Thanks to Linda, my soulmate has recently become interested in astrology. After reading some excerpts from Love Signs, he is eager to read all of her works. What piqued his interest at first was my sending him the parts of Sun Signs on "Scorpio" (myself) and "Pisces" (him). He posed a question to me that even I, myself, have pondered on and wondered if any other Scorps (or astrologers) might have an answer. Linda says that you can always nail a Scorp by their penetrating gaze - that they will beat you in a staring contest every time. While I do have the gaze down pat, I have a very, very hard time looking anyone in the eye for any amount of time. I wondered if this was because I was one of the "rare" and "more dangerous" types Linda talked about who talked very fast and whose eyes wandered, or is it another facet of how some Scorps wear sunglasses (even at night or inside) to hide thier eyes, knowing they are the windows to the soul (I rarely leave the house without my sunglasses). Then again, is it another planetary influence that seems to change this seemingly positive-Scorp-identification? I'm completely Scorp in every other way - lol - except for this one. No big deal, just something I've been curious about... ------------------

Hi Bendis:I have to say that if someone looks me in the eyes I feel somewhat vunerable. Almost as if they can tell what I'm thinking. I want to know what they're thinking but want my thoughts kept to myself. I mean, that's why I look someone in the eyes. They have my full attention and I sometimes do it to see if the person is truthful or sincere. The eyes can tell so much about a person. I've really just begun noticing this. I think partially due to astrology. I've always felt like everyone did this (??) Also, have you noticed that while you're talking to someone you automatically look them in the eyes?? Not really even realizing it. Some just seem to fidget and look away ?? I sit there thinking "what is wrong them"? or "man, am I making you that uncomfortable"?  By the way... I love your quote. You wrote that? IP: Logged |

Yes, I've noticed sometimes that when I'm talking to someone I'm making them uncomfortable with my stare. But if someone is talking to me, I simply can't stare at them; I think it's just as you said - I feel vunerable.Thank you so for the compliment. Yes, I wrote that - it's a small excerpt from a piece I wrote in my journal a few years back that I've put on my website, "Soulcat's Edict". It's bascially the affirmation of my spiritual journey this lifetime on Earth.  IP: Logged |

You know what, I'm a person who fidgets and won't look others in the eye and it was brought to my attention by someone who seemed to be offended by it. And that's when I began to realize that I do that all of the time with people who I don't trust or don't like. Also I'm an actor and when I have to cry onstage I look into the other person's eyes and that is what makes me cry, only looking into their eyes(and being in the scene of course). You can get a lot of energy from looking into anothers' eyes. And personally there are times when I don't want to partake of anyone's energy. You can see so much of someone, their strength, their weakness. My six year old sister is a Pisces and when she gets angry she will have a look in her eyes like the depths of a rising storm; her anger had taken on an energy that I cannot describe. I was literally scared and had to look away. And if you meet someone who is particularly sensitive they might not want to see what you don't realize you are showing, you know? I have yet to experience the Scorpio Gaze so I couldn't say but maybe certain people are not equipped to deal with that sort of intensity. ------------------

I also try not to leave my sunglasses at home !! I do the same thing that 1Scorp does and I will find myself looking into the other persons eyes to find out what I can see in there  But man when someone is doing this very thing to me forget it !------------------

It's said that "the eyes are the window to the soul".... ....and I do believe that  It can be quite scary to have real eye to eye contact with someone - whenever that happens, I see a completely different person in front of me. It doesn't happen that often though - which could be my fault, as it makes me feel feel too vunerable (As Bendis has already mentioned). Somewhere in my "brain" I have a vague recollection about the eyes & the brain. Medically speaking I mean......I think it's something about the eyes being the only "part" (hmm not right word) of our body that the brain is actually open to. ie: you can visibly see the brain.... Hmmm I'm explaining that very badly. Anyone know what I'm trying to say/remember? Is there a doctor in the house

Makes me feel good to know I wasn't just doing a bang-up job at being a Scorpio! lol No, seriously, though, it's great to get some confirmation on the intensity of what you see (and what others can see) in the eyes. Thanks everyone for the great responses; glad to know I'm not alone.IP: Logged |

I'm surrounded by Scorps, always have been. Black-brown eyes, medium-brown eyes, hazel, pale blue, dark blue, still waiting to see true green...I find scorps have eyes like solid color marbles, sometimes with a swirl pattern-- round or slightly protruding, but totally symmetrical shape and iris, shiny like there's a thick layer of clear lacquer covering them; the pupils frequently kept constricted; dolly eyes, husky eyes, laser beam eyes, seeing everything but revealing nothing, unless you happen to either get close up, or catch them off guard focusing "the stare" in another direction. Although it's more the sudden intense head movement that gives their interest away, not what emotion you can, or can't see... My dad's grey-brown hazel eyes are like agates, when he rivets his shifting gaze. Scorpio is such a sensitive sign, and develops a repressive facade to mask its turbulent passions, so I've noticed that the Scorps I know all engage in some kind of glancing away, shifting eye behaviour... it's something of a shock when that full laserbeam gaze is turned one's way... but a cool shock. I'm a fan. Lunargirl IP: Logged |

Lunargirl, I found what you wrote about Scorp eyes fascinating. I know quite a few other Scorps, including myself , and you truly described the eyes perfectly. Mine own are slightly protruding, very large and hazel - they gold from almost black, to gold to a pale green. I think you wrote a splendid description of Scorpio eyes.Thanks for the welcomes! I can't tell you how happy I am to have found a place to share my Linda-love and wonderful people to discuss all of these things with! ------------------

Lunar: You never met a green eyed scorpio?! Well, now you have... 
They're deep green. I also enjoyed your scorpio eye description. I've always had people tell me "some of the looks you give people"! Those looks come without me realizing I'm doing it sometimes. If I'm mad I've heard that my eyes get wild I've always noticed other signs have eyes in common as well. Virgos have very clear sparkling eyes. Geminis have a glint to them. Almost like you can see the mischievous in there. Pisces eyes are deep. Sort of like a pool

Pisces eyes are most certainly a deep pool. Silverbells said earlier "My six year old sister is a Pisces and when she gets angry she will have a look in her eyes like the depths of a rising storm; her anger had taken on an energy that I cannot describe", and I must agree.My love's eyes can be as calm and smooth as a reflecting pond, as bright and bubbly as flowing stream and as dark and temptous as the ocean during a storm. I think a Pisces' eyes seem even more directly connected to their soul than even the rest of us. ------------------

I know a Scorp with Green Eyes, they were gorgeous, not bright green, more a sea-green, like the ocean And she liked to stare, talked about staring at random strangers that made eye contact with her. She said "well if they made eye contact with me I want to see why and I'll keep staring to test them" Go Figure... I actually ran into her downtown a couple days ago and luckily I had my sungasses on, HAHA!!! She couldn't read me I was really nervous, and I KNOW that she can read me like a book by looking into my eyes. So I totally agree allowing eye contact also leaves you vulnerable, leaves you weak to reveal your emotions She even complained about how "I" don't make eye contact with people. Personally I think it's rude to continually stare at someone while talking with them. There's only three reasons I would make eye contact:
1)Flirting/Seducing a woman
2)To make a Point while in conversation
3)Anger, transending the fire within my eyes onto another via eye contact soul channel IP: Logged |

I find it "peculiar" that so many people feel too vulnerable to hold eye contact for long. Dr. Joyce Brothers once said that when two people are flirting, the one who looks away first usually ends up being the dominant one in the relationship. How ironic is THAT??I think whethor or not you want to hold your gaze with someone depends on whethor or not you're into connecting with them at that moment. If not, there's usually a very good reason. If your a manager and you know you have to fire one of your employees at the end of the day, you'll probably avoid eye contact with him/her all day. Why? They can't read your mind. We give ourselves away sometimes with our own fear of giving ourselves away!! How ironic is THAT?? IP: Logged |

Pleased to meet your deep green Scorp gaze, 1scorp. Glad everyone enjoyed my observations!And Lost Leo: sea-green Scorp eyes, noted. So then you use your eyes to transmit a certain energy or deliver a certain message? Interesting! I frequently keep eye contact with others, but if I see they're like you and don't reciprocate, then usually I'll modify my style. It's the only polite response unless you're after someone's positive or negative attention.  Eyeball to eyeball... Aries rising in the first decan has a certain stare too -- I recently learned that, which explains some school photos where I've got this baby-faced baleful stare! Ok Bendis... now we know your eyes are just fine... how fast do you talk? Lunargirl IP: Logged |

*giggle*Actually so fast that most people can't understand a word I'm saying. Unless, I'm angry, and then every word comes out slowly and evenly - as if I'm bordering on explosion. I'm either the "more dangerous" type Linda talked about, or that weird astrological freak that was as "rare as a dodo bird" - lol. Haven't figured out which yet. ------------------

I know a lot of Scorps and usually they look right at me and do have intense eyes. I can remember now clearly this one Scorp male with intense blue eyes and that's all I noticed about him at first. I thought about how sexy his eyes were but didn't tell him because I am sure he heard that line all the time and I didn't want to come on to him. Kind of silly since I did later anyway. Nothing happened but eyes always affected me after that.Cancers have very sensitive eyes and a girl friend of mine who has the moon in pisces looks down all the time. She nevers looks anyone in the eyes, and complains I show everything in my face. When I see someone with really intense expressions I have to drink them in. From her I learned to look away most of the time. I have noticed Pisces or strong Neptune people look away most of the time which is charming but frustrating to me since I can't get a good look.

Interesting point about the Neptune influenced/Pisces moon people....I should take note of that since the two guys I'm mainly interested in both have Pisces moon, and both have issues with eye contact, one more so than the other but he also has a Gemini rising, and now that I think about it, I think deep stares reveal too much of his changeably intense emotions.
And this frusterates me as well, Natasha, since my Aries rising, Leo moon influenced personality wants them to be as open and honest as I am, and at the same time, my heavy Virgo self wants to analyze their gaze and probe its intensity, or parannoid lack of such.IP: Logged |

Hi, with a Gemini Rising he would be really insecure too. Mine has this and he was unknown to me very shy and worried about his attractiveness. If you are ready to commit give the Gemini rising one your full attention and talk it out because he will want to discuss his feelings to feel safe. Try for about six weeks and if at the end you do not feel that you are richly rewarded then keep him as a friend. He will be a good friend to you. Keep the other guy as a friend, there is nothing wrong with that. If your lover is jealous and he will be, explain that you need outside interests and friends or else it's over. Gemini rising can try and limit your outside friends and influences out of insecurity. I have a few Gemini rising friends and they make the lover their entire life. Intimacy is very scary but very important.I have Sag rising, fire risings need a wide variety of friends. It's your life, either lover will have to accept that or it won't last. Natasha IP: Logged |

I just wanted to say Lunargirl, your description of the Scorpio gaze is so beautifully sensitive and so in-depth, I really related to it I guess we all percieve this differently, but the effects are often pretty much the same IP: Logged |

I think that anyone with strong Scorpio or Pluto in their chart will have the strong penetrating gaze. I have Pluto conjunct my Ascendent and I do make massive eye contact. I have solid brown eyes, that actually have some red in them, kind of like amber, especially in the sun. I sometimes stun people when I am looking down and then look right up at them into their eyes. I have to look into someones eyes while I am talking and more importantly while they are talking. It helps me pick up subtle cues about them and if they are being honest or not. I understand those that are shy, so in those cases I won't hold their gaze for two long and I think smiling helps. I met an Astrologer that was convinced I was a Scorpio, which may have been because of my gaze. It does unsettle people and I have had a few men (especially Gemini's) tell me to stop looking into their eyes. IP: Logged |

You know, as I stated above, I've always had people comment on either looks I give people or my eyes in general. I really never took much notice in it until now. Honestly, I really "still" can't see what exactly is going on there. Jw: Was that a good thing, or is there some sort of saying about green eyes?? Just for the record. I realize that I misspelled vulnerable. That really eats at me when I do that. Ahhh well. IP: Logged | |
