Capricorn Man & Aries Woman Compatibility: Perfect Match?

A Capricorn man and an Aries woman are opposites in almost every way, but sometimes, opposites attract and work well as a couple.

But are these two signs too different to get along, or do their dissimilarities balance each other perfectly?

Once you know what these signs look for in a relationship and how they express love, you will know whether or not Aries and Capricorn are a good match.

Friendship

Although an Aries and Capricorn friendship is unlikely, this is perhaps the best type of relationship these two signs can hope to have.

A Capricorn and Aries friendship has to be based on mutual respect and admiration because it can’t be based on similarities.

The only thing that Aries and Capricorn have in common is that they are both cardinal signs. Every zodiac sign has one of three modalities: cardinal, fixed, or mutable.

Cardinal signs are action-oriented and innovative. They are natural leaders and skilled at tackling challenges and overcoming obstacles.

The typical Aries and Capricorn compatibility is best suited for friendship or perhaps coworkers because if these two signs join forces, there is nothing they can’t accomplish together.

They make quite a powerful duo as they are both ambitious and determined to succeed, although the types of goals they have are usually very different.

A Capricorn man is motivated by money and social status. He cares deeply about what other people think of him, and his dream is to achieve financial success.

An Aries woman is similarly ambitious, but Aries is a very physical sign so her goals are probably more related to health and fitness than her career.

She is also an independent thinker and doesn’t place a lot of value on other people’s opinions, so she’s not as concerned with outside expectations as a Capricorn man is.

Other than their shared ambition and determination, each of these signs possesses the traits that the other lacks.

A Capricorn man is patient, steady, and stoic, while an Aries woman is impulsive, unpredictable, and mercurial.

If they can get over their many differences, there is so much that an Aries and a Capricorn can both gain from a friendship.

The Capricorn man could help an Aries woman slow down and make careful plans, while an Aries could teach a Capricorn to loosen up and relinquish some control.

But it’s more likely that their vastly dissimilar personalities will only cause arguments and disagreements, preventing these two zodiac signs from ever becoming close friends.

Relationship

Just as there is little hope for a friendship between a Capricorn man and an Aries woman, a romantic relationship is also likely to be unsuccessful.

A Capricorn and Aries relationship will be full of tension and misunderstandings because these two signs have almost nothing in common.

Sometimes, opposites can attract and balance each other out; but when it comes to an Aries and a Capricorn, these two signs definitely repel.

When a Capricorn dates a woman, he likes to take his time getting to know her before making any commitments.

It’s not that he’s afraid of settling down with someone; in fact, he is secretly quite romantic and can’t wait to find his perfect match.

But he takes commitment very seriously, so he won’t be in a monogamous relationship with a woman unless he knows everything about her and believes that she could be his soulmate.

A Capricorn’s compatibility with any woman is dependent on her patience and ability to wait for him to make up his mind about her.

An Aries woman, on the other hand, is passionate and impulsive. Although she is very independent and content being alone, she jumps into relationships quickly when she finds a man she likes.

She is happy being single and playing the field, but when she meets a guy that really impresses her, she expects a commitment from him right away.

Capricorn and Aries have such dissimilar approaches to dating and relationships that they are unlikely to ever make it past the first date.

At their first meeting, a Capricorn man will be overwhelmed by an Aries woman’s bold and vibrant personality. He will think she is too dramatic and loud for his tastes.

The Aries woman will find conversation with a Capricorn man dull and uninspiring, and she will know that she needs a more enthusiastic, emotional partner.

The Aries woman will be an open book and tell the Capricorn guy everything about herself on the first date, leaving nothing to the imagination.

The Capricorn man will be quiet and reserved, and the Aries woman will wonder why she’s the one doing all the talking on the date.

Marriage

An Aries woman and a Capricorn man are unlikely to have a long-term relationship, much less make it down the aisle together.

But if they somehow end up exchanging vows, an Aries and Capricorn marriage is unlikely to last.

The dynamic between Aries and Capricorn is probably best explained by their zodiac signs’ natural elements. Each zodiac sign belongs to one of the four natural elements: fire, air, water, or earth.

A sign’s natural element tells us about that sign’s personality and values. It also gives us some idea of how that sign gets along with the rest of the zodiac.

Capricorn is an earth sign, and earth signs are typically practical, rational, and down-to-earth. Aries is a fire sign, and fire signs are usually passionate, energetic, and temperamental.

You can predict the compatibility of two signs by considering their natural elements and how they interact. Fire and earth signs typically aren’t compatible because fire scorches earth and earth smothers fire.

An Aries woman is brave, feisty, and a child at heart. A Capricorn man is a reserved, conservative old soul. They have about as much in common as a rock and a flame.

An Aries woman’s wild mood swings and forceful personality turn off a Capricorn man, while a Capricorn guy’s predictability and caution are annoying to an Aries lady.

Instead of learning from one another and trying to absorb the qualities they each lack, this couple is more likely to engage in power struggles and try to bend each other to their will.

Neither partner will ever fully understand the other, making them both feel isolated and resentful. It’s sad because they both want to love each other and be loved, but they can’t quite figure out how.

No matter how strong their feelings are for each other, they will both see that they are much more compatible with other people (belonging to different zodiac signs).

A Capricorn man is incredibly stubborn, and when he falls in love with someone, it’s hard for him to fall back out again.

Despite his practical nature, he will probably be the one who clings to the relationship and won’t want to separate.

Although she is the more passionate one and typically driven by her emotions rather than reason, an Aries woman won’t stay in an unhappy marriage. She will have to be the one to initiate a separation.

In Bed

Since they are so incompatible in almost every other way, it should come as no surprise that a Capricorn man and an Aries woman aren’t sexually compatible, either.

An Aries and Capricorn in bed together will feel confused and unfulfilled by their sexual encounter.

The only things that this couple has going for them is trust and honesty. They are both brutally honest signs and will be truthful about what is and isn’t working for them in bed.

A Capricorn man needs trust to open up sexually to a partner, and an Aries woman is so frank and forthcoming that he knows she will always tell him the truth.

The sexual compatibility of these two signs can be illustrated by their guiding planets. Each zodiac sign has a ruling celestial body that tells us something important about that sign.

Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of war, passion, and aggression. Capricorn is governed by Saturn, the planet of karma, restriction, and responsibility.

When it comes to sex, an Aries woman prefers hot, animalistic, ardent intimacy. She likes to resolve arguments by taking out her aggression in the bedroom.

A Capricorn man is cold and calculated, and he likes a more refined, traditional version of sex.

While they both view sex as a physical necessity, the Capricorn man will easily restrain himself until he finds the right partner while an Aries woman leaves a trail of discarded lovers in her wake.

An Aries woman wants an insatiable sex partner who can’t get enough of her. She wants to be swept off of her feet, and she likes quick, rough sex.

A Capricorn man is much more sensual and enjoys slow, languorous sex. He likes to take his time and stimulate all of the senses.

As much as they will both want to please each other, their tastes and preferences are just too different for them to have the fulfilling sex life that they both deserve.

They should find other bed partners whose needs and desires align more closely with their own.
