   I said Libra this time but that may just be because I’m very mutable and in the mood to agree.

   And maybe it’s because they project so much all of the partners in their world that they are hard to see.

   Where’s the “I have Libra and can’t decide” option when I need it?

   Scorpio comes across as having a hard shell but when you get to know them they have that very sensitive underbelly… but not many people get to see that side of them.

   Virgos are seen as uptight and persnicketty, I think…

   I’ve dated two Virgos, and both men were wonderful to me. Absolutely wonderful. Warm, loving, very good with buying flowers and saying nice things, and actually very much the opposite of critical. Also excellent lovers.

   I said Gemini because you never know which one will show up.

   But really, any of us can be ornery, thus misunderstood.

   I’m very indecisive, except I don’t have Libra anywhere.

   Sagittarius. I’ve heard a lot of people say that Sagittarius’ seem that they have no purpose in life. They are also seen as being indifferent and aloof, but their way of displaying affection isn’t mushy and over the top.

   Capricorns are really misunderstood as well. For example, my grandfather was ” cold ” and everyone thought he was ” cold “. However, with time I realized that he wasn’t cold, he was just a man who preferred to show that he cared and that he loved his family through actions and not repetitive I love yous. That’s something that I adore about Capricorns, their actions speak louder than their words.

   I think Leos are misunderstood too. Their arrogance is a constant, but everything is beyond pride with them. And to me, their egos are sensitive regardless of what they project because a person who automatically falls back on their pride hides behind that wall of defense.

   I’m not sure if I ever misunderstood Scorpios. I totally get them and I always have. I find it so weird when I read about their hard shells because I’ve never encountered it.

   Virgos are misunderstood, at least the women. Everything about them shouts stability and certainty to me, but they can really cover up their mutable nature with logic.

   I said Capricorn, but I also would have picked Scorpio and Virgo. All three have “hard shells” and can come off as cold and unreachable. But look underneath, and you find very complex people, hiding behind those hard shells so they don’t expose their vulnerability.

   ANY sign can be seen as misunderstood, but I find that the Fire signs, the “let it all hang out” signs, are the easiest to “get”. And I don’t say that to put those signs down, because I’m a Fire Sun with a Fire ASC.

   I didn’t vote ’cause I really don’t know, but I figured Scorpio would be getting top billing in that department. Hell, I don’t even understand myself most of the time. 1st House Scorpio stellium - Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars & Neptune. Somebody help me!

   I think all of them are misunderstood in equal doses. That’s why we love Astrology, right?

    Are people with an ascendant opposite their sun sign misunderstood?

    Are there other common combinations that lead to complexities that are difficult to fathom?

    No sign (even Scorpio) has gotten more crap than Virgo. Even most of the “positives” of Virgo turn out to be backhanded compliments.

    Yep, I think Virgos get dumped on the most, and, for me, Pisces are the hardest to understand.

    I think all of the signs are misunderstood in some way.

    Had to laugh at “I hate astrology”. Who hates astrology that’s coming here?

    I really think Scorpio is most frequently misunderstood. Someone says, “Oh, you’re a Scorpio? I hate Scorpios!” I hear that a lot. People don’t realize a lot of the depth and various facets. It is very popular to think Scorpios are crappy human beings. As to Virgos, someone once told me that they were a Virgo and said “not that it’s very impressive since their servile, OCD, secretarial types.” I think the misunderstanding of Virgos is narrow minded, not as malicious. As to Pisces, I feel like they’re always being misunderstood not because of the sign description, but because they’re so hard to grab at. The misunderstanding of signs usually has to do with the belief that one or the other is “bad.”

    “he was just a man who preferred to show that he cared and that he loved his family through actions and not repetitive I love yous.”

    A great description of Capricorn dads like mine.

    “I hate Scorpios!”

    I did a video on this over the weekend. I will get it up here pretty quick..

    i voted vigro. ppl see virgos as uptight perfectionists when virgos are often very warm and giving and helpful. yes, vigros see very clearly what’s wrong with things so they get rapped as critical, while totally dismissing the fact that virgos very willingly pitch in to right what’s wrong without cause other than to help.

    Cancer gets the worst rap. People describe cancers as if we were all women with perpetual pms. We get the label “domestic” which everyone knows is code for frumpy and boring. Check out this blog…where is the post for Cancer quotes? There is no post ’cause people think we are at home crying over the latest Lifetime movie. Leo got two posts. Virgo has multiple quote posts too.

    Yes, I’m a cancer and yes, I’m currently PMSing and being bitchy. I’m not helping my case any, I know.

    ;P

    Replying again…

    The Scorpios I know are private people, and yes, they give off a frightening air. But they’re also very loyal, hardworking, and devoted to their families. My dad and my FIL are both Scorpios.

    My little Scorpio daughter is the most affectionate thing. You wouldn’t think this about Scorpio, even the little ones. (One book said they’re all outcasts and unwanted!) She’s sweet and lovable–but VERY bossy! She has a Cancer Moon, Leo ASC, and she has a Grand Trine in Water.

    All Scorpios are evil serial-killing sex maniacs. Of course they are! And all Aquarians are wonderful people who mean nothing but good for humanity, so if they stole your car after inviting themselves to stay over at your house for a week (free!), that’s just their way of helping out; Leos are just generous and friendly… utterly self-absorbed narcissistic egomaniacs so just worship at their altar like they were actually sungods and everything will be cool; Virgos live to serve… themselves! but they can keep it undercover with that candystriper BS about helping others; Libras aren’t sure what their problem is, but it’s either your fault or their fault and it’s your fault so they’re willing to help you fix your problem; Taureans can’t see past the potato they’re stuffing in their face to read this to complain when I note that they’re a bunch of fat, greedy bastards; Arians are brave, forthright, steadfast, loud-mouthed morons; Pisceans are very spiritual and in touch with the universe, especially when they are really really high on the stash they stole from your house; Capricorns work very hard their whole miserable lives to uphold standards of destroying people and they’re going to explain it to you in detail, you stupid ghit; Sagittarians are sex-positive and open to new experiences, which is why they have to fuck (you) and run (away - but they will leave a note telling you, in complete honesty, why you suck!); Geminis are kind enough to lie and tell you that you aren’t an idiot, unless they forget because they got fascinated with some idiot toy and they just blab it out; and of course Cancers will eat at your heart until your chest is hollow because they love you just like Mommie Dearest would.

    *LOL* Take a bow, Max! That was fabulous!

    I totally need an “I’m a Libra and can’t decide” button. So instead I chose “I hate astrology!” I just don’t have the archetypes down enough to decide who is the most misunderstood.
