Talk to me, like lovers do.
Capricorn and Scorpio are intuitive and responsive friends. They are two zodiac signs who naturally respect each other and are drawn together because both have defined character traits, a responsible attitude to life, and great self-awareness. They are eager to chat, enjoy a sense of humour together, and feel very comfortable, so the relationship is off to a rather positive start.
Although promising, this zodiac match is set for a rather mellow start. There’s not initially a great deal of chemistry, in fact, the sexual and physical side of the relationship grows with time. What makes this astrology combination very harmonious in the beginning is that they don’t ruffle each other’s feathers, they’re not immediately threatening to each other, and there’s a warm camaraderie that develops.
This relationship often starts as work colleagues or people who are in similar social circles. With Scorpio, we have fixed water, and with Capricorn, we have cardinal earth. As a fixed sign, Scorpio matches well with earth because earth has that sensual, pragmatic, and reasonably grounded nature that appeals to Scorpio. Capricorn is drawn to the strength it finds in fixed Scorpio, who are also ruled by Pluto, the power planet.
Capricorn gravitates to power; they are magnetically attracted to people who are naturally stalwart, charismatic, understated, and very composed. Capricorn recognises in Scorpio a person who is solid, reliable, and who keeps promises and the Goat loves that part of Scorpio’s nature.
Scorpio, as a water sign, enjoys being with cardinal Capricorn because water sometimes lacks direction, and Capricorn as a cardinal sign can provide the motivation and leadership that compensates for the passivity that Scorpio sometimes experiences.
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, and along with the fact that Capricorn is earth, there is a double dose of stability, reliability, responsibility, and also ambition and Scorpio is drawn to those traits. They understand that perhaps they sometimes don’t push themselves as hard as they can, and they admire that Capricorn goes after what they want and does so in such a diligent way.
So, between these two star signs, there’s quite a lot of animal attraction, but it’s not immediately apparent; it develops. This relationship has a 75% chance of being successful.
Romantic Compatibility
Capricorn is a romantic sign, particularly in a more classical sense. They like to wine and dine, do traditional things, and enjoy treating their partner. Scorpio loves to be pampered and likes to have tangible signs of love. For both of them, gifting is a love language which suits them perfectly.
Communication is less of a love language between these zodiac signs, but when you get a Scorpio and Capricorn together, they do communicate very well because they’re on the same wavelength. So, we’ve got an added benefit here that we might not get with many of the other combinations of Scorpio or Capricorn.
For each of them, affection is a powerful love language. Capricorn really enjoys being physically demonstrative, they like giving hugs, shoulder rubs, holding hands, and Scorpio feels secure and loved in that environment. Scorpio generates ample warmth; they are very sincere, and once they begin to trust someone, they really respond with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. Capricorn absolutely thrives on that vibrant loving energy that Scorpio brings to the relationship.
Both are modest and understated, which also assists the romance because neither will embarrass the other or push the other out of their comfort zone. Both take a rather patient approach to new relationships and are slow to reveal themselves, so that means the romance starts quite sweet and develops its own distinctive flavour over time, which is quite delightful for both of them.
Capricorns are looking for a star sign that is very sexual and that, they will find in Scorpio and Scorpio are looking for someone who has the ability to bring a little bit of romantic magic, and Capricorn can be fairly creative with their romantic gestures. They work hard at love, which is awesome.
Sexual Compatibility between Capricorn and Scorpio
What we have here are two zodiac signs that do have powerful sexual instincts. Both of them automatically know what to do in the bedroom, it comes to them quite naturally. They will both have a desire to please each other, and because the levels of trust are quite high in this relationship, the sexual juices will begin to flow.
Capricorn is drawn to the charm and charisma of the Scorpio. Scorpio is drawn to the strength in the Capricorn. They both feel that each other are respectful and reliable, and they feel safe in the relationship and when they both feel safe, they want to explore sexually.
Now, one thing Capricorn does have to do is keep it more light-hearted in the bedroom. They need to introduce games, elements of humour, and tender, heartfelt pillow talk. Capricorn can sometimes neglect the communication side of sex, but communication is very important to Scorpio, both in foreplay and after the act, to make them feel loved and secure. Capricorn has to work on that.
In terms of Scorpio, they need to express their flair and drama. If the Scorpio happens to be a woman, it’s very important that she dresses in a visually exciting way by using interesting accessories, colours, and styles of dressing, because this is essential with Capricorn. Scoepo should go ahead and dominate in the bedroom.
In fact, they can both take the lead at various times in the bedroom and take the initiative as this makes the bedroom arena stay rather tasty.
Friendship factor between Capricorn and Scorpio
These two zodiac signs make good friends as they have a similar way of communicating. They are also very determined characters who know their own minds, and therefore when they say something, they mean it. As they are both sincere, they are likely to trust each other and want to share secrets. They are very good at reading each other and giving advice, so this is a pair who can talk about all their problems and navigate them together. They are also a pair who find they can make sense of life together.
Scorpio can sometimes be a little bit too emotional and subjective, but Capricorn brings logic to the table and helps them see issues clearly, and that’s very reassuring. Capricorns can sometimes lack emotional intelligence and tend to see things in a way that’s a bit dry, but Scorpio can add context and help make Capricorn more aware of other people’s motives. They help Capricorn read the room, read the atmosphere, and that way they can become more socially confident.
Neither of these star signs are gregarious party animals. They will probably enjoy working together or doing work events. They are both very focused individuals who like being busy and working, so their social life probably won’t revolve around partying, drinking, and being merry, but rather around doing things around the home or going on shopping trips to buy things for their house. They like to be purposeful.
Long term potential and marriage
These two zodiac signs work very well together in a marriage. We’ve got the communication and friendship axis in sync. Sexually, they find each other exciting, and they are both fairly ambitious. When they are together, they have a helpful blend of emotional and intuitive understanding along with pragmatic, logical problem-solving.
Both astrology signs tend to be risk-averse and good with money, but neither are passive. Both have a sense of adventure because they both want to achieve and when there’s something they’ve got their minds set on, they will walk over broken glass to get it. This is a couple that, when the going gets tough, they get going. They’re incredibly determined and courageous together in overcoming obstacles, and that’s why they can be very successful in marriage.
It’s also possible for them to have fun and laugh together. While they aren’t a couple who will enjoy socialising with other couples and entertaining, they aren’t necessarily homebodies either. They enjoy being out and about, pursuing many new activities.
One of the problems in this cosmic relationship is that both can be inclined to be a little bit pessimistic at times. They both have anxiety and both can be worriers. When you have two people together who tend to overthink, sometimes the relationship can become very tense. So, they do need time apart, and they perhaps need other people in their life who can help inject a bit of positivity at times when they are both seeing the cup as half empty.
They need to work harder at giving each other a boost and being good cheerleaders. They must understand that they have the power to overcome anything, they just need a slightly more positive attitude when doing so.
Strengths and challenges of the relationship
Good communication and mutual respect are core to this relationship. They understand each other’s styles of communicating and both are inclined to be cooperative with each other. Even though both have a stubborn bent, when they’re together they tend to be more flexible, adaptable, and they’re more likely to see the bigger picture.
Both star signs can be reticent and cautious in relationships, and both have a vulnerable side. However, because they are fairly respectful of each other, and they are both quite private people, it’s unlikely that they’re going to tread on each other’s toes or cross red lines. They’re both very aware of each other’s boundaries, and they don’t naturally encroach upon or upset each other, which means Capricorn is less likely to be cold and cruel, and Scorpio are less likely to use their sting. As they feel comfortable together, they are less likely to use those very defensive mechanisms that they both possess.
Sexually, this cosmic relationship gets better and better. They are not zodiac signs that immediately want to rip each other’s clothes off, but as time goes on, they have such a strong sexual compatibility, and both of them have high levels of desire, meaning that they will be able to satisfy each other in terms of affection and physical satisfaction.
They just have to remember to incorporate some more games and fun in the bedroom and not become too routine.
One of the downsides is that this is a couple who can become slaves to work. They’re both perfectionists and very hardworking. Capricorn can be a workaholic and Scorpio becomes obsessed and doesn’t know when to quit. It can become a relationship that’s all work and no play, so it’s very important for them to know when to relax and give themselves a break.
They can also be too hard on themselves and don’t focus enough on their achievements. While they’re very good at focusing on external problems, if not much is going on in their life, they may turn against each other. They can go through long periods of difficulty in the relationship and, while neither will necessarily want to walk away, their innate doggedness and ego can mean that the relationship can hit a sticky patch – one which both are too proud to know how to get out of. That’s when they really need another person to intervene and shake them up.
Both these star signs are prone to being slightly pessimistic and negative. They both have an anxious streak in their nature, and it’s very important that one has a Leo rising, or a moon in Sagittarius placement, or maybe some Gemini, just to make sure that there is some light-hearted banter and humour to lighten the mood.
They’re good at making each other laugh, but sometimes their humour is a little bit dark. They can sometimes get gloomy and stuck in a rut, and it’s very important that they recognise when their life has become stale and a little bit negative and when they need to jump into a new phase or do something to break the deadlock.
Final verdict
A very promising astrology relationship with a 75% chance of success in the long term. Here we have two highly compatible individuals who communicate well and understand each other. These are determined, stoic, resilient characters with a huge amount of determination and, in Capricorn’s case, ambition.
What we have in Scorpio is someone that never gives up, and they are both loyal to a fault. They will both enjoy the finer things in life. Their love languages are gifting and affection, but communication happens to be really good when these two Sun signs come together as well.
Sexually, things improve over time, and this zodiac match is like a fine wine that gets better and better and better. The only problems are giving in to anxiety and pessimism, which can hold them back and make them too cautious. They need to maintain momentum and adventure in their life, and they need to know when they are both stuck in a rut.
This match needs to be cautious to keep ego and pride out of the picture; otherwise, arguments and disagreements can evolve into long periods of estrangement and hard feelings. This is a couple with an awful lot going for them, and they often need to focus more on their achievements and the positives rather than worrying about what may not be right, because they tend to overemphasise the problems.
Third decan Scorpios are best with Capricorn, and second decan Capricorn is best with Scorpio.
Any star sign match is, of course, modified greatly by the Ascendant, Moon, and Venus signs — which will give more bearing on affectionate, sexual, and spiritual compatibility.
