With Moon in Capricorn the individuals have a
natural desire to rise to a position of power and fame and are willing to work hard for
accomplishments. Once they have attained their desired goals they see success as adequate
compensation for the absence of personal relationships in life. Those with Moon in
Capricorn who are not fortunate enough to achieve fame and fortune become terribly
frustrated and may even develop ill health as a result.
This
is a difficult Moon placement for women, mostly because women have not traditionally been
allowed to pursue their individual ambitions apart from that of homemaker and mother. So
women with Moon in Capricorn can project their drive and ambition onto their men or others
that they consider superior to them. In this case, there is a tendency for them to become
martyrs to their family or a dominant business partner.
This
position is quite good for men in a worldly sense. A man with this configuration is
usually impersonal in his judgement of the world around him, but he is very selfish
regarding his own aims and ambitions. He is cautious, thrifty and lays his own aims and
ambitions. He seldom makes intimate friends, and usually confides in nobody. His interests
are in the commercial world, and his greatest successes are usually in business.
Many
persons with the Moon in Capricorn have psychological problems in adulthood, which are
traceable to a bad relationship with the mother. Men with this lunar placement often marry
prominent women who can benefit their career, sacrificing the emotional satisfaction they
also need. Women also may marry for position and wealth, often sacrificing true love for
the stability of an older man.
But
whatever their choice, they will not rush into a relationship. Instead you exercise great
caution before making a commitment. They need a loyal mate, one who can earn respect and
demonstrate their reliability. They can be quite generous with their loved one by
lavishing them with gifts, meals, special favors (or maybe financial support). They seek
sincerity in sexual encounters, and would be most satisfied in a long-term relationship.
Like most Capricorn placements, this one gets better with age.
