Scorpio and Cancer differences

i know Scorpio and Cancer can be very similar in some ways, but what are the outstanding notable differences? just curious

They are very, very similar, especially emotionally.

I have read in one book that Cancer is a Scorpio without the tail (sting), so perhaps Scorpio is more dangerous of the two. Otherwise, they are remarkably similar, even the animal symbols look alike a lot, LOL.

Yes,

Bling is right, they have dark, cruel sense of humour. But I really like that, because I know where it is coming from (their dark side), that's why I find it hillarious. Me and my Scorpio friend are usually on the floor laughing.
As for the first part of Blingys answer, this is only the immature Cancers. The mature ones (eg myself 🙂), are not like that at all, but they usually mature a bit later.
Scorpios are really, really sensitive, but hide it really well, that's why I love them so much. But so are the Cancers, although, much more obvious.

Don;t compare us special creaturs to those x&*% *% & $ ?% * $ *(*(% * $ (% * $

....oh, and unevolved Scorpios are evil, which Cancers are not, even unevolved ones.
Look at Aedimus here, a prime example!!!!

Hey, just joking, I love Scorpios (although the evil part is often true)

Blingy, that is correct

After 30 Cancers are the best, don't even bother before that. Talking from the personal experience.

Theres two signs I absolutely hate with a passion..Cancers defo one of them...Yuck...

PUKE @ Cancers.

Morning Deemi....

Hmmmm, interesting...

I am still to meet a Scorpio that I don't click with straight away, whether in love or friendship (of course, if the age, interests, life style s are similar). And they always stick to me like glue, which I don't mind at all, just on the contrary. But there is always an exception to the rule, I guess...

LOL..Well I would hate to burst your bubble m'dearest Blingers...but the other sign is Libra!...lol..I have NEVER had a problem with Leos..

Libras on the other hand...

::cringes::

Hahahaha, in my case it is mutual (well, thank God for that!).

And sometimes, Scorpios get so possesive with me, I have to move away, litterally, for some space. But I do love them, I love their good qualities, they are great, loyal friends, if a little controlling...

Oh I remember on New years eve, we were about to go out to this club. My Pisces friend had invited a Cancer chick who expected the pisces chick to arrange her travel itinery for her...I can see my Pisces friend getting all worked up trying to arrange all this. So I just grabbed the phone off her and said "look, we are going to a club in Tower Hill, if you need mummy to hold your hand, I suggest you stay in your little bedroom with your barbie doll...if you want to come out, heres the address, make your own bloody way there"

Fucking twat!...Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!

...as I said, a "little" controlling", LOL.

Too bloody right...people need to be put in their rightful places...Controlling or not..

This IS funny, because I have totally different experience.

It is usually my Scorpio friends that WANT to and INSIST on organizing things for me, even though I am more then capable of doing it myself. They just love to take over.

Example: I had a Scorpio girlfriend from abroad to be the guest in my home. One morning, I took the pot to make us some coffee, and she literaly snatched the pot from my hand and did it herself. And it was like that with everything, she loved to be in control.
My male Scorpio friend does similar thing, but it almost smells of protectiveness, however, it is still the part of controlling behaviour.
But I let them do it, because I know they like it, it makes them feel good, but it does feel a bit overbearing sometimes.

We are just self-sufficient, don't like relying on anyone..in whatever shape or form..We have to be in charge of the situation..

But I hate organising anything..just tell me where I need to be and I will turn up....late...but I will turn up...

Yes, they are emotionally unaware, immature Cancers. But again, it is not sign specific, as a matter of fact, I had many ultra possesive expriences with Aquariuses. These ones turned obsessive, and for one "cool" sign, it was very scary experience.
It all boils down to emotional maturity.
My personal horoscope is air signs heavy (even though I am Cancer), perhaps this is the reason I sometimes need some air/space. But still, evolved Scorpios are ones of my favourite signs, I really get them on this gut level, I simply know where they are coming from.

Blingy, really not passing the back, the guy was obsessive, possesive nutter (realized it too late). And I have a Leo girlfriend, and she told me that the only sign that she had the same experience with was Aquarius.
And as for Scorpio/Libra rising, WOW! My two favourite signs blended into one! That is one fine combination, as far as my tastes go, that is.
I do think that Can and Sco's are very similar, but of course, it is a few, but major differences that set them apart. In general, Scorpios control their emotions so much better then Cancers, but inside they are similar emotional volcanos. Anyway, that's my 2 cent.

In 1988 I was evil to my sister for a whole three minutes, WITHOUT stopping! *beams proudly*

HAHA!

Cancers are more like Pisces. They're the evil version of Pisces.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Hahahaaha

"Scorpio and Cancer differences"

Dont know, don't care. One thing I know for sure, I own both of them and that's all I need to know.

What do you mean "I own" both of them?

What do you mean "I own" both of them?

He means what he means...he owns them. Or so he thinks. He believe he owns the world...

"He means what he means...he owns them. Or so he thinks. He believe he owns the world..."

Silence woman! Silence!

Yeah as Clio meant...I own them in every perspective.

Scorps can go and scare off crows, cuz that's only what they can do near me. Cancer's manipulations works only against them. I've seen their king, and kicked his ass. The rest will follow him.

Haffo, you are mad...but funny!

All right, if you think so.....

LOL @ second hand dartboard..lmao..thats good

Blingy, you are funny, LOL.

Did I say Scorpio sun/Libra rising, a VERY neat combo! Hahaha, that was terrible "a second hand dartboard"

Well, I think that Scorpios and Cancers rock, I don't care what anyone else thinks 🙂

Scorpios defo rock..in all manner of speaking..we even like Rock music..Cancers just take up valuable oxygen

Do you know what I am predicting will happen one day, and this is serious:

MissMorals will fall madly in love with.....a dreaded Cancer! Ahahhaha, I can't wait for this day to happen, and it will happen as sure as the Sun comes out every day.
Don't waste your time denying it, I am sure it will happen one day, hopefully I'll be around to read all about it, hahahhahahaha.

LOL..nah..I am in love and very happy with my Aries...

Very happy for you and Aries, but lets wait......and see....

Blingy,

In my past, my major attractions were with people who had either Libra Sun/Scorpio everything else, or Scorpio Sun plus some Libra influence (moon, ascendant etc).
I just think that a Scorpio benefits greatly from Libra's more airy influence, the need to look at both sides of things. I really like that combo, but it may be because I myself am a mixture of water and air. Don't know, but you should be happy, LOL.

LOL

My sister is Cancer and her hubby is Scorpio...its going pretty strong actually...bless them..

you know, A lot of these comments could be found in a class room. Seething hatred and all.

But anyway the diffrences and similarities between the two are almost equal.

Thanks for your words of wisdom..

😛

We are just joking, no bad feelings at all...at least from my side!

Likewise. You learn a little everyday, Especially from those with intresting POVs.

well you could be right, lubenica.

I had fun on the forums today. And I agree with your post above.

Anyway, good night people, off I go to Slumberland.

I have got to add my two cents to this. Scorps are more straitfoward in all ways. We do not dance around things we need to say. Where as Cancers like to play. Both the males and females.As Scorps we have to walk on eggshells or we hurt feelings...

We are stronger than them too. We are the strongest of all the water signs.

We are very emotional but we hide it better than Pisces and Cancers

BTW...I love Cancers...To a degree 😉

Chiaki Kuriyama is a libra

(sorry this is the gemini in me, .. always talking...)

I like the cancers on this board, but they seem very different from your "every-day" cancer.. I don't get along all too well with them in real life either.

Oh Blingy you lil' thingy, you PUPPY YOU!!!!!!

🙂

I really do think though you can't compare cancer with scorpio. They may appeal to each other, but they are very different.. An aries ain't no leo, a libra ain't no gemini and a taurus aint no virgo...

Ah bless Bling and his weakness for Cancer chicks...

Yeah I can't stand them much either...

^^^ example of a lubbly little Cancer chick,doesn't seem as mardy and unhinged as a fair few of them are,especially when there's a full moon ......

When there is a full moon I don't look like a cookiemonster anymore now do I? 🙂

I don't get along with cancers all too well either.
I can't think of a single cancer-friend.
It's strange. I get everything I read about us and it's not all negative.
I think we are beautiful personalities, like the other 11 signs!
In real life though... a lot of us turn out to be naggin' b*tches, I admit
My grandmother was a manipulative cow, I was afraid of my aunt when I was little (she made me eat big pieces of half-raw carrots she'd dropped in her spaghetti) and my cancer-classmates... *sigh* : DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA. I mean,seriously!!!.. Very tiring!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so not like that, and my leo-mate (and many other 😛) agree/s with that!
Also my other grandmother is a very nice old lil' lady. But then again we were born 22 June and 24 June.. maybe it has something to do with the fact that we were born on a cusp?

no,you look lovely........

--> Oooooh do I really? 🙂 *stuffs you with chocolate cake*

Aprilbaby 6/11/2007 5:38:23 PM | ip: xxx.xxx.xxx.134

Eh, I don't think the cusp thing improves anything. My mother is on the cusp of Gemini/Cancer, and it's awful

--> damn! I'm thinking of another theory, cause I really can't be that bad hehe 🙂

I think you just have a bad bad mommy!! 😢 hehe 🙂
