Who do you think would be more manipulative?

Someone with an Aquarius sun, or an Aquarius moon?

"because they just don't give a damn about controlling others."

Well, ma'am, you'd know the inner workings of an Aquarian mind better than I, but I have definitely seen some crazily manipulative Aquas. You have to admit they have all the prerequisites of being ridiculously manipulative.

"If I had to choose, I'd say aqua moon..."

How come?

lol

Please do, aqi. I admit that I am manipulative and I would love to see your perspective as to why.

(but still not as manipulative as some Aquarians I've seen, damn)

"Go talk to Libras if you want to see manipulative."

My mom's a Libra. She can cry on command.

I have no problem telling someone off....but only if it's warranted and with cause.

Otherwise, I'm very calm, laid back, and happy.

Of course, I don't have ANYTHING Aquarius in my charts apparently. 😉

Good idea. Now I just have to find out the exact date and location of their birth..hehehe

"But overall, I wouldn't say aquas are not manipulative."

Hey wait a second.

I don't mean manipilative as in you can't tell people what you think of them.

She doesn't know her birthtime but her moon is in Gemini.

What does being manipulative have to do with telling people what you think, or to fuck off, or whatever?

I don't think you'd really like me to tell you why I see yous guys as manipulative. Your former boss sounds a bit like me. I probably sound like a bitch admitting that I'm manipulative but I don't use it to start trouble (like some people I know).

And I confront people too, that's why I don't understand why a person can't be straightforward generally but veddy manipulative sometimes too.

"everyone manipulates to some degree. everyone."

yeah, even widdle kids do.

all the aquas i've known, dated, befriended, etc. were not manipulative....they had the philosophy of "if it walked like a duck and quacked like a duck, then it was a duck" meaning they don't sugar coat, those don't over analyze and sure as heck call it as they see it.

"seeing how i have little charm, i have to use it sparingly as not to deplete the resource."

hahaha, I don't believe you, I think you're just being self-deprecating. 😛 Who knows...you're pretty charming on DXP (and I'm sure others can attest to this), maybe that's what's been draining your resources, eh?

What about an Aqua who has been deeply hurt, wants revenge, or has basically lost faith in humanity? Ever seen one of those?

...It ain't purty.

The Aquas I know don't hurt anyone emotionally or manipulatively out of malice.

My brother is a Feb aqua and my best friend is a jan aqua...both of them have been through a lot but they've persevered and didn't bring anyone down with them. instead they worked themselves back up. they are both salts of the earth. but neither one of them will let anyone walk over them and they will burst your bubble before you can finish blowing.

ok, I am definitely willing to admit that the Aquas I have met are not a representation of all.

however, they are undeniably manipulative

haha...you seem pretty good at psychology yourself, ma'am.

dag nab it I have to leave! ah well...I wonder if there's anyone else on the planet who thinks Aquarians are manipulative..no! There has to be!

The aqua philosophy of of being humanitarians and "seeing the borader picture" kinda goes against the art of being manipulative. I guess they don't see the point in it. I am not particuarly manipulative although it'd be probably a good thing if I were a bit because then I might be able to say one thing and mean the other and avoid certain awkward and uncomfortable situations that woud arise if I simply said the way it was and what I thought.

I think aqua do have a fairly blunt form of manipulation where they will threaten to not do this or do that because of their firm principles and so others will have to compromise in order to get things rolling. In this way the aqua gets his way and thus has manipulated.

"i wonder if certain signs are better at tapping motivation than other signs, certainly that would be water signs. they are known to be intuitive and can see through people easily."

Maybe..I'd say fire signs as well. They (erm..we?) can persuade like nobody's business.

"I think people who are good at manipulating, are also good at psychology. I think it's more an understanding of psychology and motivation, rather than sign-related."

Maybe I'm wrong, but aren't Aquarians supposed to understand psychology? I know a LOT of Arians do...Sagittarians too...
