I am a Capricorn, what are you?

[Queen of Interesting Nuts]

Capricorn Traits : The Capricorn is perhaps the most steadfast and resolute Sign of the entire Zodiac. The Mountain Goats, or so the Capricorn are known, are ambitious, reserved, determined, relentless, practical and helpful. They make excellent leaders and organisers, thanks to their focused, concentrated thought process and a responsible, sincere attitude. These Workaholics of the Zodiac, however, are liable to be perceived as cold, detached, stern disciplinarians, mostly owing to the influence of their ruling planet Saturn. Yes, they can be negative, suspicious, resentful, inhibited, pessimistic and obstinate, but the Capricorn are rarely bad at heart. They are tender inside, and their hard exteriors are designed well to help them stay guarded against the hurt and rejection, they so strongly despise.

Traits of a Taurus Woman


Taurus women love nature's beauty.


By Carly Schuna

Traditional traits of a Taurus woman include emotional strength, independence, loyalty, introversion, and a flair for the artistic. Taurus women are also genuine and tend to seek out the same quality in others. They don't become upset easily, but when they do, they have volatile tempers and the capacity for extreme stubbornness.
 

General Traits

Emotional Strength

The female Taurus is very emotionally powerful and can handle huge amounts of stress. That stress may come from her job, her family, or herself, but she seldom crumbles under pressure, and she usually won't even complain or show any signs of being upset. She prefers to avoid looking for sympathy and she will instead rely on her independence and fortitude to get through a stressful situation. It's best not to push her, though-if she is deliberately provoked beyond her stress limits, she'll react by becoming very angry.

Independence

Independence is one of the most well known traits of a Taurus woman. She knows how to get things done herself and certainly isn't afraid to take on a new project or lead others. She often prefers to work on her own rather than in a group. A Taurus woman is assertive when she needs to be, but she doesn't mind when someone else takes the lead, especially her partner in a romantic relationship.

Loyalty

A typical Taurus woman is quite loyal. Though she may have many friends and acquaintances, she'll grant her loyalty to only a few, and she'll expect the same thing in return. She's always ready to provide support or guidance to those few, and she'll be easily disappointed if she doesn't get the same in return. Taurus women are choosy when selecting romantic partners, and it may take them a while to find someone to whom they'll commit, but once they do, they'll be very devoted.

Introversion

Many wouldn't guess that Taurus women are naturally introverts, since they don't hesitate to take on leadership roles and they have no problem with going after what they want. However, the Taurus female needs time alone to recharge after being with a large group or socializing at a big event. She loves planning her own schedule and choosing how she perceives the things around her, which she's more easily able to do on her own. Her internal life is very active, and you won't be privy to many of her thoughts unless she's close to you.

Pisces. I'm sensitive and artistic. 

[Tired Tess]

I am a Capricorn but I also have ADD.  Focusing is a huge issue for me.

I am neither negative or suspicious.  I wish I was.  Would have saved me a lot of pain and hurtful memories.

And I wear my heart on my sleeve (yea, I know, I'm a mess). No hard exterior here.

Don't find alot of truth in this zodiac thing (for me, anyway).

I'm a Virgo, dead to nuts. the running joke in my family is that I was past due date b/c I needed to be born under Virgo as opposed to Leo.


Virgo
August 23 - September 22

Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac, to be exact, and that's the way Virgos like it: exacting. Those born under this sign are forever the butt of jokes for being so picky and critical (and they can be), but their 'attention to detail' is for a reason: to help others. Virgos, more than any other sign, were born to serve, and it gives them great joy. They are also tailor-made for the job, since they are industrious, methodical and efficient. The sense of duty borne by these folks is considerable, and it ensures that they will always work for the greater good.

Virgo is represented by the Virgin, although this association should not be taken literally. Rather, Virgos tend to take on some of the qualities of a Virgin, things like modesty and humanity. Some might consider them repressed, although Virgins would argue that it's a noble quality, as opposed to a negative one. Most of all, Virgos enjoy indulging their practical and logical side and poring over their projects to the nth degree. To say these folks are good at fact-finding almost understates the case, since Virgos revel in their exacting (some would argue pedantic) behavior and are a whiz with minutiae. Virgins are an asset in the workplace as they can be counted on to get things right the first time, every time -- and no detail will be overlooked. They are also balanced and fair in their assessments in keeping with the Mutable Quality assigned to this sign.

Virgo is ruled by Mercury, and as portrayed in ancient Roman mythology, Mercury wasn't one to sit still for long. This swift-footed god was a bundle of energy, both physically and mentally, and that pretty much sums up the Virgin's makeup. A Virgo's brain is in overdrive most of the time, which is why these folks get so much done. Those born under this sign are also able communicators and use their mental acuity to maximum advantage. All of this brainpower can make Virgos prone to skepticism, and can even lead to the kind of over-think that surely leads to overkill. Thankfully, though, Virgos are also a studious lot and can temper their worst impulses with a bit of careful analysis. Virgos enjoy studying a situation in great detail, whether it's a work project or a friendship. Virgins are truly interested in understanding things. The bane of many Virgos is the perfectionism that can get in the way of their usual clear thinking. 'I'm not a perfectionist; I'm discriminating!' a Virgo would say, happy in the knowledge that their taste is unparalleled. Along those lines, Virgos are also neat and clean, save for the occasional sloppy Virgin (they do exist). Virgins are also reliable and practical and oh-so-useful to have around.

The Element associated with Virgo is Earth, and in keeping with that, most Virgos are grounded, salt-of-the-earth types. The flash and dash can go to others, since Virgos would much rather be humble and easy-going. That said, Virgins do enjoy material possessions and are (dare we say?) picky about what they bring into their lives. Some might even go as far as calling them self-centered, but it's really more of a desire to surround themselves with what's right -- for them. This knack for discernment also serves Virgos well in business, where their decisions are usually dead-on. Those born under this sign are eminently sensible and use their critical eye well. While Virgos can be worrywarts, they do their best to temper these impulses. However, if this nervousness goes unchecked, it can lead to hypochondria, that ugly skeleton in the Virgo's closet. For that reason, Virgos are extremely health conscious, to the point of being storehouses of information on diet and hygiene. Many Virgos even choose a health or medical career so they won't miss a beat.

Working out is elemental for Virgo, if only so they know intellectually that they're helping themselves physically. See, the benefits of exercise are far more important to Virgo than the process itself. That's why Virgos are likely to time themselves on their runs and get in those 300 sit-ups every day. When it comes to the game of love, Virgos are able to loosen up somewhat and are devoted to their lovers, even if they can be a bit jealous. Since Virgo rules the intestines, worried Virgos need to be wary of bowel upsets. Soothing relief often comes in the way of earth tones, which is why Virgos like to be surrounded by shades of tan and a warm yellow.

The great strength of the Virgo-born is in their practicality, sharp mind and attention to detail. When merged with their willingness to serve, Virgos become essential helpmates. They can be picky -- so what?

chiver78 - You need to find you a Taurus!  My DH is a Virgo and we are the perfect match according to the horoscope match thingy.  But it's true in RL too.  26 years together so far.  And we're picky too.

a Taurus? interesting..... the most stable relationships among the Virgos I know have been w/Pisces.

[Sam_2.0]

Leo! Although I really don't like being center-stage, but I do tend to take charge of situations and take action instead of being emotional.

please don't take this the wrong way...but I'm surprised you're an Aries. frankly, I'm surprised any of us might be an Aries. Aries is the birth sign of the youngest souls, and I'm astounded that any have found their way here.

now I'm curious to see the zodiac map for all our posters, to see if those old souls have a reason to be trusted.

Mine is pretty much dead right too. The pessimistic part is not true though but in general it is true for me whichever site I read it from.

LOL!  I thought the same thing when I read her post. (re: the negative parts only)  I would have never guessed her an Aries.  But we have a couple others here that are too and I would  not have guessed that.  Maybe because my brother is one and I don't like him or he's not the right kind of Aries.  He's psycho Aries. Is that a sign? 

[steph08]

I'm a Leo. It kind of fits and kind of doesn't. I am stubborn and like things my way, but I'm not really a spotlight kind of person.

my dad's not a spotlight guy either, but he's everything else Leo with a birth date/time smack in the middle of the sun sign times. I'm inclined to think that the "spotlight" feature of the sign is dependent on your upbringing. Dad's the baby of 7.....he's lucky Memere and Pepere knew his name!

[Jaguar]

I'm a Taurus/Gemini cusp with an Aries Moon and a Leo Ascendant.

[ginpin]

I'm on the Gemini/Cancer cusp.  We always joke that there are three sides to me. 

[Tennesseer]

Taurus. Easy going until pushed. Then stubborn as hell.

[Lizard Queen]

Another Taurus here,  I forget my moon sign.  

Being a money board, I would expect a lot of Taurus' here.

[sesfw]

LEO ....... and I can growl.

Stubborn, but I don't want the spotlight either.

[constanz22]

Scorpio, but on the cusp of Libra. I very much have mixed traits from both signs.

Good point!  We do love our money!

My ascending is Virgo
My moon is Capricorn



My mom was a Capricorn.  We got along great the first 38? years.  Then she went coo coo bird (more than usual).  

[zibazinski]

Gemini. Sometimes I do feel like two different people. 

[mmhmm]

I'm a Pisces.  I'm sensitive and artistic, like Swamp.  <snort>

[Apple]

Aquarius, but I never remember what that's supposed to mean, so don't know if it fits me

Introverted, smart, stubborn, and sickeningly sweet pretty much covers me.  But push me and you'll see a whole 'nother side...

[Cookies Galore]

I am a Virgo. I look at people with contempt and loathing, I think I'm always right, and I have anxiety and stomach issues. I'm a pleasure to be around.

[NastyWoman]

I'm a Libra. Reading up on Libra characteristics went pretty well (according to how others see me IRL). Until I read that a Libra is patient!
That is the first time ever that anyone has used that word in relation to me

[marvholly]

Another Gemini here as was late DH. As is new granddaughter (born yesterday).
