The Capricorn Husband

December 22 to January I9

The Capricorn husband falls in readily enough with the domestic scheme, but adds little to its spiritual success. This type of man usually marries, but his reasons are supremely¹ selfish. Of course selfishness has been ascribed to plenty of other kinds of men, but the basic nature of Capricorn is selfish.

As husbands, these men are good providers, for they are ambitious and successful in business most of the time. They do not allow much freedom of action to their wives, so that even if there is plenty of money in the home, the wife is not free to spend it. A Capricorn husband is very dictatorial² as well as conservative, and lays down hard and fast rules for the spending of his money. In fact, the entire household is directed by this type of husband, to whom his wife is a lieutenant³. As a commanding officer he is exacting⁴, tyrannical, obstinate⁵, and unreasonable⁶, laying down laws for the family routine that may be in accordance with good discipline, but wholly unsympathetic to a happy home.

He is generally not a good emotional companion for his wife, having neither the ability nor the willingness to give even a part of himself to create an atmosphere of enjoyment, much less to add to the real pleasure of the moment. He demands that everything be given to him, and examines whatever he gets with caution and suspicion. He would never believe that some contribution from himself was necessary to heighten his own enjoyment, and he would never be willing to give of himself even if convinced. His passions are strong but quick and he considers them entirely⁷ animal, to be satisfied and disposed of without development or delicacy⁸.

Naturally the harsh tone that this birth figure casts over a personality is usually tempered by the other configurations⁹. In that case many of the sober Capricorn qualities are embellished¹⁰ by softer moods, making, of course, a much more agreeable person.
