That explains SO MUCH about the movies Joaquin makes and why he’s so unbelievably hot in them all!!

Joaquin is a super-scorpio, stellium and everything. It doesn’t get any sexier/enigmatic than that

Its always more interesting to find out what’s going on beneath the surface… not always fun, but always more interesting. Such is the life of a Scorpio.

I am also a Scorpio Rising but and Aries…and they say Scorpio Rising tends to dominate the whole chart because it’s position is so powerful. I feel very powerful and invincible alot of the time…and I constantly feel that I am different. I don’t TRY to be different, I just know I am. I have an incredible feel for things and people and I feel I have tremendous potential..

The soldier and I are having great success with a 9 year old therapist.

My Scorpio man: “I think I scare people.”

Yes honey, you certainly do. But that’s cause they can’t handle your intensity.

Speaking of all or nothing:

Scorpio friend: Toni, I’m fat.

Me: No you’re not, you’re chubby. Very chubby.

Scorpio friend: No, Toni, you’re either fat or you’re not!

Me: Whoa, dude calm down, I was just being nice.

Scorpio friend: I would rather you stop bullshitting me Toni and tell it straight to my face. I don’t like it when people kiss my ass.

Me: Gee, XX, you’re tough!

Scorpio friend: I’m just pulling your chain, I like you Toni, it’s just that I don’t like it when people feel like they have to put on a facade to make me happy, I’m a straight shooter! I tell it to your face! I know you’re trying to be a friend so I guess I’m sorry for blowing up on you!

it’s just that I don’t like it when people feel like they have to put on a facade to make me happy, I’m a straight shooter!

This is so true! I had a very similar conversation with my step-daughters when we were first getting to know each other. They were used to sucking up to their Aries mom by telling her how good she looked and when they did the same to me, I told them I was well aware I no longer looked like I did at 30 but was fine with that. Both little Gemini mouths dropped open in shock!

I have Scorpio rising with Mars/Mercury conjunct it – and a VERY low tolerance for brown-nosing behaviors. If someone wants/needs something from me, just ASK! Unless I’m having a Libra day, the answer will be yes or no . . .

I think I just became a Jodie Foster fan.

(I like her quote, as well).

“Can we just cut the bullshit? It’s either on or off. I know no in between so quit fence sitting, and let’s get this done.”

Ha, Ro, this is exactly my way of thinking, although I’m not a Scorpio, or Scorpionic. Only one planet ( Neptune) in Scorpio but I do have 8th house Sun and Venus, and Pluto is pretty strong in my chart (it’s conjunct my Ascendant and aspects almost every planet in my chart, including 8th house Sun and Venus).

I love Scorpios. My sister-in-law is a Scorpio Sun. She’s a social worker and she’s great at penetrating right to the heart of things, whether it’s someone’s mood, motivations, whatever.

The men that came into my life who I’ve had instant, intense sexual attractions to have all been Scorpio suns.

And Joaquin Phoenix is excellent.

Joaquin watched his big brother River die of a massive drug cocktail OD in front of a trendy hollywood nightclub (owned by Johnny Depp at the time?)
It broke my heart. River was amazing and had barely started what could have been an excellent career. That gift seems to run in the family. Though Joaquin’s edgier. Way edgier. Which is interesting because River was pretty edgy for his time. But he never had the chance to play mature adult roles, either.
Not surprising Joaquin’s a Scorpio. He seems to have some potent internal strength.

I like scorpio’s because they don’t tend to waste time with trivial stuff

I’m with you on River Phoenix, wyrdling. Such a talent. It’s so sad to see anyone die at such a young age. Whenever I revisit some of the movies he made back then it’s so obvious how much potential he had. Joaquin definitely has even more of an edge, more intensity.

Ro, Mars and Pluto in Scorpio is definitely enough to make you Scorpionic I think. Two planets in the sign they rule (well, Mars co-rules). And you’ve got a 3rd planet there, so…yeah.

I always thought my “just walk in the door and don’t waste time walking around the building first” attitude was my impatient Aries Moon and Mercury, lol. The Pluto energy definitely makes me want to analyze and get to the core of the matter of things though.

Tiberius Ceasar:”Let them hate me so long as they respect me.”

I don’t know, I know everyone is singin praises ‘n all… but Scorpios scare me.lol.They do,I mean I have Pluto directly on my Sun and an 8th house Mars (in Cancer), but I don’t know if that equips me with quite the intensity that may be required to truly understand them.

An ex-friend who has Sun in Scorp. was very jealous of my looks, to the point of throwing little jabs at me when my defenses were down.She seemed fixated with my style and something about the word “beautiful” in particular, when others used it to describe me would set her off and she would get insulting but hide it with humor.

Funnily, I had the extact same with a Leo friend( they don’t know eac other) with Scorp. venus (and possibly ascendant as well).What got me was that she is gorgeous herself.I put a lot of distance between myself and these two.I guess that’s my ‘sideways’ Mars in Cancer.

Let’s not even TALK about the Scorpio sun/venus guy I dated for a hot second.Ugly.

Hmmm…although…two of my favorite cousins are Scorpios and we get along swimmingly.My little brother has a Scorpio moon and we understand each other’s emotions (well…to the extent that he lets me in).And, my boyfriend’s Scorpio moon satisfies my intensity in relationships…maybe you guys are not that bad after all.Lmao.

neptunian – found your comment. Sorry for delay, I had to go out of town.

… Joaquin Phoenix is a scorpio… No wonder I like him!
