The essential thing to remember about a Capricorn is that he is concerned first and foremost with what other people think of him. If this doesn't meet with any understanding from you, then drop any idea of a relationship with this one. Capricorns are devoted to getting on in life, so that they can be seen to be doing well. Status symbols were invented for, if not by, Capricorns. They have high ambitions from early on in their life, and spend the rest of their lives working very hard to achieve these things in one way or another. You may understand t6he idea of being number one, but you will have difficulty with the desire to promote yourself at the expense of yourself. A Capricorn doesn't mind hardship to himself as long as he gets what he wants, and he believes that hard work is much too serious a thing to be enjoyed. The sheer pleasure of being you that runs through every vein of the Arian is not there in the Capricorn. This makes them, in an Arieans eyes, unimaginative, dull and unfriendly.

If a Capricorn is interested in you, then you much ask yourself "what does he want out of this", because his ambitions will still be in the forefront of his mind. He is likely to want you energy and ability to succeed. This is something he rarely accomplishes, because he doesn't have the right way of attacking the problems, and he knows it. He recognizes and appreciates your drive; it is similar to the drive of his own ambition. You will appreciate the things he has accomplished. You can admire a person who decides what he wants to do and then doesn it. The pair of you admires each other, but you can not understand why each of you do things in the manner you do. Most Aries-Capricorn relationships start off from sheer mutual admiration.

You will likely be the one who runs the relationship. If you are particularly want to find someone who can not compete with your lively approach, then all is well, but most of you will find a Capricorn too careful, and emotionally reserved, which isn't the way the Arian works at all. In some instances, you may not be ambitious enough for them, especially if you are the sort of Arian who has a great time being himself, and doesn't really make any plans for the future. In this case the Capricorn will try to push you into doing things you don't want to. This is because he doesn't want to feel like you are holding up his plans and not making best use of your energies for you joint future.
