Being deeply emotional themselves, Scorpios understand and accept the feelings and pain that other signs often find they can not handle.
Magnetism:
Scorpio is not afraid to go into the darkness so this sign makes an ideal therapist, and many doctors and surgeons are Scorpios, using their incisive skills in a constructive way. Scorpios also have incredible personal magnetism and can be very loyal and devoted friends or lovers.
The Darker Side:
Scorpios have a hidden and secretive side and are not averse to using their very deep understanding of other people for their own ends- usually directed towards gaining power.
Grudges:
Indeed, Scorpio has a fascination with power, how to use it, how to master it, and how to hold it over people. At times this can extend into extreme cruelty, for Scorpio is a vindictive, brooding sign which never forgets a grudge. Scorpio can also have an inner self-destruct button which is pushed compulsively from time to time.
Penetrator:
The Scorpio personality has a habit of reaching the parts other signs would not wish to reach. Scorpio's steely gaze can penetrate to your very core . But their piercing intuitive powers are often hidden by an exterior that gives no clues as to their findings.

The Darker Side:

Tactless, boastfulness and thinking with one's mouth are their faults which tend to upset other people. And so too does a Sagittarius redundancy to moralize and 'preach' what other people should do- without of course following the same rules themselves

Loyalties:

One of the their great difficulties lies in relationships. They find it extremely easy to be entirely faithful to two people at once. When bored they are a danger to themselves and others.

Taken from The Complete Handbook of Astrology. Again not my work

The Bright Side:

One of the Capricorn personality's most positive features is its sense humor. This is something which often sustains them in their efforts to impose some order on the world, or wisely maser its resources. Although the humor is likely to be dry, it does involve contact with other people (something that the self-contained Capricorn does not excel at). What their personality is very good at is everything that others (expect other earth signs) find a little tedious. They are endlessly patient, prudent, reliable, persevering and disciplined.

Inhibited: (The darker side)

They an be extremely rigid and pessimistic in their outlook; and gloomy and depressed (and depressing) in their interaction with other people. They can also be emotionaly cold and inhibited. The prudent and cautious side of their nature can be taken to extremes, too, sometimes into the unsciable realm of the miser

Authoritarian:

The Capricorn's need to be in control can even extend to the outer limits of authoritism. They distrust anything spontaneous, if tends to deflect them from their sense of purpose which is to go all out to change their environment to suit their needs.

Conserver:

Most Capricorn are in favor of conserving assets and are firm supporters of a things traditional and conventional. Their basic motivation is security. They can also become fanatical moralists, opposing anything that contradicts their view of the world. But they are also widely known for their generosity of nature.


Aquarius Characteristics

Taken from The Complete Handbook of Astrology. Again not my work

The Bright Side:

They are lively, intentive and original.Anything goes with Aquarius, and being an individual does not worry this sign: in fact, Aquarius is always out of step with the rest of the world and revels in anything that is 'different'.

Eccentric:

Aquarius is also one of the most happily eccentric of the signs. Although it can be extremely difficult to get close to them, this is a fixed sign and so is loyal and faithful. Ask an Aquarian for help and you will immediately get it, for this sign has a very soft touch and would willingly give some people the shirt of their back if necessary.

Unpredictable: (The darker side)

The Aquarian personality can be chaotic and unpredictable, stubborn and rebellious, cranky and perverse. It is a sign which can be totally dedicated to being unconventional. whilst remaining stuck in a rigid, unrecognized pattern. It is also a sign which can become detached to the point of coldness, making it very difficult for ordinary mortals to relate to them. They do not care what the world thinks, however, so that social conventions are sometimes thrown out the window in favor of anarchy. The isolation this can sometimes bring can come as a surprise to them as they find it difficult to see how they might have behaved unreasonably.

Humanitarian:

The Aquarian personality is one of the most impersonal and detached, yet Aquarius has a deep care and concern for humanity. A progressive reformer, Aquarius is also full of humanitarian ideals, giving them a reputation for keeping their heads in the clouds.

Taken from The Complete Handbook of Astrology. Again not my work

The Bright Side:

Pisces is sympathetic and compassionate, and cannot bear to see another human being in pain. Indeed, they feel very deeply about other people as they do not have a strong sense of separation and individuality.

Intuition:

Pisces is an intuitive sign which can receive great inspiration from beyond. They are thus the natural mediums and mystics of the zodiac who can communicate their inner vision through either the arts or sciences. Pisces can also be a sign of selfness or self-sacrificing and devotion, and is capable of truly unconditional love for others.

Guilt-ridden: (The darker side)

The Pisces personality has a number of sub-personalities who are likely to take over at the drop of a hat. They include the victim, the martyr and the savior or rescuer; and once they get locked into these patterns, it can b very difficult to shift. This can be hard on other people involved too or Pisces can inflict or receive, considerable suffering when they enter into guilt-ridden phases. The other negative trait involved the illusion and confusion which surrounds their ability to tell the truth- known as lying by the more pragmatic signs. They tend to be too imaginative for their own good.

Dreamer :

The Pisces personality is the most unwordly one in the zodiac. It is the poet, the dreamer, or the psychic who enjoys being taken away from the mundane reality of everyday life. Pisces become trapped by circumstance in any one place, they will seek solace from their own inner world.

Taken from The Complete Handbook of Astrology. Again not my work

Taureans are extremely faithful, with a strong need for security and a settled routine. Although they have Earth as their element, they can be highly romantic and sensitive when it comes to love.

Security

Security is of paramount importance to Taureans, and emotional contentment and stability come high on their list of priorities.

Although passionate, they are steadfast which may not appeal to those who crave the constant excitement. Nevertheless, there are many who fall for that Taurean charm, those film star good looks and that placid, easy-going nature.

Taureans like to take things slowly, and they make no exceptions to this rule when it comes to love. infact, they like to be extra sure of sweethearts before they commit themselves, so they often spend lots of time getting to know them well.

Reliability is second nature to Taureans, which means that they are faithful lovers. But they can be over-poweringly possessive. They need to learn to let go and give their partners the freedom they need, or they may end up alone. When in a serious relationship, marriage is often a better solution than living together, since it helps boost their much-needed sense of security. They are often traditionalists who prefer not to fly in the face of convention.

Faithful Mate

Although they do not sweep prospective lovers off their feet, Taureans are incurable romantics and shower their loved ones with gifts. Once in love, they are prepared to make a commitment and remain very faithful.
