While all people, and therefore all zodiac signs are capable and culpable when it comes to blatant untruths, white lies, abject dishonesty, intricate webs of fiction a🍸nd fabricated yarns, there are a few among the wheel that tick the top for biggest liar.

In his epic novel, Scorpio Michael Ende writes, “When it comes to controlling human beings there is no better instrument than lies. Because, you see, humans live by beliefs. And beliefs can be manipula𝕴ted. The power to manipulate beliefs is 𒐪the only thing that counts.”

Controlling h🌠umans? Manipulating belief structures, points made and taken l🐎ike a true, and truly ruthless scorpion.

In tribute 🌳to tal✃l tales and the tell tale nose of a wooden puppet, here are the signs that rank high when it comes to telling lies.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)

Geminis l🦹ie because for them, the truth is a shifting, negotiable, nebulous orb of possibilities and their recollection of facts and events is equal parts actual occurrence and absolute hallucination.

A Gemini’s relationship with honesty is on and off and utterly dependent on the mood they are in and the agenda they are pushing. Donald Trump, Kanye West 💧and Hubert-Joseph Henry are all Gemin𝓰is.

I rest my case.

Well versed in the art of omission, Scorpios leverage the lies of others and wield their own own likﷺe a well loved weapon.

Often, their withholding, of both truth and intimacy, is the syꦬmptom of an inability to trust others and/or themselves.

Chronically suspicious, Scorpios harbor the fear that everyone is out to overpower or outwit them so they often lie in a bid to dominate their 𒀰opponent, enemy, child, lover or dog walker.

Aces as they are at psychological manipulation, when caught in a lie a Sco♌rpio will make their accuser question the fabric of their own reality to such a degree that truth as a concept is called into question.

They succeed becau🏅se they love a cover up and thrive in shad🎀ow.

There is no no𝔍table list of Scorpio liars because as maste🌌rs of the game, they rarely fail or fall into being found out.

CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)

Capricorns don’t lie for pleasure, it’s all business baby.

They utter untruths solely to get 🧸a🌃head, play the game and make a buck.

We see this modality in the deceptions of some of history’s most famous sea goats, including but not limited to Richard “Watergate” Nixon, Robert “Believe It or Not” Ripley, Benedict “traitor” Arnold, Anna “Anastasia imposter” Anderson, Pope Alexander VI, Kim “double agent” Philby and Victor Lustwig.
