When it comes to how two people connect, chemistry is arguably the most important factor — and one way to gauge the chemistry between them is through astrological compatibility.

Of course, there are tons of important things that dictate whether a relationship works or not, from life plans and communication skills to love languages. Even when looking at astrology alone, there are many important factors that go into assessing how two people will connect astrologically; however, comparing two people's sun signs can indicate a general camaraderie or frenemy vibe that describes how they align.

Capricorn, the Saturn-ruled cardinal earth sign, is future-oriented, which means that people with a Capricorn zodiac sign focus on making plans and aligning with the person they adore. Odds are, the Sea Goat (Cap's symbol or mascot, if you will) will make a proposal that may seem a matter of fact to ensure that both parties are being given the respect they deserve and that is mutually beneficial. They consider romance like a business project, allowing them to make concise and conscious decisions about the way they partner. They want their partner to be a team member and they need constant communication with their lover. That said, how compatible is Capricorn with every other zodiac sign?

Whether you're a Capricorn yourself or you're wondering how well you click with a Capricorn in your life, read on below to see how compatible each sign is with Capricorns.

Tensions rise when these two cardinal signs align. Aries, who is known to be somewhat hot-headed at times, clashes with Capricorn, who is harsh and reserved. Both like to take charge and control, which creates arguments over who is the leader of the two. And, there will be drama related to which zodiac sign takes the lead. If they learn to work cooperatively and find balance together, then this pairing can work well together.

Capricorn is a cardinal sign, which means that it's an initiator of the zodiac. Taurus is a fixed sign that makes it a doer, one who follows the rules. Both are earth signs, which allows them to feel confident in the material and physical plane. These two signs connect over the simple pleasures in life and encourage the other to take risks outside their comfort zone, as long as Taurus follows the rules of Capricorn.

Being the first zodiac sign of the winter season, Capricorn starts and revs up situations. On the opposite side, Gemini is known to finish things, due to the fact that it's a mutable sign and falls at the end of the spring season. They can accomplish many goals and offset challenges together if both zodiac signs encourage the other to succeed. Mutual motivation is key for both of these signs to thrive and grow in both their lives.

Opposites attract when these two cardinal signs come together. The caveat is that Cancer may be too emotional and temperamental for Capricorn who is rigid and austere. Finding an emotional middle ground will help this pairing thrive, as they're both sentimental and reflective. This will require the Sea Goat to open up more and the Crab to have patience. They can stand the test of time if they put the work into making the relationship work. (See: Guide to Astrological Sister Signs)

This is one of the least favorable pairings for Capricorn. The Sea Goat finds the Lion to be all over the place — basically, Leo is mostly all talk and no action — which frustrates Capricorn who likes to make matters come to full fruition. The vibe may be uncomfortable, as Leo forces Capricorn to evolve out of their firm standpoint and adhere to their views, which Capricorn won't stand for, really. TBH, it will make Capricorn rebel.

This earthy pair has a lot of fun together. In fact, the party won't ever stop when they hang out. Being that they are both earth signs, and like to be indulgent as well as decadent, they can take the celebration to the next level. But, when the vibe is chill, they are the other's support system. They will totally ensure that the other is being accountable, holding up to their responsibilities, and maintaining obligations.

There is a sense of usury between these two cardinal signs. Capricorn relies on the creative insights of Libra to elevate them towards professional greatness. Capricorn provides security and stability for Libra, which is why Libra will want to stay in the partnership — even if it's lacking passion. When they have nothing to give the other, the situationship fizzles and falls flat. Both easily walk away and move on to the next best thing.

Capricorn and Scorpio are sizzling hot together. Both have an extremely high sex drive, which means that they can spend days tangled in the sheets together. Not only will sensual sparks fly, but they share the same dark sense of humor, aren't afraid to get deep with each other, and push the other to excel at everything that they do (they both get the importance of hustling hard to attain greatness and success in life).

The cardinal sign Capricorn is often confused by Sagittarius's ability to change and mutability. The Sea Goat is down to take a firm stance on matters, while the Archer waffles on situations and doesn't commit to one way of thinking. The openness of Sagittarius will make Capricorn think twice before spending time with them, as the Sea Goat prefers to be private and away from the glare of the outside world that Sagittarius brings into its life.

When two Capricorns unite, they can take over the world and be each other's advisors. While they have a lot in common, they will also find that the things they like the least about themselves are being represented in their friend or partner. They won't like how thrifty the other is, which will create tense moments and eye rolls between the two, and they might find the other to be a curmudgeon and unwilling to let loose.

These two neighboring signs are extremely similar because they are both ruled by the dependable planet Saturn; they're both rational and independent. There are minor differences, such as the fact that Capricorn plays by the rules and Aquarius is rebellious. The Water Bearer can be fanatical and get on its soapbox to preach its views to the masses, while Capricorn hides away from the limelight and prefers to be on the sidelines instead of in the midst of all the action.

Capricorn and Pisces are intuitive, reflective, and nostalgic. They share a similar sentimentality when it comes to life, which will make them become quick and fast friends. Plus, they like to gossip and share the tea on everything and everyone that they know with each other — mostly because they can have a laugh and trust that the other won't repeat what's said in confidence. However, this relationship can get messy at the expense of others.

Aquarius: A Capricorn-Aquarius couple might appear too different, but a strong friendship can bring them together.

- This couple’s biggest challenge: clashing personality types.
- Positive aspects of this match: both signs give each other space in the relationship and they aren't overly dramatic. They don't struggle with communication, so this can be a very easy-going relationship.
2
Cancer: These opposing signs are really attracted to each other. Cancer is a water sign, so they're driven by the heart, not the mind like Capricorn. Capricorn will probably be drawn by Cancer's nurturing attitude and Cancer appreciates Capricorn's steady support. However, Cancer needs a lot more attention than Capricorn may be willing to give. They may be startled to find that Capricorn needs their own space.
- This couple’s biggest challenge: communicating emotions.

- Positive aspects of this match: Sagittarius can encourage Capricorn to loosen up and be more spontaneous while Capricorn helps to ground Sagittarius. This relationship can create personal growth for both signs.

Aries: A Capricorn-Aries relationship takes a lot of work. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, so they're hard-working and diligent. This means Capricorn's personality can sometimes clash with Aries who tends to be impulsive and passionate. Aries may find it hard to commit to the same project or partner for instance. In general, these two may struggle to find commonalities. Capricorn is reserved and loyal. Aries is courageous and self-centered.
- This couple’s biggest challenge: conflicting personalities.
- Positive aspects of this match: Aries can help Capricorn dream big while Capricorn gives Aries' life structure. These two do well when they've got a mutual project to plan and execute.

1
Gemini: These two have such different viewpoints that their relationship takes work. As an air sign, Gemini has a laid-back, go-with-the-flow mentality. This can rub Capricorn the wrong way. Capricorn respects rules and order, so they may feel alarmed at Gemini's breezy point of view. To make this relationship work, Gemini could offer the ideas while Capricorn provides the structure to get things done.
- This couple’s biggest challenge: clashing values.
- Positive aspects of this match: if these two value their differences, Gemini will enjoy Capricorn's stability. Capricorn can appreciate how Gemini helps them relax and enjoy life.
2
Leo: These two are both intelligent and confident, but their personalities clash. Capricorn is more reserved than bold, outgoing Leo. They see Leo as being too generous or even reckless at times. Leo probably thinks Capricorn is too frugal or cautious. These differences can cause arguments. However, if the two appreciate their differences, they're very loyal signs.[2]
- This couple’s biggest challenge: stubborn mindset and incompatible values.
- Positive aspects of this match: if these two merge their goals, they can accomplish a lot together. Leo brings the energy and enthusiasm while Capricorn puts in the hard work.
3
Libra: A Capricorn-Leo couple doesn't have much in common, so this relationship takes work. Libra is a lot more social than Capricorn and they're very diplomatic. Capricorn, on the other hand, keeps to their small social circle and can be very blunt. These personality clashes can be challenging.
- This couple’s biggest challenge: lack of connection or similar interests.
- Positive aspects of this match: when these two work on it, they can learn to appreciate their different viewpoints. Libra can appreciate Capricorn's perseverance and dedication while Capricorn could recognize that Libra always finds the beauty in life (thanks to Venus, Libra's ruling planet).
