These 3 Zodiac Signs Are the Biggest Manipulators

While nobody can claim to be perfect, there are those of us who are more susceptible to being manipulated or already displaying this pathological behavior.

There is a line between lying to and deceiving other people out of wisdom and social intelligence and doing so in order to gain something for oneself.

Unfortunately, the majority of manipulators prefer a sense of control, dominance, and the suffering of other people above everything else.

These are people we would trust, but who betray us the moment they find a way to make it more convenient for themselves, mainly due to the fact that they are unable to process their emotions in the same manner as their “victims.”

Therefore, they fall into the dark triad of the spectrum as they don't understand empathy and the feelings of others. Did you know 3 zodiac signs are prone to manipulation more than others?

While it isn't always the case, especially based on your own experience, there is a tendency for these 3 signs to be the biggest manipulators.

 

 

Scorpio

When it comes to manipulating and deceiving other people, Scorpio is without a doubt at the top of the list.

The knowledge that enables them to deceive everyone around them so expertly also comes through their apparent love for people and their psyche, which serves as a great asset for them to seek approval and the attention they want from others.

It is a well-known fact about Scorpios that they do not pass judgment on the actions of other people and even sympathize with those who have a tendency to cause chaos for both themselves and others.

However, this is all inherent to who they are, and in order to comprehend it, one needs to be familiar with the story of the toad and the scorpion:

One day, as a toad was getting ready to cross a river peacefully, he was approached by a scorpion who asked for his assistance. The scorpion addressed the toad in a friendly manner and inquired, “Would you help me cross the river, toad?”

After that, the toad spoke up in a calm manner and said, “I'm not sure if I can trust you; what if you stab me with your stinger?” The scorpion reassured her, saying, “There is no need for you to be afraid!” If I did that, both of us would drown.

The toad gave in, and the scorpion hopped on her back so they could cross the river together. But as they were making their way across the river, the scorpion did what was bound to happen and stung the toad.

After that, the toad yelled at the frog, “Why did you do that? You're going to kill yourself now!” But the scorpion whispered back, “I'm afraid I can't help it; it's in my nature.”

Never, ever believe a lie or story that a Scorpio tells you, no matter how sweet, innocent, helpless, or emotionally vulnerable they seem; Scorpios are masters at manipulating your emotions to get what they want.

The suffering and attention of other people are sure to feed both their ignorance and their ego.

 

 

Leo

The fact that Leo comes in second place on the list is something that is sure to hurt their ego. Regardless of the many virtues and abilities Leo expresses, also tends to be a slave to others' attention.

Therefore, it is not unusual for them to aspire to greatness throughout the course of their lives, but at the same time, they enjoy being dominant and putting others down.

Both the women and the men of this zodiac sign enjoy exerting their authority over their significant other and even over their friends;

People should always respect and admire Leos and never question their greatness because if they do, Leos will target a perceived vulnerability in them and use it as a weapon against them, shattering their confidence.

Leos are under the impression that the sum total of their accomplishments makes them more valuable than anyone else;

Or that as a result of those accomplishments, they are deserving to have whatever it is that they want and are even allowed to act irresponsibly without fear of any negative consequences.

Because of this, they prefer to surround themselves with people who appear to have less success or more sensitivity than they do, mainly due to the fact that those people give Leos an ego boost.

It doesn't appear to matter how much admiration and attention they receive, it's never going to be enough for them.

 

 

Pisces

Pisces are known for being highly emotional and selfless, which leads many to believe that they are not likely to manipulate others.

On the other hand, I like to remind people that the sign of Pisces is depicted by two fish, which stands for the dual nature of things.

As a result, you are able to live on the edge of the two polar opposites and can make someone's life either heaven or hell on earth because of the intense feelings that they experience and the very pessimistic outlook that they have on life

They frequently project their insecurities onto the people closest to them in their lives. When they believe that someone has abused their love, they frequently respond in a manner that is highly manipulative and vindictive.

Pisces can be manipulative, but only if they are provoked in the first place. On the other hand, this manipulation can, at times, be so extreme that it makes them appear to be the most malicious person you have ever encountered in your life.

If you just ended a relationship with a Pisces, the next day he will start dating someone else solely for the purpose of making you angry or they may tell you lies to make you feel insecure.

After all, their sense of self-confidence depends on the fictitious image of themselves and the insecurity that they trigger in those around them.

They also experience constant feelings of insecurity, but rather than working on improving their own self-esteem, they choose to direct these feelings toward others instead.

Pisces is also capable of learning from their mistakes and evolving but by this point, they may have lost many of the people they loved.
