*I desire*
Posted by MagicMona
i learned all desire is not good desire. so i stop and ask myself some questions. why do i want this or that? do i need it? will it improve my quality of life or be detrimental? this helps me decide. my desires are sometimes comfort based... a good home, nice career, food in my belly, clothes on my back. mainly my desires are spiritual - i seek to control and humble myself only. i seek less emotion and more logic without losing compassion. i desire wisdom and knowledge...my ultimate desire is a balanced spirit, a good heart, and a sharp mind. #phoenixgoals

My brain is too fuzzy to write anything coherent right now Star. I may be back to reply because I like the topic.
Posted by HareHaha, that just has to be WhiteChocolateRabbitQuantum?
I desire a friend chicken biscuit with spicy honey right now, but that's not happening, so I'm cranky.
How are you
😄
Posted by GetMistedAnd this?Posted by MyStarsShineSelf control is a struggle in my life for sure.
....are the two key words for Scorpio
How has *desire* manifested in your life and has it led you to good things or at times led you into trouble? What kind of desires do you/have you had and have you been able to fulfill them?
I am particularly interested in the Venus in Scorp people but would like to hear from all Scorpios
My levels of desire have always been huge, and at times i let them rule me, but am learning how to temper them and channel them into things that wont hurt me or lead me in the wrong direction
Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune in the 7th and Mercury in the 8th ~ all in Scorpio

| can understand why Scorpio is similar to Aries in some way, and the relevance of the Mars influence, when i read this
Posted by GetMistedYes indeed, i totally relate to what you write Dazed...Posted by MyStarsShineI guess I can agree with that.Posted by GetMistedAnd this?Posted by MyStarsShineSelf control is a struggle in my life for sure.

But acknowledging, and acting on, a desire are two separate things.
Acknowledging and reminding yourself of the destruction a desire can cause, is a good way to keep yourself from acting on said desire.

Posted by HareNot easy to do or viable for some
I don't think it's fair to assume anyone can just go cold turkey at any time.
I had to do it with relationships though....they were so interfering with my health and became an obsession...so cold turkey for me for over 3years...
With some addictions, cutting down gradually can help
Posted by GetMistedI get that totally, but i had to knock sex on the head as it was damaging me on a few levels, i am fortunate in that i can remember the fall out from it, so when i think of it, the thoughts aren't as enticing. Maybe if someone was destroying their body, they could remember the shitty after effect feelings of the drug rather than just the highs?Posted by HareGoing cold turkey has not been beneficial to any of my addictions. Learning to moderate my intake/desire has been. Complete lack of that which I desire makes the desire all that much more irresistible.

Posted by Hareyes, healthy desire!
I just try to balance satisfying my desires with remaining law abiding and not morally degenerate.
geez I wish we could find a good system / answer ... it would surely help us all ...
I try daily to cut down on the cigs but then after a few days, I forget and I'm going in another direction and those few days of good progress gets thrown out the window ...

You think you're using those addictions to fill some kind of void? Unless you figure out what it is, you'll just keep substituting it from one bad thing to another.
Totally true
I chose to dive in and see what was up with me and to fix it. When I did, the yearnings stopped....I am now addicted to nothing harmful...
Posted by GetMisted...an escape from the void we feel inside?Posted by MIIeFiskFor me personally, my addictions aren't filling a void. They offer an escape.

"I've got a bad desire......."
Scorpio sun, Venus and Jupiter conjunct here. Scorpio is my top planet in Pullen.
For the most part, my desires have been for things that are positive for me, like health. I'll try to figure out how to achieve what I want - researching, etc. Then I get to it and see if it works or not. I'm very disciplined with things like that. Even if I don't achieve what I want 100% , I can often come close.
Where desire hasn't been positive is when it turned into a painful yearning in a few of my romantic relationships. I really wanted the relationships to work out, and I put a lot of energy into that and tried hard to understand the other person's side of things, etc. but ultimately they weren't willing and/or able to do the same so it was draining for me.
Other desires I have are just fanciful, not anything achievable, so I just enjoy imagining them, perhaps writing a short story about them, or when I was younger drawing them. My imagination has helped me to get through some difficult times - a nice escape that doesn't do any damage to me, just gives me a break from pain.

Interesting comments guys,keep them coming
I was blessed and cursed with a sun neptune conjunction in the 7th in Scorp...so this is about desire, escape and yearning through the lessons of relationships.....
For me to learn though I had to push myself to the limits of myself. Being single is the only way I have healed and my God, did I ever get to know myself

Posted by GetMistedColoring outside the lines is more fun.
Simply put..
There are things humans cannot, and will never achieve. We live in a reality based on rules.
I want to escape those rules.
I desire to make the world more beautiful. Like on the eyes. Aesthetically.
Function and form are important of course, but I want it first and foremost to be pretty.
I was tripping out the other day thinking about how many trees I've had planted on jobs in the last 5 months. In 30/40 years that a huge green skyline.
Grow little beasties, grow.

Posted by EnochtheWiseI have the same tendencies and I'm a Virgo.
I become totally obsessed and immersed with whatever I put my attention on. It usually becomes unhealthy. I don't know how to curb it. All I know to do is switch to something else, and I'm good at doing that. I can't really do anything in moderation though. It could be a person, a subject, a hobby, a substance, dxp, whatever....I'm trying to cope with some of these things that have accumulated in my life right now by isolating myself, but then, even in isolation I find ways to do it...
Coming from a Scorpio moon and Pluto I've indulged to the post desire was lost. Its likely the combination of Leo sun and Taurus mars also, but I find myself super jaded and hard to impress. Its like once I feel I mastered something I give up on it completely, so I find myself surrounded with hobbies and jobs that are impossible to master.
Posted by MyStarsShineSame conjunction in 7th here and I can relate. My 7th house is ruled by Scorp but intercepted by Sag. My Neptune is Sag, making an out of sign conjunction. My Sag Mercury is also in the 7th house. Everything is conjunct.

The Sag saves me, perhaps, from becoming so involved with a partner that I give too much to the relationship and neglect myself, but in my last LTR that was tested and I did give up too much. It's taken a while to recover.
I am thinking of starting thread on how is

Posted by Infinite8Posted by GetMistedEngineers and architects work together to make things happen.Posted by Infinite8What point is there for an architect to design something that will never come to fruition?Posted by GetMistedLol... You're still thinking like an engineer. You can't trick me mister?
@Infinite8
I do think like an architect. However, the things I want to design and construct cannot be built or function in a world ruled by physics. Hence my need to escape and dream.
This is why I enjoy sleeping so much.
Only in my dreams can I live out my desire to be a space traveling feline in pursuit of universal domination.
The architect is imagination and a dreamer. They see possibilities and implement some competent math to not go overboard on the dreaming.
The engineer gets the blue prints and cusses the architect out at their outlandish ideas, and many times have the frustration of having to find a way to make those ideas function properly...lol.
In the end, it always works - and as a result, you have marvelous wonders to marvel at and enjoy, use.
This world would be very boring and mundane if it were filled with engineers, only. Both are necessary.
Right now, your life needs an architect ?

I know you're Scorp-LEO, but do you also have a lot
of earth and/ or air in your chart?

Career - I desire to be an accountant manager. I am always in the position of being a supervisor or general accountant. and still wanted to be a lawyer if there is shorcuts on this I probably have gone to it. I have huge responsibility in the family. So no time to go school. Maybe it is not for me.
Or scorpio itself even if I own every thing still not enough..so I just let it go.
In life. I always desire to have a home..almost there though..

I actually have no earth in my chart. But all of my leo placements (moon, Mars, Saturn and midheaven) are in the 10th house. Does that count?
Air: Libra - Ascendent, Venus, Pluto and NN
*im curious too*
Why do you want to know? ?

Thats a lot of LEO 😄
I was curious because you and @GetMisted are
both Scorp-LEO but you both have *very* different
perceptions of the world.
I wondered why.
Thanks 🙂
I have a Scorpio Moon. I feel like there's been many things in the past that I've wanted, and that I eventually got in one form or another in the future.. Wasn't necessary what I wanted it to be but it happened lol. It's like the saying "Be careful what you wish for."
I desire some bacon at the moment....badly 😛
Venus in scorp and scorp sun.
Desire is a BITCH for me, omg.
Once something has truly won my heart, it basically needs to threaten my livelyhood for me to back off.
Seriously, ask gin around midterms.
Also, the intense fantasizing can be pretty inescapable. Biased perceptions, lack of control, emotional frustrations, etc.
But of course, amazing levels are reached when this energy is focused and utilized positively. It's a really great result, so fulfilling

Posted by tizianiI always remember the method Tiz....Posted by GetMistedIn the end they will only remember the result. Rarely ever the method.Posted by tizianiFair enough I guess. I just don't always go about it in gentle way .Posted by GetMistedI don't agree. I've seen you campaign for things, and show care in places a lot of people wouldn't. You're not an asshole.
@Infinite8 is different from me, in that.. she's not an asshole like I am.
