On the flip side.....he might like you. You have to be direct, he'll test you a lot to measure your interest, and 'hints' can often fall wide of the mark for a Scorpio. If I am honest, directness gets me every time. I have probably let many people who I 'liked' slip through the net as I could not get enough reassurance that they liked me, so the wall stayed up. We are desperate to connect emotionally, but it is all or nothing. Once you've earned the trust, we will not leave your side (metaphorically, we really like our own space!!). I like how Bear described it above. IP: Logged |

eskimono, SO TRUE.Maybe he does like you. He might be testing you to see if you *really* care. How far you're ready to go to get him. I think that's quite common among Scorpios. TESTS. mind games. Get ready. Some Scorps are pretty straightforward though. Depending on other placements. The hot/cold thing is when they have doubts or when they need time to think, to analyze the situation. "me time" is precious for Scorpios.

Here's a new one...If a Scorpio is getting laid, and I'm not talking loving connection, emotional transcendance. Just with someone, maybe friends with benefits, would it make a Scorpio a little more slower in moving on to another person, who's perhaps more better matched? Would a Scorpio hold off pursuing a relationship, if they had someone to relieve them of their sexual needs? Getting a little creative here... IP: Logged |

Ugh.. my Scorpio ex fell into my lap basically. I can't decide whether or not he is aware of them but he is so damn "nice" he uses it to try and control people. Annoying as hell. IP: Logged |

scorpio loves sex, not necessarily need sex...so i'm sure it would be pretty easy for him to pursue a relationship and drop his "friend with benefits"...even when in a relationship with you he may talk sex or make sex references but not always expect sex as long as you are straight up with him that you want to wait for an amount of time....for example i was with a group of friends (the driver was CRAZY) and my scorpio boyfriend at the time (right after the driver purposely swerved and i started breathing hard) said "i havent heard you breath that hard since the other night" i could have slapped him right there, mostly because my nervousness about being on the road is no joke with me, loledit: oh yes, scorpio guys are sooo much more feminine than the girls (similar to the physical appearance of the aquarius's, only its behavior)...the scorpio guy i dated's favorite color was pink and whenever he played games he played as a female character...on Super Smash Bros, on D&D, Soul Calibur, all of them games ------------------ put your foot down once, not stomp it over and over IP: Logged |

I think a Scorpio has to respect you.Prolly ,he could find all sorts of girls but you have to be someone who has more than physical charms. You have to have integrity and character,I think. Down deep,it is NOT sex he wants.It is someone with whom he can rest his head.------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

I know some things about Scorpios. I can't seem to stop running into them for some reason. First off, they are a lot more friendly and shy most of the time than the brooding, dark stereotypes that most people find in astrological descriptions. You don't see the dark side of them until after getting to know them. The ASC is prone to putting that part of them out in the open, not the sun sign. They are generally incredibly nice. Unfortunately, in my experiences(that do not speak for all scorpios so no hurt feelings or judgment here) they are that nice because they had hidden motives/agendas.Scorpios are generally a lot more shy and timid than they are made out to be. Those with a Fire ASC, Moon, or Mars tend to the the more gutsy/outspoken type. Those with a Sag, Cancer, or Pisces Moon or ASC have been completely approachable and not intimidating at all in my experience -- and they smile a lot too. Haven't met any, but I bet those with Libra placements would be the same. Those with earth placements tend to have walls up that are much harder to knock down and get to know them better. Mixed with wind, more social and "open" about their secrets.(in their own coded way) Definitely not afraid to mingle at social events instead of hanging out away from the crowd observing people and watching others from a corner. Most Scorpios are mysterious to others because scorpios carry around a LOT of fear. They are usually considered fearless...well...maybe when standing up for what they believe in, but actually letting a person get to know the real them scares the hell out of them. Especially if they think you will use this information against them. Or that you won't like the "real" them. The tests, mind games, disappearing acts, or short answers that don't really answer your questions are just ways of saying "I have severe trust issues and I'm terrified of you". Unless of course if they don't like you, it's because they do not feel you are privileged to such information to get to know them better. One thing they all have in common. Talk about something they believe in strongly, except make a statement that smacks of something they find to be fake or incorrect. They will have to do everything in their power to not try to correct you or tell you why you are wrong. Especially if they are just getting to know you this will be especially painful for them as they try to grit their teeth and not say something that would make you not like them if they are interested. It will drive them crazy not being able to tear down what they see is your fake version or reality, and give you a huge dose of what they consider to be the "truth" on the matter. Even an outgoing Sag with a Scorp Venus makes them terrified of rejection. It's even worse when paired with a Scorp Sun. They try to get you to come to them. They act surprised when you follow their "clues" or hints as if they don't have the hots for you, then turn around after they figured you out and it's "safe" to finally "seal the deal". This prevents humiliation. The more they like you the worse it is. They can watch for you a couple of years wishing they could say something to you, but never make a move. Scorpios can be sexual, but their mars sign is key to finding out how they are sexual.(especially if a male) A scorpio mars even not coupled with a Scorpio Sun blows a regular Scorpio Sun to smithereens in the sex drive department. Seriously, most sexual placement ever! One guy who has this told me he "wasn't this way at all!!!", and it turns out -- good God -- he definitely is.(found another profile of him on another site after he told me this) In a scary kind of way. I don't think I could ever believe a scorp mars if they ever told me that again. Most Scorps do feel VERY deeply. A lot of them as children cried a whole lot more than they cared to admit -- no matter what the moon sign was. It is a water sign after all. But unfortunately these people in matters of love can sting you, sting themselves, and bring you down quickly wondering what the hell just happened. Don't ever try to change them. You'll get hooked into a cycle in which there is no escape. A lot of them when they finally start opening up reveal the people that haunt them from their pasts, give you just a taste of the wounds they've encountered in their life...and it can make you want to try and hang in there thinking you can "fix it", having such massive sympathy/empathy listening to their painful stories about abuse, near death experiences, or terror that they faced -- especially in their teens or early adulthood. You hope you bring the "real" them out hiding behind the mask, and one day they'll trust you. If they are not emotionally healthy, you have to realize you can never fix it so don't even try. And soon, if you stick through all the B.S. and just keep "hoping" you'll become just as emotionally unbalanced as they are. Only stick with Scorps who are willing to put as much energy and time into a friendship/relationship as you are! They can be the most faithful, enduring friends or lovers (if they've worked out their trust issues) you've ever met. IP: Logged |

I am a Scorpio ASC. You are right in that the ASC may show Scorpio but it is not as deep as the other placements. I am only just growing in to that ASC. ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man. You must face the dregs of Nessus to touch the love and beauty of Neptune.

zanarkand, that was AMAZING.It hit the spot on SO many levels. I knew Scorpio was more fear than secretive. This explains a heck of a lot. I'd be afraid to show my true self, if I couldn't control my emotions. THey have their emotions controlled to a science. Thank you again. IP: Logged |

Ami, of course I remember you. Long time no see...er talk? lol I hope you are doing well. And I think a Scorpio Asc is every bit as intense and sincere as the Sun, but less afraid to go on ahead and put what they are all about "out the table" in the end once people get to know you. The ASC is like a defense mechanism and how you cope with daily life when facing new situations, where as the Sun represents you true inner self/ego.Maddi, thanks for the compliments as well. They do have a lot of fear, but just don't make the excuses I did for one in particular. I felt sorry for him and his sob stories and that allowed him to take advantage of me.(he had a scorp sun, scorp merc, scorp venus and mars(conjunct), and pluto in the eighth, cancer moon) If someone is doing anything whether emotional physical that hurts -- back away if they don't stop. Nothing astrological can excuse that kind of behavior. We all have free will in the end. Their survival instinct is VERY strong though, and the less spiritually evolved ones will sacrifice you in the end to protect themselves. This is why you have to be careful if they show the warning signs and not make excuses for them or learn the hard way. However, the completely opposite scenario will occur if they are spiritually evolved scorp and truly love you. They won't even have to think about it. It's just that Scorpios can come on strong like they are looking for love exclusively with you while still obsessing about their Ex the entire time.(and like any men no matter what sign, just using you for sex or to ease their loneliness) Or they can be cool as ice while every time they see you they are torn up inside wishing what it was like to be closer to you. And when they show their vulnerable side, like a whining dog you can reach out to pet and comfort them. You can tell how bad they just need to be loved, but they they turn right around and sink their teeth in and scurry away to a dark corner. Too many people get hooked into this system and will learn in the end, unless that person decides to change, this cycle will never end. And you'll keep trying to no avail and no "payoff" waiting for a better tomorrow that never comes. It's not about "proving" you are faithful to them and passing the tests; this person's own insecurity is to blame. And the only person that can change that is themselves. Despite the fear though, Scorpios do consider themselves survivors, and maybe it's just how they tell you the stories of their past, but I think it's well deserved reputation for the sign in the end. Scorpios, even the asc and moon, seem to have some experiences that raise the hair on my body and give me chills down my spine. I think they run into these intense/traumatic situations as a catalyst for their own soul growth/development which is why they have a strong dose of Plutonic energy in their own charts this lifetime. And they are very much in control(of their out of control lol) emotions. And they secretly desire to control or possess their partner too. Did you know if you make a ring of fire around a scorpion it will sting itself to death? Completely true. That should be a clue to all of us just how powerful their will is to be in control of their own life, their emotions, and the people that matter most to them. If they feel out of control, and their vulnerability completely exposed or humiliated, they will self-destruct rather than keep on going if they have to submit or no longer feel like its possible to be in charge of their own destiny. BTW, this music may not be everyone's cup of tea, but this is the epitome of what I consider Plutonic love: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mmfn4uRtIxk IP: Logged |

Oh ,My Goodness That made me sad about the Scorpion and the ring of fire. Yes,I have been forced to transform,many times. Before,I went kicking and screaming. Maturity might be going with the flow.IF a Scorpio lets you in,you have a prize of inesteemable value. You will have to earn it by fire BUT what are cheap things worth ,anyway ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

Zanarkand112, that song was creepy, but very helpful into understanding some of the thinking of what love can be. It's very deep. With my placements being mostly fire and air, with Pluto conjunct my Aries sun, it's so hard for me wrap my head around the depth of it all, yet feel I SHOULD be able to understand it. There are times where I know I'm more complex than I even admit to myself.As far as your statement that they are cool as ice on the surface, yet pine for you. I sometimes see him fighting with himself, figuratively. He'll just be standing there, thinking. Turning his head from one side to another. Welcoming me with the most tender look, then turning it off and ignoring me completely, as if I'm not even there. I guess he's just too afraid of what I could offer him. And, alas, I could see this potentially going on for years. IP: Logged |

The Scorpio energy has always been really scary to me. I am a Scorp ASC,as I said. I have Pluto conjunct the MC(exact)I was afraid of the standing alone that a Scorpio must do. It is the exact opposite of a Gemini,in a way. I have Gem Sun,Merc and Venus. Gemini flourishes in a group. Scorpio stands by it's principles and NEVER gives in to a group,any group,if it compromises it's own integrity. Scorpio energy is still really scary to me,quite frankly. However,I am ,gingerly, trying it on as a coat. It is my ASC and ,as such,I must wear it if I am to protect myself from the cold. ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

Ami Anne, I can see the difficult soul searching that you must need to do to be true to yourself. But you'd probably be surprise how much your Asc actually shows through. Look at your post. You realize you must change, and that you will do it, slowly but surely. just find the right balance.I have Cap Ris, and for the longest time, just couldn't accept that as my "coat" but the more I pay attention to myself (not hard for aries, a bit harder for Cap) I see the veil being lifted. Good luck to you. IP: Logged |

(((Maddi))) Thank you You know what is VERY pitiful? A Scorpio who does not take his/her own power. It truly becomes the lowest forms of Scorpio,the scorpion. I became that.I stung myself.It doesn't matter who you sting. You are still the lowest form of Scorpio. Scorpio allows you to rise above,always. You must claim it's power like Dorothy. She always had the red shoes with which to go home. She just did not know it. ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

Before we got into astrology fully, meaning only sun signs, my sister swore she couldn't be a Saggitarius. She had this feeling that she was more Scorpio. When we did a natal chart, not too long ago, turns out her moon is in Scorpio. Now, she's focusing on her Scorpio moon and trying to hone in on her Scorp skills. Just read as much as you can, and try to focus on what things about you need that extra bit of effort to shine thru. Thanks for the hug, I needed it! IP: Logged |

It is a natural expression, stemming from a need of secrecy. "They are usually considered fearless...well...maybe when standing up for what they believe in, but actually letting a person get to know the real them scares the hell out of them." With this its just like with every other thing, What is the motivating factor in my actions. "Motivation is a key word"

Dear Maddi I feel on the verge of feeling some things,for you,about your guy. Please write a detailed description of your relationship with him, as much as you can. I think I can offer some help,if you care to write more PS Maddi,I get the sense that he DOES like you.You ,just, feel befuddled in how to deal with his signals. If you get clarity,you should be able to go forward. I have the feeling he is worth it.
