The Mysterious Scorpio

The deep scorpion is generally misunderstood by most people. The force inside them tends to burn with a fierce intensity that other people cannot understand. Scorpios have an innate ability to see from all angles; a Scorpio can see all that they are and all that they can be, which is one of the reasons they have such an impressive forceful work drive. They can also see other people; they know if the other person is telling the truth or not, they also know if you can cause them harm or not.

Scorpios have a very intense gaze which has an almost hypnotic aura about it and most people feel strangely uncomfortable with a vigilant Scorpio watching them. With their acute powers of observation, they can easily put pieces together and know exactly what’s going on. If a twist arises in a certain circumstance that no one saw coming, you can bet Scorpio did; he already pieced together what he can do about it while other people are just realizing what happened. Because he can see so much, Scorpio is also known to be quite secretive because he knows the damage of the wrong information in the wrong hands – especially his personal information.

Speaking of what he can do, Scorpios have an incredible work ethic. If they set their mind to something, nothing can stand in their way, and the more they fail at it, the more they are determined to succeed. If they set their mind on a particular project, they will work at it continuously for months even, stopping only for bathroom breaks and minimal sleep. If the Scorpio sign is in your natal chart, you too may end up having their powerful work ethic.

The blazing audacity inside them is hidden extraordinary well; the surface of the Scorpio is almost always calm, cool and collected. But beneath this hard exterior, overwhelming emotions often take place. Scorpio is a sign of extremes; loves and hates, and there is usually a war of some sort going on inside his soul. In a way, he enjoys the emotional torture inside him because it gives him a sense of being alive. Other sign’s emotional pain would feel like a light buzz for the powerful Scorpio.

Scorpio is also filled with unimaginable pride. Never tell a Scorpio he can’t do something or you may end up getting burned – badly. Just like a scorpion inside a ring of fire would rather sting itself and die then be burned by something he cannot control, Scorpios too would rather be in emotional agony than allow someone else to hurt them. This is why the outside of the Scorpio is so hard and impenetrable; they are actually very vulnerable inside and are aware that the pain inflicted by others could be detrimental to the extreme but sensitive Scorpio. But for those who Scorpio attaches itself to, nothing can come between them. He is willing to fight at the drop of a hat for the other person and protect with all that he’s worth.

As an extreme sign, Scorpio’s instincts are very primal and animalistic. Scorpio has a tendency to become overprotective, extremely jealous, fight at any instant etc. If he doesn’t know how to deal with the burning intensity of his emotions well, there is a very good chance Scorpio can end up with serious rage issues, drug, alcohol and sex addictions, terrorism, serious gambling issues violent relationships etc. Once a Scorpio becomes obsessed with something, very little can stop it and that includes the bad as well as the good. The Scorpios’ powerful nature is exaggerated into harmful tendencies when upset and into genius when put to good use. This why when a Scorpio opens up and talks about problems or issues (again usually with an incredible calm), other signs say they have a tendency to exaggerate, but this is not the case; everything in the Scorpio life is an extreme exaggeration and they are just saying it as it is.

When it comes to relationships, no other sign can match the fierce, passionate love a Scorpio has for its mate. Willing to die rather than lose the one they decide on, the sheer intensity of the bond they create can be too much for most signs to handle. Libra and Gemini in particular would feel far too suffocated. The best sign to match with the Scorpio is the gentle loving, yet stable Cancer; Cancer trusts very few, but its trust will be freely given to the scorpion due to its natural dignity and integrity, and Scorpio, who is suspicious of everyone, lets Cancer inside due to his honest and devoted nature. Cancer acts as the rock for impulsive Scorpio, and Scorpio wraps Cancer in a protective and secure cocoon that will last ages.
