According to the myth, as the giant Typhoeus suddenly appeared on earth, he tried to make horrible efforts to tear Jupiter into pieces and turn him out of existence.

As it happened that Bacchus witnessed Typhoeus, he was feasting on the banks of the river Nile at that time. He didn't waste time and jumped into the river. As he did, the part of his body submerged in the river turned into that of a fish. The rest of the body turned a goat.

The moment Bacchus turned a sea goat; he could visualize what Typhoeus was going to do with Jupiter. He immediately blew a shrill note on his pipes. As Typhoeus heard the warning notes alerting Jupiter, he immediately fled out of the scene and hid himself in obscurity.

As a gesture of thanks, Jupiter placed the new sea goat shape of Bacchus as a constellation in the heavens. And the constellation has stayed there since antiquity.

This is how the Capricorn Mythology, i.e., the mythology of Capricorn the Sea Goat, 10th among 12 zodiac signs goes according to what the legend says. The constellation lies between those of Aquarius and Sagittarius low on the southern horizon.

They may be psychologically deprived, especially in their youth, keeping their feelings hidden inside for fear of rejection, and hence not being able to communicate openly. They send themselves to a self-created exile as far as their interaction with the opposite sex is concerned. They live in an emotional island where no one is there to give them company although their passion craves for one turning them ambitious in their attitude and cynical in behavior.

They may take their predicament as their destiny and decide to live a lonely life limited to their own self. Since they are faithful and loyal themselves, they just cannot stand betrayal of any sort and go extremely bitter over it. But as they grow older, they start rounding their sharp edges and start interacting more openly.

They live on extremes. Either they will have no concern, or they will go mad over something they don't find agreeable. They will either be reserved to the extent of being shy or they will just go over-frank with issues concerning sex. Since they may not get a spouse as honest as in their dreams, they may prefer staying unmarried all through their life. Women prefer to have their independent career rather than depending on the favor of a man. To some extent they are narcissistic in their attitude.

Loneliness and Solitude in life are the keywords for Capricorn in love governing their social life as well. When it comes to loving; Taurus, Virgo and Scorpio are the most favored signs for them. Gemini and Cancer should always be avoided, though in the final analysis the question of the best zodiac signs match for love horoscopes, as far as horoscope Capricorn is concerned, is best decided by their birth date horoscope only.

Romances are not on the card but a marriage between the two works almost wonders as per horoscope Capricorn relationships vis-à-vis Capricorn compatibility with 12 zodiac signs in compatibility horoscope.

Libra can very easily cast the spell of her/his magic charm on to Capricorn who unluckily very soon starts getting the grunt of the former's ego and feels suffocated in the relationship all through until she/he starts looking for other partners consciously or unconsciously. The marriage between the two is going to be an utter flop.

Scorpio are imaginative and innovative whereas Capricorn are systematic enough to turn these innovations into an ordered practicality.

Capricorn and Sagittarius are the two opposite ends of the personality spectrum, the former being excessively safety-conscious and the letter is fond of living on the edge as well as on the spur of the moment even to the extent of playing with dangers putting life in jeopardy often. The two simply cannot tolerate each other and marriage turns awfully unhappy.

The two Capricorns together though do not make it best of both the worlds, yet are able to create a safe and cozy island in the mid of the ocean that the wide horizons of life make it to be. Both are economical and future-oriented, hence even if not passionate, life goes pretty smooth for the two in marriage with each other as per horoscope Capricorn relationships vis-à-vis Capricorn compatibility with 12 zodiac signs in compatibility horoscope.

Aquarius love freedom and magic, Capricorn love predictability and practicality. Though not in love with each other, they can still be partners together if they take care for the other.

Pisces are loving-beings as well as willing to cooperate sincerely; hence Capricorn may remain happy with them. Though they are opposite in their personalities, the two have a tendency to cooperate in the walks of life that take them away from each other. If they work it prudently, both romance and marriage can prove to be a success as per horoscope Capricorn relationships vis-à-vis Capricorn compatibility with 12 zodiac signs in compatibility horoscope.

So Capricorn the Sea Goat ACTS!

Being a Cardinal earth sign ruled by Saturn, this 10th zodiac sign that the Capricorn are; they are to the point, laborious, action oriented, strategic, and target oriented people for whom the goal of their life whatever they have set it to be is the ultimate in importance.

If their authority is challenged, they are left with no feet to stand on, and fall down helpless as if they never had any spine to keep them erect on their own, alone. Social confirmation is the oxygen they need to keep themselves breathing in order to stay alive as a member of the society.

At their worst they are the biggest pessimists on earth who will see a shadow of doom even if they are sitting in the heaven. They are very rigid and over-cautious in their approach and hence find it very difficult to adjust to the new situations.
