Spoiled? Well, not really, I mean, I love animals and to not have one would just devastate me. I never owned my own horse, but I had friends that did and I went riding often. My Leo dude has two horses and his mother breeds quarter horses and my uncles breeds some of the best Paint Horses around. I am waiting for two of his paints to come of age so that I can make a bid on them. He keeps them of for at least 3-5 years to get to know their temperment before selling them to qualified owners. I do feel a strong connection to horses and always have since I was just a peewee saggie.

Anyway, yes, I must agree that most Leo's have great rear ends. Nice and supple, none of those buttless wonders in that catagory (unless astrologically afflicted). I am drawn to eyes and the mouth first, then the butt...I like a man with good thighs too.

Now, the Virgo I was with had no butt. He had beautiful long legs and a great smile and eyes, but nooooooooo butt.

That's why a true "lady" back in the day had to ride side-saddle, with both legs together, off to a side...

And for the "women" that rode horses like men, despite social norms, they had this leather strip, kinda like a reverse thong, that was worn under their pants to cover their "love button" and vulva, in hopes of "dampening" the sensations...

Apparently, whether they wanted a sensation or not, riding the saddle/horse tickled it out of them...

I think that's really cool you feel a connection with horses, you being a Sag and all...

My bestfriend Sag LOVES animals! Of all shapes & sizes... and he's the only one who can handle my Aries homie's snake without getting bit! Go figure...

For me, if a lady doesn't have a suitable derrier then there is a very slim chance of me pursuing too... I would think the same would apply to women...

I guess if has to do with the booty housing the genitals, kinda like a treasure chest... and that's why men are so infatuated with it

...another great tidbit from college...

Hmmm, well I come from a people that rode bareback and I am sure I would have been rebelling against the norm. Hmmm, I can be a lady, but when it comes to riding, I need the freedom.

Have you ever heard of Lozen of the Apache tribe. She was Membreno Apache, Victorio's sister and the best damn horse rider around. They said she had a connection to horses that allowed her to whisper them away from even the calvery. She could sneak up into her enemies camp, throw the mock bridle on the horses, without them even making a sound. Then, at dawn, she would Yip real loud and ride away with the lot of them. Even the ones not tied to her, would follow.

She would tuck her hair up, pull up her deerskin skirt and hop on the horse like a guy, but she was also supposed to be one hell of a beauty and one hell of a warrior. She was the only woman allowed to sit in and contribute during tribal meetings.

So,I hope that I have somehow inherited her spirit and way with horses!!!

If you are looking for a relationship that is safe, with no nasty surprises, if you are looking for someone reliable and predictable, someone who will not lightly cast you aside for another, someone who will be loyal and will not hear of others criticizing you (though that someone may periodically put the boot into you themselves), Mr. or Ms. Taurus could be your ideal companion.

It goes on…

How to Interest a Taurus

Key Tactic: Find out what their values are and mirror them.

Taureans don’t believe opposites attract. They expect their partner to share their values, their tastes, their opinions, their hobbies. Find out what they believe in and, as much is honestly possible, agree with them.

It goes on ….

What to give them: If possible, find out about some favorite thing of theirs that has finally worn out after decades of use and buy them one exactly the same (or as near as possible).

Gives more ideas… plus the Suggest Opening Line, What to talk about and Where to take them.

How to Seduce a Taurus

Key Tactic: The way to a Taurean’s sexual organs is through the stomach.

I’m going to pull a paragraph.

You shouldn’t be aiming to overexcite your Taurean. Rather, your aim has to be to make them feel safe. You need to get them mellow, make them confident that you are not going to do anything at all unorthodox or wild.

I don’t know much about Taurus in this area… so again, I’ll pull the first seduction tip

Seduction 1: The Nudist

Nudity is a big turn-on for Taureans. They like flesh.
And they like to know what they are getting into! They don’t like surprise packages. They like to check you over before it’s too late.
Don’t worry if you don’t have the greatest body in the civilized world. They just like bodies. They are not usually into erotic underwear or striptease or slowly undressing you—they are into flesh, nudity and getting it off. Being confronted with naked flesh is a major form of Taurean foreplay.

The challenge, then, is to find a legitimate, wholesome way to get your gear off—and, even better, to get both of you naked, simultaneously.

Sex with a Taurus

(again .. brief)

Your earthier Taurean is not usually interested in exploring your entire repertoire of coital positions. They admire staying power and reliability. So long as you can keep working away for half an hour in the one position, that’s just fine. If you can’t, try a Gemini. Once a Taurean discovers a sexual position that really works for them, they are not generally interested in researching the rest of the Kama Sutra.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Taurus

Memorize this irregular verb: I am strong-willed, you are stubborn, he is pig-headed. All three of these people are Taureans.

(more in depth)

Must Do’s

Feed them

No-No’s

Never try to change them, even in small ways

How to End a Relationship with a Taurus

If your relationship is rocky, you’ll never get a Taurean to go to counseling or read self-help books. If the ongoingness of the relationship relies on their changing, the relationship is doomed. It’s time to abandon ship.

The Lure of a Gemini

They bounce into the room already talking before the door opens. Their eyes sparkle as they tell you about their day, the class they just started and oh, how are you and where did you get that great shirt and how much did it cost and have you seen that new movie yet why don’t we catch it later no I think I’d rather --- that book looks interesting, can I borrow—oh, can I use your phone, I just need to make a quick—

You’ve just been hooked by the sparkle, vivacity and energy of a Gemini. If you’re a refugee from a predictable, humdrum existence, Gemini is for you.

How to Interest a Gemini

Key Tactic: You must quickly—indeed, immediately—establish yourself as on of the most mentally stimulating people they’ve ever met.

(Pulling a small bit)

Be prepared to be intellectually tested. Their biggest insult is to accuse someone of having a mediocre mind. They equate this with being sexually mediocre. If they suspect that you are even a little bit of a dullard, you’re not going to make it to first base.

What to give them: new releases, anything to do with communication—answering machine, cell phone

*One thing I've wondered though... I'm not that great in the communication department. How do I seem to manage to slide by on that one?*

How to Seduce a Gemini

“If it were done when ‘tis done, then ‘twere well it were done quickly”. Carpe diem. Seize the day. Not just the day – the hour, the minute, the second. If you don’t, in a heartbeat it can be gone forever. If a Gemini wants you, grab them now.

If you are out with a Gemini on the first date, throw away the book of rules. Forget rules like: I don’t go to bed on the first date, it has to happen in private, it has to be in bed….

Etc… it goes on

I’m going to use one of the Seduction tips given that has worked for me

Seduction 6: Seduction by Curiosity

Many possible seductions are included in this category. But they all involve tapping into the huge Gemini propensity for curiosity. Straight to the gonads via the frontal lobe.

Most Geminis will admit that they had sex with at least one person just out of curiosity. How you pull off Seduction by Curiosity will depend on what physical and technical delights you use to intrigue them.

Remember, you can be daring and brash—they like that sort of thing.

You could try one of the following:
“Wouldn’t you like to stop fantasizing and get down to the real thing”?

“I read somewhere (i.e. this book) that Geminis mentally undress people they are attracted to and sexually test-drive them in their mind. Have you run me through yet? How did I rate? Wouldn’t you like to find out for real”?

Sex with a Gemini

A fling with a Gemini could be a veritable laboratory of sexual experiments.

Geminis have probably already thought of everything you’ve ever thought of. Quite likely they have tried a few more things than you’d suspect. Perhaps they may even teach you a thing or two. They have a reputation for trying anything at least once Let your imagination go and you might find that your Gemini got there first.

Also says they like to be visually stimulated and mirrors are a plus! Oh yeah… good with their hands too.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Gemini

They have a saying in Melbourne, Australia, “If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes.” This saying applies par excellence to Geminis. If you don’t like a Gemini’s mood, wait five minutes.

That is so true!

Must Do’s

Surprise them with genuine surprises. No hints.

No-No’s

Grossness

How to End a Relationship with a Gemini

Geminis frequently end up friends with their ex lovers. You might just be honest with them. Say that you are burned out, that you need to be alone for a while.

NOTE: The book goes into further detail… I’ve found it to be quite accurate on the guys in this sign! Wew-hoo!

No, I didn’t make that up for the Geminis. Although, I’ve used that one before I ever got this book It works!

The Lure of Cancer

If you are suffering from a deficiency of mothering—perhaps your sexual self-esteem (if not your actual gonads) has been pulverized by a Scorpio, perhaps your bank account has been shredded by a Leo, perhaps you have been run ragged by a Gemini—then comforting, domestic Mr. or Ms. Cancer may be the soothing balm you need.

How to Interest a Cancer

Key Tactic:
1. Get them to mother you; and/or

2. You mother them

Cancerians love to be fussed over and spoiled—and they like to do the same for others.

One ploy for gaining Cancerian interest is to expose your wounded, tragic soul. Reveal how your past partners have cruelly broken your tender, vulnerable heart. Bare your soul and show them your emotional bruises.

What to give them: Teddy bears, novels, a kitten or puppy

How to Seduce a Cancer
(I’m pulling a paragraph-not necessarily in order which is written)

Cancerians are great cuddlers. So it’s lots of cuddling at the early stages—but no sexual maurauding. This isn’t an Aries you’re dealing with. Cancerians need to feel safe and secure. They need to be gently guided into sexual union.

Says that both sexes like breast involvement.

Again… I don’t know much about a Cancer, so I’ll pull the first Seduction

Seduction 1: The Intimate Evening for Two

Plan an archetypal romantic dinner at home.
Make your first move during the coffee on the sofa—preferably in front of a fire warm enough to encourage the discarding of jackets, sweaters, etc.

Cancerians are touchy-feely, so the idea is to move them toward a situation where this is easy. Consider slow dancing cheek to cheek: set the CD player going, reach for their hand, pull them close. If they mold against your body nicely, your chances are good.

(pulling paragraph)
Sex with a Cancer

Think tactile. Cancerians love the soft touch. Give them massages ranging from the theraputic to the erotic.

The Cancerian is not naturally a sexual adventurer or an experimenter. However, they are easily influenced.

They are famous groaners and squelers—as anyone who has heard them eating will testify. This tendency toward vocalization during sex should be encouraged, as it helps to bring the animal out of the shell.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Cancer

The hardest thing to cope with in a relationship with a Cancerian is moodiness. Traditionally Cancer is the moodiest of all signs. Observe the Moon, see how it waxes and wanes. Cancerians are ruled by the Moon and their moods wax and wane accordingly.

Always keep you antenna up. Learn the signs that reveal when their mood is about to change. If they are in a mood, tread carefully and wait.

Must Do’s

Ask after their family

No-No’s

Never let them know you hate children
How to End a Relationship with a Cancer

How to end a relationship with a cancer?
Carefully.

You can expect big emotional scenes. You’ve become a part of the domestic furniture. They will see your departure as removing part of their house, part of their security blanket.

The Lure of Leo

With a champagne glass in one hand, they toss back their glorious mane of hair and flash a confident smile. They make large theatrical gestures as they animatedly share their latest triumph with you. They tell a joke and give it their seal of approval by laughing heartily as they lift their glass for another pour.

Within five minutes after meeting you, they get your phone number and then sweep grandly away for more champagne, more pate de foie gras, more caviar, more conversation, more, more, more.

You’ve just been swept along—or bypassed—by the leonine center of the party.

How to Interest a Leo

Key Tactic: You cannot act too confident for a Leo. Don’t hesitate to ask for their phone number within three minutes of meeting them. You must seem coolly confident and in control. You need to have an air of certainty—certainty that they will feel attract to you, that will enjoy talking to you and, of course, will want to get to know you better.

What to give them: They are not shy about letting you know what presents they would like, so keep notes on any dropped hints.

How to Seduce a Leo

It’s simple, really. They want the best, so convince them that you are the best.

Leos are impressed with confidence, by the wordly I-know-what-I’m-doing-and-where-this-is-going approach. Act as if you are in command of the situation.

(I don't know… so, I’ll pick one)

Seduction 6: The Tasteful Dirty Weekend

This is really a seduction by implicit mutual agreement and consists of inviting Mr. or Ms. Leo for a weekend away.

Leos require a certain amount of official courtly behavior. You know you have a dirty weekend in mind and so do they, but you don’t say, “Let’s go away for a dirty weekend”.
No, no, no, no, no
You say, “Would you like to come away for the weekend? I know this absolutely charming bed-and-breakfast with this wonderful atmosphere in the vineyard district. There are wine-tastings all around. I’ love you to come.”

Or … there is one Seduction that is written… I have to post it! As it reminds me so much of a Leo friend of mine NOTE: Not intended to offend… really for a smile.

Seduction 4: The No-Star Seduction

One crude but nevertheless effective piece of advice is: get them drinking, Leo is a sun sign for whom alcohol is a definite leg-opener or at least a zipper-loosener.

(pulling a paragraph… don’t know)
Sex with a Leo

Leos are naturally passionate—and they’re usually pretty physical, so you may need to keep your champagne glass in one hand and your bottle of vitamins in the other.

Leos like to think they can satisfy their partner better than anyone else ever has. Challenge them to do so. Subtly mention particular positions or achievements of past love encounters (frequently, endurance, technique). Leo will take note and endeavor to succeed.

Also mentions about liking mirrors and sex with clothes on.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Leo

The key to handling Leos is simple: Let them think they are in charge.

They don’t actually have to be in control. The real strings could be in the hands of a quiet Capricorn or Scorpio. But they must have the illusion of power. If given a choice between being a puppet on the throne and being the real power behind the throne, the Leo will take the throne every time.

Must Do’s

Be prepared to go out. If you’re a stay-at-home by nature, see Cancer, Taurus or Pisces.

No-No’s

Never criticize a Leo. They expect to be able to criticize you but they don’t want this behavior to be imitated.

How to End a Relationship with a Leo

You could try the frank approach and aim to keep them as friends.
Leos are proud, so they are not likely to beg you to stay. They are not likely to sob and scream in front of you. They will generally reserve the waterworks for the privacy of their own home.

Remember that Leos are good at criticizing others, so they may take the opportunity of the breakup to give you a lot of blunt advice. Steel yourself for an encyclopedic rundown on your every inadequacy and every time in the last ten years you messed up, blew it or failed… in their eyes.

posted June 05, 2003 11:50 PM              

Leos love to criticize that's true, and Sag's, if it's a good idea it was their idea, if it's a bad idea then it was your idea. If the restaurant is a dud it was your idea, they wanted to go somewhere else but you talked them out of it.

Leo's and Sag's make great business partners because they are very decided, but I get confused about whose ideas were whose, now I just agree and privately disagree. Personal pride is not such a huge issue as it was with me before compared to keeping Leo and Sag friends. The criticism does hurt sometimes, but I make sure not to criticize fire signs at all.

The Taurus was dead on, simple, pure and natural is best.

The Lure of the Virgo

They look so neat and clean.
Their manners are so perfect.
They seem so caring and modest and considerate.
They’re so… well … nice.

Perhaps you want someone in your life who is genuinely nice, someone who is genuinely helpful, someone who is genuinely sensitive, someone who is, well, genuine. Then consider Mr. or Ms. Virgo.

How to Interest a Virgo

Loyalty, steadfastness, honesty, dependability, responsibility: these are what Virgo is looking for.

Key Tip: A Virgo needs to trust you.

Impress them that you are honorable and can be counted on—that you don’t have terrible moods or unpredictable quirks, that you are even-tempered, equitable and constant. Come across as positively wholesome. They need to be certain they will never be confronted with any of the wild or even mildly rippled backwaters of your psyche. They don’t want any pebbles thrown into the smooth pond of their lives—and certainly no boulders.

What to give them: pottery, loofahs and back brushes, things for the garden

(my ever puzzling question) Almost had one… I got mixed signals and panicked)
How to Seduce a Virgo

Key Tip number one: Don’t freak them out or stun them in any way during the seductive process.

No shock tactics. Most Virgos will feel threatened rather than excited if you try to sweep them off their feet. There must be no alarming moments.
“If it were done ‘tis done, then ‘twere well it were done slowly.” It would be a grave mistake to try to pounce on archetypal Virgo.

If you freak them out, all your previous efforts will have been in vain. They will retreat into prissy and prudish mode and your solid groundwork will turn to mud.

(I’ll pull the first one)
Seduction 1: The True Confession

Honesty is a good tactic in the seduction of a Virgo.
Confess that you are sexually attracted to them. They may be shocked (or pretend to be shocked), they may even blush, but they will respect your honesty.

Sex with a Virgo

They embarrass easily, so talking plainly might be a turnoff. Don’t call a * beep * a
beep *; don’t even call it “having sex”; call it “making love.”

Don’t ever expect a Virgo to catch a slightly later bus to work so they can have sex with you in the morning. As to the idea of taking a day off work just to engage in hanky-panky, well!

There is a sexy earth goddess inside every Virgo woman waiting to be released. There is a sexy, earthy beast inside every Virgo man waiting to be unleashed.

When the sexual barricades start to fall and Bastille no longer needs to be constantly stormed, voila, the French Revolution. You may have a sexual frenzy on your hands wit a person desperate to make up for lost time.

It says that a Virgo likes long foreplay.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Virgo

Virgos are usually very easy to get along with because they don’t have overbearing egos. They are fair and caring. If you can give these gifts back to them, if you can refrain from disturbing their orderly lives, you’ll have the boon of a very calm, decent friend—for Virgo always expects a lover to be a friend first and a passion second.

Must Do’s

Be patient

No-No’s

Never raise your voice

How to End a Relationship with a Virgo

The key words here are “honesty” and “openness”
Virgos usually hate a scene and are not vengeful. It’s unlikely that they will try to take you to the cleaners either emotionally or financially.

It’s probably best just to tell them it’s simply not working out for you anymore. Tell them they are one of the nicest people you’ve ever met but somehow, well, the chemistry isn’t there. There isn’t that passionate connection between the two of you anymore. You wish them all the best—they really deserve the right person in their life; unfortunately it’s not you.

I have 3 Leo friends, and I actually get along with most on this site (go figure) Also, a Sag. friend and I like Ms. Pidaua.

I would have to agree with Leo and Libra being concerned on appearance. However, I think all the fire signs are. I know a few air signs as well. Oh wait... earth and water. I guess we all are in some way??

posted June 06, 2003 12:00 PM            

For myself, I give credit where it is due and also take personal and responsibility for my mistakes as well as bad ideas (well, if I ever had any...LOL...) Kidding aside, I work with a Leo and we make a hell of a team. In business meetings, at conferences and privately, I couldn't ask for a better biz dude. Then again, I also work well with Capricorns, Aries people and Scorpio men and women.

As far as grooming habits. I take a long time. This Sag love her bubble baths, hair care and makeup. It takes me about 1 to 1.5 hours to get ready in the morning (some of that is what I call dawdling time where I get side tracked and play with the cats or watch a cool segment on TV). Anyway, yes I do spend time on my hair, nails, makeup and clothes. My Scorpian friend used to really tease me about it because I even make sure that I am dressed and hair is done even if I am going to dump the trash or go to the grocery store.

I just really enjoy the foo foo parts of being a girl.

Pidaua, are you sure you're not part Leo? Hmm. Maybe I AM Sag rising afterall.

posted June 06, 2003 01:03 PM            

I have to say that I have always gotten along with Scorpios. I appreciate and admire their loyality and perserverence. Also, sometimes I am a little taken aback by their lack of concern over what people think when they act a certain way. Other than that though, I think their cool. (I say that because I have had a few close female Scorpio friends that couldn't care less what people thought. It was fine until it crossed over the work and the friends would say very crude and outlandish things that would make even the most crude frat boy blush. Also, their attire was not always appropriate for the occasion where the public was concerned.)

But who am I to talk. I am sure us Saggies have offended and made more that our fair share of friends cringe when we put that big old foot in our mouths.

I recently had that happen with my Leo. (Just like in Sun Signs) I was commenting on the fact that he is not that tall - about 5'11 at the most. I am 5'9" without heels. Anyway, I said, I really like that you aren't very tall and that you have a nice kind of stocky body. He grew quiet and I said "It fits me perfectly, especially when we play in bed". He then stopped, cocked his head and realized I meant it as a compliment, but I realized I was heading towards the "thorn in the paw" territory and said "In fact, I think we were made for each other in and out of the bedroom".

The Lure of Libra

Cleopatra, Adonis, Helen of Troy, Queen Guinevere, Brigitte Bardot, Super-man (i.e. Christopher Reeves), James Bond (i.e. Roger Moore) Librans all.

Librans are often the classic, well-proportioned beauties of the Zodiac.
These handsome show ponies are always well groomed, tres soignes. They like to preen and pose for any passing judge, showing off their sleek form to the best advantage. Librans are masters at exploiting their natural good looks. Peacock-like, they dress to display. If necessary (and often it’s not), they will work hard to mold, maintain and enhance their figures and features. The slightest hint of flab will have then running to the nearest gym or Weight Watchers meeting. The female Libran is prepared to virtually starve herself to keep the figure she had when she was eighteen.

How to Interest a Libra

Key Tactic number one: Flattery will get you everywhere

You must find the right moments to compliment them on their appearance. Tell Ms. Libra she looks stunning, that she is the best-dressed woman there. If Ms. Libra tells you she made the dress herself, be astounded to the point of disbelief. Say you assumed she bought it in Paris or New York.

Admire Mr. Libra’s taste in shirts, his haircut, his earring. Ask him how often he works out at the gym. If he doesn’t, be amazed that he can look so great without working out every day.

While administering these compliments, you yourself must be at your most elegant. If any doubt, rush home, grab the iron, raid your wardrobe and return looking great before approaching the Libran object of your desire.

What to give them (making sure it’s beautifully wrapped): Mirrors, expensive jewelry, gift certificates for top department stores

How to Seduce a Libra:

Librans receive plenty of dates and invitations—and they are not generally reluctant to exploit their attractiveness in an apparently cynical fashion by acting the temptress/tempter and playing hard to get. In this sense, Librans can be perceived as terrible teases.

Librans are the Venus flytrap of the Zodiac. Their good looks and Marlene Dietrich aloofness can drive would-be lovers wild with the dual desire to place them on a pedestal and ravish them on the spot.

Don’t give in to the second impulse. Direct tactics make Librans uncomfortable. They are amazingly adept to defusing direct questions like “Do you like me?”

Seduction 7: Seduction by Competition

A key tip for getting a Libran sexually interested is to come across as Hot Property.

If you’re not actually a star, if you’re not as delicious as Mel Gibson or as delectable as Michelle Pfeiffer, if you’re not as rich or famous… never mind. There is a simple technique for appearing to be Hot Property: make it known that many members of the opposite sex are in pursuit of you.

If the Libran sees others pursuing you, this will convince them you are desirable, therefore they will desire you. Libran logic at work. They want someone everyone wants.

Sex with a Libra

Librans like to make an art form of sex. They want the vibes, ambience, mood, setting, lighting all to be right. It sounds good but let's face it, it could be a lot of work arranging all this every time you want a bonk.

The also like a lot verbal-intellectual foreplay before getting down to it.

They want to create an idyll of love and beauty and sex combined. They are also often hung up on wanting to appear beautiful during sex, so make sure the lighting is low-key and flattering. For the same reason, forget about morning sex--Librans will want their hair done and makeup on first.

Also says they like to please.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Libra

Be prepared to put a lot of time into a Libran relationship. They are often obsessed wtih how much time you spend with them. Virtually all time spent away from them will be regarded as an indication that you do not love them anymore. If you hanker after freedom, a lot of time to yourself, time for your friends, a sponteneous relationship that isn't analyzed to death, Libra is unlikely to make you happy.

Must-Do's

Be prepared to talk about the ins and outs of relationships nonstop

No-No's

Never burp, snort, guffaw or speak loudly at social gatherings (or in private if you can avoid it)

How to End a Relationship with a Libra

Libra is perhaps the most difficult Sun sign to end a relationship with. Screaming, psychodramas, recriminations, nervous breakdowns, etc. are par for the course.

They will want to know why, why, why.

The Lure of a Scorpio

Who is that?
And why are they staring at you?
And those eyes—those mysterious, brooding, come-hither, harem eyes seems to be drawing you in. You could be so easily sucked into the vortex of their sexual magnetism.

Take one step toward those cobra eyes and you risk becoming enmeshed in the Scorpionic web.

Scorpio continues to provoke you with look, gesture and word. If Scorpio can make you blush, squirm or flinch, it’s a triumph. It is as if they are getting a thrill from titillating you in public. Their dress, too, speaks of passion.

Be warned, for this Scorpio you have just met is not superficial. Even a fling is not likely to be taken lightly. This is not frivolous fun. It’s deadly earnest.

Key Tactic: Scorpios are interested in everything dark, hidden and mysterious. So the trick is to present yourself as precisely that: dark, hidden and mysterious.

They are fascinated by power, so it is a good idea to emphasize anything in your current life that demonstrates you exercise power over others. For instance, you may be an elementary school teacher. If they ask you what your job is, you don’t say “I’m an elementary school teacher.” You say, “I shape and manipulate young minds. I get a buzz from it.” Don’t say you’re an accountant: say, “I organize the management of huge amounts of money.” If this makes them suspect that you may be involved in laundering lucre for shady concerns—so much the better.

The ideal way to keep a Scorpio interested is to create conversations that are a mixture of psychology, sex and power.

What to give them: Whodunits, true crime books, astrology books

How to Seduce a Scorpio

Sex for a Scorpio is often a power play. Tenderness, yes. Kisses, yes. But you must radiate mastery and confidence. Never appear uncertain that you will reach your sexual destination.

There is a sexual provocateur inside every Scorpio male and a provacatrice inside every Scorpio woman. This can be a difficult sign to read. When push comes to shove and the panties are down, they make like to be taken forcefully. On the other hand, you could end up being charged with sexual harassment. Be careful. Better to err on the side of caution.

The biggest danger is being attracted to a Scorpio who is going through a period of celibacy. Scorpios have been known to impose celibacy on themselves for many years. Many feel guilt about sex, which they transform into a “saint” mentality, as if abstinence makes them more powerful or more spiritually pure. Consider Mahatma Gandhi—A Libran but with Scorpio rising and Mars, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio. He swore off sex and to prove the strength of his will slept next to virgins! Scorpios have strong wills and can turn their willpower to strangling off their sexual desire.

(My note: Who’d have thought?!)

I’m going to pick one

Seduction 2: The Mental Masturbation Method

Now, this may come as something of a revelation. It is a secret Scorpios have long kept to themselves: Scorpios think about sex more than they actually do it.

They like to be mentally provoked—by their own imaginations or by another’s. Sometimes they like this more than actual sex.

One way to get a Scorpio worked up is to play on this desire to be mentally titillated.

(i): The Dry Run. The idea here is to give them a verbal dry run of what you are planning to do once you get them back to your place. You might do this as you are driving home. Or you might combine this with the Vamp and whisper it to them in public. “The minute I get you alone, I’m going to …… “

Since I rode out the Leos with the drinking thing … I figured I’d make it fair

Seduction 4: The Whip-Me-Chain-Me-Take-Me

This is the fast-track short-circuit Scorpio seduction. Say, “I want to be used and abused. Take me home.”

Not generally recommended as the opener to a serious relationship. But if you are primarily interested in short-term sex and if you really do want to be sexually used, if you are ready to be on the receiving end of the full Scorpionic sexual treatment, this will get their immediate attention.

Sex with a Scorpio

Scorpios are generally fascinated with sex. They are fascinated by its connection with the subconscious. They are natural Freudians, believing that sex is the dominant drive in the universe.

The Scorpionic idea of monogamy is you being faithful to them.
The word “moderation” does not appear in the Scorpionic dictionary. Scorpios can go from instantaneously from wh*re to born again virgin. They can circumcise sex out of their lives and withdraw to contemplate their psycho-sexual naval for months or years at a time and be unconcerned or surprised by your inability to do likewise. Or they will simply want to intellectualize sex, read about it, study it, do workshops on it, talk about it, imagine it—everything but do it.

When they are in the hands-on-mode, Scorpios can embrace wild, sexual infatuations that can lead to sudden marriage. They are attracted to the sexual underground: rough trade, prostitution, clandestine affairs. They like hard talk and taunting. They want you to be demanding during sex. They are intrigued by porn, sex magazines, Eastern sexual esoterica, sex aids, leather, S & M…..

NOTE: There are a few things listed up there that doesn’t “float my boat”

How to Handle a Relationship with a Scorpio

The female praying mantis lures the male to her. It’s not just sex she has on her mind: she wants to make a meal of the male. The hypnotized male can’t help himself—even though he knows it will be devoured in the process. This is a good metaphor for what can happen to you with a Scorpio: you can feel irresistibly drawn to them even though you sense the emotional H-bomb on the horizon.

This is called PMS—the Praying Mantis Syndrome. Would-be lovers of Scorpios need to be aware that Scorpios can emotionally and psychically devour you, your self-esteem, your energies, your willpower and maybe even your bank account as they are screwing the life out of you.

You are well advised to prepare your sardonic replies and sarcastic repartee.

My NOTE:
It does go on and gets worse and worse.

Must Do’s

Stand up for yourself—don’t allow yourself to be dominated
(Also says to take martial art classes) !!

No-No’s

Acting like a wimp—keep your weaknesses to yourself

Hot to End a Relationship with a Scorpio

There was a female character in a television series who discovered that her boyfriend was out of town cheating on her. She got into his apartment, threw all his clothes on the floor, hosed down the entire apartment—clothes, carpets, furniture, everything. Then she threw watercress seeds everywhere, closed the windows and doors and turned the heat up full blast. When the boyfriend returned from his dirty weekend, every one of his possessions was sprouting two inches of watercress shoots.

This woman was a Scorpio. No doubt about it.

Do you want a bed partner with a lust for life—including a lust for lust?
Are you looking for someone to share your own thirst for adventure, for parties, for dancing, for travel, for truth, for more, ever more out of life?

Do you value independence above all else and want someone to share this independence with?

Then look no further than Mr. or Ms. Sagittarius.

How to Interest a Sagittarius

Key Tactic: Come across as if you’ve overdosed on positive affirmation tapes.

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the largest planet in the Solar System. In accordance with this grand scale, Sagittarians want a partner who thinks big. To catch a Sag., it is a good idea to present yourself as an entrepreneurial type: someone with big goals and ambitious plans for achieving them.

They usually come across as friendly. They are easy to make overtures to. If they are interested in you, they won’t be shy, so directness is recommended. Forget coy. Ask them for a date at the first meeting.

What to give them: Glossy travel books, luggage, something useful and portable they can take while traveling

How to Seduce a Sagittarius

Key Tip: Come on hot and strong from the beginning

Sag.’s are not that interested in long overtures. Sag. is a Fire sign and is more likely to be impressed by forthrightness.

Remember that they appreciate impulsiveness. Indeed, Sag. have a reputation for making love to strangers—especially strangers from foreign countries. The archetypal Sag. has no inhibitions about making love on the first date or indeed at the first encounter.

Once you’ve ascertained that you’ve got their interest and have been short-listed on their sexual agenda, move in quickly and with assurance….

I don’t know about this sign … so I’ll do the 1st one

Seduction 1: The Grab
Make a wordless but unmistakable move—waist-grabbing, a cuddle with wandering hands, bottom-fondling. While their hands are occupied making coffee, come up behind them and grab ….

If their eyes widen in startled pleasure, yours will later, too.
If they don’t discourage you, keep going and see what develops.
This one is simple and superdirect: no props, no planning, no expense. Jump in, try something obvious and if you don’t get flattened or thrown out on your ear, you’re on.

Sex with a Sagittarius

Buy your vitamin pills now.
Sag.’s can test your stamina. You could be expected to go rock climbing all day and make love half the night.

Or they may expect you to sit around in spiritual mediation all day and then want you to move straight from the lotus position to all sorts of other positions. The quick switch from the sacred to the profane, from the mission to the missionary, is normal for Sag.’s.

If you are a bit insecure about your sexual technique, equipment, excess fat,….
Just put them out of your mind and do the Sag. thing: think positively. Concentrate on giving a superlative performance in the sack and this will put a soft-focus filter on any physical imperfections.

How to Handle a Relationship with a Sagittarius

Sag.’s set the rules in their relationships: “This is how I run my life; if you can’t handle it, too bad—go elsewhere.”

They want a partner who is a fellow adventurer rather than an iron-clad commitment. They are not interested in slowing down their ever-on-the-go lifestyle to make more room for intimate sharing. Indeed, they can be frightened of true intimacy. Often they choose constant activity at the expense of forging emotional bonds.

It says to try and be humorous

Must Do’s

Have your passport, backpack and sex organs always on stand by

No-No’s

Never show signs of emotional insecurity, physical debility or weakness of will

How to End a Relationship with a Sagittarius

The direct approach is suggested for the overture, but it is not highly recommended for the finale.

When a relationship comes to an end, the Sag. horn-blower comes out—the entire street will know that you have used them, abused them, led them on, loved them and left them.

As with all Fire signs (the others are Leo and Aries), breaking up with this sign can be a delicate manner. The main thing is not to leave them for another person.
