Capricorn’s are a very prudent and reserved sign. They often prefer to strategize for results rather than using force. They are crafty and are very quick to seize any opportunity that may benefit them. They are very image oriented; their reputation means a lot to them.

Capricorn’s are very disciplined and determined and they work even harder when given praise, acknowledgment, and approval. If a Capricorn is working in a job where he/she doesn’t receive encouragement and praise they won’t be there very long.

They also tend to be very emotionally reserved in relationships. They may be very warm and loving occasionally but more often than not they would rather do things for you to show their emotions. It’s easier for them to run an errand or fix something to show their love then it is for them to be incredibly romantic and sentimental. Capricorn is often seen as a sign that keeps people at a distance.

Additional Messages:

 Are you closing yourself off from the people you love? Putting up walls to keep others at bay? Are you slacking off at work because you’re not getting the encouragement and praise you seek? Do you have a hard time expressing your emotions and communicating effectively?

If so, studying the element of Earth and the sign of Capricorn could be helpful. Creating an amulet with vervain or adding alfalfa sprouts to your cooking could also be beneficial. Perhaps carrying an apache tear or an obsidian stone would benefit you as well. Adding rock salt to a bath will help ease your stress as well.
