2045.0. "Striking a cord?" by WRKSYS::MACKAY_E () Thu May 18 1995 14:06

    
    I am in the process of finishing up a book called
    Imperial Woman by Pearl Buck. It is the life story 
    of the last ruling Empress of China. As I was 
    reading this, I started to feel kind of creepy. Now, 
    Pearl Buck was an excellent writer, she won a Nobel 
    Prize for Literature and a Pulitzer Prize. I've read
    a couple of her other books. But this one, I could
    almost get into the skin of this Empress, I could
    almost feel the emotions. I realized some time during
    lunch as I was recalling what I read last night,
    that she was born in the autumn, around Oct/Nov
    time frame. She must have been a Scorpio. Her temperment,
    her beauty, etc, was typical Scorpion-like. 
    
    This is the second time that I feel this way about a
    person. The first time I was reading the biography of
    Picasso, my most favorite painter.  He was a Scorpio, 
    too, to the fullest extent. I didn't feel creepy that 
    time, even though I could feel all the pain and emotions 
    in him, I could not imagine being a man!
    
    And yes, I am a Scorpio, sometimes to scared to admit
    it...
    
    Maybe I have too good an imagination...Has anybody felt
    the same way when reading about people?
