The sign with the most emotional strength? (Page 2)

Eh, I know a lot of people would say Saddam was an evil guy but look at the country now. It's in shambles. He had to do what he had to do to keep people in line and his country in one piece. He did do lots of good things for his country and required all children to be educated. But that's going off on a tangent.

I know several Libras who gladly step all over people they consider friends to gain power and wealth and smile the whole way and look nice on the outside. Let's just say one of them comes across as very friendly but is a pretty ruthless guy and sold out his own friends to keep himself from going to jail.

Emotionally strong.. scorpio or capricorn... in my opinion.

Yea, so now instead when kids go to pick through landfills for stuff to sell or recycle because their dads were blown up randomly or murdered by other Iraqis, they get shot or stabbed in the back and beheaded on the way to school by random strangers in the streets.

Trade one evil for another. And plenty of Iraqi's have been interviewed and said they preferred it much more when Saddam was still around. At least there was some form of stability in the country, now it's just in shambles and has no sign of improving for a very long time to come.

Why go to war with a country that had nothing to do with 9-11? What about Myanmar where people are getting murdered and ethnic groups are being purged so that their land can be taken? Those people voted legitimately for a Democracy and the army just said "Nope" and took over and their citizens plead and beg for help but none is given.

Yeah, mustard gas and nerve toxins as opposed to just being slaughtered by AK-47s or whatever it is the military in Myanmar uses. End result is the same.

Those people conspired to murder Saddam. What do you think would happen to a large group of people who conspired to murder Bush? You think they'd be captured and sent to Guantanamo? More likely they'd all be filled up by M14A1 bullets on the spot or sentenced to execution if they weren't killed on the spot.

Anyway, no point in taking this further off track. As far as emotional stability goes isn't it supposed to be the Moon sign that has a larger effect on one's inner self and emotions than the Sun sign?

When it truly comes down to picking yourself back up and dusting yourself time and time again, it's exactly those same powerful emotions that also pull you through. In the end, NO sign can bounce back more quite like the mutable adaptable spiritual piscean.

Keyword: "I Believe.."

Don't you think Pisces just bury them deeper and deeper and never deal with them? That's why so many of them turn to addiction to deal with their problems? It's just the dealings I've had with Pisces seem be these types of experiences.

Not at all, the one's i know are very* strong emotionally, no sterotypical addictions either. It's other signs who may hide, ignore, supress or detach, and bury deeper. Pisceans are known to be quite resilient when the going gets tough, it's part of our nature. You feel, you deal and life goes on, emotions are faced and embraced..

My ex, a pisces, wouldn't talk about it. He'd kinda sulk till the mood had passed, then never deal with the problem. Maybe it's a bull/fish kinda thing. Taureans like to deal up front with the situation and how they are feeling straight away. The pisces I know, run away from it.

""Taureans like to deal up front with the situation and how they are feeling straight away.""

- Very true of the ones I know.


""The pisces I know, run away from it.""

- Sorta true of the ones in my life.


The one major difference I've noticed is that the Pisces is far more willing and able to get over it, so to speak. Perhaps that's what you mean by "run away from it"? Although they are quicker to acknowledge and address an issue, Taureans hold on to their burdens for much longer.

So alike, yet so different.

The pisces i've known, from family to friends not only deal with their own reality, but are much more apt to forgive and forget, and to help others attain a much clearer focus, as well. i've have known a Taurus that did alot of hiding, detachment and stubbornly locking away from reality.. Pisceans go with the flow more times than not; belonging to the mutable, adaptable (mode) of astrology.

Being able to hide your emotions especially if your really having a hard time, isnt a sign of weakness!
On the contrary , id say its a sign of strength

"If you can Keep your head whilst others are losing theirs"

Not everyone wants people to see them as a teary, emotional wreck.

Well there you go then. There is no strongest because there's just far too many ways to consider what strength of emotion is.

Some will say it is the strength and courage to openly show your emotions and wear them on your sleeve while others will say doing so is weakness because you're letting your emotions flow (whether good or bad emotions) and that having control over them and conquering them and being the stoic type is strength of emotion.

I probably fall in the 2nd category (not that I think this is the true type of strength of emotion) but in that that's how I am myself whether that's a healthy way or not to be.

Even moreso is what society deems it to be according to gender. If you're a guy and you wear your heart on your sleeve you "need to grow a thicker skin", "stop being so emo", and stop being so effeminate. You try to conquer your emotions and show none outwardly as a female and you're seen as a cold hearted bitch.
