Capricorns often let this get in the way of true love…
Although Capricorns project authority, power, and a stern, serious disposition, underneath it all they are like fearful children. They cannot handle rejection. Even the slightest blow-off or critique and they will be fighting back tears (or their temper).
This doesn’t fare well in romantic affairs, which inevitably become heated. You can’t always agree with your partner, and everyone has flaws. Any mate with serious potential will challenge you. That means you need to relax and accept some negative feedback here and there. They aren’t rejecting you, or even a part of you, there’s just a few things you both need to compromise on!
Techniques to help you in front of the mirror…
You’re probably most comfortable with a very natural look, and that’s actually a good thing! The right cosmetics simply enhance your face. Never mask it or go for a look that takes more than 10 minutes. After all, you have important things to do! But remember, looking good will make you feel more confident, so take a little time and try one of these techniques.
Smokey eyes. You need not go extreme but smudging the upper and lower lash lines with black, charcoal, or a deep bronze will look amazing. Add a couple coats of mascara and your eyes will look sexy.
A red lip. Sure, it’s bold. You can pull it off! Just find the right shade for your skin tone.
Go light on the blush or bronzer. Just use it to liven up and highlight areas that the sun hits.
Curl your lashes. It will instantly make you appear more awake, even if you’ve been working long hours or having a bout of insomnia.
Play around with eye shadow. Just a darker color in the crease and a light color on the lid, blended up into the crease to make it seamless, is all you need. Browns, grays, and smoky purples should work best.
You need to protect this area…
Your sign rules the joints, teeth, and bones. Your knees are especially prone to injury, swelling, bruises, cuts and aches. So, what can you do besides walk around with knee pads on?
Invest in good shoes. And you need pairs for every occasion—running, walking around, standing for long periods, dressing up. You need to be comfortable or your knees take the brunt and you can end up with major pain.
Whatever way you get exercise, make sure you stretch and go easy. Running and sports like baseball, football, and tennis are all really hard on the knees, so be careful and break out any gear that will protect them. Exercise like yoga and swimming is best for you, though!
These are the 3 reasons Caps toss and turn all night…
Not sleeping is a serious and common problem for Capricorns, so make sure you are avoiding these three culprits that rob you of a decent rest…
Electronics. Don’t use any right before bed. That includes your phone, having the TV on, a too-bright alarm clock glowing in the dark, even music. Power down!
Your diet. You need to eat your biggest meals during the first half of the day. You shouldn’t eat within an hour or more of when you want to fall asleep, and that last meal should be light and mainly vegetarian. Gotta have your nightly ice cream fix? Opt for lower fat options if you must—or try a coconut milk ice cream to nix the dairy which can bother your digestion.
Your bedmate. Eek, yes really! If they snore or crowd your space, you may not get a good night’s rest. But the biggest bed pest is your pet! Make sure your fluffy friend gives you room to stretch, or they get the floor.
Try these immunity boosters just for Caps!
When a Capricorn’s immunity goes haywire and you start to catch any virus going around, that’s a signal you need to slow down and stop pushing so hard. So, how can you get back to your healthy, productive self?
Sleep. And then sleep some more. Even if your mind is racing, laying down in the dark and forcing your body to rest and slow down will help.
Drink a lot of water. Not tea, not soda, not juice, and definitely not alcohol! Just plain water. Better yet, add a few slices of lemons, cucumber, and mint for a “detox” drink.
Get frisky. Yes, this is the surprising one. If you’re not totally sick but feel off, anxious, tired—just not “you”—it might mean you aren’t sexually fulfilled. So, time to get to “work”!

Your key to goal attainment…
Capricorns have an understated way of showing they care about people—but one of the most striking ways they do so is by making people realize their full potential and the positive possibilities in front of them. Having a Cap by one’s side is the key to succeeding at a goal. After all, few big accomplishments are possible by going it alone. So, Goats, whoever you’d like to see achieve their dreams, make sure you are not only a cheerleader but a direct helper along their journey!

Capricorns seem like shoe-ins when they score interviews. But there are some very off-putting things Goats can say or do in front of the potential employer. So, next time you consider a new job, don’t do these…
