POWER.

What makes a person powerful?
Which sign do YOU consider most powerful?
Hay another one of these Big Grin
I believe that power is a matter of perception. If you look at someone as if they're a God that's what they'll be to you, if you see them as worthless that's what they are. Power is only an illusion- the only way someone can have power over you is if you allow them to.
We all live, and will somehow die. A dictator could die just as easily as the common man which he orders- fall sick or become insane. Not one person is greater than the next- it's all a matter of how we choose to perceive them.
No sign is "the most powerful". As mortal beings inhabiting an environment which could easily be destroyed by a flick of natures finger- we are all powerless and small. When we forget this- someday we will be humbled by great disappointment. Sometimes a leader may rise lay waste to millions of lives, he may be rich beyond belief, but his death comes as swiftly and bitterly as the next.
Powerful :: state of mind, confidence, shows leadership, unique, cares
Not sure which sign to attribute these to.
Well now those were some choice words by one so young 0.0
I agree.
Notice though that the signs generally given this type of perception were pretty much the first ones to comment here ^.^

Power exists... but it's not ours.
Sand, where is that from? It is very thorough and well-written.
Technically speaking power is the rate at which energy is expended.
A powerful person is one who can direct large amounts of energy.
Personal Power arises from will and intellect. You must desire something, then have intelligence to make it happen.
A person becomes powerful by repeatedly exercising their will and intellect.
