I was reading on scorpioland.org and how 8th house peeps construe power. It's all about SURVIVAL. not really about ethics or morality. Yes, there are codes of morality and ethics in our lives and it is a good thing to have that. However, when I was reading the site about it and some good factual descriptions, it's really very understandable.

for example, watch Brooke Mangnanti, and her interview with the actress Billie Piper.

her DREAM and way to success is to be a physicist. but it takes ALOT of money to get there. And paying your way through college just workin at a bar or be a barista is NOT enough money and you'll be suffering a lot trying to pay off a half million debt in college fees. Ok not half million but maybe 150,000k if you are in the major of wanting something as ambitious as what she wanted. So here in this interview she says it was SO EASY to make 150 pounds in one night. just with one customer. You can understand the motivations of SURVIVAL.



do you understand this? if you have scorpio/8th house? I have always known this deep down, but it's not really understandable in a tangent way because you don't realize it. but we all desire to have some kind of surivival skill/instinct.

from there ^^^^^^^^^

"Lin Y’utang (Libra) said that too much learning means that you can no longer see anything as being right or wrong. In other words, the simplest human being may be able see the evil much better than scientists who sometimes actively avoid discussing evil because they see it too unprofessional or moralistic. Scientists and many other professional, astrologers included, rather leave such issues for Christian theologians and priests. Yet in their personal lives even scientists often talk or think about evil; they just keep their moral judgments to themselves. And the same goes with astrologers."

yes interesting. Hm.

well I saw Belle Du Jour's past, where she's "broken"...she said in her interview that she was raped as a teenager and that scarred her a lot.

you could see in her video, she is living very vey well, with luxurious furniture, ect and with her Scottish husband (she lives in Scotland now)

if you read the article, she was on a casual encounters sex site (where she met her now husband) or something but the site was shut down because the males looking for hook ups complained that it was overrun by call girls.

lol so funny to read these things.


it's like the recent Ashley Madison site ordeal.

Maybe the "old me" would agree. I did a lot... And I mean a lot, to protect myself, to protect my secrets and to protect my reputation. Even if I needed to use somebody to do it. But it definitely backfired on me. And the biggest lesson I learned through that experience is to be authentic, have integrity and have morals. It's so crazy to think back at the person I used to be and who I am now. It's like, who the hell was that person? I would do anything to control the outcome of my life. It truly was all about survival, even if I had to survive at another person's expense. But looking back at it now and analyzing the situation, I think I did all that because I was in so much pain and had so much fear that I was just protecting myself at all cost.
thanks for sharing.

it sounds like you're heading in a good place right now.
