"Parents may or may not realise at one point or another that they are not right... the bigger picture here is doing it the aqua way... air signs use words like 'evolved, intelligent, weird, bigger picture, etc' to pass of their ways as the correct way..."
And it's not just Aquas make logic out of what is "right" or "wrong." Alot of parents who've had trust issues or childhood issues in their own past tend to let their past control how they raise their own children. I don't think it's a bad thing that she wants what's "right" for you. B/c I'm sure you'd resent a mother even more if she absolutely DID NOT care. Everyone doesn't have a mother who even cares or is concerned enough about their well being. BUT how she "delivers" her demands as a mother wanting the best for her child is wrong. But what if she never changes? What if what you're seeing is how she'll always be? What then? Is the answer, be disrespectful? Be resentful all of your life? Be miserable b/c you love your mother but don't like her? It is VERY possible that your mother will not change, so all you can do is try to cope & accept her for who she is & what wrongs she does, the same way you want her to accept you for those same things. If she calls 5 times a day, don't answer the phone all of those times. Answer the phone once. If she talks negatively about other people, oh well, that's HER battle, but don't make it yours. If she won't let you have your privacy, make it so that she doesn't have FULL access to your private life, etc.

For readers unacquainted with the progress that has been made in recent years by earnest students of occultism attached to the Theosophical Society, the significance of the statement embodied in the following pages would be misapprehended without some preliminary explanation. Historical research has depended for western civilisation hitherto, on written records of one kind or another.
When literary memoranda have fallen short, stone monuments have sometimes been available, and fossil remains have given us a few unequivocal, though inarticulate assurances concerning the antiquity of the human race; but modern culture has lost sight of or has overlooked possibilities connected with the investigation of past events, which are independent of fallible evidence transmitted to us by ancient writers.
The world at large is thus at present so imperfectly alive to the resources of human faculty, that by most people as yet, the very existence, even as a potentiality, of psychic powers, which some of us all the while are consciously exercising every day, is scornfully denied and derided. The situation is sadly ludicrous from the point of view of those who appreciate the prospects of evolution, because mankind is thus wilfully holding at arm's length, the knowledge that is essential to its own ulterior progress.
The maximum cultivation of which the human intellect is susceptible while it denies
itself all the resources of its higher spiritual consciousness, can never be more than a preparatory process as compared with that which may set in when the faculties are sufficiently enlarged to enter into conscious relationship with the super-physical planes or aspects of Nature.

Well hey, I can only see things from the eyes of an Aqua, b/c that's what I am. I'm speaking on behalf of being an Aqua b/c that's the only sign I can speak on behalf of. Just like they say "No one can sex you like a Scorp." Sure other signs can sex you, but it's also widespread & known that Scorps. have been branded in the sex department. Some signs love a little bit harder than others or deal with distance alot different than others. If I hadda said, "No one can play the "distance" game better than Aquas" I'm sure alot of you would agree. But the minute I say "No one can love like Aquas" you automatically assume that I'm making it out so that Aquas appear better or more superior than other signs & not once did I say that.
You're right. Love is doomed for everyone. But she asked about Aquas in particular so I responded in a way particular to Aquas, & not everyone. I think Aquas are a little more strict than some other signs in the "love" department & so it's understandable why some just can't figure us out. But sometimes you have to put yourself in someone else's shoes to know why they are the way they are & explaining how an Aqua mind processess his thoughts is just that: explaining. Whether or not she decides to pursue him is up to her.

actually seen my cappy brother in similar twisted situation - just recently too... made my head spin with all the 'he said, she said, they said, they asked, she lied, etc...'
but the main point here is 'why do you care nov_scorp?' --- ok yea I know lying = betrayal = punishable by death for scorps and caps, but I don't see why it warrants a thread? he had his reasons, whatever, you're in love with another, right?

For anyone who will have the patience to study the published results of psychic investigation during the last fifty years, the reality of clairvoyance as an occasional phenomenon of human intelligence must establish itself on an immovable foundation. For those who, without being occultists?students that is to say of Nature's loftier aspects, in a position to obtain better teaching than that which any written books can give?for those who merely avail themselves of recorded evidence, a declaration on the part of others of a disbelief in the possibility of clairvoyance, is on a level with the proverbial African's disbelief in ice.
But the experiences of clairvoyance that have accumulated on the hands of those who have studied it in connection with mesmerism, do no more than prove the existence in human nature of a capacity for cognizing physical phenomena distant either in space or time, in some way which has nothing to do with the physical senses. Those who have studied the mysteries of clairvoyance in connection with theosophical teaching have been enabled to realize that the ultimate resources of that faculty range as far beyond its humbler manifestations, dealt with by unassisted enquirers, as the resources of the higher mathematics exceed those of the abacus. Clairvoyance, indeed, is of many kinds, all of which fall easily into their places when we appreciate the manner in which human consciousness functions on different planes of Nature. The faculty of reading the pages of a closed book, or of discerning objects blindfold, or at a distance from the observer, is quite a different faculty from that employed on the cognition of past events. That last is the kind of which it is necessary to say something here, in order that the true character of the present treatise on Atlantis may be understood, but I allude to the others merely that the explanation I have to give may not be mistaken for a complete theory of clairvoyance in all its varieties.

"will be hard to put a % on it... it will be obvious if you ask people in relationships series of questions, that's when you get the ridiculous responses like krys's examples..."
Speak for yourself. Don't throw me under the bus to make your response seem more credible than mine. Let others decide for themselves if they think my responses & examples are ridiculous. When I respond to something, I not ONCE have to add on to my post that "such & such" doesn't make sense b/c I let others be the judge of that. I can't hate on how you personally feel about my responses, but don't try to throw others under the bus just to make your point seem more valid

10yrs is no biggie these days --- if you're in your 20s, you've probably seen and done just as much as another in 30s - especially the way you buzz about like evan, kris, OFA and Xtina - don't think it's the aqua in the chart... I guess anyone no matter the sign can be hyper?
as long as you're both comfortable/confident, other people around you will always have things to comment on even without the age diff thing.
