Share an interesting observation about being a Scorpio

Here’s mine:

The entire Zodiac believes we are their de facto relationship therapists/social workers/counselors. (I get asked for advice constantly. And most people don’t take it lol.)

Strangest case you have ever heard of?

I watch a lot of true crime tv and documentaries as well as listen to several podcasts. It starts to get depressingly repetitive after a while— female victim, perp is a male partner, there’s an affair or financial motive etc etc.

What’s a really strange or unusual case that has sent you down a rabbit hole? I am looking for something different to dive into.

Any insights into why my sisters and I aren’t close?

I have given up at this point but I am curious.

I’m Scorpio Sun

Older is Libra

Younger is Leo

They don’t seem to get along well either. We are friendly but not close.

I wish I was closer to my sisters. I don’t know why we aren’t.

My fondest wish for a long time was having a vacation place together for my sisters and I to spend time. I was making plans to purchase one. But I couldn’t even get them to celebrate a birthday with me. They aren’t close to one another either. (I’m Scorpio Sun, older is Libra and younger is Leo.)

My older sister seems to disapprove of me and is very passive aggressive but outwardly warm. My younger sister is private to the point where no one’s been to her house, ever.

We are friendly but not close.

We all have something in our 12H though my placements are the most pronounced. Any insights?

I’d like to give my baby a delicious food name

My husband and I love to eat! We are quintessential foodies and the first to try any new restaurants in the area. I’d like to think we have somewhat sophisticated taste as well.

Because we are both food lovers our baby naturally has to be named something totally unique and food related. It should sound appealing and have options for spelling to make it stand out from the rest. Here are some examples of what we are thinking but if you have suggestions we are very much open to hearing them!

Arugula— we especially like the spelling Ahroogoolah

Kale

Shallot - very pretty for a girl

Veal (Kale Veal sounds like a good strong first and middle name)

Jambalaya— Jammie or Bala are great nicknames

Coqauvin

Bakery

Garlicka— especially for a girl

Croissant

Ham

Pierogi

Which signs/placements do you love but have had to block? Which signs have resurfaced pleasantly in your life after a long absence?

I have only had to block one person out of love but self care for my emotional state. That’s Pisces. Heavy stellium Pisces. This is different to me than blocking because someone is annoying or toxic or rude. It’s that “this is only going to continue to hurt me even though i love you and I can’t do it anymore.”

Conversely I have a few signs that return to my world after long absences and it’s like they never left. I have two friends from high school who have gotten back in touch after loads of time and it’s been such a blessing— fellow Scorpio and Cancer. Also my Aquarius ex is a friend who I feel obligated to check on but we have fun chatting because his sense of humor is DARK.

What are your experiences? Loving forever is a blessing and a curse.

I’m a little jealous to discover that…

Keith Morrison from Dateline is one of your people! July 2. You guys get America’s Murder Daddy.

He’s such a great example of the sun sign energy. I gotta look up the rest of his chart. Empathetic and beloved. Just a calm presence. And his voice! I wonder what his Mercury is in?

Blayne Alexander is the newest host, and she, too is a crab. I don’t know her style well enough yet but she has big expressive eyes and is so genuine in her interviews.

(I’m a Scorpio into true crime. Which is a redundant statement.)

Weirdest horror film you have seen?

I’m a fan of the odd, the surreal, the unique and unusual. I love David Lynch vibes, the feeling of things being familiar yet sinister. My soft spots are mid century and period films or things that seem disconnected from modernity, folk horror, isolation. I’m less of a slasher fan than a chamber or character piece.

What are your recommendations?

What’s something people say to you that instantly makes you dislike them or put your guard up?

For me it’s commenting on how I look. I think a lot of signs want feedback on how attractive they are. Not me. Leave me alone. If you’re saying that first thing I think you want something and the answer is “no.”

What’s yours?

Non Dateline recommendations?

I am always looking for things the quality of Dateline when there isn’t new Dateline. I confess I don’t love 20/20 (will watch occasionally but HATE the music editing) or 48 Hours.

There’s a million ID network shows but most are very formulaic. Are there any that stand out to you?

I loved the reboot of Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix even with the clunkers. It’s just not a ton of content. Also like the People Investigates, Vanity Fair Confidential and Curious Case Of.

I want recommend this documentary-“The Secrets We Bury” to my fellow Dateline people. It’s an incredible story and I’m still pondering it.

Leo is my opposite

Hear me out. I know Taurus is supposed to be our sister sign/opposite. But at this point in life I think it’s Leo.

Fixed fire to fixed water

Want attention and I’m allergic (though oddly a good public representative and speaker which i blame on Leo in midheaven)

Competitive about things like who has the best house, partner, hair, most social media presence. I don’t care at all to compete about anything remotely related to this. I’m competing with myself only. We want totally different things.

Loves flattery. Complements make me suspicious.

Performance based emotions. I don’t let anyone see my emotions unless I’m super pissed and then you get the Mars style rant.

Require worship and like partners who are a bit “less than” them. I require absolute immersion emotionally and want an equal.

Rule house 5 of creativity and romance. We rule 8 of deeply transformative situations (death as one) and sexual intimacy. So basically the real stuff under the layer of the fun stuff.

I know this isn’t astrologically correct but this is how I think. Leo is my “sister sign” personally. And I actually have a Leo sister who bears a lot of this out lol.

Signs as candy?

What would your sun sign be as candy?

I’m gonna say Scorpio is either sour patch kids or some kind of dark chocolate salted caramel.
