do you believe in horoscopes?????? Do they lie or are they true??? Any personal experiences??? I checked different web sites and one thing is the same there about me and my match and it sucks!

I don't believe in most of these things, although I think some may be genuine. Most of the horoscopes I have seen are so vague, they can be applied to anyone. Like, "Be careful with money this month - do not make impulsive decisions. You will also meet an interesting new stranger." This can be applied to everyone, not just an Aries or a Taurus.

I still read mine every day even though I don't really believe them, my personality description does fit me (Scorpio). But, like Annie24 said, they're very vague. If I wrote horoscopes, I'd make them very detailed, you know, just to creep a few people out:

LEO- Hey Kelly, that Jason is a jerk for dumping you . Get back at him by going out with his best friend. Don't forget, your period should be starting today!

That'd be pretty cool. :P

I do not believe them - how can stars millions of light years away have any effect on whether you are a good match with your lover or not!!

Part of me does and part of me doesn't but then when I read them sometimes they seem suspiciously true to what's happening around me. Like elila said my personality description fits me perfectly... I'm a Scorpio too. I like to believe they're true but like it's been said, sometimes they're a bit vague and could apply to anyone

Basically Mysterious, quiet, a little cynical. Scorpio's color is black. A water horoscope (meaning a 'cool' or 'unsettling' personality like the ocean or a pool) There's also masculine and feminine signs, I think Scorpio's are more 'masculine' but I can't remember.
And the fact that a scorpion has a 'stinger' says a lot about a Scorpio's personality. Two Scorpios should avoid having a relationship because they're both intense and can hurt each other. But it's really not supposed to be taken too seriously. You can be a Scorpio and still be talkative and very friendly (But you could also be talkative and friendly but still introverted.) I think of it as a coincedence that my sign describes me so well.

the only thing i learned about scorpios is that if trust is broken with a scorpio, their is little chance of rebuilding it..

All descriptions are roughly the same but this is one of the shorter one's:

The sun sign Scorpio is one of the most powerful astrological signs in the zodiac. Dynamic and forceful, they make excelent leaders. On a list of famous Scorpio's you will find several leaders. This is what they do best, lead. They are very determined and forceful, and do not accept failure as an option. It is not a good idea to get on Scorpio's bad side!

Only one thing hurt's scorpio, and that is their tendency to be emotional. However, being extremely intuitive, it helps them deal with this, and even gives them a physic edge in some situation. They live hard and love hard, and give their hearts fully and unconditionally. Woe be the one to break Scorpio's heart! There will be a price, the sting of this scorpion can be deadly!

Powerful, passionate, exciting and magnetic, these people also make some of the best sales and marketing gurus when they decide to enter this field. They also do well as stock brokers and finacial advisers because they are not afraid to question anything, and look outside the box and think creatively.

Scorpio does have a problem with jealousy sometimes, and they really do have to work on it. Most of them will require proof before actually accusing, but some will go with their instinct. Since they are so intuitive, sometimes they "know" without proof, so if you are with a Scorpio,

Like everyone says...they're fake...like someone said, how the hell could a star predict how your day/week/month is gonna go and predict your personality? I mean com'on...all these so-called horoscopes are written by PEOPLE...just like you and me, what makes you think an equal person just making up crap that makes you feel good or bad about your day is going to know what's goin to happen to you. I really abhor the fact that people believe in it so much tho...talking at work and asking people what they're 'signs' are....drives me nuts that they believe in something like that and some people take it way too seriously...
