MOON IN CAPRICORN, MOON IN THE TENTH HOUSE
When somebody with the Moon in Capricorn starts being especially nice to you, always ask yourself “What do they want?” Might as well ask what a rabid crocodile wants when he licks his chops. The answer is the same in both cases. He wants blood.
I know it’s nasty, but that’s how these people operate. You’ll save yourself a lot of confusion if you define the terms of the relationship from the start. It’s the ugliest Moon sign of the lot. This specimen believes that the world is such a harsh place that the means justify the ends – and if that means taking something away from you, even if you’re more deserving, that’s just tough.
The most hideous effect they have on other people is this using capacity. Only the Moon in Capricorn acts this way – any other plane or point in Capricorn is fine. Why are these Moons so twisted? Mostly you can trace a cold, childish, selfish mother figure. Sometimes Mother died when the child was young. These people never got decent values or adequate emotional nurturing when they were children. They have all lost their mothers in some way. Parents wanted them to push, push, push in society and never mind whose head you have to walk on to get at the Big Chance. Only when you become a Big Shot, says Mummy, will I love you. Is it any wonder so many successful people have Moon in Capricorn? And that the rest of the Capricorn Moons live desperate, fearful lives of isolation and failure? A Capricorn Moon may seem to be better at something than you are, but this isn’t as likely as the cold fact that they want it worse than anyone. Adolf Hitler had this Moon.
Somewhere under that heart of cardboard is a conscience, though. Capricorn Moons always unconsciously set themselves up to get cracked right in the teeth by their nasty ambitious boomerangs. They always get clobbered badly, but you shouldn’t hold your breath waiting. Stop them in their tracks before they rip too many people off, including you. They have a wide circle of “friends” (whom they secretly consider to be their inferiors) to whom they moan and groan about how depressing and hard life is. They don’t have patience for your sad story, though – they might get sucked into your depression, and they’ve got better things to do!
Selling them is easy. Just find out what they want, and make them pay for it, like Mother did.
All right, there is another side to Moon in Capricorn. Those black-dog depressions lead to not a little profundity, even wisdom. If you don’t mind waiting a couple of centuries for the buggers to trust you, they will reward you by acting loyal, hard-working, and responsible. They’re not afraid to work.
These emotionally-guarded paranoids have a deep yearning for love, but they’re not giving it away. You must earn it. When they fall in love, they give their hearts for life. Maybe their love goes deepest of all the signs, but they’d rather show it in material ways. They want your slush, but they’ll be damned if they embarrass themselves showing their vulnerability…Chickens!!! Forgive them – ’twas the doing of Mommie Dearest.
Once in a while you find a sweetie with a Moon in Capricorn; then you can be sure you’re dealing with what the young bores over at the Unification Church call an “Old Soul”. Robert and Susan, you’re okay sweethearts…but look out for the other, “Young Soul” types!
Abe Lincoln is the best example of Moon in Capricorn’s most surprising and enduring trait – a dray, wry sense of humor. Someone in a crowd heckled Abe one time, calling him two-faced.
“I leave it to you,” quipped Abe, our finest stand-up comic President. “If I had two faces, would I be wearing this one?”
