Wasn't it Kris Kristofferson who had a hit with "Jesus Was A Capricorn?" (I'd give myself a 2 for country music knowledge- maybe it was someone else.) I forget...anyway, I have trouble believing that an 'aquagoat' controls the destinies of people who happen to be born during these days...

UPDATE: Capricorn sign members are homicidal maniacs. Mao Tse Tung was born on December 26.

ORIGINAL COMMENT: I never knew any men who actually believed in astrology. The only time, in my experience, that men actually said they believed in astrology, was when they were trying to get laid!

but of course WE cappies RAAWK

I know tarot says this is the sign of the Devil but I don't belive such nonesense! my Grandpa's a Capricorn and he's wonderfull! and Goat's rock I mean capricorn's rock!

Anyone who judges anyone else by their astrological sign, is in serious need of medication, therapy or a better sex life.

Capricorns care about money a whole lot in fact money and "success" is their key to life. I seen them backstab their friends over stupid things at work. They may seem nice at first but their true nature is money and more money so it's like you're talking to a jew.

Loyal. Good home makers. Will never cheat unless they find out you are doing it to them, then the gloves are off. Very independent. They make good friends until you start confronting them about their faults, then they will become cold and may even sabatoge your reputation. Their spirit gets younger as they get older. When they are young, they are hardworking and conservative. The older they get, the less they focus on work & they more they master the art of relaxation and enjoying what they worked for. They will not stay with someone they consider a loser or a fool (someone who will embarrass them). They will stay with a person in power or affluence, but if betrayed, they will try to bring you down. They usually want you to work for them and praise them, may even expect to possess you but once you are trusted, you're golden and there's nothing they wouldn't do for you.

I met some capricons, and I was surprised to find out how selfish and coldhearted they are.

Your absolutely right! Capricorns (especially males) are real jerks. They will act so nice & helpful when you first meet them. But their true personalty is cruel and manipulative. At first, they will do you nice favors without you even asking. But later on they will be resentful and will always expect something in return. If you cross them, they will try to turn everyone against you and make up lies about you. I am a libra who was involved with a Capricorn for 6 years. He made it seem like no matter what I did wasn't good enough for him. Then he cheated on me with my friend (who is also a capricorn). I will never date or be friends with another Capricorn ever again.

ok u kno how they say leos and aries are the natural born leaders of the zodiac. well i think astrology is missing another leader of the zodiac and thats capricorn. i mean sure leos and aries are really outgoing and always full of energy but but capricorns lead in a cool collected way instead of yelling and using force and i think that a much better way to be a leader because knoone on this earth likes to be pushed around especially leos and aries because they are fire signs so they are very tempermental and forceful.so how can u tell me that a hardworking, loyal, motivated, determined, always climbing to the top capricorn isnt a leader. they say that capricorns are geniuses and are workaholics, doesnt that make them good leaders. im a capricorn myself and im always the ones taking charge and leading the way in any event or task and all my other capricorn friends feel that they are leaders too. i strongly believe that capricorn should be more recognized by there leadership abillitites.

They're a bit on the materialistic side.

capricorns are the best sign out there we are god signature. we help the sick, the weak, and the poor. we also feel others pain and have a great intution. we know how to make this society right, it was never right in the first place but we shed our sweet and blood to bring harmony to each others life.

I married a Capricorn, while he isn't perfect (because nobody is) he is perfect for me.

I have a Capricorn rising and I feel as if I am a Sun sign Capricorn. I have not met many Capricorns, but they few I've met I have found them to be hardworking but gloomy. They are old when young and young when old. It is true that a lot of responsibilities get tossed on us either because we are the oldest or because we are the only ones there willing to do the work our other relatives don't wish to do. We have a Cinderella complex with the exception that once a Capricorn overcomes their insecurities they are servants no more. Capricorns are very reliable, organized and deeply care for their families. They often times deny their own wishes and desires if their families would not approve of them or carry them out in private. We are hard to get to know, but that is because we are sensitive and require loyalty and love from the ones in our lives. Capricorns worry about everything and often feel like the sky is falling on them. But unlike Pisces, they don't sit around feeling sorry for themselves. They find a strength within to carry on and do what they must. They are also cut and dry when expressing themselves. Capricorns plans don't manifest right away unlike seemingly the speedier fire and air signs in the Zodiac. A Capricorn plans for the long term and whenever things are done like that they take longer and one has to go through many trials and tribulations until they succeed. They're also skeptics which makes them unlikely to get into any get rich quick schemes and actually believe they are succeeding until they have no choice but to accept the fruits of their labors. Some people mistake us for snobs and I have to disagree with that. Capricorns tend to have certain standards and morals where they judge things and people. Just because trends and people change doesn't mean we are going to follow jump on that bandwagon. Doing the right thing is always in style. We expect excellence from themselves and the ones around them. It is a compliacted sign to say the least. We make good friends, lovers and partners because we are consistent in our affections, keep confidences and are willing to make sacrifices for the ones we love. Once you get past our demeanor you'll see what you've been missing out on.

Most people with a Capricorn Sun should are blessed. Excellant position for Mars as well since it tames that malefic's angry influence.

Capricorn is the best, most dedicated sign of the zodiac! All hail the goat!

This is my favourate sign apart from myself: Taurus! :) These people are so damn funny and make really great dependable friends! They will never let you down, especially when your in trouble! I've known many Capricorns.. the males seem a little.. outthere.. but the woman, oh my, they are amazing! They are really strong and yet loving.. perfect mix! Some may see them as cold.. but are you forgetting that tail? There is hidden depths to this sign.. I admire them!

there ability to coldly reason, organize and their ambitions r amazing...however, why so negative? i mean being realistic doesnt mean always looking at the worst-case scenario, but litening it up a bit. u dont NOE ppl will react in that particular way...evryone's diff. sometimes u make it sound like there is no hope in this world at all (from ur obsession w saving money, being rigid, and being reputed) and we shud all just die. not most of the capricorns i noe initially fit this, but sumtimes if u look past their exterior, they all exhibit that. let urself b free and cheerful, cuz capricornians free has always bin fun.

Actually a warm and down-to-earth sign, Too cautious though and has to work for things to happen whereas a Leo clicks his fingers.

Capricorns are great. They understand pretty much every other signs efforts and frustrations because they've been there before. They are the masters of the Zodiac when it comes to success and protection of loved ones. Unless they had some really bad childhood experience they'll always be leaders and 'masters' to whom people will always ask for advice. Capricorns are respected because they respect others in the first place. And if you ever get caught by a Cap you'll know exactly why.

How do we know that Jesus was a Capricorn? I do know that the Marx Brothers, the Three Stooges(also known as the Scarletfeather Fan Club), the Four Tops, Simon and Garfunkel,and Sly and the Family Stone were all Capricorns.

Read two latest comments and was really suprised how many legendary people were born under this sign. Considering that Jesus Christ, Buddha, were Capricorns I have no any other choicejust-to rate it as a great sign!

The most outstanding people are Capricorns. Achievers of inexplicable degree and who stays in annals of history forever. If a Capricorn lives past the fifth year of life, he or she is likely to live longer than most other signs-- except for Leo and Sagittarius. In the early years there can be reserve and fragility, but ruled by tough Saturn, Capricorns learn to be state-of-the-art survivors. Most Capricorns 'begin' at fifty. Capricorn kids seem like small adults almost from birth. They have a no-nonsense way about them, and a somewhat disapproving demeanor that prompts others to indulge their needs. All of this changes abruptly when they enter school. Something about the Capricorn circumstances, or physical size, or manner, or something may prompt class mates to taunt or bully them. Most children face this but such abuses can throw Capricorns into a psychological pit. This forces them to develp their inherent humor, toughness, and intelligence. Ambition becomes a defiant need. Success is the survivor's revenge and at some point Capricorn 'must' succeed. The world is the better for it, because as Capricorns claw and climb out of their interior pit, they build mental and physical muscle.They focus and concentrate on the toe holds, crevices, and loose spots in the pit. They learn to be street smart and resolute. Later in life when Capricorns finally climb out of their pits, they realize with shock that their climb has only just begun, because they are surrounded by mountains that must be climbed in order to achieve safety, security and dominance. Enemies and competitors dog their steps. But they have learned not to fear. The pit forced them to develop hard bodies and mental muscle. They know how to climb, claw, scale, and outlast anyone. An astrologer once wrote:'Leos may be the presidents of the zodiac, and Cancerians, the Vice Presidents-- but it is the Capricorns they go to-in order to receive their pay'. Capricorns are authority figures and in their later years, they deserve to be. Their days in the pit taught them : As God is my witness, I will learn, study, apprentice, work ceaselessly, outlast anyone, to become an authority in my field. I'll show them I mean business. I will organize, create, administer, or do something so fine, so real, so durable, so useful and of such quality that the world will be at my feet for it'. When Capricorns arrive at the mountaintop, they contribute something lasting, practical, and powerful, and they usually do it with integrity, dignity and resolve. HERE ARE SOME CAPRICORNS: Read and weep: Martin Luther King, Jr.,Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Elvis Presley, Anthony Hopkins, Mel Gibson, Mary Tyler Moore, Kevin Costner, Ricky Martin, Dolly Parton, Naomi Judd, Anwar Sadat, Kahlil Gibran, George Balanchine, Aristotle Onassis, Robert E. Lee, Robert Duvall, Denzel Washington, Katie Couric, Diane Sawyer, Cokie Roberts, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Albert Schweitzer, J.R .Tolkien, Michael Shumacher, Louis Braille, Mohammed Ali,George Foreman George Fazier,Robert Joffrey, Alvin Ailey, Clara Barton,Elizabeth Arden,Janis Joplin, James Earl Jones,Cissie Spacek,Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, Louis Braille,Sir Isaac Newton,Johannes Kepler,Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Joan of Arc, Beethoven, Nostradamus, ..............

I think that Capricorn are one of the best people to be with just not saying that because I'm a Carpricon myself were goal getters and a great personality and true to are self and woman and don't give up know matter how hard it gets.

They like to be super observant, i dont know if there as anal as virgos but there up there.

Capricorn... where do i begin?? the one who wants to be so different from everyone else, and through thier practicailty move up in careers that everyone wants.. very confusing idividuals, who i think are confused by themselves. SOOO SENSITIVE, and yet so aware of other people that they become unsensitve to them.. they think they know more about other people than they do, and and this makes them judgmental, and with thier sarcastic view on life they seem to hold themselves higher than everyone else but have the lowest self confidence at the same time. Although they are very wonderful to talk to about deep intellectual things. also they are very passionate about thier own thoughts and intrests.. even though they shun the rest of the worlds petty concerns Capricorns are very confusing sensitve and intellectual people, they are strong willed, but judgmental. they try so hard to not be trendy while creating thier own group of non conformists.. very backwards. They also hold a lot of emotion but never let themselves show it.. i miss my friend who is a capricorn, i wish i could still talk to him the way i used to, but hes an ass, and a capricorn, so... enough said..

i think i love this sign cos my boyfriend is a capricorn. I think they are so fascinating and loving, maybe cold if they dont know you well but then they warm up. they are serious lovers and they are known to be good husbands heheheh

The list is probably a reflection of the birthdays of people using this website. Looks like Pisces outnumbers everybody else just a little at this moment.

this is hard for me to rate cuz one of my teacher's is a capricorn so i can't help wanting to write stingy asshole as a comment. but i know this girl who is really cool and she is a capricorn. i don't know enough people well enough to make a good conclusion.

Woo-hoo!! My sign is rated number one (at the moment). Just remember that your sun sign is only a fraction of your total astrological makeup, and there's other important factors to consider. So all you (fools) that think astrology isn't real just because the newspaper horoscope wasn't accurate, remember that it only took into account your sun sign, not all the houses and other planets, etc in your chart. They matter too. I have found astrology to be extremely accurate when used properly. Once you get beyond the pop culture stuff about astrology you'll find it's true. And besides, there's more extreme ideas out there, like, say...Christianity, Judaism. Islam, etc.

capricorns are not the best sign but they're def on the top and climbing there. Isn't what they do, always climbing to higher places. This is one of their best characteristics. They may seem cold and dull, but they're far from that. If you get to know them you'll discover what they're all about. Thy're driven and ambitious, never stand in their way. They always get what they want.

I am a capricorn, but i have to admit that i am not at all like one-probably because of my libra moon. But really! All of my capricornian friends are adventourous, fun and creative- not dull and pessimistic. So i think this signs stereotype should be turned around! YAY for all the non-capriconish capricorns out there!!!

My best friend and sister are capricorns. They have wonderful hard working personalities. The only bad things are they don't value friendships too much if it gets in the way of their success. HOWEVER they are very very honest. Great Sign

I don't get this rating the zodiac signs, but I do have an interest in them. All of us are unique, no matter what sign we were born under. So shouldn't each sign get 5 stars?. Capricorns have the reputation of being the hardest working and most conservative, but what I love about them is out of the blue they will start acting silly or out of character.

cappy are sweet- and yes they have faults- work way too hard...and they take a lot of work to make them feel comfortable. But I know a lot of cappies and theye are deeply sensitive - as long as they know they can trust you... you can have them eating out of the palm of your hand. Very down to earth, kindest people I know. BTW- my particular favorite cappy is 36D so definitely not flat chested.

Even though I'm a Capricorn, I'll be honest. It's not the best sign there is. I mean, Pisces is sweeter and Leo is more fun but Capricorns are hardworking and loyal. we often have problems with loneliness but are ambitious and commit easily. I enjoy being a Capricorn(there have been many great ones) but I'm not about to claim its the best. There's true greatness in diversity and that's what the zodiac provides us with.

Capricorn women are incredibly easy to read, its a shame. They truely get trapped in this cycle of behavior patterns and have no way out, which makes them semi-unattractive to the opposite sex. Most Capricorn women are flat chested. Damn, I feel sorry for the Capricorns.. they have almost no hope.

capricorns tend to think extremely highly of themselves (see 'prettyvictorian' - heck, even their screen name gives them away!). They feel the need to call down all others, in a lame and insecure attempt at puffing themselves up, like a constipated blowfish. (again, see 'prettyvictorian', and their brilliant insights about the other astrological signs.)

It seems the majority of the most important men in my life are Capricorns, and every single one of them I love so much. They are loyal, hardworking, great guys. I have probably met a female Capricorn before, but never realized it. Considering the track record of male Capricorns, I am sure they are great people, too ! Overall, Capricorns are probably the 2nd best Zodiac sign. Go Capricorns ! :) PS* I love you Beau !

I married 2 Capricorn women both were opportunistic self centered @$#% My current wife, a Gemini was married previously to a Capricorn as well she feels the same. My observation is that they love to be the center of attention and will stab their Co-workers in the back in a heartbeat to get ahead. They are very gifted at talking the talk but cant walk the walk

I've never met a Capricorn that wasn't a backstabbing cheat or liar. They do whatever they can to get their way. They are self-centered, evil, and enjoy taking advantage of others. Beware!

Dull dull dull!

Watcha! do not under rate my zodiac sign!

Capricorn are ment to be rational, scientific and intelligent. If you are these thing then you will agree with me that astrology dosn't work, it has been scientifically disproven (more than 90% of the horoscope has). It's illogical.

Like I said about Cancer... Although my asc. and moon signs are in Cancer. My sun sign is in Capricorn. Although Capricorns are the under dogs of the Zodiac, being proclaimed as prude, bias and hard cored... We are also excellent at our jobs, striving to get ahead, and are loyal. Since when has independance became such a bad trait! hehehe

Capricorns are down-to-earth, loving, genuine, intelligent, creative, faithful and ambitious people. Most Capricorns have beautiful personalities and are hard to forget, if you really get to them.

I LOVE capricorns !!! I'm a cancer/leo but don't feel life neither of those :) I love that capricorns are willing to make a committment to one person..I LOVE IT! when they touch, they explore...I love their creativity, the way they talk. I know it sounds weird but almost all the guys i dated've been capricorns. I love you guys :)

Although characteristics vary with rising and moon signs, all Capricorns are basically geniuses. I am a Capricorn myself, and I find it a blessing... heh, just joking. Capricorn is the best in my opinion because they work for what they believe in, are solid to their beliefs, and are extremely powerful, just to name a few things. I know two other Capricorns and they both fit this description. I am not trying to stereotype but I am just speaking in terms of the Capricorns I know, and from personal experience since I am one. While combinging maturity with brilliance and creativity, Capricorns exceed all expectations. The only drawback to being a Capricorn, is we are so damn slow. I do not mind though, I am glad to be a Capricorn.

Good qualities: hardworking, ambitious, honest Bad qualities: materialistic, limited,manipulative Best careers: anything they desire! & also science Famous Caps: Mary Tyler Moore, Louis Pastuer Jim Carey,Mark Messier, Nicolas Cage

Serious, quiet and calm like they are, they take themselves and everyone else seriously. The Capricorn doesn't say more than what is neccessary and that makes them seem secretive. They are very strong on traditions and conserveratism and most of all wants to stick to what has been. Because they want control over everything they do they like having well worked out routines to stick to. The Capricorn can be unsemtimental and realistic. Feelings are not something they wish to express. And because they clam up their emotions people might get the impression that they are cold and insensitive but they can be incredibly loyal and loving towards those they care about. However they have difficultsy trusting others and do tend to keep their eyes wide open. What ever they do they work hard. The Capricorn take their time and never rushes through anything. They have a good judgement and a common sense. No one thinks with as much logic and are as good at solving problems then they do. Their self dicipline and efficiancy usually give them succes, even if it takes a while. They seem quiet but are really ambitious and can elbow their way to the top if they feel like it. Prestige and power means a lot to the Capricorn, who stands up for their right. Even if they are serious at mind they have a great dry humour, when they want to let it out that is. Some famous Capricorns are: Mao Tse Tung, Nostradamus, Isaac Newton, Richard Nixon, David Bowie, Muhammed Ali, Benjamine Franklin, Howard Hughes, Joan of Arc, Martin Luther King, Elvis Presley and Joseph Stalin.
