Astrology commentary: sparkling evaluation of leo and capricorn

Going beyond the often ridiculous prognostications of daily newspaper horoscopes, there is much more than you may think to be found in a genuine approach to astrology.

Here’s the beginner’s quick guide to astrology. Some signs are seen as ‘positive’, some ‘negative’, according to the elements: fire, earth, air or water. We can also say that some are ‘fixed’, others ‘cardinal', and some ‘mutable’, describing their quality, or how they respond to the circumstances they meet: resisting change, initiating change or influencing change. Further, each of the signs is said to have a ruler, its guiding planet that is thought to be the one that most deeply affects it.

When considering how two signs get along, called synastry by astrologers, these factors are primary. Two positive or two negative usually work very well, although the cross-mix can be something of a challenge at times, since extroverts and introverts have different needs and attitudes. For the qualities, we suggest that it is better if they are not the same; so for example mutable is better with either fixed or cardinal, especially if they are cross-mixed in their elements.

Leo is a positive fire sign of fixed quality, ruled by the Sun. Capricorn is a negative earth sign of cardinal quality, ruled by Saturn. So with the relationship between Leo and Capricorn we have positive and negative – which is sometimes quite challenging. and fixed with cardinal – which is a good sign. At first glance, therefore, all in all things look a bit mixed.

What does it mean when we say that Leo is ruled by the Sun? Capricorn is ruled by Saturn? What are rulerships? Well, leaving aside more esoteric wisdom, we can simply put that Leo easily exhibits the Sun’s qualities such as will, confidence and equanimity. Equally Capricorn has a more Saturn like manner of operation, showing sobriety, responsibility and structure.

The rulerships can give us a real clue as to how a couple will settle into the mutuality of expressing themselves. As he shows consciousness or heart, she responds with hardness or, as she might display essence then he could respond with tradition and humility – according to the situation and individuals involved. When things are working well, words like fulfilled, confident and wonderful may apply, and on a bad day it may be better to use descriptions like depressed, upset and displeased.

As a general rule, each will hope to receive from the other a way to express acceptance, inclusion, appreciation and confirmation that a positive contribution has been made. Also each of us needs a degree of autonomy and the integrity to live out our own values so we get a sense of authenticity and individuality.

To relate this to the 7 Words Self-Realization Method, we can say first that there are 7 primary words: no hello thanks goodbye please sorry and yes that together cover every aspect of life and - in this case - particularly relationship. When you know how to focus on them, everything can become a lot clearer. Typically Leo is expected to be a lot stronger with Thanks than they are with Sorry. Capricorn will probably shine with Please and be not so good with Yes.
