    The generic question mark is a place where your avatar should go. Perhaps you never had an avatar in the first place and I believe even a bad avatar is better than no avatar. The thing is you can try them out and see how you feel. Then if you don't like the feeling dump it for a new one.

    I have a folder with about 50 evil clowns in it, including the one you posted.

    Guess what I found? Anyway where's the fun in not being a little more personal in your choice of avatar? Just about any picture on your computer can be your avatar as this forum software will resize it for you.

    Clearly you haven't been visiting this forum for some time, but I felt a need to respond to your post.

    I truly appreciate the research you did on this subject because I agree most of those under the Scorpio sign tend to suffer from this disorder. Before reading this, I thought I was the only one who observed the connection.

    I've been in a relationship with a narcissist for roughly 7 years. Although I did not immediately recognized the symptoms, over time it became more apparent. I'm a Pisces and as most are aware, those under this sign are extremely sensitive creatures. Experiencing the wrath of a narcissist (especially one born under a Scorpio sign), is very intense. There are ups and downs to the relationship. Most of the downs caused by self- pride, lack of trust, jealously and insecurity (on the Scorpio's end). The upside is the friendship, deep love, kindness and loyalty. At this point in time, the relationship is somewhat balanced. Down the road, I cannot say....
    ******
    Those who immediately dismiss the idea, probably haven't done enough research or personally experienced it emotionally/psychologically. I do take into consideration others with a completely different sign do suffer from narcissism. Truly childhood experiences, genetic predisposition and substance abuse play a huge role. The Scorpio sign is just so closely connected to this disorder, it's just really hard to ignore.

    Again, thank you.

    ... are probably fully aware that astrology, and all of its claims, is complete nonsense.

    Your right about me not posting to much lately. But I still get notified when one of my old topics get a new post to it. I'm not sure any one astrological sign has a greater number of narcissistic personality disorders in it than any other. However if you are keeping track of astrological signs of the people in your life for whatever purpose it can really seem like I hit the nail on the head, if you've having similar problems with a significant other that happens to be a Scorpio. I've met a lot of Scorpio women in the last 15 years and many of them were obvious drama queens even if they weren't quite narcissistic or sociopathic. The biggest problem is you never seem to realize the person you are getting into bed with has any bad personality disorders until it's to late and you really do love them. Now you always want to give them the benefit of the doubt. Do you notice that most of her excuses for the bad shit that happens always seem to have just enough plausibility, that you end up giving her the benefit of the doubt and move on until the next time.

    There is no cure for this problem and you will keep trying way past the time you should have ended the relationship. I know this from my own personal experience and I predict you will know it from your own experience too. Sorry I couldn't help you out more, but knowing what the problem is, is better than not knowing.

    I think the ancient philosophers of astrology were onto something. I do think there is something to astrology that is uncanny but it has to be taken esoterically and with a grain of salt as there are so many unknown factors as well.

    Because of other factors, this is why you can't tell if two people will even be attracted or like each other just by looking at natal or synastry charts. Genetics? Culture? Free will?

    However, it does tend to show how two interact, effect and feel if two choose to engage more indepthly.

    You can't just look at the sun sign but the whole natal chart as well as consider genetics and state of evolution of the person. I think there is something deeper to ones identity or 'soul' than just astrology. It's an influence but how well you identify with all or certain aspects of your chart will also be determined by genetics too. Some you may not identify with as your personality traits even though they are an energetic influence. How you choose to express it is also dependent on your level of maturity. I've often noticed that those who embody and express everything conventionally denoted in a chart, good or bad, tend to be less evolved and people who react and let everything (stimuli) outside determine their identity and action/reaction, even with aspects they can personally control or transmute more positively. Many or most are this way (unconscious or irresponsible).

    This is why in interpersonal relationships synastry (primarily) and composite play out as noted, unless you are dealing with someone more evolved, mature and aware.

    For instance, if a synastry shows bad communication, the more evolved person would have the sanity and sense to be able to consider the others point of view even if they don't agree whereas the less evolved individual will express this aspect in the lowest form by narrow-mindedness, prejudice, incomprension, rudeness etc. This is why astrology is only a part (influence) of a person's character. You can liken it to ones 'lot' they were born into but is it who they really are? I think that shows in their choices and behavior in how they express influences/energies. For instance, two people may have a brutal natal aspect and one may express it negatively whereas another disowns it or uses it for good. Evidently, they are not the same type of people as who you are is far deeper than astrology.

    Some aspects of a natal chart are not in ones control (current lot in life), just as you can't pick your family, whether born rich or poor etc. Some aspects will show relative blessings and deprivations/limitations as well as circumstances you will just have to deal with that are lifelong. These can sometimes be mitigated by progressions and transits to open up better chances at opportune times and vice versa.

    Going back to interpersonal astrology though, there are forces beyond our control and that shows in composite. You may have great synastry with another but if the composite shows forces or circumstances will come between, that's how it will play out. I've never seen it fail. Alternately, the synastry is incompatible but composite shows two can be, is often indicative of abusive or unhealthy associations.
    The connections and relationships that are both healthy and last tend to have both good synastry (compatibility) and composite (enduring). But again, genetics, esoteric (evolved or unevolved soul?) and natal chart are also factors. A natal chart may show one inclined to solitude or even promiscuity so in some cases, it doesn't matter how well the synastry may be if the natal shows one to dislike commitment or prone to deception etc.

    That's not surprising however I was hoping for a bit more of an interesting story behind your comment. How about it? I mean this was your first post so welcome to the forum and this topic did make enough of an impression on you to join and post.
