What are "Intense Eyes" Really?

What is your definition of intense when it comes to eyes? To me, using the word "Intense" to describe someone's eyes seems rather broad. Whenever someone has "Intense" eyes in relation to a Scorpio Ascendant or a Scorpio Sun, the eyes (Especially in a dark brown color), usually have to have a somewhat intimidating quaility to them. Now we all know that not every Scorpio Sun or Scorpio Rising has eyes like these, so i think we are using the wrong word here. "Powerful" would be more appropriate.... i think. Power in the eyes draw you in, and it makes the eyes the first thing you notice about a person. It could be the color, shape, or the look in the eye, but something just goes "Pow!" when you look at that person's face, and i think this the "type" of intensity a lot of us Scorp risers have. For example, i think Talim from Soul Calibur has powerful eyes: people.tribe.net/b920f64c-...6edf63da67

I know, she's not real, but this is just to give you an idea as to what i'm talking about. Intense is a very broad word, and all too many times the word "Intense" when used in correlation to Scorpio, the more dark, maybe even evil type of intensity is brought to mind, which is a cookie-cutter stereotype at best. Intense or powerful doesn't always mean "Dark".

      Pentrating eyes. The kind that can see right into you and read all of your hidden secrets without a word. They can pierce your soul and make you feel so uncomfortable you blurt out a confession even when you had no intention of doing so. They never do a shallow scan of anything, people, a room, the road they're on, a park, etc. They are always piercing the surface to see what's below and they are uncannily accurate. Those are Scorpion eyes. My mother has them and it unnerves me when I look in the mirror and see her gaze staring back. I can see how it intimidates other people.

        Ive read about this "Intense eyes" thing regarding Scorpio ascendants. Take one look at Tom Cruise's face and POW!
        People have told me that I have a very intense stare. Its a good asset to have! OWN IT! Its awsome when you want to get the truth out of people. Its even better when you are in the same room as someone who has DEEPLY WRONGED you, and they can not handle it. Its an "overall presence" being a Scorpio Riser! We intimidate and make an impression.

          Exactly <Its even better when you are in the same room as someone who has DEEPLY WRONGED you, and they can not handle it> I have experienced.. one person had cheated me and then when I came to know that.. I called him to my farm house and then I didn't speak a word..I just looked at or rather into/through him and the next moment he made a confession in tears....Intensity was too much for him to handle..I think We SCORPIO RISERS have a lot of Presence and its REALLY INTENSE......

    Could "intense eyes" simply be eyes that do not look away? Eyes that keep on looking you into your face, without a smile or anything else that would most people find assuring?
    I mean it's pretty intimidating if someone does not look away in the first place, when you have eye contact. And if this staring into your face is not accompanied by any sign of friendliness, I think that facial expression is the same as when someone is extremely angry and ready to lash out.

    I'm not a scorpio rising but have a natal trine from pluto to my ascendant - and transiting pluto is going through my 1st house. Lately I've been experimenting with this intimidating sort of look. It's not very hard. All I need to do is make sure I keep a blank face, stare into their eyes with no friendliness whatshowever, and everyone is getting nervous.

    hm, intense eyes I'd say is something that makes one's own eyes grow bigger when they suddenly look at those "intense eyes"

    a bit of a combination between surprise and shock... but pleasantly so

    I'd have to say that the answer to this question lies in breaking down the word: "in" and "tense." As Scorpio's opposite sign, Tauruses tend to show an outward tension and sharpness, whereas they can be big softies on the inside. Scorpios on the other hand usually appear very soft and pliable, but behind the gracious exterior tend to be very tense and emotionally controlled, always ready to attack if needs be, though we are careful not to show this side unless absolutely necessary.
