HI THERE EVERYONE

I have read in astrology books that Scorpios penetrate you with their eyes, are secretive and jealous.BUT the scorpios I know are NOT. They are friendly and talkative. Have I met a different BREED of Scorpio?
What are the TRUE characteristics of Scorpio?
ps I am a libra.

they can be either, depends on which way they play life. I've met both... just the way a cancer influenced person can warm and homely or cold and closed.

Scorpios will be whatever is required in order to best control the situation. Female Scorps tend to find their power in being socially dominant, males Scorps less so. Male Scorps are more typical of the sign usually, but again, they'll take on whatever demeaner is most effective for the circumstance. The main goal is to contol their environment and preserve the self, so however that is best achieved is how they act. They're infinately resourceful and insightful, and they ARE a water sign after all. How does water respond to it's environment? Why, by taking the shape of it's container, of course.

Hi,
Well, interesting. I've only known a handful, literally, of scorpios in my life.

(I'm one, too).

I'm pretty OUT THERE, playful, boisterous, fun. I know another scorp lady, 20 years my senior, and my mentor, who's just the same. But. . . we have small circles of friends (but lots of acquaintences). We let only a FEW in real close. And truth be told, I would NOT want to be on her bad side. We're both "eagles"--that is, if you ended up being someone we didn't wish to continue a relationship with, we'd just move along, quietly. You'd become invisible. (neither one of us are into the whole REVENGE bit--being fully aware of karma. . .). We're happy to just wait and let things work themselves out.

We would never go out of our way to hurt anyone, most hurts are inflicted in self-defense only.

I think the David Banner/Hulk character is a scorpio. I mean, who else would be this quiet, mild-mannered man with this huge secret, who kept to himself, but would warn, "Please don't make me angry. . . you wouldn't like me when I'm angry." Then someone's dumb enough to GO THERE, provoke him, and he tries so hard to fight it, but once he's to THAT point, BAM! Notice in all those old Hulk shows that the Big Green Monster never actually KILLED anyone? He just hurt them real bad--in self-defense, always. He'd go off to the woods, chill out, and be "himself" again. That's probably why we keep our inner circles small and safe.

Well, the scorpio men I've known, they are mysterious and sexy. But it's because there's alot going on underneath. They CAN be brooding types. Mouth turned down at the corners, quiet. They can be self-sabatoging jerks, too. Make themselves real unappealing if they're not interested in you.(rather than just saying, "I'm not interested, thank you.")

The only one's I've gotten close with, well, I could only get **so** close. One has a SAG rising, and one has a LEO rising--both born the SAME DAY, SAME YEAR. Weird. But. . .

Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to say is, you know, they're (we're) NICE people, we keep to ourselves (the important stuff anyway) and we make few, but quality friendships. Here is where quality is utterly more important than quantity.

There's no real big mystery here. We don't tend to get out and mix the same way a fire sign might. We don't wear ourselves on our sleeves. The parts we want you to see, yes. You're more likely to find us at a music festival or museum rather than a bar.

The Tibetan monks are coming to my city to create a sand mandala. they're going to be here for a week. They will spend 7 hours each day working on the mandala.

The last day they will disassemble it, give out the sand to the participants. Then a procession will form to take the sand to a river and pour the sand in, so that love and joy can go out from the river into the world.

After that, there will be 2 hours of sacred dancing, chanting, in full costume.

It will be during the sun in scorpio.

Will I be there? You bet.

That is where you are likely to meet a scorpio lady. Rather than some sports bar listening to Rod Stewart, choking down cheap beer. (gag)
Ta ta.

What's wrong with Scorpio? Well a lot. The thing is that I'm a person that has been stung from a Scorpio male. I'm in LOVE with him and he no longer thinks that I am alive. I was stupid to think that I could get him to do what I wanted and later found out that you cannot control a Scorpio Male.

I chased him, by calling him telling him how I felt and what did he do. Turned into a ruthless nonfeeling human that is cold and ignored me. He doesn't care for me. I sound bitter, but right now I hate him. I hate him. Well atleast I want to Hate him. God I wish I could hate him, no MAN has had such an devastating impact on me.

No more Scorps for me. If I do meet one I will now know how to handle one.
What's wrong with Scorpio? EVERYTHING is Wrong with their ASs.

Hmm -- to approach the subject with WHAT'S WRONG with them seems a little judgmental i think. We could ask that about EVERY sign. A lot of people think I am Scorpio having my Asc there. I am just reserved until i feel comfortable, that's all. Yes, those of us with this influence can be might unreadable and shall we say "cool and aloof" Mostly, it's a self-protection issue as the sign is STILL water and very sensitive. Tis true that the Scorpio remembers everything done TO and FOR him/her. And, yeah, because most are not always talking, often are misunderstood. If ya find an outgoing and friendly Scorpio, i would only have to assume their lives are happy for the most part and possibly (lol) they are responding to the higher vibrations of the sign. Of course, a quiet one can be the same. And we all know that friendly "fire" or talkative "air" can ameliorate the characteristics.

Sorry Gem-Aries that u have had such a difficult time with them.

HI GEMINIARIES

Sorry to hear about your volatile relationship with a Scorpio.
I hope it all works out in the end.
Maybe he is just one of those Scorpios that doesn't see the true you?

Thanx for the message you painfully sent out.
MOONDREAMER.

I don't understand what's so unusual about a talkative scorpio. I mean, I've met quiet Leos!

I can yack with the best of them (look how many posts I've made). Yet, I'll not share my personal life with too many.

I like what Lioneye said, about water taking the shape of the container it's in. I also appreciate what Linda Goodman has said about scorpios. I, being a scorpio myself really relate to her take on us. It always really saddened me, when I'd read other astrological write ups about scorpios.
I thought- that doesn't sound like me at all. It takes me a long time and alot of unresolved unfairness to get really mad at someone. And I am usually the first to apologize- that is, if I am definately wrong, even in little ways. I can forgive. But once something clicks in my mind with a person, if, for instance we've been down the same road a million times, and nothing is dealt with in a mature way, I am Done. Simply done. But I do believe I am an eagle, as apposed to a grey lizard or a true scorpion. But usually my initial reaction, when in a confrontation is to sting with powerful words, then think about it, recant and apologize, then on to a discussion to clear it up. I think the major issue in my life is the capacity to be changeable. I am definately a tad self-destructive. In that way, Pluto marks my life. I am aware that what I am doing is something i wouldn't reccomend to my best friend, but I feel so passionately about it, that I just don't know how to stop. I reword it in my mind until I can somehow justify it, even temporarily.
I have known some absolute scorpios. Once I even got seduced by the idea that I should have a fun night with a man simply because I wanted to experience one scorpio to another, BIG Mistake. He was so unenlightened, and I wrote that experience off immediately. Typical young woman mistake.
My mother recently got married, and her new husband, as he spoke of the wedding party each in turn, really summed it up in a sentance, how much he knew my character...
"she is a soft spoken, sweet person, who will give you great advice, and help you through anything. But don't **** her off, because she thinks nothing of verbally leaving you a quivering mass on the floor, and walks away without looking back"
Ha ha... That's me in a nutshell, but it's really not that bad. I have a huge moral leaning, and genuinely treat people with respect and kindness until they show me that they are unworthy of that respect.
If you accept me, faults and all, with a little understanding and truth, then I will pour sunshine into your soul and be everything I can be for you. If you treat me with anything less than I am willing to give to you, then F*%$@ off, I don't need you!!!!! HA HA

1scorp and pixelpixie,
Ditto here.

GemAries--I'm so sorry you found yourself on the receiving end of scorpio coolness and/or sting.

Those men (not all scorp men, just the ones that you and I've been messed up by) play by their own rules. And you know what? You will never live up to their unreasonable expectations. They set it up that way because they're afraid of having to face the music. Of being intimate.

Best to cut your losses. I'm not saying this to fluff you up with nicey nice words, but it's true: it's his loss. Not yours.
Remember that.

He's wrecked havoc and treated you with the highest disrespect.

Give him no more of your energy. Yeah, it sucks to realise the one you thought so highly of really is a jerk.

He'll **never** be what you want him to be. Trust me. It's a big stroke to his ego to see you this way. Trust me. Keep your head high.

Astrid

GemAries. . . ps

I am just revisitng a great book by Iyanlya Vanzant called "In the Meantime."

It's beautifully and compassionately written by a woman who's BEEN THERE.

If you read it,you will see, there are many "basement dwellers" out there.

Peace,
Astrid

Lioneye
Thanks I feel you TOO. The thing is that I did nothing wrong to this fool other give him a taste of his own medicine. I almost called him this past weekend to tell him that I hated him, but then I thought, why should I tell him that I STILL think of him,. That would make him feel good.
I DID NOT CALL

Then I thought what would I do if he calls. ? (We haven't spoken in 3 weeks) Do I act rude or aloof? I notIced that when we did talk the best way to deal with such an idiot is too be myself and show him that he didn't break me. Being me means that I am an authentic person who feels and loves. I can't count how manY times he told me he loved me. LIAR-LIES LIES LIES
I hope that I don't see him in the street. i KNOW i WILL-Not that I would do something, but my face says everything, it's very hard to hide my emotions. I would just look at him and walk away...... I think. LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

In due time, in due time, this shall pass.

I hate him. Is that wrong? I HAte him

GemAries-
Good for you. I understand the chaos in your soul over unresolved love. I think we have all been there. No matter what your sign is, we can all relate to the feelings common to human beings. (I should hope so anyway...) It also doesn't seem like it now, and maybe this sounds condescending, but I certainly don't mean it that way, But your heart heals... No matter how much it hurts now, and all the things you want to hurl at him will be resolved in time. I agree with LostLeo that, when you feel you are ready....even if you have to kick your own ass, get out there!!! Flirt, feel desireable. Know in your heart that HE is the one who should be suffering, because if he was as enlightened as he could've been, he would've seen the awesome person you are. That he is missing out on....HIS LOSS!! I can't tell you, he did you a favour. I wasted YEARS with someone who had a pull over me...I can't say wasted, because I did learn valueable lessons...including how far I can be stretched, my limitations, my icky parts that don't see the light very much (thank god/dess)But most of all I learned that no matter the bitter taste left in your mouth, It becomes less and less bitter as time takes you in different places. So that, when, years/weeks/months down the line, when you see him again, you can hold your head up high, knowing you are the victor in this... While you show him a flash of leg that he can never have, while having the best hair day of your life, makeup perfectly applied, smelling sensational, smiling prettily, laughing with your friends, enjoying moments.....okay, this last part is best-case scenario, but who doesn't wish they'd only see their exes under those circumstances!!!!!

Gem...
F*ck No! Hating him ain't wrong...

I STILL go thru moods of hate... I hate her for playing power games with me months after we broke up... I hate her for having so much trouble expressing her feelings... I hate her being a f*ckup in life... and I hate how she tried to make me f*ckup too... I hate the fact I NEVER TRUSTED HER... even more so, HATE THE FACT she couldn't EARN MY TRUST after a year with me...

See I think of the bad things and I think...

"SHE WAS BAD MEDICINE FOR ME"

That's the perfect explanation for our relationship... BAD BAD MEDICINE!!!

I leave her now in my mind... as this evil temptress of seduction, muse of indulgence, Eve of Eden & Queen Nefertiti reincarnate as one... took me in the worst direction academically, professionally, and realistically...

But on the other hand... spiritually, sexually, and emotionally she took me in TO THE MOST AMAZING HEIGHTS!!!
- ACTUALLY being... in love... whew! THAT was like a ton of bricks!
- She expanded my spirituality beyonds limits... made it almost "tangible" if you know what I mean...
- Taught me an appreciation for Nature on a new level as a connection to living things & the Earth...
- Sexuality, its depths... and how silence & eye-contact can push that act into transcendentalness... merging as one spirit... cruising thru all dimensions together as one... in bliss...
Not to mention the SAMETIME ORGASMS!!! (no fakies, thankya)
(Scorp staying power is unparallelled) Man we got good at that... anyways...
*gets back on track*

I "THINK" what it is... is that when you get to be "with them" the amount of attention, caring, love, concern they show, is SO INTENSE you end up in ecstacy... just rolling around in catnip, as Linda would say, lol...

I think we get like addicted to that...

So when it's gone... we feel like an organ has been ripped out of us and we're lacking something... there is a hole... a huge void to fill...

Sweetheart I'm STILL getting over it... the only way I know this is cause I DREAD seeing her face-to-face again...
I don't think about her much anymore...
I don't EVER try to make contact anymore...
I think I'm over it... I dunno...

So how long were you and your Scorp dude together...? How did you meet? How did it end?

The best revenge for someone breaking your heart is to go on with your life and be so damn happy it's sickening.

Ya see what Scorps can do to you? That's why I don't mess with them romantically. It's doomed to fail, and I'm not interested in being a walking corpse after they're done with me...I've seen that happen too many people. Thanks but no thanks. Let the martyrs have them, the Pisces, the Virgo's the Cancers' etc. I don't say this to be offensive, that's just my own personal reasoning.

Lost Leo ~
I am kind of...well......'turned on' by your description of your scorpio woman....
As I always suspected sex with a Leo would be of a different nature than sex with other signs...not that I am generalizing too much there.(ha ha) But you also connected on more than a sexual level, how did that fare? I realize you are bitter, but maybe it'll help with your healing, who knows. I can totally relate this to my ex...we are friends, and he used some of the same language that you used. Intriguing!

1scorp, you can't take offence to these guy's ranting because you're in a totally different stratasphere of Scorpio. You KNOW there are some very unsavory Scorpio ambassedors at large in the world.
The are some bad ambassedors out there for every sign, of course, but the baddy Scorps seem to inflict an aweful lot of pain on others. (mind you, quite a few people have been "burnt" by unevolved Leos as well, so hmm.)

Lost Leo, for all you know, your ex Scorp is just as messed up over you as you are over her.
