the masters of the zodiac. They have many amazing qualities and some pretty bad ones too. They could practically rule world if they just balanced out their negatives.
Ahhh... BS Big GrinDD
I'm not a scorpio though. smile Even if other signs can claim this, I still believe scorps have a greater chance at doing so. Just look at Bill Gates.
edit: He isn't master of zodiac but he went from a decently rich kid to filthy rich man. I bet he doesn't buy tp, he prolly just uses dollar bills.
Sure other signs can rule the zodiac but most scorps appear to have a combination of traits from each sign.
1. Determination/Tenacity (Positive): Staying power and loyalty. Very helpful and will win over admirers. Sort of where the, "masters of the zodiac" comes to play. Anyone can attempt to rule the world, but it won't last so long as someone else has dedicated admirers.
2. Passion (Positive)
3. Intuition (Positive/Negative) Somewhat of a double-edged sword. Not many signs can perceive things as quickly as intuitive signs.
4. Jealousy - (Negative)
5. Possessiveness - (Negative)
6. Secrecy - (Positive/Negative): Somehow ties in with unpredicatibility. Dangerous yet useful. "The element of surprise."
7. Enigmatic - (Positive/slightly negative): Makes it harder for people to read/predict your actions.
8. Resourcefulness - (Very positive): While others might b**** about their problems and seek help, being resourceful comes in handy when times become unbearable. Scorps are known to have intense internal issues that very few signs can cope with without complaining and keeping their cool. This trait is very useful in business.
Kinda rush the list, but I think you see where I'm going with this.
they do have the ego for it, but i haven't really met any that i think have the leadership qualities for world domination... not to mention that many of them (the ones i know) aren't the brightest people, nor are they bright enough to even realize it
fiddlesticks-Aren't you a Cancer.
Anyway, I agree with DB.
SIL...U sound quite ideal...as usual. But thatz refreshing.
Scorps have many thingz going for them...one of them is fan-following. Winking
Jokes apart ...My guess is that they control most of the things "behind the curtain".
Sure they dont have explicit leadership qualities...But the "real" power rests with them.
A Few Samples (Living N Dead)-
1. Bill Gates.
2. Jack Welch
3. Ray Ozzie
4. Condolezza Rice
5. Hilary Clinton
6. Laura Bush
7. Mao Zedong
8. Sun Yat Sen
....
Mao is a Scorp? You sure about this?
Scorps won't rule the world as long as there are Leos and Aries in the world. We're crazy and competitive, especially Aries.
Yama...I stand corrected. He was a cap.
Makes sense.
Evil people, they are.
U will get away with that Pluto ....Winking
Now dont manufacture Ur responses based on what smileyz U like...Winking
How goez life ?....Am putting my money on the Aussies.
Ranking of signs that can take over the zodiac
1. Scorpio: Tactic: Suprise, Enigmatic, Hidden Strength, Fan-Base. (key word "hidden")
2. Aquarius: Tactic: Unpredictable, very smart, sociable, somewhat enigmatic. Strong-willed enough to keep an iron fist over everyone.
3. Leo: Tactic: Very outgoing, convincing, confident. Not as intense/extreme as #1
4. Capricorn: Tactic: Ambitious, entrepenur-like, and firm. A little to shy, pessimistic, and behind the scenes.
5. Aries: Tactic: Outgoing, aggressive, a leader. Too implusive to keep a firm grip over followers.
6. Cancer: Tactic: Mothering, ambitious, devtion. A good sense of perservation. Inner/outer toughness will appeal to others. Moods and indecisivenss are colossal detriments.
7. Taurus: Tactic: Calm, cool, collective. Willing to wait to get what they want. Very determined and strong-willed. Might let others push them around too much.
8. Gemini: Tactic: Very social and smart; outgoing, sneaky. Unable to stop spilling the beans and too changeable/unstable. Not very firm, somewhat like "whichever way the wind blows."
9. Virgo: Tactic: Very diligent and firm. Overcriticalness and little hypocrisy will piss people off.
10. Sagittarius: Tactic: Outgoing, interesting, full of life. Too irresponsibe and implusive.
11. Libra: Tactic: Very charming, appeals to people, intelligent. Indecisive, appeals too much to the people and is generally too nice.
12. Pisces: Tactic: Intuition, Mutable, Creativity. Needs to be more emotional stable and down to earth.
Yama: "fiddlesticks-Aren't you a Cancer."
yep... cancer/leo cusp if you believe in cusps.
I do! I do believe in cusps!
Actually, I thought you were a Leo at first.
am i that flaming?
You remind me of wheelhomies.
not sure who that is, but he/she must clearly be a person of great wisdom and charm
"not sure who that is, but he/she must clearly be a person of great wisdom and charm"
Perhaps, just don't let her hear you talk like that, the poor thing is a Leo, it'll go straight to her head.
leo huh? i think there's an operation she can undergo for that.
I like the way this thread evolved (for all the pleasure I got from seeing the first post, that we could rule the world) - into recognizing the fact that all the signs are capable in their own unique ways. (I will say though that my strengths are definitely more useful to me when they are hidden, which is a fairly exclusively scorpio trait). Someone said something about us not being the brightest, though, which literally made me laugh...because I've known the complete opposite to be true, and I'm not saying that just because I'm a scorp, either. ALL of my scorpio friends were extremely smart in school, went on to very challenging/powerful/intellectually stimulating jobs, regardless of the field, and not a single one of them is anything less than a successful, highly intelligent person. And I'm not boasting about this at all, but I myself was always in advanced placement classes along with a very small handful of others, almost all the way through school until I went through my lizard phase for a year or two...lol. Just illustrating my point.
I just come back from watching the Departed in Cinema..boy its great to see a fellow scorpio (Leo Dicaprio) on the big screen in action...you can soooo clearly see every emotions pass on his face..great..fab..I love the dude..oh and he shares the same birthday as me..11th Nov...Yes we are intelligent people, but not in your face intelligent..Covert operations!!...I am loving being a Scorp..wouldn't change it for the world..
Much love..

this is what i mean... you assume things, but jobs and success in school aren't necessarily related to intelligence. they may be more easily gotten from intelligence, but it is not necessarily so. your scorp narrow point of view only allows you to see what you want, and you then judge your perceptions sometimes inaccurately. not saying this towards you in particular, since obviously i don't know you or your friends, but your inability to look outside your own perceptions is a huge hindrance and is exactly what i mean. i know plenty of absolute idiots that did well in school and are "successful" in the job market. look at bush for example (yes i know he's a cancer, but he illustrates my point regardless); he is not an intellect by any means, yet somehow he managed to get through yale (legacy clause) and become the president of the usa. simply, success in any field is not always reliant on intelligence.
of course, your definition of intelligence may be radically different from my own, so it would be a moot point.
here's an example of the lack of brightness in scorps i've known:
girl in HS i was friends with was super-catholic, so she doesn't believe in using condoms. uh, HELLO?
i ask her what she would do if she got pregnant.
"i'll just get an abortion."
she also felt she was incredibly mature and intelligent.
then there's my other buddy, who feels he has to chime in on any subject regarding things he has no idea about, particularly things that happen in the middle east. he'll say something about the history of palestine/israel (like, "oh palestine has killed more israelis"), and i'll ask him how sure he is of what he's saying, since i've done much more research on the subject. he'll kind of sidestep the remark, since he knows he doesn't know anything on it, and try to argue against reality and factual events despite him not knowing one iota of what he's talking about. it's silly. accept it if you don't know much on a subject. sure, put in your 2 cents if you want, but for god's sake at least be credible, otherwise you're wasting time and my brain cells.
probably cuz i'm a loser and have no other friends
Fiddle, I realize you didn't know this when you replied, and therefore I will be patient, understanding and Phoenix-like in my response to you, but I measure intelligence mainly on maturity, emotional evolvement, etc., *also*. But that doesn't mean you can discount the fact that other kinds of intelligence exist and even CO-EXIST within some individuals along with maturity and emotional evolvement.
So you incorrectly assumed that I was saying that one kind of intelligence is better or more important than another. You stand corrected.
see what i mean about the arrogance? i love it. i haven't offered a definition of intelligence, because it's way too complicated to try to define. however, i think maturity, logic and being able to look at things in a broader context to be a major part of it. i don't mind picking apart your posts though.
you didn't say a single thing about maturity in your post; you offered very narrow standards as proof of intelligence: jobs, doing well in school, and "success" in life. why would i look into your statement any further than what you said? i'm not a mind reader and you shouldn't assume i am. don't go back and add or change or add to your meanings and say i stand corrected. simply write what you mean in your first post and this won't happen.
i could say something like this:
"being fat is weight 75 pounds over your recommended weight."
but i didn't say that being fat can include weighing 45 pounds over, even if i meant it, correct? but the standard i offered is only what i put so a reader can only assume that THAT is my standard. re-read your post and find a mention of emotional evolvement and maturity and let me know how i should interpret your post.
and when you can, tell me more about "advanced placement" classes you took in HS. that impresses me. where'd you grow up, a town of 1000?
Sorry if this is totally off the subject, but what a cute little baby!!!!!
Well, water signs generally have a problem with a certain kind of intelligence-the "airy" kind. Each sign(imo) doesn't possess the qualties of the signs that it squares in abundance, and as water signs square air signs...
I have to say, Though, I think Scorps got off easy compared to the other water signs-we don't possess the Aquarian's strokes of genius, and really, Scorpio inventors are few and far between, but inventors are rare enough as it is, so I'm not gonna cry myself to sleep because the minuscule chance that I'll invent something is slightly smaller than other people's.
Hi Scorp-in-law,
perhaps you should start another birthday thread?Tongue
emerald: what's wrong? Just been working alot... keeping my mind off of the scorp. who seems to be game playing right now...
Now what have I told you about aggressive foreplay
**rolls eyes**
Hope your ok
Winking
Did they take care of ya in the Emergency Department? No fractures or breaks? did they send you home with some good pain meds atleast, Dilaudid, Oxycontin or vicodin (make sure they give ya the 50/500 mg tablets not the 5/500) I see too often people walking out of the ED and forgetting to ask for pain meds, they later regret it. I've been trying to figure out the scorp.. he's mind playing with me. He had enough you know what's to ask me if I would just have a baby with him and we could "share the responsibility" because he wants a baby but no relationship. LMAO
The last time I sought the treatment of the ED, I asked for a shot of dilaudid in my IV "for the ride home" lol... before they removed it. I'm not superwoman and I can't tolerate pain
guess I'm good enough to a scorp for a baby making factory but not relationship. BTW I mix a good "pain cocktail" but I'd have to kill ya if I told you what was in it.. lol
I couldn't figure it out. I think it was more shock. I couldn't believe he'd be suggesting such arrangement. Like too weird for me. Maybe it's a test.
Yeah sometimes we'll push an iv pain med, than start asking the LOC (level of conscious) questions to do an assesment.... duh...
Must be those demon scorp qualities.
I got him good the last time, I went over to his place, he jumped on the phone and started talking with his buddy about football for half an hour, so just as he was finishing my friend calls, she's a nurse also, I start talking about Sub-Q's, IV starts, heparin drips, anything i can think of in nursing terminology for 30 mins, so I told her bye, hung up and he says "Well wasn't that kind of rude" and I smiled back at him and pointed at his phone and didn't say a word. i think he got the message, this may be a classic stubborn taurus thing now... have to win. It's on Scorpio VS Taurus
that's probably why he's stopped calling and e-mailing all of the sudden.
Oooooooh get you!
F-Stick:
I don't give even the slightest shit what you think about my post, but you needed to know that you were, and still are, wrong. I'm sorry for you that your friendships are so pathetic, but that has nothing to do with this Scorpio, that's a problem you have...probably because you act like such a fucking asshole smile You might want to work on that. In the meantime, until you can develop some actual social skills and talk to me with a modicum of respect, could you please not respond to my posts? I only like to engage with intelligent people on these boards...(in other words, shut the fuck up. Please.) smile
Now although you guys do have the potential to be rulers of the zodiac, there are other serious issues that could keep you from getting there, these include:
A sense of entitlement

The need to destroy good things for others because things are going bad for you.
Getting back at people for small misunderstandings
Intolerance (Seeing a person as your enemy because they choose not to be what you want them to.)
Hypocrisy (A dislike for people with egos yet having one yourself.)
All these my not be true in everyone, some Scorps may have grown/evolved out of these. Otherwise, these are a few things I've noticed
cry me a river phoenix... but i fear you'd drown in it with your massive ego. i notice you didn't cite where i was allegedly wrong; perhaps because there is no such possible citation from your post? ah, that may be it. i could care less about developing social skills over an internet message board with you; boo freaking hoo. of course, your high and mighty attitude towards your incredibly narrow point of view is just what i'm talking about--how quaintly ironic. i love how you are so easily riled. oh, but aren't cancers supposed to be the crybabies? hahaha

MM,
"Leo DiCaprio is a tool!"
Yes, he most definately is a douchebag. You could see and smell it on him.
Frig-stick:
The reason I didn't cite where you were shamefully, laughably wrong is because (I don't know how many times I have to say this) ... I don't care, you deserve not one more second of my time. Figure it out for yourself...or don't... But again, second request: do not address me.
Grow the fuck up smile
Leo is a tool? explain...
I lub him...
