Here is what i think the biggest fear of some of the signs. I only know part of them so feel free to add.
Aries: fear of being weak Taurus: Fear of loss of stability Leo: Fear of public humiliation and loss or self-esteem Libra: fear of rejection Scorpio: fear of losing control to obssession (if you are not obssessive you are not a true scorpio) Virgo: fear of being "wrong" Capricorn: fear of being incompetent, also somewaht fear of being "wrong" Pisces: fear of losing touch with imagination, or losing touch with reality
Why? Well ... that's ... 🙂 It's personal but why not
I fear success because of the implications behind it. When you're on top, most want to pull you done -- lower then they are. Most people don't like to see others succeed, so successful people are huge targets. I like keeping a low profile.
aries - fear of not doing enough taurus - fear of insecurity gem - fear of boredom cancer - fear of losing a love leo - fear of loss of pride virgo - fear of losing mental prowess libra - fear of being alone scorpio - fear of being made a fool sag - fear of being tied down cap - fear of losing control of emotions aquarius - fear of loss of independence pisces - dunno if pisces has fear? Pretty self-contained and controlled.
I think we Pisces fear the mundane, falling into routine i.e. the lives of the characters in the movie American Beauty. I think, even if I had the ability to know all things, I would choose not to because I need to find some wonder in this world. I almost wish I didn't know the cognitive reasons behind why people do things, b/c in a way, it reduces people and their behavior to a series of cognitive processes.
"I think, even if I had the ability to know all things, I would choose not to because I need to find some wonder in this world"
Amen to that G. I think my worst fear would be still being where I am in 5 years time, doing the same things and seeing the same people - I know that sounds bad but honestly what I crave are new experiences and people, life I guess.
Keva fear of loss, rejection etc. is hard but you have to let go, you shouldn't let your fears prevent you from having a bash anyway and living your life because in the end that's what will stifle you, the "what if" looking back.
That's a good one MsP, I have to say I'm the opposite though, sometimes I wish I had more fear because I wouldn't have to deal with the fallout of taking so many risks in life.
I need more grounding that's for sure.......I think the term "fly by the seat of your pants" was invented for me lol. 😛

"I fear success because of the implications behind it. When you're on top, most want to pull you done -- lower then they are. Most people don't like to see others succeed, so successful people are huge targets. I like keeping a low profile."
I'd like to be a target because of success, it'd give me a reason to bust heads, figuritively of course. 🙂 What's stopping you from busting heads in a low key fasion from the sidelines or background, like quietly sabotaging the competition or something?
Aries: Fear of appearing weak Taurus: Fear of instability financially or emotionally Gemini: Fear of being more dependent than independent Cancer: Fear of not being understood by those closest to them Leo: Fear of never getting the attention they feel they deserve Libra: Fear of rejection (especially by those people or those things they actually chase after) Scorpio: Fear of losing control Virgo: Fear of being overall wrong Pisces: Fear of reality only existing, with no room for fantasy Capricorn: Fear of losing reputation or social status Sagg: Fear of losing independence Aquarius: Fear of not being fully appreciated for their intelligence & uniqueness
"which alienates aquas from those environments which are drab and require following. Somehow, at the back of our heads we know we can make things better than they are. Therefore, we only choose to spend time in situations where we can change something for the better."
You are absolutely right. It's weird, it's like sometimes we Aquas would like to take the credit for alot of things (we like to be the Master Minds behind things) but in the same manner we'd prefer not to be a deer in headlights (much like the Leo would) before the operation is completed. We always feel as though we have the missing piece or component to things & it hurts us deeply when we contribute that component & don't get credit for it. We know we're unique & very different from other signs in the zodiac (and I'm sure other signs can say this same thing about themselves), & it's important (to us) that others see Aquas this very same way, thus further appreciating us for our differences versus always forming alliances against us simply BECAUSE we're different
People say Aries are nothing without courage and self belief. perhaps thats my biggest fear. Lose of freedom are perhaps also the biggest fear of fire signs, not just sags.
wow, interesting, insightful points to read from everyone; for me: namely Pisces-water (sun) Taurus-earth (rising) Aquarius-air (stellium, saturn).
PISCES-No room for fantasy or imagination (there is much awareness of a real, tangible world out there, but man is meant to dream & imagine as well, for this is where a ton of inspiration & creativity comes out. For what is man without dreams to in-turn affect & enrich his everyday waking world.) TAURUS- fear of instability, lack of comfort-security, loss of possessions in all its guises (come to think of it, i did have these new ubar cool pair of sunglasses stolen once, & that got to me for days & days, how could they! lol) AQUARIUS- not appreciated as a unique, free thinking individual. (sort of that unacknowleged, indifferent, passed-over kind of feeling. Also restriction or loss of independence; be it emotional, mental, spiritual, physical.) ( so, in an astro-nutshell..)
Though, when you think about it, technically some fears may be more annoyances than anything or emotionally induced limitations which may have no real basis, only what you continually feed your mind to believe. On the other hand, i do believe it's healthy to have some fears in life -which can actually save you; your own preservational instincts are there for a reason; as in fear of deep water, fear of heights, fear of speed, etc. etc.
I think for Aquarius it's more like fear of "DEPENDENCY"
Put it like this... I don't EVER want to be kept alive clinically brain dead. Dependant on others to sustain me knowing that in some way they'll be sick and tired of their obligation towards me. I don't want to be someones "burden", I'd rather they avoid it all and pull the plug on me.
I would say for libras, at least for myself fear of being judged is more accurate than fear of being disliked or rejected. If someone rejects me or dislikes me sometimes it bothers me but as a whole I really see it as their problem not mine. In most cases I have better or more important things to do than try to make people like me or accept me. If I stay true to myself I will attract people who do like me and do accept me and that is true for everyone.
But if someone doesn't know me and judges me or does know me but starts doing things like talking to others behind my back and develops their opinion on that info.....they better learn to sit in their fucking corner and do what they need to do while staying out of my way. If that is not ok they will get a damn legitimate reason to judge me.
that has to do with weak self-esteem. I used to think like that when i was young, but now i got over it. No one can decide who i want to be. What people said behind my back does not piss me off as much as being false in my face.
"Aries-fear of entering a battle they cant win (notice how they will only fight for things where they know they have a big chance of winning, the other challenges they will just ignore"
That is wrong. I read all the insults on this forum, but i choose my battles. Thats because I got really bruised on another fight in another fourm. An aries withdraw oir retreat from battle because he is planning to build up his strength to fight another day, not because he likes picking fights with someone weaker than him so he can get a easy win. Thats like beating little kids up to show how strong you are.
Scorpio: definitely a fear of obsession or lack thereof fear of losing control or the presence of control itself fear of rejection, though not of rejecting
As a Scorpio, I agree that my biggest fear has been that of losing control over the things at affect my emotional stability.
BTW, someone said that Aquarians fear attachment and intimacy. T_T If this is true in its entirety, how would these water bearers fall in love? (I know, it sounds kind of extreme. But taking things to extreme is a good Scorpion way of finding the answer 😉 )
I only know part of them so feel free to add.
