Do you believe they are the true psychopaths of the zodiac?
What do you think about when you hear the word psychopaths? Most likely you are imagining big bad villains who are planning to destroy the world, but this depiction is not the most accurate one.
Psychopaths are all around us, and they can be anyone. From your partners to your friends, colleagues, and lovers, all people have potential, but some are more likely to be psychopaths than others.
Hopefully, you can use this incredible tool to spot them more easily. We are talking about astrology. Your stats can tell more about you than you might think, and sometimes there are some clues that can help you see what people truly are behind all the masks they put on when they are out in society.
Even more, all signs have a different style to showcase these psychopathic traits, and you are about to discover how some of the most dangerous signs present their madness. Always, be prepared! Information is key.
Sagittarius
More than likely, you’ve heard about Ted Bundy and Ed Kemper. Isn’t that right? The bad news is that both of them are Sagittarius, and what is even worse is that most serial killers who ever roamed this earth are all born under this sign.
It seems like these people tend to be psychopaths more often than the rest, and when you pair this with their smart nature and curiosity, you get a lethal combo. Most of us know Sagittarius for their adventurous spirit, charisma, and optimism, but under all of these surface traits, they hide a much darker archetype. They are the “seller psychopaths,” the experts of persuasion, always ready to use manipulation in order to achieve their goals.
They have mastered the “sales pitch” and can sell themselves better than anyone else. Is it easier now to understand how all of those serial killers operated? This is their secret. They are just very good at selling you illusions. Saggitarius asks you questions and makes you feel a fake sense of safety, and then they see what they can get from you. If there is something that is of interest to them, they won’t hesitate.
Whether it’s financial gain, personal validation, or simply the thrill of control, these psychopaths are in for the ride and will never back down. Also, remorse is not a word that exists in their vocabulary. This is what makes them the manipulation machines that they are.
Cancer
The crab is this crustacean that you usually find living between the land and the ocean. This is a great analogy of how people born under this sign manage to be in the real world and the realm of emotions at the same time. Most of us would probably describe them as the ultimate empaths who would do anything for those they love. But since we are talking about psychopaths, you were probably expecting this to take a dark turn.
If you ever saw them as the ultimate soulmate, you were very close to their real nature. Their archetype is the “Soulmate Psychopath,” who might be sweet and charming at first, but this is just a strategy they use to get what they want. Cancers are very good at mirroring your emotions, and they know how to use them to their advantage.
They make you think everything is perfect, all conversations are meaningful, and you can swear you’ve never felt more nurtured in your life. But this is all this calculated sweetness, just a facade designed to get under your skin. Once they’ve secured their hold, their true nature begins to emerge. Cancers can easily become possessive, controlling, and even emotionally aggressive.
We know that this transition can be jarring, but you should know what to expect from them. They are the psychopaths who prey on the deep emotional bonds they’ve cultivated with those around them.
Capricorn
This is a very determined and hardworking earth sign, right? Capricorns are calculated, and they want everything to turn out perfectly. Once they begin working on something, you can’t stop them from achieving their goal.
Discipline, ambition, and practicality are everything to them, but they become the most dangerous when paranoia takes a grip on them. This is why the archetype of these psychopaths is the “paranoid psychopath” one.
It’s true that they are never afraid of being alone because they are practically self-sufficient, but they have a big fear. Capricorns are so scared that people are going to betray them, and sometimes they go so far that they feel under threat when there is no threat around.
This is why they are in defensive mode all the time. Their mistrust extends to all aspects of their lives, leading them to see conspiracies and hidden motives where none exist. They are dangerous because sometimes they might interpret innocent gestures as potential threats and they will act accordingly. Protecting themselves and their goals is a priority, and they will do anything you can imagine to keep themselves safe.
Capricorns are also masters of projection. If anything goes wrong, they can very easily accuse others of the very wrongdoings they fear being exposed to. They also have a tendency to isolate themselves, stemming from the paranoia we were talking about earlier.
But what is even more dangerous is that Capricorns have this need to vindicate themselves, and if they feel triggered, they are the kind of psychopaths who craft elaborate revenge plots. So next time you are about to fight a Capricorn, think twice before you start.
Scorpio
A list of the zodiac signs most likely to be psychopaths that does not include Scorpio? Yeah, we know this is not possible, and this is why we have this entry here. These guys are incredibly emotional, and people know that they tend to hold grudges for life. If these are not some traits that fit perfectly into the psychopath mold, then we don’t know better ones to name.
They are intense individuals who love to have deep connections with those they get involved in romantic relationships. They are seductive and manipulative and will always be searching for a physical connection with the one they consider suitable to be their partner.
Scorpios use their physical energy to manipulate and seduce their victims. What is even worse is that they don’t care about societal norms or moral restraints, and this easily leads to dangerous behaviors that disregard boundaries, consent, and even the basic humanity of others.
Those born under these signs want to have control, and many times they will not consider how their actions make others feel. They want gratification, and they want it now! At this point, their endless search for connection doesn’t even matter at all because it’s all about the power dynamic that they love so much. The one that lets them take the lead. They want their target to feel small, and they are very good at making this happen.
