Scorpion in body of water with fire for stinger.
 
October 23 - November 21 
“Symbolized by the scorpion, the water sign can pack a punch with its personality. As a result, Scorpio has garnered a reputation for being one of the Zodiac’s more polarizing signs. Scorpios love change and constantly seek to transform their lives. This is fitting given the sign’s archetype of the shaman. They have to go through this intense training and this intense introspection, inner transformation and inner discovery. Scorpios are also known for their magnetism. They have a certain charisma that attracts others. Scorpios are goal-oriented and driven. The sign has a talent for strategy thanks to its high intensity and occasional ruthlessness. They are not afraid to discuss trauma, welcoming communication to connect with others on a deeper level. Scorpios possess great sexual energy. While this can lead to a healthy sex life, it can also prompt infidelity if a Scorpio’s needs are not being met. Scorpios do like to be in committed relationships though. Since they are a water sign, they are fairly emotional and strive for connection. But they can be skeptical of others at first. Scorpios often attract trauma and intense life experiences, so they are protective of their inner self. Because of their intuitive nature, Scorpios can be selective with whom they spend time. They don’t have time for BS. They prefer solitude instead of wasting their time with people that are just going to be surface level. They’re hard-working, committed and resilient. Scorpios aren’t people-pleasers, so they don’t partake in small talk. Their intensity can also be overpowering if they don’t have a handle on it. Whenever a Scorpio wants something, they’ll get it. Sometimes if they’re in their shadow side, they can be ruthless. While change can be good, Scorpio’s constant quest for reinvention can lead to inconsistency. A Scorpio’s sex drive can also lead to their downfall since a need for physical can give way to dependency and obsession.”
