This is how Capricorn gets along with others, based only on their Sun signs. These are compatibility interpretations for all 12 possible combinations with Capricorn.
Yes, this is a limited and incomplete way to determine compatibility. But, Sun-sign compatibility is still the base for overall harmony in a relationship. We explained this in one of our synastry lessons where we said that it’s best to start with compatible Sun-sign elements.
The rule of thumb is this: yin and yang do not see eye to eye. Yin goes with yin, and yang goes with yang. While relationships between yin and yang can succeed, they require more work. The earth and water zodiac signs are yin. The fire and air zodiac signs are yang.

Everything is in their favor to build a stable relationship.

Capricorn and Aquarius will fascinate each other in the beginning, but they will hardly reach a safe haven in this relationship. Capricorn and Aquarius are too different in their natures.

Capricorns have a tendency to be petty and even mean. Also, those who like an active social life may find it difficult to get used to Capricorn’s seriousness.

I think you capture the essence of these signs and provide some very insightful comments. There’s lots to ponder and work with in your observations. At my house, we are:
* Sun signs: Sag (older) and Cap (younger)
* Moons: Aries and Sag
* Venus: Cap and Pisces
* Ascendants: Cap and Leo
There’s lots of common threads that make communicating with each other very enjoyable and fairly easy and sometimes, unnerving, because we find each other “in each other’s heads” frequently without realizing it. Your contributions have given us some “words” and “concepts” for resolving issues, but mostly facing the people who are judging from the outside and questioning the purpose our relationship (mostly relatives). The purpose of our relationship is teamwork, goals realized, and ease of communication with a future! We have found some clarity and alignments with your help.
