Compatibility
Libra and Capricorn
Libra wants a beautiful life. Capricorn wants a solid one, and has already drafted the floor plan.
Together
Both are cardinal signs, which means both want to lead, though neither would admit it. Libra leads by charm, Capricorn by structure. Venus meets Saturn, and at first it looks like a classic match - the elegant one and the serious one, both with excellent taste in coats.
The tension shows in the details. For Libra an evening should be pleasant. For Capricorn it should be useful. Each finds the other's priority slightly frivolous or slightly grim.
Love
Capricorn courts like a job interview and Libra, surprisingly, enjoys the formality. Both care about appearances, so the public life is impressive. In private, Libra wants affection shown and spoken, while Capricorn shows it by working late for the shared future. Libra feels neglected. Capricorn feels unappreciated. Neither raises it, because Libra avoids conflict and Capricorn avoids feelings.
Friendship
Better than expected. They share a love of good restaurants and dry gossip, and Capricorn's rare laugh is the one Libra works hardest for.
Work
Libra handles the people and Capricorn handles the plan, and on paper this is ideal. In practice Capricorn wants a decision by Friday and Libra wants one more conversation.
Where it breaks
Speed and warmth. Capricorn decides too fast for Libra, and Libra charms too much for Capricorn, who starts to wonder what all that charm is covering.
The frog's verdict
Two stars. Respect comes easily here, ease does not. Capricorn, leave work early once a week and spend the hour on nothing useful. Libra, pick the restaurant and do not revisit the choice.
