I am a Scorpio rising, so I think I can tell you a little bit. As we get older the rising sign takes on a bigger part of the personality. My son is also a Scorpio.
Very sexual for the most part. Stubborn to a fault. No gray area, just black and white. The curiosity to look beyond and into anything that peaks our interest....until it is completely and clearly understood. Passion runs deep....in anything we do. Extremely resourceful. Having no fear of anything can get us into some trouble, I must say. We have an attutude of " I'm going to do it no matter what" and wind up successful at doing it. We would rather be self-destructive than to have someone else do it to us. Can have the sting of the tongue to a great degree. Tough to deal with sometimes and not always a team player. Likes to be alone to think things out. Sometimes starts arguments just to have some excitement. We can be hard to handle sometimes, but if you stick with us, we are faithful and will be by your side when you need us most. And we always have to have the last word. Sound familiar?

Its all talk you can check all the traits for Scorpios, but if you don't know the ascendant you know one third of the story, I honestly think nobody can actually know how a Scorpio completely is because they only let you see what they want you to see, not that they are hypocrites or anything like that, its just that they are very secretive and mysterious its their nature not paranoia, they need their space, they love honesty and loyalty because we are very loyal, cant stand cheating and mind games..we can read people, unfortunately there are not many surprises for us, we can tell how a person is almost right away, everybody knows we are very sensuous and we get a lot of attention unintentionally which creates us a lot of trouble, some of us are victims of stalking, some ppl become easily obsessed with Scorpios, that's why we need our own space just for ourselves ..a lot of what I read doesnt resemble most Scorps I know, I can say one thing I am not jealous at all, I dont have time to be jealous life is way too short I rather be doing something exciting, like riding my CB500 bike...we enjoy walking as close to the edge without falling off..if we detect someone is playing mind games to hell with her/him..that sh*t wont cut it, sorry gotta go climb the Everest
Cheers from a Scorpio being perfectly honest, not an astrology website ..most of it its just crap believe me .. we are all different and there are many different factors that affect peoples personalities regardless their birth signs, ascendants, I can trust a natal chart which even gives you your mid heaven which is very important, and reveals a lot as well..

We Scorpios tend to focus on three main things: sex, death, the occult.
Sex means plain and simple what you think it means. Scorpios are into deep relationships and have a very hard time breaking up without somebody getting stung.
Scorpios are into death in regards to its meaning the end of one thing so that another can begin. Some Scorpios have a very easy time with change and some have a very hard time. Scorpios have no grey areas, it is either black or white with them.
And the occult means in regard to hidden secrets. Scorpios like to learn, to investigate to find answers. They like to gather information for the fun of it and they study a wide spectrum of subjects.
Water is the element of Scorpios. A quote often referred to regarding Scorpios is "Still waters run deep." People who are calm and
tranquil on the outside often have a strong,
"deep" personality. Scorpios are very emotional people, but they tend to keep their emotions deep inside them. When they do show their emotions, they let them out in full force. As said before, Scorpios do things at one end of the spectrum or the other, no in betweens.
Quiet people like Scorpios are often found to have profound insights. The shallow water in a creek or river runs fast and is often turbulent, the deep water runs slow and is calmer.
P.S. The quote comes from Shakespeare's
Henry VI Part 2, Act 3, Scene 1, Line 53
"Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep"

Positive Traits
Scorpio imagination and intuition are excellent. They possess refined critical perception and strong analytical ability. In addition, they seem to demonstrate a natural healing power. These abundant gifts allow Scorpions to penetrate the most profound subjects. They are serious folk, but quite charming to people they like, and when social events call for it. On the positive side, they are hard workers and are willing to help others as long as they are willing to help themselves.
Main positive traits: Motivated, passionate, resourceful, investigative, penetrating, aware.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Negative Traits
Their sensitivity, and pride allow them to be easily hurt, quick to feel insult or injury, even when none is intended, and easily roused to heights of anger. An angry Scorpio is a sight to see. Scorpio seethes, and doesn't give it up. Their tragic flaw is their immense pride. Once wronged, once Scorpio's pride has been diminished, the game of courtesy is over. Many Scorpios possess a suspicious outlook, and need to know the reasons behind everything.
Main negative traits: Intolerant, violent, jealous, resentful, distrusting, secretive, tempermental.

Traditional
Scorpio Traits
Determined and forceful
Emotional and intuitive
Powerful and passionate
Exciting and magnetic
On the dark side....
Jealous and resentful
Compulsive and obsessive
Secretive and obstinate
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.

Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
Scorpio is the eighth Sign of the Zodiac, and you shouldn't take that lightly. You shouldn't take Scorpios lightly, either. Those born under this Sign are dead serious in their mission to learn about others. There's no fluff or chatter for Scorpios, either: these folks will zero in on the essential questions, gleaning the secrets that lie within. Scorpios concern themselves with beginnings and endings, and are unafraid of either; they also travel in a world which is black and white and has little use for gray. The curiosity of Scorpios is immeasurable, which may be why they are such adept investigators. These folks love to probe and know how to get to the bottom of things. The fact that they have a keen sense of intuition certainly helps.
It's the Scorpion which symbolizes Scorpios, and it's no accident. Much like the Scorpion would rather kill itself than be killed, those born under this Sign are the ones who are in ultimate control of their destiny. It is life on the Scorpion's terms, too, since these folks promote their agenda (they are quite the executives) and see to it that things go forward. Others may find this overbearing (it can be) and even self-destructive, but that's the beauty of the Scorpion: these folks have tremendous regenerative powers, much like the literal Scorpion can lose its tail and promptly grow a new one. Fearless Scorpions rarely lose, per se, they just keep on going, since they are stubborn and determined to succeed (this Scorpio trait is in keeping with the Fixed Quality assigned to this Sign). Scorpios work as hard as they do so they can someday sit back and feel satisfied with themselves. These folks are intense, passionate and filled with desire. They're also complex and secretive, so don't expect to get much out of them, lest they become suspicious and exit stage left. It's best not to bet against Scorpios, either, since these folks are surprisingly resourceful.
Scorpio is ruled by the Planets Mars and Pluto. Mars was the God of War in ancient Roman mythology and is the first (and most ancient) ruler of Scorpio. When Pluto was discovered in the 20th century, it was also assigned to this Sign. Pluto was known as the God of the Underworld in ancient Roman times, so when coupled with Mars, expect some intense energy to head toward Scorpions here on Earth. This planetary combo makes for people who are motivated, penetrating and aware. Scorpions don't miss much, since they are highly attuned to the vibrations of others. They are intuitive, probing and very focused on knowing who's who and what's what. Scorpions can lose their temper (and even become vengeful) when someone gets in their way, so it's best to give them plenty of room. Remember, they're unafraid, and a loss today simply means an opportunity for victory tomorrow.
The Element associated with Scorpio is Water. As opposed to the 'roiling seas' seen in other Water Signs, a better motto for Scorpions would be 'still waters run deep.' Those born under this Sign are as emotional as their waterborne brethren, it's just that they're not as likely to show it. The Scorpio's emotions are repressed, kept under cover. Again, secrets to be used another day. That said, be aware that these folks are clever, perceptive and always in the mix. Their ability to see into things can sometimes be a curse for Scorpions, however, since they can take an insignificant matter and turn it into a huge slight. Beware the Scorpion who feels crossed! These folks can turn vindictive in no time flat. Luckily, once Scorpions catch their breath, they will return to their usual determined and loyal (albeit strong-willed) ways. Finally, while Scorpions aren't above some subtle manipulation to get what they want, they'd much rather take a scientific, even mystical path. The Scorpio-born are powerful and passionate, qualities which serve them well, as long as they don't let them deteriorate into self-indulgence or compulsion.
Scorpios love competition in both work and play, which is why they'll air it out in sports and games. Extreme sports are right up the Scorpion's alley, as is most anything which will test their mettle. They've got to have an adversary, since it makes the game that much more fun. The Scorpion's colors? Powerful red and serious black. When it comes to love, though, Scorpions soften up a bit and are caring and devoted with their lovers, even if they do hold on a bit tight. Scorpions are also lusty in the extreme (how else?), so they need to be mindful of their reproductive organs.
The great strength of the Scorpio-born is in their determination, passion and motivation. Scorpions don't know the word quit, which is why they usually get the job done. A powerhouse? Like no other.

I'm a Scorpion as well. I'd like to think that Scorpions are the best in the zodiac list and they are at times, misunderstood.
