The life of a Capricorn

Really sucks sometimes... always struggling and working hard while others breeze by or are just naturally lucky. ''

That sounds very beautiful I need a translator

When I was younger it was work, work, work. Climb, climb, climb. Now, in my late 40s, I'm still working, but I've slowed down and I am enjoying life more now.

Get it while you are young enough to get it. Have faith, grasshopper. 🙂

Oh, and the ones breezing by, well.... fast forward 20 years. I see where they were then, and where they are now and they are no better off now than they were then.
They have nothing to show for all those years of skating by. And me, I own my own house, have a retirement fund, a savings account, I'm debt free (except for house and car), and I'm very comfortably supporting myself with money left over while they are still struggling to pay their basic bills.

So, yeah. Keep plugging on. 🙂

And, no I'm not bragging, and I'm not judging, only observing. I wanted to point out the work, work, work vs. the breezing by life philosophy and the end results.

Now, natural luck....I got nothing. lol!

I think Capricorns are unlucky because we like to do things right follow rules and live with structure.
This world doesn't benefit those who live by the rules.
I'm in my mid 20s and am just starting to learn how to bend the rules or find creative solutions to problems at work. If you do what everyone else is doing, you'll always be behind in the ratrace.

My Mars is Cap and I've been thinking a lot lately about how I've learned all my lessons the hard way. Everything I've ever learned.. I've had to really get my hands dirty, make mistakes, work my ass off. (Life feels to me a lot like a mountain goat struggling up a rocky mountain.) One of my biggest frustrations in life has been how easy others appear to have it. I've finally gotten past that. We all have different struggles.

no such thing as luck. It is all about karma. People who have it easy have done good karma in their previous life. They earned that good life.

There's no such thing as karma or luck, imo.

You reap what you sow... get what you give.

Who knows, maybe they'll win the lottery. 😄

Ive been through more shit than ppl 3 times my age And This isn't a pity party just trying to figure out why. Maybe I was an asshole in a past life but in this life I do my very best and always get the short stick . Ive worked for everything I have since I was 16 no hand outs no family around to help . Just wish I could catch a break one day . I have a strong belief in astrology and capricorns really struggle from childhood and have to climb mountains. If I could sum up my whole being in one word it would be sacrifice and I'm proud of that its just a never ending beat down and when a bad day comes around its a complete nightmare . I can see where karma plays a role and reaping what you sew but I let go and kept strong learn from my mistakes and do what I can to have a good life it's just never enough and there's always something else lurking around the corner . Make the best of it ?

I think it gets easier as you get older.

Glad to hear that it gets better with age. My Cap often seems to have the weight of the world on his shoulders which makes him cynical and bitter sometimes. Not going to lie, it kind of frustrates me sometimes because he's quite negative (he calls it realistic).

Things should already be easier for him at his age. (he's close to 40 isn't he?)

Truecap, he's nearing mid 40's.

capricorns always feel as if everything should come easy for them. thats why they always marry up. lazy bunch of ppl

yeah, my life can have sucky points. funny, tyrese-a capricorn, wrote a book titled "getting out of my own way" lol.

Lmfaaao

Caps aren't weak
Caps aren't gold diggers or whatever word that loser used to describe us
Caps don't cry or "cry"
We aré too prideful and independent for any of that shit†

you need to stop being being so uptight. Maybe find yourself a nice water sign and your world will never be the same

The reason life is hard on caps - because Saturn is our ruling planet.

Just trying to express myself dude and hear from other caps
Having a bad couple weeks
But yeah I'll keep it pushing ‰‰
my closest friends are all water signs love themm
Yay for Saturn ‘ lmfao

in my experience caps just like to complain and be negative.

you see the whining and complaining because theres comfort in that. i had to be honest with myself once and admit that my life sucks because i like it to. idk, having everything go my way and actually being happy doesnt always appeal to me. id be bored as heck if im being honest.

no being happy is not boring, being negative and pessimistic is boring.

sometimes it does get old, but it can really be comfortable, unfortunately. its a struggle being trully happy...like it takes serious work imo.

my cap friend is more upbeat and "happy" but sometimes he's faking it lol. i dont think he realizes though.
