your relationship with other signs in your fam?



Posted by Jerrod1357
How did you fellow scorps deal with the other signs in your family (in the same household) growing up?
My house was pretty diverse:
-My oldest brother is a taurus. Can be very stubborn at times and we didnt get into it too much, but there were days when arguments could break out because he wanted to play a "leader" roll and things had to go his way neither of us wanted to back down lol. But he was also very protective of family and there for you.
-Second oldest (my sister) is a cap and we actually got along very well. Had a good connection. She is always about her work and school. And as of right now has her own magazine.
-Next one down is my other brother. Good ole Ares... We would get into it AALLLLLLL the time. He would just start $ #i+ all the time for no reason and we would get into huge arguments. Are parents (well mostly my mom and the stepdad at the time) would have to break us up). And then he would jus turn it off and go back to normal as if nothing happened lol.
-My dad is also a scorp. There would be times when we would have a great connection and we can hang out and have a blast. And then theres times when we would have a huge blowout. As if he felt his manhood was being challenged or something i dunno lol. We just recently had a HUGE blow out couple months ago when we worked together.
-And my wonderful mother is a sag. Most of the time growing up she would be working and taking care of business. Since her and my dad divorced, she would be making sure we were fed and the bills were paid. She was usually always and we most of the time held the house down. Relationship between me and my mom was a little different between her and my other siblings. Maybe its because i remind her so much of my dad (us both being scorps and kind of looking alike).
P.S. I was the youngest 8-b

We had every element in our house growing up. LOL My dad is fire (sag), my mom was air (gemini), my oldest sister is a virgo and my other sister is a cancer. I am a scorpio.
I was very close with my mom growing up, depended on her a lot, but as I grew older I noticed a lot of manipulative, unhealthy traits about her, she would try to turn me and my sisters against each other on purpose, and also turned me against my dad during their divorce. She also had problems with addiction, so a lot of times I chalked it up as it being the alcohol/pills that made her this way. I still have very fond memories of her.
My dad was a workaholic, kinda mean. Seemed like he was yelling at us all the time, for everything. He was unhappy in his marriage to my mom and also stressed out by the company that he owns and runs. He wasn't approachable to confide in, but he was occasionally affectionate. He had a big belly and would let me lay on his belly when I was just a little one.
My sisters and I fought like cats and dogs, I'm talking hair-pulling blood shedding fist fights.. but I also clung to them because I was the baby. I would sleep in their rooms when my parents fought at night. My virgo sister was always kind to me and would let me sleep in her bed with her. The cancer sister made me sleep on the floor. LOL (such a bitch) But cancer sister also used to cook for me growing up.
My mom passed away 2 years ago, but I'm incredibly close with both of my sisters AND my dad now. My dad is not as mean as he used to be, in fact he has turned into a big mushball over the years. He cries during hallmark commercials and stuff. lol

" My mother is like that. Cancer women tend to be very forgiving and nurturing that way. Your moon is very strong."
^^^I thought that implied your mom was a Cancer lol. Good to know better.
Ya I love healthy Virgos, this aunt is considerably younger than my mother and has a sense of entitlement and bosses everyone around, she drinks too much, and she is probably good at heart but I can't spend time getting to know her bc shes so abrasive. The times I've tried to befriend her, she talks about my mom when they're in tifts (all girls it happens) and I don't appreciate what she says. Everyone in my family knows not to make comments to me about my ma bc Im suuper defensive of her even if she's wrong I got her lol

Yesss I work very closely with a Cancer in my work family - she's my boss. And I LOVE HER. She's like a mom, always there for me always has my back, listens, reminds me of what is important, validates my words, makes me laugh, keeps us together. I'm not a Cancer though, I'm Aqua with a Cancer moon.. You're such a sweetheart too thanks for being supportive 🙂 My Cancer guy friends and I tend to gossip a lot, we give relationship advice that's totally unbiased. My other boss is a Cappy though she gives me more freedom but yes also very nurturing, love her too. 🙂
I suppose this belongs on the Cancer forum.

^^ Nooo I'm not. I work in escrow... But it's funny you ask because I have felt the need to give back and help people more strongly and frequently as of late, which could be my mama instinct kicking in. My Cancer moon completely overshadows my sun sometimes causing difficulty deciphering the facts from fiction caused by emotion; it's quite a powerful moon. 😉
