They have the grit and determination to see out a project or an objective, no matter how long it takes. They are surprisingly witty, when they allow themselves to be, although they’re not the fiery, flashy kind.

A Capricorn will always be on time, will always have positions of responsibility. They make good psychologists because of their ability to listen to short-tempered people or people on a rant.

They are deep thinkers who have good memories and a never-ending intellectual curiosity.  In their relationships, they can have a tendency towards unhappiness.

They detest rudeness, crudity, or conflict. Their immediate response to anything unpleasant is to dismiss it, or, if that is infeasible, at least to put it in the best light imaginable.

They try to encompass themselves with comfort and beauty within a serene and luxurious environment. Because they fancy beautiful things, Libra moons are happy to blow their money on objects that catch their attention.
