You like to know where you stand. However, with the world and the people around you changing, it may be better to be a little less clear about your plans and a little more inquisitive, especially when the unexpected arises. It could be that what is least expected today becomes your best friend tomorrow.
One of life’s skills is predicting the future based on the past
There are those who say that, as a Scorpio, you argue when changes are suggested. From your point of view, when you manage the conversation, if not manipulate it, it is because you know what you are willing to do and what you are not. When others suggest things you have no intention of doing, you will simply but politely change the subject.
However, what they’re suggesting may be interesting—partly because you simply never paid attention to it before, or because their enthusiasm about those activities or ideas is contagious, and you’re beginning to wonder if instead of sticking to your own views, you might actually benefit from trying things out.
This is a turning point for any Scorpio, and it is one that you will encounter again and again. Because Scorpio is what is termed a fixed sign, you are a creature of habit. Once you get into a habit, budging it is difficult.
This is why these breakthroughs are so important. They allow you not just to make changes, but to make discoveries—discoveries about the world around you, discoveries about the people around you, but probably most importantly, about yourself. You will embrace a new perspective on life around you and its possibilities—but most of all, what you personally can achieve, both now and in the future.
For you, micromanaging seems normal—simply watching what’s going on and, if you see things veering in what appears to be the wrong direction, pulling them back. Yet as you are increasingly aware, that means doing things in the same old way again and again. And not only are you getting a little bit bored, you’re realizing that there is a wide world of adventurous experiences waiting for you.
The idea of a regimen is appealing, especially when it comes to taking care of yourself—how you eat, when you get up, when you exercise, and, even to a certain extent, what you think. However, it doesn’t give you a lot of freedom. The more you realize you can have fun if you take chances and venture into new territory, the less appealing that regimen will be and the more appealing an adventurous life is.
You like to know where you stand. However, with the world and the people around you changing, it may be better to be a little less clear about your plans and a little more inquisitive, especially when the unexpected arises. It could be that what is least expected today becomes your best friend tomorrow.
Nobody would blame you for telling a particular individual how much of a nuisance their last-minute changes in plans are for you. Before you say anything, however, do a little investigation. You may well discover those changes weren’t their fault and they’re as unhappy about them as you are.
