Scorpio ! About Your
Self... |
Scorpios are the most intense, profound, powerful
characters in the zodiac. Even when they appear
self-controlled and calm there is a seething intensity of
emotional energy under the placid exterior. They are like the
volcano not far under the surface of a calm sea, it may burst
into eruption at any moment. But those of us who are
particularly perceptive will be aware of the harnessed
aggression, the immense forcefulness, magnetic intensity, and
often strangely hypnotic personality under the tranquil, but
watchful composure of Scorpio. In conventional social
gatherings they are pleasant to be with, thoughtful in
conversation, dignified, and reserved, yet affable and
courteous; they sometimes possess penetrating eyes which make
their shyer companions feel naked and defenseless before
them.
In their everyday behavior they give the
appearance of being withdrawn from the center of activity, yet
those who know them will recognize the watchfulness that is
part of their character. They need great self-discipline,
because they are able to recognize the qualities in themselves
that make them different from other humans, and to know their
utterly conventional natures can be used for great good, or
great evil. Their tenacity and willpower are immense, their
depth of character and passionate conviction overwhelming, yet
they are deeply sensitive and easily moved by their emotions.
Their sensitivity, together with a propensity for extreme
likes and dislikes make them easily hurt, quick to detect
insult or injury to themselves (often when none is intended)
and easily aroused to ferocious anger. This may express itself
in such destructive speech or action that they make lifelong
enemies by their outspokenness, for they find it difficult not
to be overly critical of anything or anyone to whom they take
a dislike.
They can harness their abundant energy
constructively, tempering their self-confidence with
shrewdness and their ambition with magnanimity toward others
provided they like them. They relate to fellow workers only as
leaders and can be blunt to those they dislike to the point of
cruelty. In fact they are not above expressing vindictiveness
in deliberate cruelty. They are too demanding, too unforgiving
of faults in others, perhaps because they are not aware of the
shortcomings within themselves, and extravagantly express
their self-disgust in unreasonable resentment against their
fellows. They do, however, make excellent friends, provided
that their companions do nothing to impugn the honor of which
Scorpios are very jealous. Part of the negative side of the
Scorpio nature is a tendency to discard friends once they
cease to be useful, but the decent native is aware of, and
fights this tendency.
They are fortunate in that their
strong reasoning powers are tempered with imagination and
intuition, and these gifts, together with critical perception
and analytical capacity, can enable the Scorpions to penetrate
to profundities beyond the average. They have a better chance
of becoming geniuses than the natives of any other sign.But
charismatic "twice-born" characters such as they can sink into
the extremes of depravity if they take the wrong path, and the
intensity of their nature exaggerates their harmful tendencies
into vices far greater than the normal. Rebelliousness against
all conventions, political extremism to the point where hatred
of the Establishment makes them utterly unscrupulous
terrorists. Brooding resentment, aggressive and sadistic
brutality, total arrogance, morbid jealousy, extreme
volatility of temperament, these are some of their vices. At
the other extreme is the procrastinator, the man or woman who
is capable of so much that they do nothing and become indolent
and self-indulgent, requiring extravagant praise and flattery
from those whom they make their cronies.
Being so
gifted, they can find fulfillment in many employments. Their
inner intensity can result in the ice-cold self-control and
detachment of the surgeon, the concentration of the research
scientist, and the heroism of the soldier. Any profession in
which analysis, investigation, research, dealing with
practicalities, and the solving of mysteries are relevant, can
appeal to them. So police and detective work, espionage and
counterespionage, the law, physics or psychology may attract
them, and they can become masters of the written and spoken
word. They may be most persuasive orators and find fulfillment
as diplomats or preachers and, if they make the Church their
profession, their inner intensity can express itself in the
spiritual fervor of the mystic or the
thaumaturgy.
Scorpio is the symbol of sex and Scorpios
are passionate lovers, the most sensually energetic of all the
signs. For them, union with the beloved is a sacrament, an
"outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual
grace.". Their overriding urge in loving is to use
their power to penetrate beyond themselves and to lose
themselves sexually in their partners in an almost mystical
ecstasy, thus discovering the meaning of that union which is
greater than individuality, and is a marriage of the spirit as
well as of flesh. They are thus capable of the greatest
heights of passionate transport, but debauchery and perversion
are always dangers, and Scorpios can become sadistic monsters
of sensuality and eroticism. Their feelings are so intense
that even when their love is of the highest, and most
idealistic kind, they are nevertheless frequently protagonists
in tragic, even violent romances, "star-crossed
lovers".

Possible Health
Concerns... |
Scorpio governs the pelvis and reproductive and
urinary systems and its subjects are said to be prone to
ailments of the liver and kidneys, stones and gravel in the
bladder or genitals, and other genital ills such as priapism.
Abscesses, boils, carbuncles, fistulas, piles, ruptures and
ulcers may also affect the Scorpions.

PROBLEMS THAT
MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS |
As with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to
our personalities. When these traits are suppressed, or
unrealized, problems will arise. However, with astrology we
can examine the problem and assess the proper solution based
on the sun sign characteristics. As a Scorpio you may see
things below that really strike home. Try the solution, you
most likely will be amazed at the results. If you find
yourself on the receiving end of the negatives below, it is
because you are failing to express the
positive.
Problem : Suffering from an inferior
complex where you feel self disgust and are disdainful of help
from others.
Solution : You should try to admit that
others, as well as yourself, have weakness and then practice
forgiving those weaknesses until you notice them becoming less
and less. Unbend and accept that you can be helped in your
problems.
Problem : After you get
everyone to agree with you and you get your own way, you are
still not satisfied with the results.
Solution :
Looking deeply within will show you that: having reached the
point where you have nothing more to want for in a given
situation you then realize just what you were really after.
Look within first.
Problem : Disruptive marital
relations or a breakup with a loved one.
Solution :
You should try not to be scornful of what you perceive as
a shortcoming in your partners personality and soften up your
rigid, unbending attitude.
Problem : The peers
in your group begin to avoid you, or drift away when you walk
up.
Solution : If you feel persecuted and put upon
you will express it in conversation, this causes people to be
'turned off' of you so try to change your attitude or, guard
what you say.
