To Fool or To be Fooled: 7 ways Scorpios know when people are trying to fool them
We meet people on the daily. However, the situation changes when we meet someone who we think is dangerous. Sometimes, we even second-guess and convince ourselves otherwise. What if I am just wrong? What if I am just being judgemental?
Scorpios, as previously established, are straightforward and intelligent people. They hook onto their prey and will never let go of it until they deem necessary.
As a Scorpio, you are perceptive and great at discerning enemies, but if today and tomorrow’s senses are duller than usual, you can take note of these simple tips to help you recognize those who are trying to fool you.
Ever felt the lingering sensation of danger and uncertainty whenever you are talking to that one person who claims to be a friend? Well, don’t be fooled because they are most likely not.
As a Scorpio, you are a natural at sensing the environment you live in. You can detect which places and which people are dangerous, so it is no surprise that a mere sense of gut can give you the right answers.
Remember, always trust your gut feeling. It may not give you a sense of security in the heat of the moment, but you will surely thank yourself when you escape trouble because you trusted yourself.
If you feel like a person is lying straight at your face, your best bet in ensuring they really are fooling you is by taking a look at their body language. Are they suddenly sweating? Are they blinking more and faster than usual? Do you see them biting their lips? Perhaps, they really are.
Scorpios are always sharp, so detecting these little details are a piece of cake for you! You should be able to navigate these social situations better than the average person, but if you can’t, use this tip the next time you’re out and about meeting other people.
Apart from body language, another point of reference you can use to determine a person’s motives is through their actions. Sometimes, people will say things, yet do the opposite. In addition, some may even manipulate you into doing the things they want, so be careful!
Since Scorpios have the power to persuade, it is no surprise that they can also detect whenever someone is trying to coax them maliciously. With a combination of your natural charm and deep emotional intelligence, you can surely catch up to the schemes of a malevolent being!
Ever get deja-vu from a certain situation but choose to do something different this time? That is because of your intuition! Since intuition comes from experience, it is something that you cannot develop in a blink of an eye. But, for some reason, Scorpios are masters of this…
As a Scorpio, you are well-versed in street-smarts and filled with intuition. You don’t even need to explain why a certain phenomena is going to happen because you can just feel it deep within your bones! Since you, as a Scorpio, never lack depth, your emotional intelligence helps you a lot whenever you are trying to make a decision.
Have you ever noticed that you avoid people that move, dress, and act a certain way? That might just be your intuition kicking in to save your time and energy!
Always consider the facts! As a science-driven person, Scorpios often consider what is factual as evidence rather than plain hearsays. Do you often find yourself asking down to the nitty gritty details? It's probably because you are a Scorpio.
Always take note and make sure that your observations are as specific as possible. Whenever someone is trying to fool you, they may not seem like it at first, but after a lot of time and effort, they’ll eventually show their true colors. I’m not saying overthink every single thing about that person; just dig deeper when you feel something strange.
Who doesn’t like excellent questions? As a Scorpio, straightforwardness is one of your greatest strengths while simultaneously being your greatest weakness. However, asking very frank questions might offend some people if done too much, so the perfect thing to do is to ask the right questions from the start. Not only will you get the most accurate answers, but you will also avoid being an inconvenience.
If someone is fooling you, you could really catch them red handed or off-guard if you know how to interrogate effectively and efficiently. Since Scorpios also have deep emotional intelligence, they are able to keep their mind open and not jump into hasty conclusions.
As always, sometimes the best answer is what we see and what we have deduced! If you ever get the feeling that someone is fooling you, you can just tell by how they present themselves to you versus the people around you.
Obviously, someone’s going to maliciously suck up to you because of something you possess; the same goes for someone who is deliberately taking advantage of you because of your convenience. Be it money, fame, or as a means of propelling themselves higher, almost everyone will always give you the “better” or “worse” treatment depending on what you currently possess.
This marks the end of our tips. The next time you are meeting someone new, do take the time to silently observe them and take note of their body language, their actions, and what you are feeling. It’s better to be safe than sorry; do not be fooled by flowery words!
As a Scorpio, it is only natural that you feel overprotective towards your friends, your family, and even your partner. Try to clearly communicate with your loved ones on why you feel a certain way about a specific person, so they can also be aware of the situation.
