Because they’re natural opposites, Air and Earth signs don’t always make the finest partners. Libra, as an Air sign, may feel as if Capricorn is holding them back at times, while Capricorn, as an earth sign, may struggle to deal with Libra’s indecisiveness. Although there will definitely be many obstacles for these two to overcome, this is a partnership that can contribute to both parties’ progress. “If they continue with it, this connection might be life-changing for both of them,” Garbis says.
Is Libra and Capricorn a bad match?
Capricorn has a tendency to say things like “my way or the highway,” which Libra despises. In the hands of the strong-willed goat, a Libra stuck in the la la realm of uncertainty too often could be putty. The people-pleaser or a Libra who is all talk and no action loses Capricorn’s respect. Despite the fact that the extremes of these signs do not mix well, many Libra-Capricorn couples grow to appreciate what the other has to give.
The goat is likely to want to “talk shop” a lot, but Libra, being a cardinal sign, understands ambition. Libra simply goes about things in a different way, choosing to take the most direct route. Capricorns may assume Libras are slackers, but if they pay attention over time, they’ll notice how productive the latter is. Capricorn might be a hoarder and packrat at home, whereas Libra enjoys an open, breezy space. Libra prefers to keep above the fray, whereas Capricorn has an unshakeable bad mood from time to time. The goat sometimes just needs to be alone, and Libra’s sense for saying the appropriate words can help.
Libra comes to life with the classic home-loving goat, having found a lifelong mate. By embracing Libra’s realm, Capricorn is attracted into the pleasures and beauties of life. After they’ve made a commitment, their differences help to balance things out and pave the way for mutual fulfillment.
Positive aspects include being socially ambitious, conscious of one’s appearance, appreciative of finer things, insightful, and sensitive to sexual tensions.
Negative aspects include being greedy, status-obsessed, deceptive or manipulative, and having power issues.
Can a Libra marry a Capricorn?
Making a genuine commitment to each other will be a constant source of contention for Libra and Capricorn. Capricorns, according to Garbis, prefer to put off meaningful partnerships until later in life and may not settle down for a long time, which may or may not be a good thing for Libra. They have a proclivity for falling in love quickly and becoming bored just as quickly. “I believe Libra prefers to be the star and center of attention, and they enjoy harmony and people falling in love with them,” she explains. The partnership may not get off the ground if Capricorn does not give Libra the time and dedication they require.
Capricorn is also a career-oriented sign, but Libra is focused about relationships. Because Libra enjoys living in luxury, they will welcome Capricorn being the provider. But that can only go on for so long. If Capricorn prioritizes work over the relationship, Libra may decide to pursue other options.
So, how long do you think this romance will last? It can, according to Garbis, especially if the partners are of different ages and one is more mature than the other. “Capricorns are more likely to settle down later in life once they’ve gained some experience, whereas Libras may wish to put off this relationship for a while and go with someone more upbeat in the meantime,” she explains.
Capricorn and Libra are generally seen as incompatible partners. There will be many stumbling blocks for them to overcome, but if they are serious to making it work and put out the effort, these two have the potential to last.
