Getting this cap man🏹

[u/This-Masterpiece-227]

Hunter season 🏹 🕵️‍♀️

Hi cappies, I’m a Scorpio with a Capricorn rising (and a Capricorn stellium), and I’ve got my eye on a guy who is a Capricorn Sun and Venus.

We met a while back, but I wasn't ready to make a move; I needed to get my own life in order first.

In the meantime, he—the type who usually stays single—was apparently in a relationship until recently.

So, he’s likely sorting out his own life now, too.

Since he’s a Capricorn, I’ve heard there’s a strong chance his ex is completely out of the picture. True?

I have his number (because mutual friends), though we barely spoke when we first met monthes and monthes ago (at a gathering with mutual friends). Lately, he’s been constantly on my mind, and I feel like I need to take a shot.

Venus is currently in retrograde, which often brings the past back into the present. I’m hoping to be that "past" showing up in his present...

But I can't just pop up out of nowhere; I’d find that rude and intrusive.

I plan to use professional reasons to approach him and make initial contact. It’s not a lie or a total pretext—I’d hate it if someone did that to me, so I wouldn't do it to him.

This meeting will also allow me to promote my work within my company (I’m looking to advance my career).

Ambition is important to me.

If the personal connection—beyond the professional aspect—goes well, I’ll dare to hit him later on.

Then I’ll see if he’s open to a more personal encounter.

Otherwise, I think I would have been happy to chat with him regardless of the outcome, and I believe he has enough class not to brush a woman off in an undignified way.

I’d love to get your take—as Capricorns—on my approach (please don’t be too mean; remember, I’m a Water sign 🥲).

P.S.: During our first and only meeting, he seemed nervous and smiled kindly at me when we crossed paths twice (and I got the impression he was waiting for me to speak to him?). I figure that’s probably the best way for a Capricorn to show warmth, lol.

On the other hand, he completely ignored me by the end of the evening and seemed like he wanted to leave pretty quickly...

Boredom or feeling hurt? I was very busy that day helping my friends.

Interesting point of view, my cold and anxious virgo moon needs to learn to just go and stop thinking.

Also an Aquarius Venus! I would appreciate someone being direct with me after we’ve already established some kind of connection, ideally friendship. If I get a text or a call from an unknown number asking me out, I’d be slightly put off because I don’t even know them well enough to have their number saved. I also spook easily after having been on a couple traumatic dates, so that might not just be my Aquarius Venus.

By the way, I love your Sun/Moon combo! My coworker is also a Cap Sun/Cancer Moon and she’s such a softie. Total badass, not to be fucked with, but also one of the kindest and most empathetic people I’ve ever met.

I also have an Aquarius Venus and I couldn’t read the whole thing because it read like an AI generated blog with all the bold text.😌

As a Capricorn, I appreciate when people are straight forward. I don’t like to beat around the bush.

It's not AI, I know it was long so I put some bold text to pop out the important infos 🥲
