DEATH
This topic was created in the Scorpio forum by VIRGOEXALTED on Monday, September 18, 2006 and has 37 replies.
Have any of you scorps ever feared or continue to fear death? Do you intellectualize/imagine it's contents or do you just hate the idea?....I myself feel it can just be an end like most things no lesser, no greater; it is a new way; that is it. penny for your thoughts?
what does it mean to you?
WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE SCORPIOS?!?!?!?!
not a scorp, but i fear it. it would matter to me if i died tomorrow. im 23, id feel incredibly cheated if i died young. but at the same time... there's not much im gonna do to avoid it... what can i do? i can only think about it enough to know im not invincible to mortality, enough to drive defenisively, enough to keep sharp objects pointed away from me while using or holding them, enough to keep a sharp eye on everything going on around me, ever watchful of suspicious situations or people, and not only use common sense, but also always use my senses.
and perhaps i share this feeling with most other people, but i always have this bad feeling that im gonna die a horribly mangled and bloody death. anyone else? lol

HAHA! ur evil 
lol... notso, i wasnt sure if you were joking or not. hehe. thats cool. even if i do, oh well... not much sense in worry about it now. all the more reason for me to do things i've always wanted to do now! like streaking across the golf course that i work at before i die my horribly mangled and bloody death. =D that way when it's all over the news and the papers, i can be referred to and remembered as that chic that went streaking across a golf course. HAHA! i'd smile in the afterlife.
I've got no issues with it, personally.
Its just a part of nature and life to me so no,I don't really fear it or have any expectations cause it can happen whenever,however,etc.More concerned about having enough time to get good insurance n stuff together to cover my family financially than I am of death itself.My sister has MS so she definately wouldn't be able to cover me as well as her own health problems(she thinks she may lose her legs already as well) and my little brother is bi-polar so hes got meds he needs to take for the rest of his life mostly also.
i agree, i'm not afraid of afterlife, but afraid of death (like how will i die: plane crash/train/car/shooting/accidental)
Why should you fear death? It is the greatest mystery, the door to the unknown. Death, I feel, is very peaceful.
Death is not pain, life it pain. Death is capture, return to innocence, back to nature.
Have you ever been to a funeral home, or been to a cemetary? Did you notice how peaceful it was there? Usually you're too sad to notice, but if you focus, and accept death, then its just natural. Like starting a braid, and then tying that braid off.
Do not ask for it if you have more to learn from life, but if it enevitably comes, be excited because you are passing a great doorway, into who knows where....

Who the hell cares about death? I don't...Fear it? For what? Your gonna die anyway. I'm like the others. I wonder-HOW-I am going to die but please...it makes me no difference.
Don't really think about death, far too much life in me
Don't have time for death. I've got too much to do.
Yeah well I don't care if he hates me!!!
I still wub him oh yes I do

I like this. In terms of not fearing death...it's a good philosophy.

you know dying is only a part of living. I do fear death sometimes...especially when Im driving. I just think a big tractor trailer will hit me and take me out. Or when I am at the beach I fear getting eaten by a shark! Now thats a gruesome way to die.
"That's a bit too cheese-a-licious for me! Lots of people fear death, and why not? Many people are murdered, or die painfully. Not painful? Beg to differ; my grandma died of lung cancer, and it was slow and dreadful for her. It'd be nice to just slip away, but that's just not in the cards for all of us."
thank you. i fear great amounts of physical pain in life... the pain that is incapacitating, or life ending. and in the case of death, i guess i equate fear with respect and importance. i fear it in a sense that i know to show my own mortality and the mortality of those i love with some respect and consideration. i fear death and dying if its something that is going to happen in the next decade, year, month... 5 minutes (?) you can't even tell me you wouldn't be a little apprehensive if you knew you were going to die in the next five minutes. I know I would be... I have too much life to live yet. I dont want that eternal dirt nap just yet.
i dont care that it wont make a difference once im dead, 'cuz i'll be dead and wont know the difference' pffff, you're right... i couldn't give a rats ass about what i 'think' after the fact. the point is... i care NOW while I'm still alive and breathing! i mean... if i dont care about dying and when it is that i die, then i might as well not care about living.
on that note... i'm going to take my dogs for a nice walk in the woods where the air is fragrant, fresh, and where i feel very much alive! i bid you all a fond and temporary farewell.

Well, I'm laying on the cheese baby!
No seriously, death is the end of that pain. It releases you from one realm, and drags you into the next. When you say slow and dreadful, you are referring to suffering. Yes, I agree that suffering can be agonizingly slow. Suffering is torturous.
Think of it like this: Suffering is akin to the long walk up to the porch. Death is just a doorway opening on that porch.
Death is the finale of life, and it changes everything.
I also agree that its essential to think about death (no obsessively of course, thats quite morbid, and could possibly send the wrong destructive message to yourself).
But realizing that it will happen is very reaffirming to your life.

Mr.Nice, to tell me I have a martyr complex is subjective; I could honestly care less; a human being is put on earth for a 'purpose' would you not agree? I want credit for my work, and want to be known for doing something resplendent; and suffer no delusions mr. Nice; I do not fear death in the least; it is as with all things the beginning to an end of a former self; all things I don't understand I pursue with complete curiosity, and determination, to enlighten myself and gain deeper understanding of life; I am also not just interested in what just scorps think, but of what everyone thinks, becuase I respect/enjoy hearing everyones bit on life, which is why I started this topic; hell, I'll even tip my hat your way Mr. Nice if you say something interesting, and worth noting, but if you begin to generalize as if you have such an ability you disrespect me in a great way; you reject the thing I value most; freedom of thought, and convictions; I don't like to have my thoughts/beliefs questioned, espescially when the questioning is done by a person whom thinks he knows me based on sign; please, mr. nice you've got the wrong angel for that...no offense, just taking the direct route.
Btw, mr. nice, why did you come to the scorpio forum to ask that? did you want me to pose this question to Librans, or what your sign maybe? If so, ask, and yee shall recieve...I just thought water signs/earth signs were a little more 'receptive' to this topic, and able to produce an answer of depth and magnitude, but if you can bite the bullet, I'll fire away.....
I personally don't fear it anymore than I accept life; death is a fear preceivable to most people because they fail to realize it's innevitablity, and try to 'avoid' thinking about it...it is the 'absolute truth' as birth is the absolute cycle of life. I think that death is a good thing; it can be the begining of something more of yourself; you must destroy a portion of yourself, in order to 'redefine' or 'rebirth' yourself into a better person; death is growth, and when you realize that, you will fear it no longer. no point...perhaps I am numb, not pessemistic, but this is a label put on me by a wind sign...oh, well...we all can't get lost on a cloud, and dream our lives away; I dream, I ponder, I wonder...and death is only a part of my existence.
I have a problem with getting cremated...i think I would be able to feel it
im dead serious
lol, wtf eva mr. nice; I see this is some sort of trap; truth be told, my life is full of excitement, and I want some damned down-time to chill-lax, and coo' my heels already!! but It's funny the way you think you can analyze/peer into people, and 'predict' their flaws, and shortcomings based on sign alone; you don't seem to respect the 'individual' and it's differences....I read your postings with o O, and I don't even feel like gettin' into it with you; I've got bigger people to do, and better things to see; my life is what 'I' make it, no one else; I'll laugh you off like the rest of dem haterz....lol Reall coo' chattin' with ya!
btw, why is it you can't just have a 'backbone' and just like be mad at someone, or just be mad for the moment and deal after the fact? I mean as far as this site goes; you're not gonna crush my heart becasue you stopped being so 'nice' as you call it; lotta things I could say bout that, being that it all seems pretty passive-agressive to me, but that is your way, YOU are a mediator; I'll call on you when I've got some heat on me I can't take eh? I mean if it's all (hypothetically) according to sign, and name, then realistically that's what you are, you've no choice, you're just the middle-man, whoms meaning dosen't even register until 'after the fact'...whateva I'll let you just 'balance' on it eh?
"Interesting... I have a problem with the possiblilty of worms/maggots eating my dead flesh, and of my corpse deteriorating into an unrecognizable heap. (Ewwwww!)"
I don't like the idea of being murdered and ditched in the middle of nowhere still barely alive due to that.I also just don't like worms,theres like maybe 4 species of worms that aren't a parasite lol.

Who would have thought a topic based on thoughts of death would become so intensified...We are all gonna die people. Whether through heart attack, cancer, AIDS, diabetes, murder, sleep
It's honestly okay...We are promised nothing in this life BUT death. It's just wondeful trying to live life to the fullest right now. How you choose to go into after life is a separate topic. Cremation, Burial...whatever!
I personally prefer a burial. Let the maggots, worms or whatever feast away. There will be no need to exhume my corpse once I am gone so no one else will ever see it.

I am a Taurus, Moon in Sag, Venus in Aries, Mars in Leo. Does this mean I would seem to have more fire traits or is the Sun sign the strongest indicator??
