1 Minute Astrology

Do you have an emphasis on the Cardinal signs? Think you can control others? This goat says, best think again.

    AHHHHHH! No way! That’s stuff that dreams are made of. Um, I mean…ha ha!
    I think Caps get a bad rep, too. A control freak could be anyone. I work with a Libra who’s the biggest control freak ever…nah, nice ol Libra?
    I adore Capricorns. Plus, they make great lovers.

    ROFL!!! Oh yeah, this is so true. Controlling others is a HUGE waste of time and energy. Pluto transiting over my Scorpio Mars & ASC was what put the final touches on my efforts to control others. :) So don’t even attempt to do that anymore . . .

    In a very odd and not-actually-applicable-to-my-life way, this story is totally inspirational.

    Where there’s a will, there really IS a way!! TeeHee!!!

    lol…that was hilarious. I guess she really got her way! It must have been quite a turn on to rebel like that ;) Did he ever find out what was going on??

    I’ve got a shitload of cardinal signs, and I’ve learned this is true. Easier to get what you want by controlling yourself than others

    holy shit… I hope it was a low window.

  6. Anna says on 3/12/08 at 4:34 pm:

    Gawd!!! That’s great!! Curious? What was her sign? :P

  7. Elsa says on 3/12/08 at 4:36 pm:

    Anna - I don’t know.

  8. spinner says on 3/12/08 at 5:37 pm:

    This was just as funny the second time!

    PixieDust- in an very odd and…..inspirational way? LOL!

    Rebellious story! I love it.

    Great story! Terrific!
    Hope I will never forget.
    Thank you so much!

    I think it sucks that the guy was controlling but I think it’s equally controlling to stay in a relationship when you’re unhappy then cheat on your gf/bf/whatnot. It’s conveniently pointing to the other party and blaming them…

  12. ewinbee says on 3/13/08 at 2:04 pm:

    Uncle Hannah: controlling people are usually inspired by insecurity. And controlling behavior can inspire a LOT of anger… just a huge amount of it.

    It’s kind of instinctive, when you hit the breaking point, to direct all that anger right where it most hurts. That’s the insecure point of the controlling person. Who would know that point better than the person being controlled?

    I won’t say it’s right, but I will say that what happened was predictable.

    kashmiri, i agree. the worst part about libra control freaks is that they’re usually very savvy about how to appear pleasant so if you’re on their ‘list’ you get a very different impression of them than do other people who don’t know them as well. i <3 cappys too, although i might be biased.

  14. Gem says on 7/3/08 at 8:46 am:

    The cardinal signs are definately control freaks. Not always in bad ways, but yeah. I have a few caps and peeps with strong libra stelliums who are a bit of ‘my way or the highway’.

    Cracks me up.

    I’m gonna throw in the academic note here: anyone read Chaucer’s The Miller’s Tale? (It’s the REALLY naughty one they don’t let you read in high school English.) The similarities are stunning. This is a tale as old as time…one way or another people get what they want if they want it enough.

    :-)

  16. Snapdragon says on 7/3/08 at 10:13 am:

    LOL, that is an outrageous story!

    I tell myself that all the time (maybe to convince myself? you know us Scorpios…) I am trying to make myself feel better. Sometimes it helps.

    @S: Ahhhh, but you read it anyway! :o)
    :::wink wink:::

  17. Conny says on 7/3/08 at 12:04 pm:

    And one night while she was on the window with her lover, the football game was over and her husband went to the bedroom. He opened the door and walked in, only to see that his other game was over too…
    Thank you Elsa, great story LOL :)))

  18. kashmiri says on 7/3/08 at 12:08 pm:

    Ah ha, s, but they let you read it in 2nd year college English (where it may become more useful fodder…er, I mean *knowledge* cough cough)

  19. Snapdragon says on 7/3/08 at 12:13 pm:

    LOL @ Kashmiri

  20. s says on 7/3/08 at 12:23 pm:

    kashmiri-

    Yeah, but in most dorms one can hardly perform anything clandestinely, so the lesson is wasted. In this instance the girlfriend’s “discretion” is almost charming compared to the average shenanigans happening at a state college. Where this might be really useful is at a more *erhm* conservative college. Of course, one wouldn’t get to read the Miller’s Tale there… A shame.

  21. Lilly says on 7/3/08 at 4:08 pm:

    LMAO!! OMG, I think that woman is my hero! hahaha…you know, I am heavy w/Cardinal signs, but I don’t enjoy controlling others *in that way*. In fact, I would feel utterly wrong if I tried to control the ones I cared about or loved. However! I do love being a boss, or bossing around the people I work with…so, maybe that’s how I get it out of my system? ;)

  22. Little Miss Hermit says on 7/4/08 at 3:50 am:

    I have 4 planets in Libra, and it can be “my way or the highway” with me sometimes. Except I don’t really care whether others will follow or not. If I see that something is the only right thing to do or something that needs to be done and others don’t agree, I’ll just go ahead and do it anyway. It’s probably down to Uranus on the Midheaven and Mars conjunct Pluto:)

    And great story:) I actually had a similar reaction myself, some 10 years ago;) Not out the window, though - Moon in Taurus requires more comfort than that!:)
