    Patient Astrologer Tara Divina says that “a Capricorn might be slower to make a move, take a little longer, contemplate it, plan it out a little more in advance versus being spontaneous.”

    That means that, in bed, Capricorns are all about the slow burn and savoring your time together. They get satisfaction from the process, not the destination.
  4. Astrologer Stina Garbis says that “Capricorn is not generally a ‘mushy’ sign, they are more practical about the people they love.” They don’t need grand displays of affection to prove you love them , and in fact prefer to give rather than receive.
  5. 5
    Physical Capricorns are all about physical sensations in bed. [3] They use touch to connect, and they savor those intimate moments of contact. Caressing, pushing, squeezing—they’re one of the more handsy signs, for sure.
  6. 6
    Choosy A Capricorn doesn’t let just anyone into their bed. Astrologer Stina Garbis says that they “do not socialize well outside of their few close companions, and they love these people dearly.”

    So if you find yourself in the sheets with a Capricorn, consider yourself one of a lucky few.

  1. Capricorns take pride in their appearance, and that includes that of their partners. They want to show you off when dating , and they can’t do that if their partner doesn’t put effort into how they look. They don’t need you in a cocktail dress or three-piece suit, per se, but it’d sure help.
  2. 2
    Laziness Capricorns are all about responsibility and punctuality. Astrologer Angel Eyedealism says, “If a date showed up an hour late, [Capricorns] would not have sex with them. They'd be like, I'm so offended by your lack of protocol.”
  3. 3
    Pushiness Astrologer Tara Divina says that with Capricorns, you need to have “patience for [them] to pursue [you] at [their] own pace, not expecting him to move at your pace.” If you push them, it’s more likely that they’ll bail altogether, rather than change themselves for you.
  4. If there’s one thing a Capricorn can’t stand, it’s a partner who needs constant access. Let them do their thing and trust that they’ll shower you with affection when the time is right.

    Astrologer Stina Garbis adds, “Try not to blow up [their] phone with extra long text messages.” Keep it touch-and-go, and give a Capricorn their space.
  5. 5
    Competition When a Capricorn likes you, you have their full attention. They want the same treatment from you. If your eyes wander, they’ll take note and dip without a moment’s hesitation. They’re in it for commitment and connection, not to play games.
  6. 6
    Drama Capricorns don’t have much time for other people’s baggage, and definitely not when it comes to the bedroom. Astrologer Stina Garbis says to “leave the drama at home with your friends, [and] try not to be overly dramatic to your Capricorn partner.”

Other Signs’ Sexual Compatibility with Capricorn

  1. Capricorns and Tauruses get along great in bed. Tauruses tend to open up under the generous and sensitive touch of a Capricorn, and this combination makes for steamy sexual chemistry. [15]
  2. 2
    Pisces Pisces and Capricorns are a great fit when things get frisky. Pisces’ laid-back flexibility complements Capricorn’s slow-going procedure. [6] What’s more, a Pisces easily sees what a Capricorn wants, and knows how to provide it.
  3. 3
    Virgo Capricorns and Virgos are on the same page in bed. Both like to take it slow, and the journey is more important than the destination. They’re thoughtful lovers to each other, and work as a team to find pleasure. [7]
  4. 4
    Cancer Both Capricorns and Cancers understand the need to get to know each other before things move to the bedroom. And if the talking stage goes well, so will the touching stage. Both are in it for connection and commitment, which makes for a powerful and passionate cocktail of emotions.
  5. Capricorns and Scorpios can both be too calculating for their own good. But once they figure each other out, their sexual chemistry skyrockets. For this pair, it’s all about communication and patience.
  6. 6
    Capricorn A pair of Capricorns can go either way. [8] Either there’s immediate understanding, recognition, and passion, or seeing each other is like looking into a mirror, and things get a little too familiar for comfort.
  7. 7
    Aquarius At the end of the day, Capricorns and Aquariuses have different sexual appetites. Aquarius is spontaneous; Capricorn is cool and steady. [9] Sometimes these opposites attract, but mostly they end up on far sides of the bed.
  8. 8
    Sagittarius Sagittarians and Capricorns aren’t the best sexual combo. For Sagittariuses, sex is often casual and no big deal, which clashes with Capricorn’s need for trust and commitment. It can work, but it’ll take some effort from both partners to understand each other. [10]
  9. Libras and Capricorns don’t make the best bedfellows. Libras see sex as a route to connection, while Capricorns see it as something that happens once a connection is made. These opposing views tend to cause some friction in the bedroom.
  10. 10
    Leo A Capricorn and Leo pairing is hit or miss. Leos are mushy and tender, and Capricorns prefer a more practical approach to sex. They often want the same thing—a deeper emotional connection—but go about it in different ways. [11]
  11. 11
    Aries Capricorns and Aries can make it work in bed, but they’re not the best fit. The problem is that they both want to be in charge, which can create obstacles or miscommunications. Often, the attraction is there, but the gears don’t quite fit together. [12]
  12. Capricorns and Geminis don’t make the best lovers for each other. Geminis like to move fast and talk through it, while a Capricorn prefers to go slow and let their body do the talking. It can work with lots of communication, but that’s likely what it’ll be—work.

      Tips

      • Astrologer Tara Divina reminds us that “each human being is completely individual and their sign gives only a tiny piece of the overall information about that person.” Someone’s sign doesn’t necessarily make them good or bad in bed!
