Capricorns like gifts,
not gaudy and expensive but practical and useful. Keep it high class, they do
not like second-rate gifts.
A typical Capricorn has a practical, sober attitude to life. It's a work in
progress. They have a well developed sense of responsibility and are very
protective of their loved ones. It is tempting to show your Capricorn the
lighter side of life but do make sure that your gift is something that they will
value. Silly, jokey presents will disappoint. Consider practical presents with a
stylish edge. Gifts such as a bottle of champagne, whisky, or red wine, CD of
music from one of their favourite bands, onyx book ends or a weekend away
in the countryside will do nicely.
The Capricorn
personality is caught on the horns of a dilemma. On one hand they are motivated
and aspire to achieve success, radiating self-confidence. On the other hand they
posses a fatalistic introspection that saps their positive energy and can leave
them inhibited and depressed. Often a Capricorn judges himself or herself
according to other peoples' estimations. So one of the best gifts we can give a
Capricorn is to be a steady supportive friend and to let them know that we have
a high opinion of them. A heartfelt message on a birthday card, a friendship
bracelet or ring, invitation to dinner with friends, an inscription on a
bookmark in a book that we give them, or just sharing photos of you both will
tell a Capricorn that they are an important part of your life.
Capricorns are thought to be organised, ambitious people who strive for
perfection and
career success so giving an
organisational aid like a stylish laptop case, briefcase, engraved
business card case, leather portfolio, electronic
organiser, appointment book, or even an iPhone application to organise all their
iPhone applications can help keep the Capricorn in your life happy, powerful and
well organised they are tirelessly thinking about career opportunities.
Formal attire... Capricorn men can’t get enough of it! Don’t just buy him
cufflinks and ties but buy them for a forthcoming formal event – he is bound to
be attending a few during the course of any year. Buy him sports training
equipment and he’ll use it in a disciplined fashion for the rest of its life.
For the traditional and elegant Capricorn woman buy her a silk scarf or an
elegant pearl necklace. Flowers that will wilt, chocolates that will be
eaten, and exotic decorations that will be stored neatly in the attic are not
good options. She'll prefer expensive and traditional gifts that are practical
and will last and last. Brand names are unnecessary, in fact brand name goods
may even appear ridiculous and a waste to the practical Capricorn.
Capricorn's favourite colour is green. Like their gifts they prefer conservative
and tasteful gift wrapping with absolutely no glitter.
