There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to love, because everyone gives and receives love in different ways. Dr. Gary Chapman has theorized that there are five major love languages, and understanding these love languages can help us better care for the people in our lives.
Capricorn isn’t traditionally the most amorous sign, but they have big hearts underneath all that dry, dark humor.
So let’s take a look at the 5 love languages and how they show up for the Capricorn within you or your love life!
Sun: acts of service
Having a Capricorn Sun means that honesty, respect and loyalty are the foundation of their lives. Love is hard-earned if you set your sights on this earth sign because it takes a long time for them to open up and feel safe to express their feelings.
Because they are practical, love requires patience. Therefore, you should focus on standing up for your Capricorn lover diligently. The more you show up on time, help them (unasked because they’ll never ask), and do whatever you can to show them how much you support them, the more you’ll find your Capricorn Sun in excess. of tender love that they have been waiting to share with the right person.
To put this into practice you should pay close attention to your Capricorn lover. Try to help with a household chore that he/she doesn’t feel like doing or has trouble finding the time to do. They do the dishes, sweep the floor or fill their gas tank when it is almost empty.
Moon: quality time
A Capricorn moon is just a Scorpio moon in a tasteful blazer! What I mean is that this Earth moon is dark, reflective and – dare I say – more mysterious than their Water Moon bestie! This is because Capricorn moons are the last to wear their hearts on their sleeves, in fact, they have a surplus of walls around their hearts.
It won’t always be easy for your Capricorn moon lover to say exactly what they’re feeling, as Earth signs are more focused on the tangible world, so the best way to show how much you love them is to be physically there . The more quality time you spend together, the more this moon sign will feel safe, seen, and comfortable enough to fall in love.
To put this into practice start by proposing to hang out while working on different things at the same time. If your Capricorn Moon lover is in school and has to study a lot, suggest quiet dates when they are studying and you are reading or working on a hobby of your own. Capricorns love silence and productivity, so remember that quality time doesn’t have to mean socializing or doing an activity together!
Mercury: words of affirmation
Capricorn Mercury is known for being practical and pragmatic, so don’t expect a lot of flowery poems and romantic clichés to come out of their mouths, even when they are in the deepest love. In fact, being too cheesy will probably get them in pain, as Capricorn is an easily embarrassed sign (and what’s more embarrassing than being in love, honestly).
Still, words of affirmation are the most important love language for this earth sign Mercury, you just need to know the right words. To them, being truthful and honest is the sexiest thing you can bring to the table, so cut the fluff! Don’t be afraid to compliment them either, let your Capricorn Mercury lover know that you see how hard they work and are constantly amazed by them.
To put this into practice you’ll want to notice the little things. If your Capricorn lover has a good vocabulary, let him know that you admire it and find it sexy. If your Capricorn lover gets a raise at work, make sure you tell him how proud you are of him.
Venus: giving gifts
Any Venus sign will enjoy gift giving, but understanding your loved one’s Venus placement can help you better understand their relationship with receiving gifts, what types of gifts they want and how often they need them receive to feel your love.
A Capricorn-Venus person appreciates things that are high quality, well made and practical. They are more interested in timeless pieces that will last a lifetime, as opposed to gifts that are cheap or serve only one small purpose in life. They don’t need to be constantly showered with gifts because they don’t often need something new, but giving them the right gift at the right time creates a deep and meaningful love.
To put this into practice, pay close attention to the things in life that they miss. For example, they may complain that their favorite winter coat is starting to fall apart, so if you get them repaired or buy a replacement, you will not only get something they need, but also show them how much you care about the winter coat . needs of your partner.
Mars: physical affection
Capricorn Mars is used to being in charge of almost every aspect of their lives because they are ambitious and hardworking, so the trick to showing them love is to give them space to let go of control.
Sex plays an important role in every couple’s life, and understanding your partner’s Mars sign can help you both make the experience more fulfilling and loving. So for a Capricorn Mars, it’s all about power and control, and they’ll feel sexiest when someone else is taking control in the bedroom. This earth sign Mars is traditionally not big on PDA, so don’t try too hard to make physical affection a constant in your relationship, but instead focus on satisfying them completely in private.
To put this into practice you’ll want to have open and honest conversations about what you both like in bed, but Capricorn Mars people usually find the most satisfaction when they’re submissive. So let your Capricorn lover be in control everywhere except the bedroom!
