How To Get Your Goat: Interactive DIY [Fun] Part 2
***********************
Getting past the googly eyes phase.
So...you've realized that you indeed are a POI to the mysterious Capricorn who's been scoping you out for a while. Now what? Perhaps said Cap is also a POI to you. Suddenly you catch each other's eyes a bit more, flashing a smile or two every now and again. How to move this eyeball yoga routine to something more hands-on. Read on.
1. Start with a compliment: Everyone likes to be acknowledged. Even the formidable Capricorn. But the required finesse in complimenting a Capricorn stems from Cappy's ultra-literal sensitivity to what is perceived. Sometimes, compliments can inspire an awkward reaction in a Capricorn. In a nutshell, delivery is a big deal. Public delivery is an even bigger deal. There is a right and wrong way to compliment a Cap. The right way is to keep it simple and direct. The wrong way is to make it overly fluffy and vague.
2. Make small talk, but work proactively towards depth: Most Capricorns honestly spend much of their personal time in deep introspective thought, silently reflecting, meditating and weighing 'stuff'. Idle chatter about topics that are completely irrelevant to that internal landscape are considered to be categorically nonvital. Moreover, idle chatter is even worse when you don't really have all the necessary details to make it important and so it devolves into gossip, which Cappy will never have time for. In almost any conversation with a Capricorn, the idea flashing in neon lights at the back of Cappy's mind is usually 'how does this topic affect, help, or improve personal progress?'
3. Laughter is great: But unless the relationship is ripe in time, teasing has no place. Making jokes at Capricorn's expense, especially in mixed company will earn you negative points and you risk a trust deficit. The best way to stay positively chummy with Capricorn is to develop a catalog of 'inside jokes'. With practice, you'll only have to look at each other anywhere and anytime to break out in a fit of giggles without anyone's gooey feelings getting tacky. You'll be surprised how 'unboring' Cappy can be in this mode of operation.
Stick to these guidelines and you'll be zooming from visual ping-pong to skin contact in record time.

Handle with caution: Extremely Hot and Cold.
So...now you've got some skin action. And you're not sure if you're brushing up against lava or liquid nitrogen. How to maintain the stable earthy comfort that keeps it all together. Read on further.
1. Be patient not pushy: Capricorn moods are comparable to a ressurection plant in that they can be dormant for long periods of time but with a little care, water and space [i.e oppportunity] they spring up and bloom. Pushing, yelling, screaming, crying and pouting need not apply. If your Cappy's mood temperature feels colder than you're used to, the first instinct might be for you to burn hotter. Well, don't. Instead, just give some space, but don't necessairly sever the strings. Let them stretch a bit, and when they get taut with the right amount of tension, communicate your interest to know the plain details of what's going on. Cappy will usually divulge, though timing is everything.
2. Likewise, perhaps you don't want to be consumed in an inferno: But don't reach for the bucket of cold water just yet. Same as before. Give space and earn better perspective. Cappy's hot moods are typically an emblem of hyperfocus on one goal or another. If that goal happens to be a spitting image of you, then break out the sunscreen. Not that you want to deter Capricorn, but that you do want to make good use of your remaining supply of oxygen before the approaching Cappy steamrolls it out of you. Ultimately, don't lose yourself. Not many people want to smooch a pile of ash.
3. Sustaining earthy stability requires meaningful communication: So do a lot of it. Expecting mind-reading from the get-go is a recipe for disaster. Realistically, no one who doesn't really know you should know anything about you. So while getting to know each other, divulge important information. Of course, good background knowledge of self is important, as is the desire for self-discovery.
4. Capricorn likes structure but not confinement: In Cappy's world, routine and regularity are more valued than surprises and guesswork. Of course, outside of local habits and tendencies, nothing is ever really certain. This is why practical things or ideals [e.g fundamental natural laws] which are symbolic of larger over-arching structural order are important to Capricorn. Sure, the details may be fuzzy at times, but the big picture need not morph too quickly from moment to moment.

The Great Wall of Capricorn: The Ultimate Hiking Adventure.
Well, now you've slammed into that treacherous wall you've heard too much about. You're not sure if you should hammer it with a bulldozer or try to climb it. How to simply walk through it like an ethereal being.
1. Understand that there are too many reasons which form the foundation of said wall: And it's usually unlikely that you'll be able to get to the bottom of it all in 90 minutes. A decade or two, now there's a possibility. The wall is a fully automated shield-barrier that pops into effect whenever Capricorn winds up admist chaos. In some cases it can be akin to a bank vault.
2. The wall is more like an anti-radiation suit and not so much a prison: So it's not that you need to rescue Capricorn from within the wall. But how do you get into a bank vault without criminal activity? 3 ways: You can maintain a legit VIP account to get compartmentalized access, you can become a technician of sorts and do technical/specific work in the vault or you can become a certified vault-custodian - in which case you'll be under very close scrutiny but with great access to the vault. In any case, will you be able to have a picnic in the vault? No.
3. Walking through the Capricorn wall is possible if you're essentially inscrutable: Natively, you either are or you aren't. But progressively speaking, you can be inscrutable if you really want to be. Being inscrutable means Capricorn may not be able to resist you on certain levels. And once resistance becomes futile, the only other option is assimilation. Of course as a POI, Capricorn might pursue that option as well. Someone who is inscrutable will not fit into any specific category that a Capricorn might imagine and for that reason, Capricorn will remain curious about such a person. If Capricorn cannot figure you out, you'll be drawn closer and closer for better inspection. If you're not a POI, you may be ignored completely but if you're a POI, the curiosity intensifies. That's not to say the wall will simply fall. But just that you'll have better chance to get through.
4. If walls could talk, they'd tell you nothing: Because Cappy's walls are not truly meant for hiding any secrets. So don't expect to discover dead bodies or childhood trauma within said walls. In fact, you might be surprised to learn that secrets [if any] are typically coded in logical ideals which Cappy applies to life regularly and openly.

@ ArticleL: Thank you 🙂
@ Truecap: Don't mind if you do 😉
@ ShahBano: That's very kind of you, thank you 🙂
I'm indeed curious to see if other Capricorns can relate as well.

But Mojojojo,
don't you agree that sometimes a secret passage automatically opens for some people. It's not unheard of !
Like in some advanced and high-tech science labs, retina scan is done to authorize the entry; same thing happens with our Cap guys too, sometimes, doesn't it ?

Hi Mojo! It's been a while! Glad you started a continuation thread. As always, I find your writings interesting and informative. You are one of those Capricorns who has a way with words.
This being said, I must admit that as a Capricorn outsider, by the time I would finally reach the "Great Wall of Capricorn", I would either be dying of a heart-attack or dying of old age.
I think that the mission to break the Capricorn barrier is virtually as impossible to break as that of light. Personally, I've given up. I don't have the stamina for it.
Howdy WL,
Indeed, if the mission is to break the wall, you are right, it is impossible. That's why I say assimilation is key because it would be voluntary action on Cappy's part. However, I'm glad you've taken up the courage to do what's best for you. Not everyone is made to toil the earth, but we all benefit from it. 🙂

Yep. Hence: Assimilation, and becoming a vault-custodian....security checks are surely a must. lol. Then through the walls of light you'll be able to pass without being blinded 😄

So mojo, we hear about walls and battlefields all the time. Tell us... What's beyond these walls that's so worthy of our time, patience and dedication? From what I've heard, there seems to be hurdles, bridges, bodies of murky waters etc beyond these walls. You said it yourself; no picnic! Do the successful/lucky/chosen(lol) ones ever get to a place inside the wall where it's peaceful and beautiful and you can finally put your feet up with a cup of coffee?
"Do the successful/lucky/chosen(lol) ones ever get to a place inside the wall where it's peaceful and beautiful and you can finally put your feet up with a cup of coffee?"
Well certainly. But that's the attitude to have before getting through. If trying to get through with the approach of a battalion, then it just won't work.
And as for 'picnic', I meant in terms of appropriateness. Capricorn keeps everyone at a distance. The amount of distance just varies from person to person. The persons who are closest will be held tightest. But to force a way in just doesn't get anywhere, so instead it's best to chill and let gravity do most of the attractive work. 🙂
As for what's inside the wall. Well, that varies for each person. In the best case, it should be much less drama and a peaceful type of composure but still very fun. For some it's a tight wad of insecurities which is no fun for any party.
And lets not forget, I also mention the practice of inside jokes. IMO, this is a highly underused technique. It almost seems like everyone expects a mush-fest with Capricorns after it's all said and done, but Capricorn at the core has a wicked sense of humor which can be a boatload of spontaneous fun. For instance, if you crack an 'inside joke', that puts you 'inside' while everyone else can wonder what's going on. The way to develop that catalog is to spend time together having those moments which can then be carried over into other situations. 😄

I am sorry for answering it,I just could not resist. Do not worry Mojo will also answer.
Beyond that high and mighty mountain range of Capricornia is a magickal valley; the sun never set there, air is always balmy , aromatic, lush green soft meadow, gurgling brooks ; there are no shadows and fears. Deep in the heart of valley, love stays unchanged, almost immortal. Once you are deep in there, you would never want to come back. There awaits a hidden paradise on Earth.
Oh, God, how gushy I am being.
Well, I have every right to be. 21 years of relishing the experience of being loved,cherished and protected by a Cap man.

@ Mojo - While I have a petty cool head, I just cant pretend, so there are days when i'm sweet, nonchalant or I may lose my cool. Guess I will never see the other side with all that moodiness.
@ Shah - Seeing you're talking about your dad, sorry miss, but you do not qualify to speak on the subject😄. You were born and grew up behind the walls, so you have no clue what its like to be on the outside. Sorry pretty face, but I'd rather have a word with your mom and the other women he's been with🙂
Alright CapGal
I won't talk again here,
I found that "acceptance" is the key to getting a hand and or foot or possibly half of yourself past the "great wall". I think Cappy knowing you love him even if you don't understand him opens a small porthole that with time will be big enough for you to fit entirely in.
Even though I'm engaged to Cappy, I still feel as if there's soooo much more to him. But I'm not preoccupied with knocking down walls or getting inside the circle. I'm more concerned with making myself happy and loving him is a part of that. 🙂

Hello and welcome 😄
In this thread, I'd like to tackle the following:
1. Getting past the googly eyes phase.
2. Handle with caution: Extremely Hot and Cold.
3. The Great Wall of Capricorn: The Ultimate Hiking Adventure.
First, I'll start of off with a brief intro to each topic, and then with subsequent posts I'll delve in a bit more. As always, this is intended to be positive, lighthearted and participatory fun.
