MOON or VENUS in CAPRICORN

The type of woman who attracts you is socially acceptable and somewhat formal or aloof - and serious about success or status.

If she can boost your image or your career or finances, then likely she'll draw your interest - as may "Old Money" or OLDER women. As you get older yourself, you may be attracted to much YOUNGER women.

Powerful women or "executive" types also interest you; and it is important to you that you can regard your mate as competent and responsible and mature.

You are afraid of rejection, so may act rather shy or reserved - and can be drawn to a woman who is either equally reserved, or is willing to be assertive enough to take the emotional risks you can't take yourself.

You may appear to fear commitment, but what you really want is a very committed relationship with the right woman who will take commitment as seriously as you do - and you will wait as long as it takes until you are certain.  (continued)

The Sun Sign is what the average person answers when you ask "What's your sign?" - but the Moon Sign and Venus Sign are not known by the average person, and are quite complicated to determine. You will probably need to get a birth chart produced by an astrologer or computer program to find out the Moon Sign.

If Moon and Venus are in the same Sign, his attraction to that type is extra strong!

We can use those "cusp dates" for the Sun because our calendar was designed to conform to the apparent motion of the Sun. But the position of Venus does not conveniently match our calendar; so you'll have to look up its position on the exact month/day/year of birth from the listings in an astrological or naval "Ephemeris", or obtain a computer-calculated "natal horoscope chart" based on the birth data.

Before you look up your own Venus Sign, try an experiment by reading all twelve paragraphs and then choosing the one (other than the one for your Moon Sign, if you already know it) which best describes the second "type" of woman who attracts you. Is it the same "type" your Venus Sign predicts? Has your dating history included a significant number of partners who have that Venus Sign?   (continued)

NOTES TO WOMEN

(1) If a WOMAN reads these same descriptions which match her own Venus Sign, she may find some strong similarities between the traits men with that Venus Sign look for in a lover, and the ways she tends to express her own femininity. It is natural for a woman to quite unconsciously slip into a mode of expression matching her own Venus Sign "type" when she is in the presence of men she would like to attract or flirt with.

(2) If a WOMAN reads these same descriptions which match her own Moon Sign, she may find some strong similarities between these traits men of the same Moon Sign look for in a wife (or mother of their children), and the kind of man who makes her feel safe and secure and protected.

There is a good chance her own choice of mate will have similar qualities (or he may have his Sun in that Sign).

These "types" also come into play when a man is attracted in a platonic way to another man when he admires his "style" - how he expresses himself in his actions and appearance. (For a gay male, these "types" also apply to the type of man who attracts him.) Both men and women will likely find many of their most "comfortable" friends have the Sun in the same Sign as their own Moon. The Moon is about how you feel comfortable, safe, and secure in any close relationship; while Venus is more about how you give and receive affection; how you act to attract partners (as friends or lovers) or get attracted to them; and especially for men, it symbolizes the kind of person you view as your ideal lover.
