I have always been paired with very pushy Mars sort of men from my childhood and I have felt like a victim.Sometimes due to circumstances like I am very young, or in serious need of money / financially. Sometimes I fought it and sometimes I couldn't fled.I hate being in any sort of compromising situation and there is lots of power struggle. Sun in Scorpio and I know my ego is getting hurt at times. My first reaction is - I want to leave and I am just waiting things to get better. Whenever I went through that I vowed I would leave that relationship when I would be in a better situation. When I have left it the men has felt kind of used but it has also made me wonder whether I am unable to keep relationship. Venus in Libra. ( It is a big insult to me when I can not keep a relationship and sort of afraid of being alone.) I think their message was right but the way they delivered to me was very harsh. Saturn in 11th would explain that ??? I had Pluto Transits in 1st as well but I am really trying to know if there was any lesson for me. So when everyone says Scorpio loves power. I am sure we do feel powerless quiet a lot of time too. So how do other Scorpions and other signs deal with powerlessness and power struggle. I am just going through Pluto in 2nd house and suddenly I feel Money is Power. - Key to my independence.Anyone who has gone through Pluto in 2nd house.Can help ?? IP: Logged |

The article is pretty on point - with a religious slant, but I'll let that go As a Taurus, both Scorpio and Taurus are along the same axis of learning to let go. In letting go of everything the ego develops and we learn who we really are. The waves of powerlessness and powerfulness are just cycles along the road of life. The Serenity Prayer deals with powerlessness in a subtle manner. "God grant me the serenity To accept the things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; And wisdom to know the difference." IP: Logged |

A lot of things feel like a power struggle to me if I let them affect me on a personal level. I'm usually up for a power struggle and don't mind playing with people if they seem to be asking for it.
Most things don't affect me, but when people start playing with me I either enter their game or call them out on their BS. Sometimes both.
I am confident that I can handle anything coming from anyone so it doesn't matter to me much.

It's usually people that play the power games not the scorpios (unless unevolved and childish) I've found that scorpios are a reflection of our own behaviours, so don't blame scorpios for crap going down hill (it's usually your own insecurity) Just let a Scorpio be and youll be fine, they don't bite...
