| Dancing Bread>>A leo can only grasp so much from the depths...it isn't their personality to fully understand...And the leo doesn't need to, because there are other signs that can. The undercurrent of emotions lie in the water signs...an intellectual leo can tell me all day long how they understand and know these emotions...but all I can say is that if you could, you wouldn't be able to talk about them easily. Emotions are not meant to be described only felt. The depth of the scorpio lies in pure emotion... Leo can understand pure emotion. Respectfully....Your wrong! To say that Leo (or anyone for that matter) can't understand pure emotion is to say that they can't love. Love is to emotions, what white is to color. White is the total of all the other colors in the spectrum, combined. And what is love but the total of all other feelings combined? In order to experience pure love....you must experience EVERY OTHER HUMAN EMOTION. And what's all this nonsence about not being able to talk about them? My friend, your way off. First of all, let's exchange the word talk, with the word communicate. It's a much better, fuller, more accurate one. In any honest conversation about feeling we need to understand how it is that we communicate. When we try to speak to each other - me to you, you to me - we are immediately constricted by the unbelievable limitation of words. For this reason, we do not communicate by words alone. In fact, rarely do we do so. The most common form of communication is through feeling. Feeling is the language of the soul. Why do you think everyone on these boards use emoticons in their posts? (con't) |
| (con't) Feelings are sometimes difficult to discover - and often even more difficult to acknowledge. Yet hidden in our deepest feelings is our highest truth. The trick is to get to those feelings. We also communicate with thought. Thought and feelings are not the same, although they can occur at the same time. In communicating with thought, we often use images and pictures. For this reason, thoughts are more effective than mere words as tools of communication. In addition to feelings and thoughts, we also use the vehicle of experience as a grand communicator. And finally, when feelings and thoughts and experience all fail, we use words. Words are really the least effective way to communicate. They are most open to misinterpretation, most often misunderstood. And why is that? It is because of what words are. Words are merely utterances, noises that STAND FOR feelings, thoughts, and experience. They are signs, Insignias. They are not truth. They are not the real thing. Your experience and your feelings about a thing represent what you factually and intuitively know about a thing. Words can only seek to symbolize what you know, and can often confuse what you know. Now, is it that Leo can't understand? Or might it be that we are simply willing to TRY to communicate and share our thoughts, feelings, and experiences (even with the unbelievable limitation of words)? |
| wheelhomies>> Oh, and I'm going to say that some Leos will be able to pick up on AND comprehend (sit down, it's alright) the emotions you mentioned. I don't mean they have to be "explained" (not really sure where you're getting this from)..but yeah, they can be understood. You go girl! ...What we have to remember, is that the Leo is influenced by the positive, masculine, day forces in the zodiac, and they enable us to be optimistic enough to try to convey what we are feeling, thinking, and experiencing, and to let them out in the light of day where they belong. (or so we think) Whereas a scorpio is influenced by the negative, feminine, night forces of the zodiac, making them go underground, or keep hidden (under the cloak of night) what they may be experiencing, feeling, thinking... it's true...scorpio really does think they nobody can be as deep as them.... |

| The depth of the Scorpio lies in pure emotion... Actually, by this argument Scorpios do not understand pure intellect because emotion colours intellect. |

| Although this raises a bigger question. What does the element of fire really represent? |

| "In astrology, a fire sign refers to any of the three signs Aries, Leo or Sagittarius. In earlier astrology, the fire signs were often called bitter to contrast with the "sweet" air signs." hee hee! Cookie is going to barf. |

| The worst qualities of fire signs are seen as their tendency to be irresponsible, overbearing, impatient and boastful to the point of hurting others' feelings. They can also supposedly find it very hard to deal with detail because of their quest for the "big picture". Because astrology holds that fire signs are frequently highly outspoken, they can prove too much for more sensitive types of people who resist the criticism they can produce. They are supposedly by nature emotional rather than rational and quick to anger if they disapprove, but, unlike water signs, very quick to forgive and not sensitive to criticism. Interesting. |

| little_sparrow no no no no no no no no NO when I said "it's not like anyone cares" (or w/e I don't remember the wording), I wasn't talking about your philosophizing, I was referring to my personal opinions. Please refrain from being offended, as that is the least of my intentions.

Obviously I can only speak from my own perspective...but, for me, this is all true. I definitely have these tendencies, although some of them aren't as prominent. |

| ***Yet, you see this as a negative thing. No. You misread my intention. I see it merely as an interesting/curious thing. For the most part, I am not an emotional person and for that, I am grateful. I don't like being emotional. It upsets me. Intellect and emotion must work together. No good can come from either running untempered. |
