You’d think water signs like Scorpio and Pisces would get along great since they’re both water. Nope, not usually the case. In a lot of ways, they’re similar, but they also have some big differences that cause issues. Scorpio can’t stand how emotional and sensitive Pisces is. And Pisces hates how intense and brooding Scorpio gets. It’s like oil and water.
The Personality Differences Between Scorpios And Pisces
Scorpios and Pisces may share the same elemental water sign, but their personalities couldn’t be more different. Scorpios are super intense and passionate, while Pisces are more dreamy and imaginative.
Scorpios are all about uncovering mysteries, whether that’s through talking to people or traveling places. But Pisces would rather just sit around all day thinking about mysteries. You could say Scorpios are the doers and Pisces are the dreamers.
And Scorpios really know what they want – they’ll be super determined to get it no matter what. They may even manipulate things if they have to! But Pisces tend to struggle with making decisions and just go with the flow more.
With how different they are it’s no wonder these signs clash a lot. Other than the water element thing they don’t have much in common.
Why Scorpios Don’t Like Pisces
Scorpios are really intense and all-in when it comes to relationships. For them, intimacy is everything or nothing. Pisces, on the other hand, tend to just go with the flow in love and see it as this mystical, spiritual kind of union.
Scorpios don’t like Pisces because they find them cold and boring, at least when it comes to getting intimate. Scorpios crave that fiery passion, and many Pisces aren’t able to provide that same level of heat, at least in the intimacy department.
Pisces also tend to be pretty laid back – they’ll do what they’re told or just follow their own dreamy path. While that works for Pisces, it can feel a bit boring or “dry” for intense Scorpios.
When it comes to conversations, Scorpios want to dive deep. They’re looking to explore big fears, dreams, and desires with their partner on a deeper level. Pisces conversations tend toward more fanciful, flowery phrases. Pisces also take their time responding sometimes. But Scorpios want answers now when they ask a question. They’re very much in the moment.
While Scorpios and Pisces connect differently, their styles don’t always mesh perfectly when it comes to intimacy, energy levels, and communication habits.
Pisces Won’t Get Manipulated
You might think the simplest way for a Scorpio to get a Pisces to see things their way would be through manipulation. But it actually doesn’t work out that way. Funnily enough, Scorpios can’t manipulate Pisces because Pisces can see right through them. So when Pisces sense Scorpio’s intentions, they usually swim away quickly.
Now, while Pisces are known as one of the most compliant signs that can be influenced, something different happens with Scorpio. It’s almost like Pisces have a sixth sense for what Scorpio is planning next. Could this be part of why Scorpios aren’t too fond of Pisces? Maybe. But there does seem to be something about water signs and their ability to smell BS or manipulation from other water signs, even if they can’t from other zodiac types as easily.
Time To Think About It, Scorpios
The stars have aligned in such a way that you and Pisces just don’t seem to click, at least when it comes to love and relationships. But as friends, you two can get along great. And who knows, maybe down the line that could turn into something more.
And if you’re a Scorpio who’s never been able to figure out what’s kept them from really connecting with Pisces romantically in the past, it may be time for some self-reflection. Could it be that something about you tends to push Pisces away? Maybe you come on a little too strong or get a bit too intense for their tastes. You, Scorpios, do have a habit of diving in headfirst! So take a step back and think about how your actions or energy might be perceived by a sensitive Pisces.
