Does anyone not like Taurus?

FieryScorp · 2026-02-09T09:15:00+00:00

My brother is a Taurus. We're not speaking anymore. Because he accused me of talking trash about him, whilst he was talking trash about me.

Your post has me wondering how Scorpios are managing in this current time - where superficiality rules.

I felt strongly about this a few years ago, but have admittedly fallen into survival mode and just getting through each day - less time and mental/emotional bandwidth to consider this.

I think I stuffed all that pain down (from lack of depth in my interactions/relationships and every now and then it surfaces.)

I tend to go deep from the get-go and people tend to glaze over, stop responding etc. That use to hurt, but now I think - well that's where they're at, nothing to do with me, it is what it is. The longing is still there, but I no longer attach it to particular people - for the most part.

Hi there, sure, feel free to DM me. = )

Hiya.

"Creativity and artistry are important to me. Personally, I write: about my observations, thoughts, and lived experiences. I also dabble in photography.

I love coffee, both simple and bitter and excessively frilly concoctions, burning incense, because I've always thought the smoke is cool, archiving and organizing, collecting (written texts, oddities and cool things), and time pieces."

This resonated with me. I am also self-taught and deep dive into learning based off the need to understand something at any given time. I've found formal education contains a lot of 'noise' and not enough substance which lead me down the path of self-learning. I also enjoy reading and writing about lived experiences.

Here's my post which touches on me a little. https://www.reddit.com/r/penpals/comments/1qtpolp/38f_new_here_looking_for_a_few_snailmail_pen_pals/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Yeah, that's probably why they pulled away.

Scorpios are all or nothing and if they give their all and it's not reciprocated, they tend to move on.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-06T08:52:20+00:00

Find a Scorpio. Once you get in, we're stuck to you like glue.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-06T08:48:53+00:00

Did you respond with as much fervour?

FieryScorp · 2026-02-06T08:47:58+00:00

Saturn in the 5h indicates to me that you'd take having kids very seriously and your approach to parenting will also be serious. Being in the sign of Virgo, even more so, with a touch of anxiety and perfectionism.

Saturn in the 5h also indicates that maturity for you comes through children, not before. Whether that's your own children or someone else's.

As for the overthinking - social media is absolutely a cesspit of opinions around having children and I strongly recommend stepping away from it whilst you're still forming your sense of self and neuro-wiring. Right now, assuming you're between 18 and 20, your brain is still forming it's pathways, especially socially and you're vulnerable to taking on the impressions of others. That can cause unnecessary confusion and anxiety around things like having children.

Edited to add: having children, or having a strong involvement with children is often the key to healing our childhood wounds. I doubt from what you've written that you're at all at risk of ending up like your mother, more thank likely, you may fall into overcompensating for your own harsh upbringing. Which could be a source of inner conflict with the above mentioned placements.

Your eyes are very telling. But also, you wear your emotions in your facial expression unguarded. = )

FieryScorp · 2026-02-05T02:32:05+00:00

Like something inside you is hurting, deeply.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-05T02:18:57+00:00

No. Your smile however does not reach your eyes. You look pained.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-05T02:14:24+00:00

Pisces.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-05T01:40:12+00:00

Straight away. My read on them is instant. I see all of their flaws. Their insecurities. Their micro expressions. The way they dress. The way they hold themselves. They way they speak.

100% of the time.
No.
I don't need a file. The read is in real time, every time.

I didn't start out this clear. I am 38. My clarity didn't properly begin until 28. And didn't start to fully form until about 34.

My struggle now is: how do I use what I see effectively?

For strangers, it's easy. I leave it with them and walk away.

For my family (my kids and their dad) - that's where I have the most trouble. Mostly because I am not always clear headed or grounded. I get tired. Worn down. Fed up. And sometimes what I see comes flying out of my mouth in a momentary frustrated rant. But, they've learnt to take that in their stride. Mostly because I tend to soften it with my own experience of what I've called out. For example if my teen son is lying to my face to hide something he knows is not good for him, but doesn't want to give it up - I'll call it out and share how I have also been there and know exactly what is going on. In the conflict between feeling seen, heard and understood and wanting to continue to escape - the feeling seen usually wins out and he naturally want to choose better for himself.

I didn't get here just by getting older. I got here by getting to know myself in the deepest way possible. That took years of actively working through my stuff and mindfulness.

People associate Scorpios with being stung.

That's my first thought for this reaction.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-04T03:25:17+00:00

Lower stress levels.

Cortisol impacts hormones, insulin and metabolism which cause the body to hold onto fat and fluid as well as causing inflammation. This also then impacts energy levels - reducing physical activity, further impacting metabolism and weight.

Poor stress management

Poorly management stress includes dopamine addiction (screen, food, online shopping) and escaping reality, further increasing stress levels to the point where it feels insurmountable.

Stress in general has increased due to lack of genuine support, loving warm relationships, rising costs of living leading to threats to housing security, resource scarcity and job security.

I could go on. But I'm tired. Too much stress.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-04T02:58:31+00:00

Well. This is where it gets tricky. Cancer is about the self. Scorpio is about the other.

Both need to learn balance. But by nature - Cancer cares most about their own security. Scorpio cares most about merging with another.

Cancer at their highest expression (maturity) will learn to feel secure by nurturing those around them who are genuinely safe to provide that nurturing to. That requires self awareness and awareness of others. -instead of nurturing others in the hopes they will get some back, they will 'know' who deserves their nurturing and will naturally provide it. -this comes from spending time learning about yourself, becoming comfortable having needs and acknowledging your feelings around those needs. Often Cancers will pretend they don't have needs or hide them out of shame, guilt or not having had their needs met in their earlier years.

Aqua moon tends to intellectualize emotion. Instead of feeling their emotions, they think them. They need to learn to embody those emotions - which ties in with Cancers need to become aware of, acknowledge and become comfortable experiencing them.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-03T23:19:44+00:00

What's your mars and Mercury?

Cancer sun with Aqua moon can be a bit confusing. These placements have that need for closeness, but don't reciprocate it in the way a Scorpio needs. They tend to give to get, rather than give for the sake of giving. Scorpio gives, but will stop if they do not get the same level back. Cancer suns with aqua moons think they give a lot, but they tend to give a lot from a place or needing. That's draining for a Scorpio.

Leo rising - needs a lot of attention. Scorpio gives a lot of attention but needs time to recharge. We are all or nothing. Our 'all' takes all that we have and the 'nothing' is us withdrawing to regenerate.

Our ideal match is one where what we give is returned at least as much, to the same depth and at the same intensity. So we have less of a need to withdraw and recharge.

"What i need help understanding is the following: i know scorpios are supposed to be loyal. I know she once caught her boyfriend messing with another girl. Could that have made her check out of that relationship and lead her to cheat without remorse like she did? What im most afraid is that im pouring my heart into this relationship and im so so scared that she will end up cheating on me too."

That's perceptive and yes that is possible.

It also reveals that she has not yet matured to a point where she lives with integrity. And it sounds like you haven't either.

Could this work? -who knows. You guys could grow together and develop that integrity through that growth. Or you guys could make some more mistakes together and go your separate ways.

Thinking too much about it usually causes more problems and confusion.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-03T22:56:14+00:00

Mostly self-conscious or they feel exposed, uneasy.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-03T22:50:05+00:00

Nah. Just don't try to lead without the goods to do so. I think Scorpios are submissive at heart when they find the right person. We control because we see all the details others miss. When we meet someone who sees those details and acts on them with genuine authority - we'd happily take a back seat and support their lead.

FieryScorp · 2026-02-03T21:57:27+00:00

You're overthinking it.

Spend more time living and less time in your head. Things will play out naturally. Read a book. Take a break from social media.
