i would very much welcome people's feeback on this combo too! :-o
what I can offer, though I'm basking in the murky lagoon of confusion, is that the combo has an opposites or 'complements'-attract thing going on, and the whole thing can get very fraught with unspoken emotion.
'Course I'm dealing with a Scorpio Sun / Capricorn moon MAN (with Aquarius rising), and I am a Pisces Sun / Pisces moon WOMAN with Aries rising (FUN!!!). Never thought I would be with or feel so strongly about a guy like him. We come from opposite worlds/subcultures, but we have the deep essential stuff in common.
Bottom line is I think he thinks he's stronger... because he's conversant in all the machinations of power and can execute them with missile-like precision... but at the end of the day... and deep down he knows... that the ultimate joke may be on him. And I think that's secretly why he remains intrigued by me and connected. We all need to hit rock bottom. I think this relationship is going to accomplish something like that. :-o ;-)
What Elizabeth posted on another thread is also very insightful:
"I've been wondering what the similarity was between the guys I was dating. I would only have an interest in Capricorn moons. All the other guys are too easily accessible, like they're too eager to get into a relationship. Which is a turn off for me. YES As for Capricorn moons, there's something solid and steady about their personalty. They know who they are and they won't jump through hoops to impress you~ which is respectable. However, they also won't show or tell me that they like me.. which is kind of cool~~ its like an arm's length cool. Which I like, it's kind of like a challenge and I respect their self-respect!!~~ Been talking to two Cap. moons and for some reason,, because they won't delve into emotions, I won't either and than we just linger on like that for months!! just sometimes talking on the phone~ sometimes seeing each other.. whatevers, it what's I want and need at this moment.. "
In my situation, the Scorpio sun / Capricorn moon actually makes it a point to talk about emotions -- i.e. ELICIT THEM FROM ME!!! -- so. I get to feeling sometimes that it's just another power trip. It may be the Cap moon that keeps him guarding his REAL emotion. He's been too shrewd to delve into his own true emotions on how he may feel about me (though sometimes I catch a glimpse of the inner storm raging on his face). I understand, it's actually good strategy on his end. Keeps me interested, doesn't it? :-o ;-) Can't really fault him! That's the Pisces in me! So. At least for right now, I'm ensnared. I want to surrender to him. I seem to keep waiting for 'something' to move inside him. He wants/needs this surrender too. I know prying him open ain't gonna work. I am simply focusing on being as centered as I can and completely open to and communicating with his beautiful core yet redirecting most of my energy to following my own goals and dreams.
It's such a transitional time in the world right now -- this era seems to be about learning how to let go and be in love at the same time. Loving this strongly without possession? That's the challenge in my world. God help me / us.

wow, I'm a little suprised by all I wrote. thanks Cherry for the space to brainstorm and get this off my chest.
