Cappies sign in.

[xmas74]

All the other sun signs are signing in. Let's prove that we Capricorns aren't quite so moody as everyone thinks!

I'm first decant-December 27th so I am supposed to be doubly moody (and a true Cappy).

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

1. Oh yes you are ! My mom is a Cappy - so moody !

But I still love ya ;)

[xmas74]

2. Thanks for the love.

Most of my friends call me bubbly and talkative. I do admit that some of that is an act so that people will not ask me too many questions (like my mother did when I was a child. She always told me to quit being so damn serious and start acting like other children!).
I know that a true Cappy is moody which makes it even harder for me to raise my daughter (a Gemini).

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

3. Yes my mom is the same way lol .

Acts bubbly so people won't ask her too many questions . I am a Virgo - almost an opposite .

[xmas74]

4. But we are in the same category, I think.

Both are Earth signs.
My mom, OTOH, is a cancer. It doesn't mix well. I think she can get too nosy about personal crap. And dad is a Archer (yep, Sagitarrius). Too flighty. And then there's my brother that I sometime want to kill (he's a Leo).
I'm surrounded by signs that have negative reactions to me!

[all.of.me]

6. i have a gemini daughter, too!

god, we are like night and day. she is so bubbly and superficial, i am deep and emotional. she thinks i am nuts. i think she is, well... a gemini. i also have an aries daughter! hahahahaha very funny.

[xmas74]

12. Sometimes it's a real pain!

It's funny because I had someone do our charts once. She told me that I was a Cap w/ Gemini rising and that my daughter was a Gemini w/ Cap rising.
We tend to clash now and she's only five! I am really not looking forward to her teen years.

[all.of.me]

57. ha!

my moon is in gemini, her rising is capricorn. my other daughter's moon is in capricorn, and their dad's sun is in capricorn, too. the coolest thing is that they are all conjunct (at the same degree). those kids were definitely meant to be here!

yes, the teen years are a struggle. she just turned 15. we butt heads constantly, more than usual. it'll be an interesting three more years through high school.

[xmas74]

58. That gives me no hope at all!

[all.of.me]

61. rofl!

well, don't give up. i think i have some karma with my mother, because she is a gemini, and we have never gotten along. i think a gemini daughter is my chance to right the wrongs. it's a challenge, though! enjoy your daughter while she is still sweet and innocent. my other daughter is 11 and just starting to become a young woman. i'm beginning to lose her, too, but i'm hanging on to what childhood she has left.

[xmas74]

63. My mother is a cancer.

This Gemini business must be a punishment.

[Tuesday_Morning]

72. Another Cap mother with a Gemini daughter here

She's Gemini sun and moon....never wants to sleep. Now she's 18 - about to go off to college.

Knowing a little astrology, knowing she's just "being Gemini" has made parenting a lot easier.

[xmas74]

74. I hope so.

My kid never wants to sleep either. And she can ask more questions than any other child I've ever seen. Plus, she's very social and one of the most highly persuasive (read: manipulative) children her teacher says that she has come across in years.

It is starting to frighten me.

[Lilyhoney]

28. My mom and sister are aries

and all we do is butt heads.

[Lilyhoney]

30. My aries sister married a capricorn.

I do not see happily ever after in their stars. I married a scorpio.
A sexy, serious, smart, dependable man.

[xmas74]

33. I normally love Scorpians

but came across a really bad one once. I dated him for six months. Big mistake for me.

[xmas74]

31. It's not fun.

I have a problem w/ most of my family. They think I take things too seriously (especially politics and social reform). They tend to be more about the idea that since they can't change anything then why try?

[Pool Hall Ace]

5. I'm a Capricorn.

But I can be pretty moody, though. :-) :hippie: :mad: :D ;( :spank: :bounce:

[xmas74]

10. So can I.

But we gotta look good in front of the others.

[Pool Hall Ace]

16. Oh yes, I know sometimes I gotta paste on my big ol' happy face !

[xmas74]

17. Same here.

Can't stand people asking me too many questions. I tend to be rather private (except for here, where I am a little bit more anonymous).

[Pool Hall Ace]

46. People don't usually ask me too many personal questions

which is great, but they do tell me to "smile" all the time.

Unfortunately, my natural look is more like a grimace, so I try to think of something funny so I can have a smile on my face.

[xmas74]

62. They always want to know what I am thinking at all times.

It makes me feel like a trained monkey.

[sundog]

7. i am far moodier than my astrological profile would have you believe

:P

[Beware the Beast Man]

8. If I recall, you and I share a birthday.

:hi: Jan. 8, right?

[sundog]

9. yup

but i'm moodier than you are :P

[xmas74]

11. You and me both.

[sundog]

38. i'm too moody to reply to this right now

:P

[xmas74]

40. I can't think.

My Gemini kid is jabbering away in my ear right now.
Her cheerfulness depresses me.

[sundog]

41. happiness is depressing isn't it?

:P

[xmas74]

42. It can be.

Or maybe it's just really annoying.

[sundog]

44. or maybe it's just frustrating and ambiguous

[xmas74]

45. very frustrating.

I try but I cannot understand such happiness that she has all the time.

[sundog]

48. i really

need to see this thread flame...

don't wanna be shown up by the other signs if ya know what i mean ;)

[xmas74]

49. There have to be other cappies on this board.

Where are they?

[sundog]

51. i don't care now

the thread flamed... my work here is done :P

[xmas74]

52. Time to let it die

unless one of the other signs tries to show us up again!

[sundog]

68. apparently not

:shrug:

:P

[xmas74]

70. I thought that it would die.

I put my daughter to bed and found that I had even more responses. Besides, virgos are well over 100.
We know that we are better than that.

[sundog]

73. post in my earth sign thread ya tramp

:D

dammit, air & fire are whipping our ass :P

[xmas74]

75. I'm there!

[flamingyouth]

13. You and I share a birthday!

:hi:

[xmas74]

18. Hi there!

You really understand the curse. We are way too close to the beginning of Capricorn to be anything else.

[Dave Reynolds]

14. I'm in,

January 19th, the tail-end of cappyhood.

I wish I could say I was not moody, but at least I'm a happy drunk!

:toast:

[xmas74]

19. Alcohol can help !

[scarlet_owl]

15. I'm a Capricorn on the cusp of aquarius.

[xmas74]

20. You're still one of us!

[bicentennial_baby]

21. December 29th

Oh, such a Capricorn am I...sigh.

[xmas74]

22. One of my closest friends has the same day.

My friend and I are less than two days apart (if you count the hours).

[Uncle Joe]

23. I AM NOT MOODY DAMN IT!!!!

:) :-( }( ;( :cry: }( :toast:

I do however have a dry sense of humor.

[xmas74]

24. So do I.

I've gotten in trouble for it-even on this board. Dry doesn't translate well on a message board. But it does help me understand why some find people like Bob Newhart to be hilarious.

[Uncle Joe]

35. I always liked Bob

If I had a triplet boys, I would probably name them all Daryl.:D

[xmas74]

36. But one of them should be Larry.

So that he can go around and introduce himself as "Hi, my name's Larry. This is my brother Darryl and this is my other brother Darryl."
Bob's being featured on my local PBS station all month long. It's been great.

[Uncle Joe]

37. You are correct, thanks for the reminder. n/t

[xmas74]

39. you're welcome.

And you must raise the kids on road kill. Remember, they used to serve it all the time.

[Uncle Joe]

43. Well we are in good shape here in Tennessee

It was made legal to eat road kill, a couple years back. This law was passed for the motorists that accidently hit a deer, before you could not eat it, now you can fire up the grill. Jay Leno wore us out on that one, personally I prefer sushi, but fish is much harder to hit with your car, the damn water keeps killing the engine.

[xmas74]

54. MO you can eat roadkill.

Some people, when they hit a deer, will call a homeless shelter or a church and donate the deer.
At least they put it to good use.

[GreenPartyVoter]

25. My hubby is one. And he IS moody. But that could just be because he's

got a lot of Scots in him.

[xmas74]

26. I have that problem too.

Part Scot,another part Irish and a little bit of Russian for good measure. Plus I'm a Cap.
Not a good combo. I tend to brood alot and then try to hide the brooding.

[GreenPartyVoter]

27. Hubby is Scots and English, I am Sottish, orange irish, german,

english, and some sort of prussian/hungarian thing.

Lots of melancholy goin on around in this house. *l*

[xmas74]

29. My daughter got my crap

and her father's German. She really got the short end of it all. Yet she is a Gemini-much cheerier than I am.

[GreenPartyVoter]

32. My kids didn't fall from the tree, I'm afaid. Two more moody celts.

[xmas74]

34. Sounds just as cheery as my family shindigs.

I'm moody and too involved in the world view. Other family members are just morbid (they talk about being raptured all the time).

Never cheery around my house when they all get together.

[AwakeAtLast]

47. Hello!!!

:hi:

January 11th. My husband's is January 10th, and boy, is he MOODY! Much more than I! ;)

[xmas74]

53. Two Caps!

We've been keeping the thread up long enough to make it flame and put the other signs to shame!

[xmas74]

50. kick for evenings!

[I Have A Dream]

55. I'm a Capricorn.

I've felt like an old person since I was a child. (I know that this is one of the traits of a Capricorn.) I'm not overly moody except when I don't eat on a regular basis; my family and friends have come to understand that they need to keep me fed! :)

Capricorn Sun - Scorpio rising - Scorpio Moon

:hi:

[xmas74]

59. hello!

Looks like Virgos are trying to take over the board.

[Tikki]

56. Mr. Tikki and our oldest adult son....Jan 3rd & 5th....

These two men are superb fathers.


Tikki

[xmas74]

60. Two more have signed in!

[Guaranteed]

64. Hey, you, Jimmy Buffett and my step-dad all have the same birthday.

SOLID Cap.

SOLID.

[xmas74]

66. Cool!

[Guaranteed]

65. My g/f wants to sign in.

She says she's not moody at all (and I tend to agree).

She's rock solid, corporate-style.

[xmas74]

67. She's welcome to join in!

[steely]

69. Too late to sign in?

I see after reading the posts here, that I share some (good and bad) traits - and I thought I was just plain crazy.

[xmas74]

71. Never too late!

[steely]

76. cool

Someday someone will have to clue me in on the cap/scorpio relationship thing - as it happens, Mrs. steely is a scorpio.

BTW - I like your avatar.

[xmas74]

77. Thank you!

And the relationship-it works like a moth (Cappie) to a flame (Scorpio). We tend to be dependable but they seem to draw us in. Sometimes it's positive, sometimes it's negative.

[steely]

78. egads - "tell me about it"

talk about moody - or maybe more precisely - tempermental - LOL
