Post your concerns about fellow scorps (and everyone else) and other scorpios will come to your aid. Girl/guy trouble? drinking problem? (since scorps tend to be big lushes). Curious about a shady stranger or person who seems to have ulterior motives?

Very few Scorpios would bring REAL problems up. Scorps may come here to vent astrologically. But I don't think you're going to get Scorpios to confess much.

However do not be fooled...I am a deep river with my moon in cancer close to the ascendant.

I love a good drink of wine but only on a weekend...my mother is an alcholic so I am very aware of drinking too much so always watch myself.

I enjoy the understanding I feel with another scorp. They just know stuff that I do. I don't have to explain. But they've probably made me cry more than any other sign too!!!!!

Scorpio Carl,

Yes its a lovely idea......

And so many issues I would like to raise......some may not be appropriate for this board....but matters of passion, jealousy, obsession....well things that may be labelled typical Scorpio traits....I would love to discuss.

To see Scorpio male input would be be fab too....I have a Scorpio son, (with Scorpio Venus as I have)....I can see that he like me, is prone to jealousy and being possessive.....

So if anyone would mind talking about these issues, I would gladly respond....

Thanks

I am...married to a Scorp(for 10yrs). He has a Leo moon and an Aqua asc...he won't let go of the problem, even when a solution is thought of. He basically will beat himself up over things and will get very depressed as well...someone starts being rude or expects more and more from him, till he can no longer be so "nice and pleasing" to them. In other words, he'll stick up for himself or tell them what he thinks of them(sometimes not exactly what he thinks) but enough to let them know. Then he will be given the cold shoulder and or, treated badly...Do any of you have any thoughts? Also can I really do or say anything that helps him at this time? Any thoughts would be appreciated

Let's take a look at the astro-clues you have provided:
Scorpio modifying Sun
Leo modifying Moon
Aquarius modifying Ascendant

is

Scorpio (transformation, also power, control) modifying Sun (self-expression)
Leo (self-expression) modifying Moon (home, also emotions)
Aquarius (friends, also rebellion) modifying Ascendant (self)

This indicates:
he has a powerful, controlled self-expression
he has self-expressive emotions
he is friendly, but also rebellious

Scorpio energy is about "emotional security". So anytime he feels insecure, he can become VERY emotional. Since he wants security in his emotions, he can tend to go over and over the emotional issue, trying to stabilize and, instead, end up brooding. At this point, his self-expressive emotions become VERY self-expressive and he decides that these people are NOT his friends...so he rebels against them.

The issue seems to be personal emotional security, tied in with self-expressive emotions that tend to get rebellious. Perhaps it would help if he could work at being aware that the point of all these "games" the rude people are playing is ALL about getting him to lose control in some way. For, once a Scorpio sun sign loses control, he is no longer "powerful"...and no longer a potential "threat" to others.

A confident, self-aware, emotionally secure Scorpio is a POWERFUL force to handle...but an unconfident, doubting, emotionally insecure Scorpio is an easy target. Your husband's challenge is to develop confidence and personal emotional security, so that the opinions of rude people don't bother him. A powerful, self-aware Scorpio will "freeze people out" with a glance or simply ignore them if people act up...and if they KEEP acting up they may ignore them for the rest of the person's life!

Because self-aware Scorpios know that the power is theirs to keep...or to give away. Allowing other people to upset them is giving away power. Ignoring rude, inconsiderate people is true power, and Scorpio Sun signs know how to use it.

Most likely your husband knows this, too, that these people are simply trying to get at his power. The challenge for him is to develop his emotional security to such an extent that nobody and no one can budge it from him. Then these rude people will wish they had never opened their mouth!

Emotionally secure,

Tim

Fully agree with you regarding scorp children and the importance of inspiring them to have the feeling/need to protect the weak and vulnerable. A scorpios natural tendency is to protect those who are helpless. However, on a negative side- if not well cultivted in childhood , may lead to bullying/manipulation once the scorp has grown up and realises he/she is by far the strongest. As they say- we can be either a saint or a sinner. Cultivate that which u want, and watch it blossom!

I know, I know.... put two mother hens in the same coop and feathers fly, no matter when they were born.

I find with our 7yr old Scorp boy, if we encourage him to bring up his anger and let it out, he is far quicker to get over it then.....I find the following are helpful.

We bought him a punchbag and he can use that (much better than someones head). He is a gentle one, but gets very frustrated with life and others at times so we have to be careful that this isnt turned inwards.

Singing, dancing, running around the garden screaming. He actually sings in an opera type voice and I am teaching him to project his voice.....hehe...he sounds cool..

I will also sit down with him and get him to shout out what he feels.....like the other day he said "I HATE......because she was bad to me at school". Ive told him this is okay to say it to me...to say anything to me...I will always honour what he feels...but we cannot go around punching and kicking others. Again I will teach him to be assertive, without being aggressive.

As he gets older I will encourage him to write down all his feelings, maybe in the form of poetry or songs and channel it that way...

All I got told as a child was "there, there, you will be better soon", or told to "shush". When I was hysterical once as a teenager, my father shoved a valium tablet in my mouth. That was one of the most disempowering of experiences in my life....it knocked me out and I couldnt talk....of course it was heaven for them, they didnt have to listen to me. The good thing.....I am now anti drugs, so they did me a favour in a bizarre sorta way!

I think its so important that children are heard and seen and allowed the space to express.....I told my son, if nothing else, he can come to me and say anything. He looked up at me with those big deep Scorpio eyes and replied "I know mum and that is why I love you, I can be me"

I agree, and got something similar...they are called "Hulk Hands" much better than taking it out on his sister!

He does like to sing and dance too... It is a release of all kinds of energy I think the outward expression needs much direction but out it must go.. or i end up with on very unhappy little boy!

He is such a bright loving child! I really do love this age.. He is demanding, but it always comes out as a polite request...of the melt your heart variety

His only water planet is his Sun in the 9th....
Thank you for all your wisdom
