Scorpio Zodiac Sign Personality and Traits

Scorpio (October24th – November 22nd)
The calm, tranquil, self–centered one is a Scorpion, but as it is said ’half knowledge is dangerous’, a complete staement about a Scorpion is that he is calm, tranquil, self–centered, but deep underneathhim runs an intense, aggressive current, just like the volcano lies deep under the sea bed. Scorpions are often accused of causing unnecessary trouble and riots. Even though there might be some truth in this, they have a very strong sense of smell and an ability of smelling bad, decayed, destructive, hidden things (referring to emotional pollution). They make sure to bring it up to the surface and get rid of it and cleanse and purify the whole system!

To understand that they are different from the rest, Scorpions need to practice a great deal of self-discipline. They are too demanding and too unforgiving, because perhaps they are unaware of their own short comings.
Their conventional nature can be used for great good or great evil. Scorpions possess an abundance of energy. They can be good friends and great companions, unless you don’t point a finger to their honor. Scorpions never forget a deed of kindness or word of insult!

A negative element that is part of a Scorpion’s personality is the tendency to discard friends once they cease to be useful, but this is a tendency they themselves fight against. They have the power, or one can say, a gift of supreme reasoning, intuition, and a great perspective. Hence, from amongst all other sun signs, Scorpions have the best chance of being geniuses.

A Scorpion is fiercely possessive of what he believes belongs to him, but his ambitions are never too obvious. They are the most sensually energetic of all the signs.

The key planet of Scorpio is Pluto. Its color is deep red and the element is water. The stones associated with Scorpio are opal and red coral. It rules the eighth house of the horoscope and its corresponding tarot card is Death.
