🌡~My take on scorpio placements ~

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

☆ scorpio in the 7th house- usually get cheated on by their partners. Go through Toxic/ narcissistic partners at some point in their lives. 3rd party situations. Partners lying and deceiving you.

☆ scorpio mars- usually center of attention (attention grabber not seeker). Females with this placement tend to attract jealously from their so called friends or just other people in general. Men tends to sexualize them alot, Might have spread rumors about them at some point.

Men with this placement, if underdeveloped, tends to be toxic af. The need to control everyone and everything around them is just awful. Fuck around a lot. Sleeping with different different people.

If developed, good achievers. Very strategic mindset. Usually get what they want in life. Bulletproof mindset. Very good at talking to people but still maintaining boundaries. Loyal.

☆scorpio suns- idk why and how, but when people get to know that someone is a scorpio, they get weirdly attracted to them??? Like staring at them, wanting to know them. Intimidated by them.

☆scorpio sun/moons- have a good sense of humour. They can make anyone laugh. And with this, they tend to attract alot of people who wants to be in a relationship with them.

☆ scorpio venus- won't say a loyal lover HOWEVER when they love love, they are loyal 100%. Underdeveloped can lie about being in love.

☆retrograde scorpio venus- feels unlovable. Extreme trust issues. Highly sensitive. Very very very high on trust. You know how they say scorpios take tests? With this placement? Tests x 100. Don't give 2nd chances. It's very very difficult for them to be vulnerable. People have rejected them alot. Might have been body shamed or criticised for looks. They feel like they don't deserve to be loved.

☆scorpio stellium in the natal chart- highly intuitive. Usually sees things beforehand. POWER. THE DARKNESS. THE EYES!!! Very beautiful people inside out. However they don't trust easily but if they do, for the love of lord, don't break it cuz you'll be coming back again and again to win them over.

☆scorpio moon- been through some serious shit. Been through hell and back with themselves. They understand people very well. However, they don't get the same understanding in return. They can see right through you so don't f with them. Hate mind games.

☆scorpio rising- very very intimidating. Females with this placement tends to attract jealousy in any form. People want to dominate you so bad. People telling them to tone it down. Basically people don't like your mindset, it triggers them cuz they can't have power over you. Hates 2 faced people. And the irony is, they usually deal with 2 faced people.

☆scorpio lilith- highly seductive. Very attractive. Sex appeal. Feelings run deep for them. Had people who wanted them only for sexual pleasures, wanted to touch them in any way. High vibration scorpio lilith is THE HEALER. also I've seen yall had some near death experiences?? Or witnessed someone dying in front of you.

☆ scorpio mercury- moves in silence. Very strategic and careful. Committed to anything they put their mind into. Always ready to be one on one while fighting. Their way of talking is very intense and mysterious which makes people wanna know how do you think like that. When they say something they really mean it. They take their time. Expects the worst. They figure things out so fast so don't even think of gaslighting them.

☆Scorpio in the 10th house- achievers. From a young age they had an insight of what they will become. Hold power in their work environment. If your a student, your classmates want to steal your notes, they feel envious that you make pretty good notes of whatever you're studying cuz yall go in depth and make pretty good observations of the topics. Authority figures.

☆scorpio in the 5th- gets extreme reactions from people. Ofcourse with any other placements, attracts jealousy. (Bruh I don't get it, what's with the scorpios dealing with alot of jealousy???? Like that's tiring) Grabs attention in parties, get togethers or any form of social gatherings. Might have dealt with people wanting to take your partners. Might have overly strict parents or very fucked up family issues.

That's it for now🫶🏻

(2/2)  “My mother died on July 6th, 2005.  One day toward the end of her life, we were in the subway together, carrying heavy packages, and I could see she was exhausted.  She turned to me and said: ‘A ganzeh leben is a schlep.’  Which means: ‘All of life is a schlep.’  And for a moment I felt her pain.  I realized I could still love her.  She couldn’t love me, but I could love her.  Despite all the abuse she’d given me, I could feel her pain.  I resurrected this old photo after her death.  She’s with her first husband.  It was weeks before he was taken away. She’s only twenty years old in this picture.  That gorgeous face.  That youth.  How could I possibly hate her the same way?  It’s unfathomable.  Not that she was right to be cruel, but it’s unfathomable what she went through.  I once helped her type a memoir to get reparations from the Germans. At the end of her story, she wrote: ‘It was a life of horror.  Having lost everything and everyone, I’d given up my struggle to live.  And at that time, it would have been easier if they had killed me.  But they didn’t.  So on I went, living in hell.‘”

Pluto conjunct/opposite ascendant - the invincible child

I did an overall pluto-ascendant in obs. 4 and this is a more in depth observation. pluto-ascendant is strongest in conjunctions and oppositions (up to 10°). It directly influences the native's character and life journey. Whatever the ascendant is, the native may appear or act like a scorpio rising but even more visibly especially if they have scorpio placements elsewhere. These aspects give so much inner strength and stamina, depth of character and unique wisdom. Pluto natives possess a lot of power that may be displayed outwardly even if the native is quiet, or if other placements reduce or balance the intensity, people still intuitively sense that there's more to them. But no information will ever feed their curiosity. They’re smarter than they show, darker, more wicked, wealthy, addicts, royals whatever it may be others think there gotta be something hidden.

In reality, it’s the complexity and different traits that the native mastered or will through hard life lessons. The extreme deaths and rebirths of their character, perspective, and appearance. Whatever you see in their intense eyes and presence is interpreted differently. They may hide parts of themselves that others won't comprehend, but because they lack the capacity to do so, their life journey is much different from theirs. Though they themselves can easily understand others, they see right through you, they understand your pain, and share their secret healing formula with you. Pluto won't allow the native to be narrow-minded or comfortable or will cause destruction. No room for escape or pretendence of change. Those people learned and relearned the darker parts of themselves and others, faced their toxic traits, and faced the hidden and broken in the world. 

They likely been through many changes in life that inevitably built their wisdom, invincibility, and power. They may gain more power through money, status, control, or any other tangible means. In terms of traits, they are intelligent, calculative, obsessive, instinctual, passionate, cunning, humorous, truthful and loyal. These people have a sort of intimidating magnetic aura that can draw or repel others depending on how healed or familiar they are with this energy. 

In the houses

Pluto can be in the 1st, 7th, or 12th house, where natives learn lessons about controlling their conscious and unconscious minds, the thoughts, actions, and memories that they need to let go of and transform to strength, to something of a better value. In the 12th they are dealing with these things alone, feeling trapped and broken, feeling deeply alone. People leaving them in the dark. Their mind isn't letting them have peace, it's uncontrollable. They want to detach from it or possibly throw it off the window, it's a burden. Trapped in a mindset, reflected through their nightmares and fears, their triggers, self image, limitations and doubts. They're discovering the power they have over their subconscious, whatever is controlling them, even the collective consciousness. It shouldn’t hold them back, but fly them to the top. They are leading the way but it's never easy.

In the 1st, they encounter people and places that trigger their shadows. People that want to break them, take their power, and show them a false version of themselves. What they think they are, they're not. They may be arrogant and overly protective. In their darkest times they may even feel like they can't tame themselves or actions. It's an aries house so they act immaturely and selfishly but they see it later. As they control their impulses they learn that they don't need to prove anything, to control everything, they are already powerful. They can use it with ease, it's not a fight it's a blessing, no one can take it. They may have trust issues because others have attacked them and betrayed them. They learned to only depend on themselves because everyone seems manipulative. They want and can attract someone as deep, passionate and honest as them who will love them as intensely.

In the 7th the traits and fears they don't see in themselves are reflected to them through others, they are a damn mirror and not a pretty one, one that reflects what others are trying to hide. They meet people that trigger their fears and strengths, some with nasty intentions and weak egos, jealous, and deceitful, wanting to see them fail, trying to gossip, and project their insecurities. Connections are a nightmare, no one is trustworthy. Others see their power more than they themselves do, hungry to feed off of it. Once they see it and unapologetically embrace it, the weak ones can’t reach them and they build better connections with people as confident and genuine. They gain a better perspective, a wisdom to discern who's lying and who's real. A healthy balance of trust and distrust in people. They crave an intense connection like pluto 1st, and they get it but through learning those lessons. 

(½) “My childhood was dominated by her stories: living in the ghetto for two years, surviving off potato peels, running like an animal from the Nazis.  She was the only one who survived.  I have no grandparents.  No aunts or uncles.  Her entire family was killed.  We rose up from the ashes.  And my mother became a monster.  She deprived us like she was deprived.  My brother and I were always made to feel like a burden.  Like we were leeching from her.  There were no special occasions.  No birthdays.  No cake.  Everything was counted.  Everything was calculated.  Whenever I asked for something, I was made to feel responsible for World War II.  She’d say: ‘I didn’t survive Hitler to get you a bag of potato chips.’  She never let me feel like we were in America.  I felt like I was the one wearing stripes.  I’ve dreamed about Hitler since I was child.  He tells me I’m a mistake.  And that I should have been killed.  I remember when I grew older and started visiting the houses of friends.  I saw how their parents treated them.  How they were given gifts.  And how they were loved.  It felt like I was crawling out of the sewer, after the war, and learning that this entire time, some people had been living normal lives.“
