Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Scorpio Personality
Scorpio is the most intense sign of the zodiac, ruled by Pluto and concerned with the deepest truths of existence: power, transformation, death, and rebirth. Scorpios possess an almost supernatural ability to perceive hidden motives and buried secrets — very little escapes their penetrating gaze. They feel emotions at an extraordinary depth, which can bring both profound love and terrible pain. Scorpios do not do anything halfway; they commit absolutely or not at all. This all-or-nothing nature makes them formidable allies and, if wronged, formidable opponents. Trust is everything to Scorpio; once earned, their loyalty is absolute, but betrayal is seldom forgotten. The mythological association with the phoenix captures Scorpio's greatest gift: the ability to die to old versions of themselves and rise transformed, stronger than before.
