I've always found Scorpios very complacent and mellow.

Interesting, i guess i took the astrology traits to heart and expected people to appear like the traits astrologers claim their sign possesses.

Scorpios are a water sign so they are sweet sensitive souls at the end of the day. They hate weakness so they will try to eliminate this in themselves but it doesnt mean that they dont sympathize with other's weaknesses. They just try to eliminate it in themselves so they can achieve what they want, which is very important for them because their keyphrase is "i desire." I think that all water signs and all signs of the same element for that matter are pretty similar. Anyway, about scorpios not appearing what they seem. Well, to me they appear to be exactly how they are. Sweet people who have low slef- esteem sometimes and lots of defense mechanisms to cover up their true sweet self. All their bravado and tough exterior is just an act. They hate themselves a lot of times, sadly enough. But they are very private, and in my opinion probably the most complicated sign, more than even cancer. The secondmost complicated sign is probably virgo. But anyway, i never think that scorpio is being completely honest and showing theyre true self bc theyre so complicated and sensitive that they dont want to show you. So yeah, scorpios dont appear to be what they seem to a lot of people, but i as a cancer can understand them pretty well.

I agree that Scorpio suns are , senstive, private and complicated people, and they really don't like to appear weak. Their emotional intensity is very attractive and compelling. From what I have seen, emotional control seems a big issue for them - for themselves and often over other people.

For me, what stands out is their amazing ability to cut things and people out of their life with surgical precision when these no longer serve their interests. They don't look back once the decision is made and can be quite ruthless with themselves and with those that they leave behind. Often, the other person will not even see it coming. In this way I guess it is true that Scorpios may appear to be not what they seem, as up until the point of excision, the other party may have had no idea of what was coming. They won't know that Scorpio has been stewing over it for months. There is a tendency to burn bridges....very thoroughly

Some Scorpio suns can also be very manipulative. They are masters at mind games if their desire for control gets out of hand. Secret plans of revenge may also feature in this.

I am a Scorpio and I agree that our reputation is overblown.

I've known some Scorpio people who totally fit the stereotype, but I think those types of people just stand out more, you know? You are more likely to notice the manipulative, slutty, acid-tongued Scorpio girl than the one who just sits on a bench reading a book and minding her own business.

I have Scorpio parts but I feel sorry for someone who is highly Scorpio.
It is just too intense for regular life. It is like a really low note.It is wonderful for an accent.It is superb and unique.
However,if I had dense Scorpio energy,it would be too much,I think.

Haha-- I'm sure Scorpios care that you 'feel sorry' for them.
Perhaps you could word that less offensively.
It's the last sign you need to feel sorry for, really.

I love RunAroundScreaming's assessment.

I know when I was younger and deep in the teenager emotion, I had moments of manipulation, but I mean, you learn your way through life.
I'm more the 'read a book' type. I'm fierce when I need to be, but mostly, I'm sweet as pecan pie. Genuinely though. My pride is big, and I do pride myself on learning from past interactions and experiences.

Yes,Popcorn I adore my Scorpio parts but I am glad I have the Gemini balance. Hola a Ustead, Amiga Dulce

You seem so Eris ,Darling.
You never answered my question as to where you HAVE Eris--conjunct the ASC--maybe

Considering I've heard you 'bash' Eris and call it a blatantly BAD asteroid, I will politely tell you to back the ERIS off.


Or is that too 'intense' for every day life?

actually, linda goodman talks about this, and warns her readers to "watch out" for these kinds of scorpios because they'r more "dangerous" than the ones that seem much more intense

------------------
I once saw a sign that said "sin is death" but if "all deaths are suicide (linda goodman)" and suicide is sin, then shouldnt "death is sin" be more appropriate?

when organic is used to describe food then you know we have come to a dark age in history

I have a good friend who is a Scorpio and she is an absolute sweetheart, very kind, generous and great company ... but I wouldn't like to get on the wrong side of her. She has a lot of inner strength - I kind of see her as a "steel magnolia".
