father either. He holds some resentment for something's from the past and he refuses to let go. He never talks to him and hates even acknowledging that he has a father.

He is excellent with our children.. I couldn't have asked for a better father for them. He is ideal almost perfect!! He loves our kids and it's written all over his face."


I have to admite that this is right!!! I agree with you.

didn't mean to post that top post sorrryyyyyyy!!!!

I agree with this .... it's true i hate to admite it..

"NO WIRE HANGERS!!! USE THESE 10C A PIECE PLASTIC ONES *SMACK SMACK* and too proud to say I'm sorry. well maybe one smack, caps tend to have more self control.

Or some stuff where someone doesn't clean a floor properly and we freak, instead of smacking them across their head and making them clean it again immediately, we calculate their families demise and watch them lose their job and become homeless, while making sure the last piece of clothing they ever own will be a janitors uniform or something."


OOOOOHHHH MMYYYY GOOOOODDDD Genome.... this was sooooo funny and damn true... LMAO!! I HATE WIRE HANGERS.... THEY ARE THE DEVIL.... my husband is an Aries and I'm a Cap and on my side of the closet there are plastic hangers and on his side there are wire.... if one gets caught on my side I freak out.... ONE THE MONEY GENOME ON THE MONEY!!!

Cap is a sign of punishment. U like it or not, but Caps are "supposed to" judge fairly on the basis of actions. One should be ok if onez assured of fairness in the hand dealt. From my experience with Caps, they were invariably stern, driven by pure ambition and were largely successful. The negative aspect - dismissive, materialistic and insular.

Emotionally, I have been able to pierce the armour of only two and they happen to be my close friends.

Genome, now am not sure if in Ur next post U state that this piece on Caps was a joke for the most part. Hence no more assumptions based on Ur postulates 😉

I agree that Caps have the toughest sign. I soemtimes hate being a Cap. We are always labled as serious and no fun. I think my Sag rising helps me though. I'm a world of fun!!

Genome, Ur post left me amazed and in fact the whole series has enabled me to find an answer to a question posted on the Scorpio board ( acceptance and understanding ). I think I thoroughly understand Ur viewpoint though I may never accept it in my lifetime. One thing which has caught my imagination is how we differently we perceive ourselves in contrast to what others think about us, and here am talking of the sympathy which we corner for our own selves. For example, I hardly pay any attention to the vitriol being thrown on Aries all the while assuming that perhaps itz over-hyped or that am impervious to that.

The world would be a better place if could be as easy and forgiving with others as we are with ourselves.

I've always felt that I was a lot more outgoing then most other Caps i know. Maybe it has to do with my Sag rising. Still I find that I require a whole lot of down time...alone by myself. If I'm over stimulated it makes me kind of nervous. I live with my Aries husband so this happens a lot, plus my son is an Aries too. I have to take a step back sometimes and seperate myself and reload then come back to the party. I usually sit quietly watching everyone play and have a good time, I just like admiring their play because a part of me wants to get down there but I'm so serious i find it hard to do. I've learned to losen up though...my Aries man has really had a good impression on me. He has shown me the lighter side of life.

Sometimes I'm cleaning like crazy and he'll say "Baby why don't you sit down" and i will. Then i realize that everything doesn't have to be done "right now" and i relax and enjoy my life.

yes we get great reviews as far as success and work ethic, but we catch a bad wrap with love and relationships. How can a sign that is so faithful find it so hard to fall in love?

"If I could find it as easy to forgive myself as I forgive others, my world would be a better place."

I immediately thought of that. And guess it varies with people and not with signs.

"You don't think cappies are generally hard on themselves?"

Cappywench,they may be for sure, but I really don't have any means to know on what subjects they would be harsh on themselves and places where they would be able to rationalize. Everyone, to an extent, gets pissed with one's own action/conduct/performance/habits vis`-a-vis` others and self but it would be equally interesting to know about the drivers underneath. For example -

Do U get more upset when U are unable to accomplish something for Urself as compared to those situations where U are unable to help a stranger ?

Now, am not trying to pass any judgement on Cap behavior since I believe that they may have devised their own view-point and a set of criteria based on which they make decisions after careful consideration of the situational variables and weighing everything against the value system they prefer to follow. Diversity in thought and nature is the only constant which hasn't been properly received traditonally.

"I find planning, and plotting fun as well. succeeding is quite enjoyable as well. while others may have wild orgies, and get their jollies, i find it a blast to solve problems and climb ranks. "

Correct me if I am wrong, but the tone set by U gives me a feeling that therez a tinge of vengeance in Ur way of thinking. I may be completely wrong though. Courting success is key to Caps I know ( they know this dance well ). Climbing ranks is also something which I will rate as a positive. But I also assume ( don't know why ) that Caps treat others as resources who can rarely be of any real worth and can be consumed in the fire of their ambitions. Caps, typically, don't gel with colleagues and are always busy wooing the heavy-weights in the corridors of power ( Ur very own Karl Rove ). Now, going by Ur account itz fun for U and prima facie I don't see any problem in this attitude as well. Perhaps itz my Aries brain, but what beats me is how can U treat life as a cold game of pure-play strategy all the time, all through the life ? I think it unnerves me a lot.

"but what beats me is how can U treat life as a cold game of pure-play strategy all the time"

I understand how this can unnerve you Gaurav... I look at life as a game where if you think about your next action and calculate the results then you will inevitably be able to determine the final outcome. i.e., my General Manager and I start off on the wrong foot (so it seemed) and I over heard some co-workers talking about how she just had a brand new grandson the night before. Well I decided that a good way for us to get on the right foot would be for me to go out during lunch and pick her up a card saying congrats. So I did. I figured she would be surprised and the walls would come tumbling down. I was right and the outcome was as I had suspected.

I do the same in my relationships although I'm finding that this is getting a whole lot harder because I realize that maybe I can determine the final outcome in some situations but when it comes to love.... it's all a gamble. This gambling thing isn't a strong point of our sign. I know for me I'd rather not gamble. So maybe that's why love is so hard for Caps, because we can't determine the outcome and we have to take an adventure into the unknown which is terribly frightening. This is where the uneasiness falls into play and here I believe we eventually run off those we truly care about in search for safer more assuring grounds where we feel we can control the environment.

"I find planning, and plotting fun as well. succeeding is quite enjoyable as well. while others may have wild orgies, and get their jollies, i find it a blast to solve problems and climb ranks. "

Who said that? He speaks my language......

"how can U treat life as a cold game of pure-play strategy all the time, all through the life ?"

I have this same tendency as well. Perhaps because I have a Mars in Capricorn. I am uber pragmatic when it comes to ruthlessness and dealing with rivals.

"Money that is all you need to have , seriously earth signs are unevolved and are greedy they will do whatever you want if you give them money "

Thumbs down to this statement... I like money but I like money I worked for. I HATE asking other people for money.. I HATE IT!! I was a stay at home wife and gave that up just so that I could have and make my own money working. My husband thought he could win me with money and a big house but with all the problems... I would have prefered to live in an apartment and struggle and not argue or fight and have happiness.

"Caps, typically, don't gel with colleagues and are always busy wooing the heavy-weights in the corridors of power "


this is false for me too... I usually stay clear of the big time bosses. I'd like to have their job one day so befriending them would be a conflict of interest. We usually don't have to suck up because everyone naturally notices or talents and our abilities.. That's why most old time Caps are CEO's... we work hard for the money and to climb the ladder for our own selves not for anyone else. I learn new tasks so fast that my bosses admire my intellect and put me in charge of the important things.

"colleagues are competition. competition only have 2 useful functions. not functioning, and as step ladders.
"

Good point Genome!!!

yes i do, and i've learned to let go of many things. maybe get help from an unbiased source that is nearby. someone that can try to shift you into a better path. if trying to get through a door, and running into isnt working sometimes we need someone to point that there is a knob.

"being open minded and being willing to change habits is not so easy....you know what i mean—"

I totally understand SM...this is one of my weaknesses.

Yeah - we caps do have a tendancy to feel like we have an unlimited amount of knowledge - well @ least in my case - even if I don't know an answer I'll try my best to figure it out somehow and if I don't understand it right off the bat - I'll think about the situation or question @ hand and try to express the best possible solution I can think of - I believe this is why many Caps have that quality of leadership - esp. @ my job I'll find that alot of people look up to me for the answers - granted I have alot of seniority and experiance but I believe that deep down - a cap feels that being able to help others with any question or situation - they may feel they get some kinda respect out of answering the question @ hand or figuring out the best possible solution for the situation @ hand - I have another Cap friend that is always asking me questions that I don't even think I would think of - but by giving him the best logical answer almost somehow seems to satisfy his curiousity of the question @ hand - I mean granted - I know I don't have all the answers - but just like how I love a challenge - I love a challenging question all the same - plus ya never know when the question might end up being a lesson learned all its own.
