At your best, you two can find perfect, emotional harmony together. Scorpio, challenge your Capricorn partner to express their emotions—because though they're kept on the DL, complex feelings plague this Earth sign on the daily. Capricorn, keep Scorpio grounded. Remind them that their emotions can be deep and intense without needing to feel like the end of the world all the time.
- To connect emotionally, support each other’s ambitions. Show up for showcases, open mics, and award nights.
- Or, offer each other acts of service. Clean the kitchen, organize your closet, or bring them their lunch when they forget it at home.
- Communicate your admiration for each other constantly: "Your intelligence and resilience always floors me. I really admire you."

Cap may struggle to keep up with a Scorpio's passion. At your best, you two bring each other some well-needed balance. But if Scorpio feels they're lacking the intensity they crave, they may get restless. Scorpio, meet your Capricorn partner with understanding, patience, and perspective. Capricorn, in the ways you feel comfortable, initiate some emotional intimacy.
- Scorpio, reflect deeply on your partner's gestures. Offer Capricorn the benefit of the doubt. Some of their expressions of love may look different from yours.
- You may prefer to offer a partner serenades and shrines. But when a Capricorn takes out the garbage, that's like a little, "I love you."
- Cap, try to speak your partner's language. If getting super emotional seems too daunting, go for a grand gesture that you know they'll appreciate.
- Dedicate your next big accomplishment to Scorpio. Let them know that you couldn't have done it without them.

When you finally win each other’s trust, nothing is breaking this bond. Capricorn and Scorpio both have a deep-seated distrust in others. But on the flip side, when they do trust—there are no other signs in the zodiac as loyal as they are. Never underestimate your partner’s expectations in your relationship. Work at staying faithful, reliable, and honest. When you do that, you two will be in it for the long haul.
- Scorpio, earn Cap’s trust by never stepping on their toes. Show them that you’re always on their team, never fighting for the same crown.
- Capricorn, win Scorpio’s loyalty by protecting their secrets. Assume everything they share with you is completely confidential.
