Capricorn energy has its affiliation with the sea goat. The sea goat comes out of the ocean to climb the hills and mountains of the land. And it is the latter that Capricorn energy is most interested in; climbing their way up to the top.

Capricorn has solar Lib/Aries in house 10 and 4 respectively. So yes(despite whatever protests they make that are to contradict that) they are competitive and measure themselves against others.

But perhaps their biggest arch rival is....themselves. They seek to "outdo" themselves by falsely projecting the competition to you(if that makes sense). So by "beating" you, they "win" against themselves really.

So when on Venus, the competition may show up via Ven related themes i.e spouses, wealth, girl children, beauty, popularity etc. They will want to "elevate" themselves here and be "better".

If that doesn't occur in the objective way i.e. other people do not confirm their superiority this way(public opinion is everything to Cap). There is often jealousy/envy which could even result in them undermining/trivializing ur accomplishments as the "competition".

I always say that when a Cap undermines you, take it to be the reverse of that. They are actually showing you that you may have succeeded in an area where they would have loved to. But couldnt 🤷🏿‍♂️

So if their husband is the most handsome. But they are in a loveless marriage. They'll flaunt how good looking their husband is and how much he adores them and hpw lucky they are etc. To disguise from the true state of affairs.

People who are truly happy , rarely ever brag about their happiness to others or compare themselves to how "better off" they are than others. They just live their life AND it automatically shows to others without them saying anything.

These men are never to blame for anything they do.

For me, the 7th house is more indicative of our relationship with the greater public because the 7th is the "social contact " and by extension "societal contract" we have with other people and the public at large

The 10th house is (to me) how we would like to be known. What is important to us in respect of how our image and how our reputation is represented etc.

Notice that Angie's Chiron is in Aries in house 10. Wasn't she(at some point) a UN ambassador for refugees displaced from their homes by war or political unrest? In this way she was the "defender of the vulnerable " -Chiron in Aries often defends the more vulnerable than they are to deflect from their own wounds.

Ruler of 10th(Mars) is in the 9th. The irony is that she actually wants to be seen as someone who is of a high moral character and is a contributing member to the larger society.

Ruler(Mars) is 12th from the 10th. She aspires to be giving and generous and focuses her efforts(Mars) and drive towards active involvement in charitable causes. Her causes may involve overseas lands.

Now as the public, we have to look at house 7(Cap Dsc). That Saturn is placed in the 12th house (very far from us). She is a puzzle to us, unknown and a bit of a "foreigner" or "outcast" on one hand. Or mysterious and alluring on the other.

Sat is also 6th from the house that it rules. We see her as quarelsome, a "trouble-maker" and "divisive"( this especially since Sat falls in Cancer). We criticise her a lot and are quick to see her at fault.

#sidenote .Its funny because Brad(her 3rd marriage partner- Ven rules the 11th of 3rd husband) is clearly a very good looking man(Ven).

He has articulated his struggles with a drinking addiction(Venus in 12th). This to a point where it affected his domestic life with her(Ven rules the Ic).

Brad is different.

Brad has ruler of Mc(Merc) conjunct AND parallel Mars in his 2nd house. Ruler of 10th in 2nd suggests that he considers himself someone who likes to establish tangible financial security (2nd). And he puts in great effort towards that endeavour.

With ruler of the 10th 5th from the 10th, he also sees himself as a gambler and chance taker within the establishment lf financial security (2nd).

His efforts are likely a hit/miss. Mercury is in Cap (delays in returns)and Saturn is in Aqua. So his returns are slow and long in coming. But when they do come, they stay for a long time.

The ruler of his 7th house (Merc) is in the 2nd. Brad earns his livelihood through his reputation (7th) or interaction with the public. We see him.as valuable(2nd).

Add to this,the ruler of the 7th house is 8th from the house it rules.And this indicates that we are a little
obsessed with him and sexualize him a lot.(Mercury is conj and parallel Mars). We want a piece of him. This even as he may polarize us with his actions.We still want to hear of him. Moon rules the 8th house and is conj Ven conj Merc

I find it interesting that his 1st marriage (7th) ended because of allegations of an affair. 7th house ruler 8th from itself suggests secret rendezvous that affect the steady home life(2nd) .

Native has many passions( especially if the ruler is Merc/ Ven/Jup /Mars) right outside the door. There are people who desire them as soon as they step outside their environment.

#I find it interesting that Brad has Gem on his 7th(ruled by Merc) and indicator of 1st wife conj and parallel Mars. Jennifer Aniston actually has Mars in Scorpio in her 1st house.

Whilst the ruler of his 9th house cusp of Leo(Sun) is in parallel aspect to his Venus. Angelina has Venus tightly conjunct her Asc.

Thank you so much for the insight. Everything you wrote makes sense. It is surprising to me because this person is a sun sag, moon aqua, mercury sag and mars in scorpio. So, I would think they would not have stayed with someone who cheated on them nor they would be so into seeing their worth in marriage or another man--always thought of sag and aqua energy as being more freespiritied in these matters.

Her husband is a cancer sun, aries moon, leo mercury, venus in gemini and mars in taurus. Both of them sort of united and tried to one up me or make my life uncomfortable for absolutely no reason. I recall that at the beginning, she would try to sort of show off or try to seek my attention after she would purchase a sweater or, he would flex every time he would see me (again, trying to show off) and I never paid them any mind. Then, the attacks started happening and I remember someone telling me that they were trying to seek validation from me aside from being jealous. I could not understand why because I do not think I am that big of a deal. I do not comprehend why people would envy or be jealous of oneself. Regardless, I continued ignoring them and remained acting polite when seeing them. It just does not compute. I am accomplished but very low-key about it and treat everyone the same. I cannot understand why would someone make me or anyone else have so much power over them when we are not in each other's lives. We are not friends.

Hello again! This description is very on point. Did you experience this with someone with this placement? If so, do you happen to know the house where their venus is located? I was always under the impression that venus in cap were less 'pick-me girls' for lack of a better term. But now, I am considering if this is a negative/shadow side of Cap. Or if house placements matter too.

I just recalled that I have a cap sun relative who was/is cheated by her husband. As a matter of fact, the woman he was having an affair with showed up at the wedding! And...she still married him.

So, I wonder...I always thought that Caps did not tolerate betrayal--similar to taurus, scorpios. And had a high self-esteem/valued themselves.

Ugh my sister in law has her Venus here. Not a fan! I better not have to sit by her tomorrow. People expect us to pal around since we are the same age...but please have me sit by their 80 year old neighbor!! Good thing there will be alcohol. Like I am honestly going to this for their youngest sister who graduated. I will put myself through this for her. Because she tolerates me and for that I can appreciate her.

She behaves so jealous and competitive from me...that I am embarrassed for her. Like she either has no idea how she looks, or does not give a eff at all.

Like at my bridal shower my relatives did not know who she was, and were like "what is up that girl's behind!?" Her constant eye rolls.

I agree with this. I've casually dated a couple venus in caps, while they didn't leave me for something better I felt like they wanted to date me more as like a status symbol or a piece of arm candy sort of thing. I notice that they always want "the best" or someone who makes them look good by association and are put off by someone who is "uncouth". They don't like messy displays of emotion either, they like their girl to have it together, an independent and successful or career oriented woman.

Let me also be clear that they will not want to date you if they do not respect you... I've been told by a cappy venus + mars that the reason he continues to pursue me is because I wouldn't give it up and that i give him the cold shoulder so to speak. He'd talk about how girls are so easy to get and that as soon as they give in he loses respect for them...

Capricorn can be a very cutthroat, to-the-point kind of sign sometimes.

Not my experience at all. My Cap Venus (in the 6th) bf is also a Cap stellium so he's as Cap as it gets (Sun, Venus, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and North Node). There was something else going on that screwed up the Cap Venus men you knew. Mine sticks with relationships until the bitter end. He didn't go on another date with other women after he met me. He wanted to commit on the 5th date and told me he loved me under 3mo. He doesn't feel sexual attraction based on appearances - only when he has an intellectual and emotional attraction. I'm not a status symbol (I'm good looking but 7 years older than him, at age 40 - societally I don't really give him an edge) and while I'm career/financially stable, I am 0% ambitious and he's twice as successful as me. I am super loving, was super "easy" to get, and there was no game playing and no chasing between us.

He's the most unromantic person I know lol. I don't love that part, but I ADORE how stable, consistent, reliable, principled/ethical, supportive, generous, protective, loyal, compassionate, introspective, and practical he is. He also has a Moon in Taurus, which is beautiful energy to interact with emotionally.

He thankfully has a Leo ascendent, because with all of his inner planets in Cap and Taurus, he would have ended up pretty boring without the flair and entertaining nature of his Leo mask.

For reference, I'm also a Leo rising and Cancer stellium and all my personal planets are in water signs.

I really don't like to play in romantic relationships, when starting to date my boyfriend, I remember for our date I planned a bunch of serious relationship questions for him to answer to and if I didn't like the answers then I would leave, because I have no time to be someone's fling or hookup, not for me at all, I want seriousness and commitment right away! And if you can't provide that for me, I am out like a light! That's my only turn off really, casual, short-term relationships, I simply cannot even fathom it at times how people get themselves into "situationships" it's actually completely foreign to me, and honestly, I do not wish to understand it, because I don't want it. Sounds like such a waste of time, and exhausting. Some may say Capricorn Venus' are boring, but hey, who's got the stable long-term relationship, me? or you?
