I personally wouldn’t say that Scorpios are judgemental. But, Scorpios do not ever want to get hurt so they don’t easily trust people.
Because of their fear of being betrayed by someone they usually spend a lot of time watching people and analyzing what someone is saying to them.
They do this to catch you in a lie. While this could make them seem judgemental, it really is just a defense mechanism.
Other than that I don’t see any other way a Scorpio may come off as being judgemental.
So what does all of this mean? Let’s take a closer look.
Personality Traits of Scorpio
Scorpios have many admirable traits—they’re passionate, assertive, loyal, and brave.
However, they are also known for being suspicious and secretive—traits that can lead to difficulty trusting others.
They are also very sensitive, can pick up on certain energies, and often feel deeply about things which can make them come off as overly critical or judgemental in certain situations.
When Scorpios Judge Others
It’s important to remember that when a Scorpio seems judgemental it is likely out of fear rather than an actual desire to judge another person.
Because they do not want to be betrayed or hurt by someone else again, they may find themselves scrutinizing even the most innocent conversations or situations in order to protect themselves from potential harm or betrayal in the future.
As such, other people may interpret this behavior as judgemental when it is really just a form of self-preservation for the Scorpio.
How To Deal With A Judgemental Scorpio
If you consider yourself a friend or family member of a Scorpio who you think may be exhibiting judgmental behavior towards you, there are steps you can take to help ease the situation.
First, try and understand why they might be feeling anxious or guarded around you—it could have nothing to do with you at all!
Then try talking openly with them about how their behavior makes you feel and how it affects your relationship with them.
Most importantly, let them know that you care about them, they always have your support and you’re just trying to improve your relationship with them so that you can get to know and understand each other better.
What is Something Scorpios Might Judge Others For
If a Scorpio judged someone, it would typically be for acts of dishonesty and betrayal such as lying to them, being deceitful, being disrespectful and unkind to others, or someone cheating on them.
They strongly expect loyalty from those they allow close and will punish those who don’t keep their promises or break their trust in any way.
Along with that, they are passionate about defending the people they care about and will not hesitate to call out those who treat them or other people badly.
Because of their intense emotional awareness and capacity for deep connection, this often means they can see right through those with bad intentions.
Generally speaking though, Scorpios do care deeply about the people in their life and can usually see through these social behaviors without having to judge or criticize anyone too harshly.
Do Scorpios Judge and Criticize Others For Choices They Make?
Scorpios don’t necessarily criticize others for choices they make, but they will give their opinions to people close to them (if their opinions are asked for)
These opinions may not be what others want to hear and may make a Scorpio seem too intense or critical.
But usually, the things they say to others to help them is usually coming from a good place, especially if a family member or friend is asking for advice.
Though some may view Scorpios as quick to judge and criticize others, it really depends on the individual and the choices being made in order for Scorpios to form an opinion about them.
Generally speaking, Scorpios are more likely to express understanding of another’s choice instead of condemnation or criticism.
If a choice goes against their beliefs or values, however, they can become internally conflicted and express frustration with someone in the process.
It’s important to remember that judgment or criticism from a Scorpio probably stems from some sort of strong emotion they feel related to the situation – even if they don’t directly vocalize it.
But, you probably shouldn’t take everything they say too seriously in the moment because they may realize later that your choice was perfectly valid for your situation.
Scorpios Are Not Judgemental: They’re Guarded
Some Scorpios may be judgemental but most Scorpios like to mind their own business and do not use their time to criticize others.
At the end of the day, while it’s true that Scorpios may seem judgemental at times due to their natural sensitivity and need for self-preservation, it doesn’t mean that they are actually judging others unfairly.
Instead of taking offense at their behavior, try understanding where their feelings stem from and then work together on building trust between each other so that everyone feels comfortable and secure in the relationship.
By doing this you and I can help foster stronger connections between all of us – no matter our zodiac sign!
