Capricorns are a rare, protected species who shield themselves from the universe. Their brains are a da Vinci code- cryptic and complex. She is cryptic and complex. She is mysterious, yet lives for the moments she can be free. She walks on the wild side, but takes steps with a spunk of confidence.

Her steps are slow. She looks twice before crossing the street. Her face is slightly hidden from the world.

Her heart is slightly hidden from the world. She has a hard time showing her emotions. She believes that every break through, begins with a mild breakdown. However, she pushes through the pain. In fact, she suppresses the pain. A Capricorn prepares herself for disappointment- disappointment will never let you down. If you prepare yourself for the worst, there is no unknown factor.

Though she secretly hopes for the best, she feels content with pain. ​If you crack the heart of a Capricorn, you have surpassed the challenge of a rubix cube. You are twenty-first century rocket scientist.

She reveals herself to little.

A Capricorn struggles to find peace with her insecurities. She struggles to define her self-worth. To trust someone. Is unheard of. Vulnerabilities deem her weak.

Deep down, a Capricorn wants to be loved.

She wants someone to lift her off of her feet, and show her the world. Though she cloaks herself with a fallacious persona and carries a shield to protect her from the world, she desires love, affection and acceptance.

She wants to be held. She wants someone to kiss her forehead before she falls asleep.

She wants to love someone. She loves with passion. She believes it takes time to develop trust between two people. She is a light post standing in the sea. An eccentric composition of flesh and bones who believes in love at first sight and the unexpected magic of love and new beginnings.

Her love brings out the best in people.

She believes it is the little things that matter the most- small acts of kindness and affection. Though she might not always show her love, thoughtless deeds convey her thoughtfulness.

Her heart heals those who enter her life. She is lively and energetic. Her effortless presence heals a broken smile.

A Capricorn notices everything. She picks up on routine and schedules very easily. Her eyes cling to details and secrets within painted portraits.

She prioritizes her dreams and goals. She believes that with hard work comes success. She envisions her future while she lies in bed at night. An office overlooking the Manhattan skyline,

she dreams. Though her vision is often black and white, she analyzes in color. Her mind breaks down her day and the people in her life.

She cares for the people in her life. She sees secrets within other souls. She accepts the secrets she sees. People cling to her for help. They believe she is a soothing soul while seeking advice.

She is a strange soul of intimidating comfort. A confident, secret soul with a heart of gold.

Her head says make them fear you. Her heart says love me.
