There are two kinds of goalposts that can be put up when it comes to goals and challenges. The kind you see in the playing field are planted firmly on the ground. They are the type that many people live with. However, as an intuitive water sign, it’s vital to be aware that you could move your own goalposts, so that what is most important to you, whatever you do and achieve, brings you joy.
Accepting others’ shortcomings isn’t easy, but accepting mine is another matter
As a Scorpio, you have a tender heart. You’re a water sign, and water signs are more sensitive than others. Of course, you are ruled by the powerful Pluto, so you have a great deal of focus. Yet there are many Scorpios who work in areas that require tenderness—from being involved in fashion to actors, artists, and writers. Whether famous or not, a large portion of their nature is involved, not in following some objective achievement, but in expressing something more artistic.
That is a part of you, too, and it’s an essential part of your nature. It is also vital to your relationships with others. It may be that not everyone understands this, which is what’s tricky, because, of course, not everyone else is a water sign, and even those who are water signs don’t always understand the importance of this soft side of life and of nature.
However, the more you understand it and the more you share it and discuss it with others, the deeper this will become. Not only will it become an important part of your life, it is something that will become an increasingly important part of the lives of those around you. In that sense, you will not only be improving your own existence, you’ll be improving the existence and well-being of others and, even to a certain extent, the world.
Being open and vulnerable about feelings can have a cost. In certain situations, others will be grumpy or difficult, and you might regret having discussed things. That is, until the individual in question begins to tell you how much what you said to them meant, and you’ll realize there are few things more powerful than talking about your feelings.
We are all told stories in childhood about what is good for us and what isn’t. Yet there are certain things you decide as an adult you didn’t like. The time has come for you to dump all of those stories and decide what feels good to you, in terms of both what to eat and what to do, and to benefit from the joys that come with making those choices.

Sometimes obstacles are just difficult situations that need to be overcome. But what you are currently facing is an invitation to delve into and learn about an increasingly tricky matter. While the actual process might be challenging, what you discover will more than justify the effort required.
