Scorpios are passionate and assertive people with determination and focus you rarely see in other zodiac signs. They will turn to in-depth research to reach the truth behind anything they find important. Great leaders and guides, Scorpios are resourceful, dedicated and fearless when there is challenge to be overcome. They will hold on to other people’s secrets, even when they aren’t very fond of them to begin with and do anything they can for those they tie themselves to.
This is a Water sign, just as Cancer and Pisces, and its representatives have to experience, express and face emotions. Always fighting dishonesty of any kind, they have to learn not to manipulate or turn people to look their way by methods that aren’t straightforward and clean. These inner tendencies sometimes make them distrustful and jealous, suspicion leading them to strange behavioral patterns they have to unveil.
The rulers of Scorpio are Pluto and Mars, one of them being the planet of transformation and regeneration, and the other pushing them forwards and providing them with enough initiative to build their lives energetic and strong. These individuals are known for being calm and cool, looking mysterious and hard to figure out. There is a deep understanding of the rules of the Universe inside every Scorpio that gives them the power others rush through life rarely recognizing within.
Scorpio – the Deadly Warrior Sent by the goddess to kill someone, this is a sign in search for their pray. Fearless and unstoppable, when they have a cause to fight for, they will do it relentlessly and without paying attention to possible karmic or other consequences. With deep self-awareness they discover ways to go around their deepest, darkest motives, and shove their talents under the rug along with their dark desires. They need to set free from taboos and restrictions, discovering freedom to scream and fight for their beliefs in order to find peace and happiness.

Love, Sex & Compatibility
Scorpio is the sign of sexuality and ultimate physically-emotional bonding with other people. Its representatives are extremely passionate, in constant search for absolute intimacy and love that will fill their entire lives with surrender, pleasure, and unity. Their partners have to be intelligent, practical, and honest, and compatibility of Scorpio with other signs depends greatly on their individual ability to embrace shadows within. Once they fall in love, they tend to be dedicated and faithful, and sometimes obsessive, possessive and overwhelming as well. Being extremely sensitive even when they don’t admit this to the world, they will choose partners carefully and need a lot of time to build trust and respect with anyone.
This isn’t a sign that lacks initiative, and since their sex life is of great importance to them, they might find themselves in casual one-night stands and relationships that don’t satisfy their emotional needs. However, this won’t make them happy for long and they won’t settle for this way of life for very long. Once their adventurous and curious nature finds a bit of peace with age, they will learn that without emotion, sexual experience serves no purpose at all.
Friends and Family
Friends – Honesty and a straightforward approach colored with intense emotions make each Scorpio a great friend. They are dedicated, loyal and intelligent, and feel best in the company of witty and fun people who bring love and color into their lives. Their friendships are full of surprises and sudden turns and sometimes end abruptly without explanation. They understand change is the only constant in the Universe and choose to abide by it in friendships as in all relationships.
Family – Scorpio is a sign that brings Moon to its fall and with it always has a task to set free of certain family values and patters pushed onto them at a young age. When they are in pain or suffering, they will turn to closest family for help, feeling their love and support in the darkest of times. Still, they might fail to recognize that love can be given through light, colorful and creative expression, and finds this through the family they create, rather than the one they leave behind.
Career and Money
There is something almost disturbing in the dedication Scorpio has for a goal they set out to achieve, and this makes them fantastic in management and problem-solving that needs a lot of energy and effort put in. They won’t give up under pressure and work well in stressful environments that need a calm and steady hand. The best career choices for Scorpios are science and research of any kind, and they are excellent being detectives, cops, psychologists, and surgeons. Their ultimate respect for other people can make them a bit difficult in teamwork, for they expect the same treatment in return even from people incapable of such approach.
Scorpios are disciplined enough to stick to the budget, but enjoy living their life on the edge. They will work hard for their money and do everything in their power to be independent, but easily get indebted, get loans or mortgages, handling money that isn’t even theirs. Still, in most cases, money gives these individuals a sense of control and power, and they will rarely take risks they aren’t sure will pay off in time.
Scorpio Man: A Lover's Guide
Scorpio men are tedious, confident, intense, sexual and very competitive. They can be highly obsessive, compulsive and jealous, and this is colored by blind dedication and all-giving love every one of us craves for. He needs a practical person to help him stick to his plans while at the same time surrounded by a bubble of mystery, intriguing and quiet enough. He enjoys the game of seduction and needs to feel surprised, guided, and followed to remain interested before he opens up. A Scorpio man needs a challenge and often chooses partners that are already taken or playing hard to get.
They are attracted to confident and flirtatious women, but expect honesty and undivided attention once they decide to settle down. He searches for something more powerful than physical attraction and compatibility, and needs infinite emotions to guide his heart and inspire him. He longs for sexual experiences that go beyond the physical body and pleasure, and when finding a partner ready to bare their Soul, they will hold on to them and never let go.
Scorpio Woman: A Lover's Guide
Scorpio personality is both complex and fascinating, and makes Scorpio women magnetic, sexy and mysteriously calm. She has a great capacity for kindness and a desire to good in the world, but needs someone to truly treasure her by her side and accept the level of control she needs in her love life. The partner she chooses belongs to her and has to be a good listener, willing to embrace shadows she has trouble accepting herself.
Dating a Scorpio woman can be really entertaining, but earning her love requires a lot of time and patience. She isn’t an easy conquest in any way, and however naïve she might be in interpersonal relationship this won’t be the case in the sex life and the choice of partners she shares deep intimacy with. She is possessive but giving and devoted, and needs someone honest to never let her down. Tough on forgiveness, she won’t be the one to give a peace offering, and rarely admits she is wrong simply because she blamed herself senseless long before she ended up in conflict.
