Interesting, I like this question!

---

Scorpio - I think they’re the most misunderstood cause people assume they’re toxic cause they can be ruthless when crossed but they will go to the end of the earth to protect the people they love. Most of the ones I’ve met (inc my best friend of over a decade) are smart, driven, brave and have a wicked sense of humour 🖤
Taurus - A very close second! I love their passion and intelligence so much. In my experience they are reliable and honest, ambitious as fuck and aren’t afraid to speak their mind. I admire their strength and although they can be stubborn little shits, I really enjoy spending time with them and would deffo want them on my team if shit went sideways 🥰
Capricorn - I’ve known them to be loyal and determined. A little bit more chill than the top two but amazing listeners and good at giving advice 🥺
Virgo - Kind, patient and understanding. Logical thinkers who are always prepared cause they’ve thought of all the outcomes so I find them just soothing to be around as an anxious pisces 😋
Cancer - Ride or die type friends, they’re protective and loyal over those who are important to them. Good listeners and sensitive souls so we tend to understand each other well. Can be a bit moody and petty if you cross them though 😅
Aries - I have a love/hate relationship with Aries haha. I get on well with them but have a tendency to clash over certain things. I find them quite irritating in disagreements cause they’re a bit hot headed and competitive but when we get on, we get on well 😆
Libra - I can have a good laugh with them, their sense of humour and wittiness is unmatched. They can be a bit too extroverted and draining for me in large doses 🙂
Leo - Another love/hate relationship. I like their confidence and passion but sometimes it comes across as arrogant or attention seeking. I’ve met a few toxic Leos (I tend to find the males more likeable) but I’ve met some that I’ve really liked too ✌️
Aquarius - I haven’t met many so hard to form an opinion based on my experience which is why I’ve put them in the only gap haha. I would say very intelligent but being an air sign, a lot of their traits are probably not compatible with my own. So a mutual respect rather than a dislike 👍🏻
Sagittarius - I’ve met a few and they tend to be either people pleasing and disorganised but hilarious and optimistic or they can come across as blunt, rude and impatient. I can fuck with the first but not the second. Think we’re just very different people so don’t understand each other well or get the others approaches to situations 🤔
Gemini - Don’t think I’ve ever met one that I liked. They say one thing to you and another about you in my experience. Don’t trust them as far as I can throw them, their superiority complex irritates me and they can be flaky, shady and judgemental. Just not a compatible sign with pisces at all. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Astrologically it is a good pairing. Cancer and Capricorn are opposites so they generally have the same approach to life just differently, if that makes sense. It's a "meet me in the middle" type of pairing. There's obviously going to be some challenges as these signs are in opposition. Keep in mind though that we never look at just sun signs to determine compatibility in astrology. Moon, venus, mars and even mercury could all play a more important role, not to mention house overlays. Personally I am a Capricorn sun and stellium and my bf of 6 years is a cancer sun and stellium. Our relationship is generally really nice, fulfilling and peaceful. Our moon signs are also in opposition (though this generally isn't as good as opposing sun signs). Literally the best, most respected I'd ever felt in a relationship. I trusted him enough to LET. GO. and let him help me. Sagittarius is fun, exciting, and a good friend but they can be underhanded, unfeeling, and devious, even cruel. They’re a lot smarter than they get credit for. People forget that Jupiter is god of the big picture, as opposed to the small things that build the bigger picture, and that means the weaker & more vulnerable people around them sometimes get bulldozed. They can be extremely dogmatic and rigid in their views, particularly religious and philosophical ones. They are constantly searching for the capital-t Truth and don’t care as much about the little guy as they do about their ultimate Goal. As a Leo rising maybe I’m “into myself” but more accurately I can acknowledge and take pleasure in my strengths. Because I can do that, I’ll happily build you up - I instinctively want to make you feel good about yourself, and it’s genuine. I think the thing people sometimes don’t like is that I know I’m hot and I know I’m smart LOL. Underneath people’s instinctive horror at that is: 1) A woman shouldn’t feel good about herself, that’s not right, she can only feel good if it serves me in some way; and 2) Why don’t I get to feel good about myself? It’s entitlement and insecurity. He was Cancer Sun, Leo Ascendant, and Virgo moon also. This was the best relationship I've ever been in, and I'm not just saying that because he passed away. We got each other on another plane of existence somehow. Staying up all night giggling, knowing when it's time to go nuts and when it's time to stop, and mutually supportive. But all of my relationships at least start out strong. I dated a Cancer woman for a very long time, and it ended the way you are describing. Just drifted apart and left each other on read. The first six months were phenomenal though. It was a lot of people pleasing on both sides, with neither person really wanting to end or progress the relationship. I like Cancer women a lot and I am drawn to them as they exude feminine energy.

I am not going to condemn you entirely since I used to like astrology too as a teenager. It is fun sometimes to explore it even now.
But as a coping mechanism for an adult, it doesn't sound beneficial at all. In fact, research has shown that people way too obsessed with astrology have narcissistic traits because the 'poetical' description of each aspect/sign/planet makes even toxic or harmful habits sound like good behaviour, or simply like something 'cool'. I prefer learning from mistakes rather than remaining as I am simply because a part of my chart, where Lilith conjuncts Venus and the Sun says that my inadequate conduct exudes sensuality or whatever...
Astrology is fun for most people as long as they can relate. Otherwise, they do not care. It is this particular element that, when taken to its extreme, induces a self-absorbed demeanour in its devotees.

Zodiac is something like celestial things. In Chinese culture, they are also have their own zodiac based by year they born. Me, I am boar/pig in chinese zodiac. In western zodiac, I am scorpio. Either way, the resembles of my traits are mostly 60% but 40% possibly from my environment. In my point of view, I see this as a mini educational to learn myself (my character) based on my birdate and year and my character. If it talks about prophecy, I rarely believe it but if it talks about my characteristic, I take it some and partially. I see it just for fun and to fill my boredom. My adage is: If it’s not science, it’s superstition. Also, I question your education. Was magical thinking and fortune telling any part of it? Can anyone show it works and how it works? Astrology is a first cousin to racism and sexism. There has never been any actual research done on astrology stereotyping. Why bother when enough people give it a religious like belief and don’t question. It’s myth based or just plain made. It is great to use for excuses and avoiding personal responsibility. Just blame a calendar date. Your birthday or someone’s else’s. They don't matter and have no correlation to anything but it's innocuous and gives people something to talk about
Nah, people are incompatible depending on their values, attitudes and interests but blaming the stars might be easier
Personally I think it's a load of nonsense but to each his own.
I'm sure I hold beliefs that some people feel that same way about.

What are some useful tactics/ways to get a Scorpio man to open up emotionally?
I've been seeing this Scorpio (Gemini rising, Libra moon, Virgo Venus) for 6 months now. We are seeing each other exclusively but aren't calling it a relationship. He's said that he's happy with keeping it casual (How is it casual if we're not seeing other people?). He's admitted that he's not exactly the most expressive person and that it isn't easy for him to talk about feelings etc. and to top it all, he's never been in a relationship through no fault of his own. I understand that. However, I'm slowly running out of patience. I've been doing my best to be accepting, to be there for him, and to not judge but I just need some reassurance now that he's not going to wake up one day and decide to leave. I can feel that he likes me and has said that he cares about me a lot but I can also feel that he's not letting me see it all. So I've been thinking of talking to him about it directly (in a nice and gentle way) but what are some ways in which I can make him feel that is safe to talk to me? I'm hopelessly stuck on a Scorpio guy. We aren't a couple but we talk frequently. I feel like I've shared a lot about myself to him, but he's not very talkative about himself. There are a couple things he'll share about readily (work, food, movies, music) but there's still so much I don't know about him. But he keeps texting me, and he says he likes talking to me, and he's said he doesn't mind if I talk more than him, so I guess I haven't scared him away? I know Scorpios are reputed to be private, so I'm afraid if I ask him too many personal questions he's going to feel interrogated and just stay closed up. But I also feel afraid that I talk so much about myself that I seem self-centered. I'm used to being around people who jump in and volunteer information about themselves much more readily, and I really don't know how to interact with someone who seems content to just let me chatter away. I just feel like I'm laying my soul out for him and getting not a whole lot of vulnerability in return. Is it just a matter of waiting until he feels more comfortable? Should I ask more questions? What do I do? How can you make a Scorpio guy fall in love with you? What are some things you should and shouldn’t do to get and keep a Scorpio guys attention? How do Scorpios behave when they like someone?
I can't help with the astrology part but it seems like the issues are that you are more emotionally expressive than he is, and that while you are both on the same page about not seeing other people, you're wanting a commitment that he hasn't given you yet. Is that more or less right? Looking at it from his perspective, things are probably great as they are. By "casual" he doesn't mean "non-monogamous" but he does mean taking it slow and easy. You're affectionate to him and he enjoys this connection with you.

Personally, I am a Capricorn, and I am really annoyed by most Leo's I meet. I think it is because I enjoy attention, and Leo's are big attention seekers. I prefer to work hard at whatever I am doing, in hopes that people will notice me. But then I still become bitter when a Leo so effortlessly gets the attention that I want. They also tend to be lucky and popular (at least the ones I know), and I am not. Things you dislike about your zodiac sign? What sign do you personally dislike the most? I do not judge people about something, so shallow as a zodiac sign. And it confuses me a bit that people who believe them have specific ones they dislike, because I see little to no difference of saying I dislike this sign compared to saying I dislike this ethnicity or race of people. As you basically alienating a hole group of people over a stereotype or generalisation.
Do you believe in zodiac signs?
I'm not the most spiritual person, but it still is pretty fun to read about my personality nonetheless. And more times than often, my personality does correlate with my sign.
What's your sign and do the personalities associated with your sign correlate to who you are? I believe in zodiac signs but I don't think it's fair to single one out to dislike them. I'm a Pisces myself and yes, the personalities associated with my sign do correlate to who I am. I think that's true about everybody, not just me. I've never met anybody who is the opposite of what their zodiac sign says they are. Being jealous of another person's popularity, regardless of zodiac signs, is no better than alienating a whole group of people over a stereotype or generalisation. You already know how I see astrology. Show it works and how it works, otherwise it doesn’t work. Great for making excuses and avoiding personal responsibility though. What make astrology the superior bigotry? How many people of each sign does one need to form accurate stereotypes. Five? Ten? Does gender and ethnicity make a difference? Age? Does a child immediately act like their sign or grow into it? Also explain the programming part. Happens instantly? No downloading time? Are the planets each emitting a energy beam traveling billions of miles to focus on my tiny head?
