“How do you make a Scorpio…”
Er… you don’t.

“You’re going to be a decent person, when?”

I recorded this in 2008. With Saturn going into Libra it is newly relevant. Does the manner in which you leave one relationship impact the next? Does the trail of bodies behind you mean anything?

I wrote this in 2004. It’s my sister and I on the phone, close to 20 years ago. We’re talking about a man I was dating and my yet-to-be-born daughter who my sister had seen psychically.

The man has his Sun, Mercury, Venus, Saturn and the Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio, some of that square Pluto rising in Leo.  More astrology sprinkled throughout.

The man is an actor and a singer and a very talented one at that. “XXXXX” is my sister’s husband at the time. I never liked him so I blotted out his name in all my stories.  He was also a Scorpio.

I wrote this in 2003 or so. Pulling it up because someone mentioned dating and Gemini. I am about 28 years old in this story and I was dating ’round the zodiac at the time.

He was a Gemini with a Leo rising and an Aries Moon. We were another match made in hell but he had Mars in Leo conjunct my Venus which makes for a sexual phenomena. Due this we both hung in longer than we would have otherwise. When I heard, “Get it while you can”, and I it seriously.

Regarding the blog about using astrology to filter people, born from the advice blog for this gal having trouble in relationships, Marly asked (in 2006):

“… So, anyone whose Saturn aspects your personal planets should be avoided? Even the “good” aspects such as sextiles or trines? Also, what about people whose Saturn falls on your 5th, 7th or 11th house?”

I wanted to respond.

I wrote this in 2006 in response to the comments on the “She’s Destructive” advice posts…

I thought I’d tell the back story to that and elaborate a bit. My sister and I have studied astrology since we were kids. Some years ago, maybe 15 years ago, she told me that she hated people with Saturn in Sagittarius.

As you can see, it’s my whole family who is not politically correct buy in any case, I looked at her and laughed, “Could it be that you’re a Pisces with a Sadge Moon?”

She raised her eyebrow because this had not occurred to her. Classic Pisces oblivion.

Speaking of hair, here’s an old story…

I was dating a guy once, a Sagittarius with a Scorpio Moon. He was a very good example of both Sadge and Scorpio. He was well traveled and he read everything, particularly psych and self help up to and including Dr. Laura which pretty much floored me.

A Dr. Laura book in someone’s bedroom might normally indicate a conservative bent but in his case it was expansive. You don’t have to agree with someone. It can just be interesting to read their views. That right there is textbook Jupiter. It’s how you stay out of a vacuum which is the job of all Sagittarians but anyway he also has this Scorpio Moon all twisted up and bent. Continue reading Hair! That Damned Hair Of Mine!

“He comes over at midnight? That’s pretty late to be comin’ over? Didn’t she give him the Elsa in a pinch speech?” the soldier asked regarding one of my friends.

“Don’t know that’s what he’s doing. Don’t think he’s using her in a pinch. Could be but it doesn’t seem that way to me. He could be but I cant tell if it’s her or if it’s him.”

He stared.

Dracula the Scorpio was an actor who lived in the artist section of the city, on the top floor of his building (the 13th floor). Scorpio doesn’t like to live under people; they prefer a high perch. This is not to lord it over others. They just want to maintain their own privacy but have the ability to see into your backyard. Drac had four planets in Scorpio and make no mistake, he could really exude. His Leo rising gave him dramatic ability,and a pronounced stage presence. My Venus in Leo made a fine complement.

One night we were in his apartment and we got into a fight. Our fights were intense, passionate, and highly theatrical. We had scripts embedded in our psyches, damned near. Scenes right out of a movie and a good one, no kidding. I was 30 at the time, so a seasoned actress.

One time, I went on a date with a double Cancer man. Cancer = home, family, roots, food.

He took me to dinner at a restaurant that was somebody’s converted home. All during dinner he told me about the family that had lived there. He told me their names, and detailed histories with dates of various happenings. He outlined the whole family tree.

He told me about the flood, the wipeout, the son taking over, and so forth. He told me where the kitchen was located in the original house before the son of the son converted it to a family business, I mean. “The one whose highchair once sat in this very room…”
