SCORPIO Vs the Zodiac : The Manipulative power

How the Scorpio manipulates 

Scorpions are very passionate people who embody the principle "all or nothing". They cannot bear ambiguity, nuance or hypocrisies. They fight, if need be, to the death so that the truth comes to light and others take a stand. It is no surprise then that they preside over the eighth house of the zodiac. Encounters with them are a particular challenge for each zodiac sign, because Scorpios put their cherished principles and practices to the test. 

Scorpio and Scorpio 

As always with the first sign, there is a deep mutual understanding here and an ideological agreement. Unfortunately, this is not always enough to establish a harmonious relationship between two Scorpios. Because both require absolute sincerity and are hardly diplomatic, it can cause serious conflicts. One Scorpio manipulates the other by either breaking through his reserve by consciously betraying him - the worst offense for the Scorpio, for whom there is either all or nothing, friend or foe - or irritating his combativeness so that the Scorpio gets lost in senseless and nerve-wracking conflicts. 

Scorpio and Libra 

For the Libra, the Scorpio is the second sign. They meet on the material level of self-esteem, ownership and the need for security. This is about roots in the tangible world. Material possessions are not very important for the Libra. Spiritual and aesthetic values​​are more important to the Libra. Yet Libras have an often well-hidden, great need for security when it comes to their physical environment. If Scorpios wants to manipulate the Libra, this is exactly where they start. The Scorpio lay out scenarios that threaten the Libra’s sense of the security, talks about money problems with the Libra that do not exist and builds on the Libra's inability to tackle problems in a specific manner.

 

The differences between October and November Scorpios are nuanced but can be fascinating to explore! 

1. October Scorpios (October 23 – October 31)

• Ruling Planet: Pluto with a stronger influence from Mars.
• Characteristics: October Scorpios are typically Mars-influenced, making them assertive, ambitious, and action-oriented. They are quick to take charge and often exhibit a warrior-like spirit, given Mars' energetic and determined nature.
• Personality Traits: These Scorpios tend to be highly independent, direct, and have a sharp edge. They can be impulsive and prefer to tackle challenges head-on. This Mars influence makes them fiery and more likely to have intense bursts of passion or anger.
• Strengths: Courageous, self-driven, and confident. October Scorpios often exude a magnetic charm that is hard to resist.
• Challenges: They may struggle with impatience or a tendency to become confrontational, as they lean into Mars' aggressive energy.

2. November Scorpios (November 1 – November 21)

• Ruling Planet: Pluto with less influence from Mars, particularly after November 12.
• Characteristics: November Scorpios are more deeply influenced by Pluto’s transformative and mysterious energy. They tend to embody Scorpio’s traditional qualities of depth, intuition, and emotional intensity.
• Personality Traits: These Scorpios are often more introspective, patient, and methodical. They are less likely to be openly confrontational but are intensely perceptive and can be deeply analytical. They hold a quieter, yet just as powerful, intensity.
• Strengths: Compassionate, introspective, and highly intuitive. November Scorpios are often more open to transformation and may have an easier time navigating emotional complexity.
• Challenges: Their deep emotional nature can lead to periods of secrecy, possessiveness, or holding grudges, as they have a tendency to feel things more deeply.

Decan Influence

• October Scorpios (1st Decan, Oct 23 – Nov 1): Stronger Mars influence, adding directness and a competitive streak.
• Early November Scorpios (2nd Decan, Nov 2 – Nov 11): Intensely Plutonic, with a unique ability to probe beneath the surface, often with a more mysterious and private demeanor.
• Late November Scorpios (3rd Decan, Nov 12 – Nov 21): Co-ruled by the Moon, adding a touch of emotional depth, sensitivity, and an even stronger intuitive side.
