Do you have an emphasis on the Cardinal signs? Think you can control others? Har! Best think again. (from 2007)

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.
Gawd!!! That’s great!! Curious? What was her sign? 
This was just as funny the second time!
PixieDust- in an very odd and…..inspirational way? LOL!
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…
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.
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.
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:::
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 :)))
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)
LOL @ Kashmiri
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.
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?
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!:)
I never realized Libras are control freaks.
And this story is Shocking..Wow
My Saturn is in Aries(cardinal) and all my Virgo plantes are freaking out…LOL
Wow
So, did she take on another guy just for sex? Or just to rebel?
I’m sure it was not for emotional intimacy.
That’s a great story lol.
I read an article about a year ago, can’t remember where, called The Secret Lives of Virgos or something along those lines. I’m betting Ms. Windowsill was a Virgo. :p
Wow!!! I gave up trying to control others a lonnnnnnnng time ago,lol it never works.
By the way Elsa your hair looks cute did you get it cut recently????
Well Elsa, my face is red! LOL
It was a good article, and I found it to be very true!
Marianne - no need to be embarrassed. Now if you’d have claimed you wrote it or come up with the concept, I’d have been highly pissed but as it is - no harm / no foul and nothing to be embarrassed of. In fact if you search this blog you will pull up several pieces on that theme..
I have a terrible memory…but at least I remembered the content, if not the author lol.
Haha! That reminded me of that chaucer story as well. But he didn’t shag her butt. Just kissed it.
It also reminded me how relieved I am to be out of a controlling relationship.
As a person with a lot of Libra, I still believe the world would be a better place if everyone did as I instructed, but it is not to be
As for those cappys who want to control but are less successful because they lack the libran charm, why don’t you go cry about it, sourpants?!!
I think the one with the ass out the window is more likely to be the Cardinal sign. Being action oriented and all. Action. Heheh.
LOL!
In the words of my mostly Aries Cardinal T-square boyfriend: “Why bother trying to control people ? It’s such a big efford for an uncertain outcome.” Having spent years with a mostly Libra Cardinal T-Square (and if you wonder, my Moon in Capricorn is compliting the Grand Cross in both cases, so, there you go…) who had his controlling side, I feel truely blessed being with a person who isn’t excersising his control freakish qualities on people, but rather using them constructively at work.
As for me (multiple Libra besides the Capricorn Moon), I guess that with the 12th house Saturn I’m far to busy controlling myself to bother with others.
Out a window?! The Pisces part of me is like EW THAT’S GROSS! THAT’S GROSS! but the Scorpio part of me is like, “I think I have to try that.”

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.
