Analizing a birthchart, it is very important to look both ways! Or the next truck is going to catapult you into orbit. Always look what the opposite figure is doing.
Dealing with opposite sides is very important to understand, how the story will work out. Everybody need a favourite enemy... so everybody gets what he/she merrits or desires.
An exemplary opposite couple are: Taurus and Scorpius. They are fighting the war between light and the shadow - destruction and creation.
The old legend of Mithras shows, that the holy bull and the minion of the evil, skorpio are responsible for creation, their blood mixed formed all beeing matter.
Taurus is creating and preserving matter. He/she is a family man/woman. The head of family, deciding what is the best for everyone. Usualy he/she is a tireless worker and a fair person.
Nothing wrong with that - but...
There is a weakness! "Everything should stay the way it is! It not broken - so don´t fix it!" This is his credo. Actually, I could say that it is frantic belief.
His change-phobia is transforming him/her into a despotic ruthless person. The only cure were if he/she could face the greatest fear - the fear to die, the fear that something has to end, or to change - and they cannot controll it.
Facing the own shadows and demons smashes the familiar world, the familiar lies and the usual behaviour... It smashes everything.
Scorpius is made of these chaotic energies, making the Taurus shit in his pants. For this zodiak sign, nothing is worse than beeing stuck in a structured boring life, which is predictable from the begining to the end. This vision is horrifing for him.
Scorpius is an unusual person driven to chaos, destuction, shadows and the dark deep sides of a human soul. He instinctively understands death, transformation and its mighty power to regenerate.
This the gift of the dark side: "Everything changes, this is the only everlasting thing, the only truth, so embrace it."
For Scorpius it is a joy to search for mysteries, to look for details and to puzzle things out. His affinity to odd things is legendary, as well as his love of freedom. It is hard for him to put up with a boss, or any supervisor. An automatic feeling of superiority influences his behaviour. So noone is good enough - nothing is good enough...
