Answer 1

October 21 – November 21
The Scorpion



Scorpio, symbolized by the Scorpion, is a Fixed Water sign. Ruled by Mars (and Pluto), Scorpio is intense, strong-willed, passionate and filled with desire. They are deep, penetrating, complex, mysterious, secretive – “still waters run deep” (Fixed Water). Scorpios love to probe beneath the surface and uncover what is hidden. They are clever, perceptive and almost psychic in their intuitiveness. They are just as emotional as the other Water signs, but their emotions are more repressed – kept under cover, hidden. Consistent with their Fixed energy, Scorpios are stubborn and determined. They can be ruthless if hurt and don’t easily forgive.

Answer 2

SCORPIO

"Scorpio is the eighth sign of the zodiac, being a fixed water or icy sign. In appearance you will be found to be well proportioned, strong in body, muscular, with a broad face and majestic, commanding look. You are a Scorpio and therefore ruled by the enigmatic planet Pluto and also fiery and aggressive Mars. So why are you referred to as icy? Scorpio is probably the most misunderstood sign and has unfortunately received a very bad reputation over the years. This iciness is only the surface of your deep and complex nature. Below this surface of your cool exterior, you're true scorching nature blazes! You’re passionate and express that passion in everything you do.

In a crowded room your aura stands out—not because of anything you may say or do. But being the strong quiet type, you possess a deafening silence that makes it near impossible for others to ignore you. As a Scorpio you’re controlled and know full well that this magnetism can manipulate anyone and everyone who comes within your orb. And you love it! This secretive and enigmatic energy of yours is probably your greatest strength. You are also very loyal and trustworthy and can honour and maintain the secrets entrusted to you.

Determination is another of your key words yet; by the same token, you appear aloof and thoroughly insensitive to others’ needs as you push forward to achieve your goals, almost obsessively. You have no fear of obstacles or challenges that come your way either naturally or placed there by foes and competitors. In fact, you thrive on it. There’s a saying, “A teabag tastes better in hot water” and this applies perfectly to your Scorpio philosophy. Corner you or put you in a difficult situation and watch that Plutonic flavour brew as your competitive nature comes to the fore! If someone decides to challenge you, they’d better be sure they’re ready to give it their best fight because you won’t give in until the job is done and your enemy totally crushed—in body, mind and spirit! If that ruthless act can’t be executed immediately, you will wait. Time is of no consequence to you when you decide to wreak your vengeance on an unlucky recipient.

Whether trying to fulfil your more sensual appetite or the more noble spiritual aspirations within, all pleasure becomes your Scorpio domain. You want it all. You are a born investigator and explorer and need to experience the full spectrum of sensations in your life. This attitude encompasses the fearlessness of Scorpio at every level of your being. But it’s a well-known fact: never double-cross a Scorpio. You will not rest until you have executed your revenge! You’ll shut out forever those who dishonour you by betraying your trust."

Answer 3

Well i am going to base this on my uncle since he is a scorpio. Anyway he is very determined, energetic, fun to be around, sweet, very honest, has the worlds best sense of humor, very stubborn, and very emotional as well. However, i know that when he is pissed everyone goes into hiding lol. I mean i noticed they gave you this bone chilling stare that sends chills down your spine. I hate that lol. Most of my friends in the past were scorpios i got along better with scorpios than cancers. I guess because scorpios are very honest and upfront. But I love my uncle to death!!!!!!!! He is such a sweetie.

Answer 4

I am Scorpion myself, but I am a girl -- I don't think it too much difference on the traits. Well Scorpions are straight forward people and doesn't like false modesty, even if they do like solving mysteries. Even though Scorpions are perspective and can easily tell what a person is feeling, they tend to like to have solid evidence before pointing any fingers. Scorpions might be straight forward and seem to not care about much, they are actually very sensitive and insecure -- they are just good at hiding it. Scorpions are also very passionate people, and once they start a relationship they would prefer to stay in it. The fact that you don't tell him your feelings would most likely make him feel unsure and insecure. And Scorpions doesn't like to be in an unsure relationship. The reason he might be playing dumb is that he probably wants to be sure of your exactly feelings and reasons as to why you are giving him the cold shoulder. Scorpions are also jealous creatures, and they like to be in control. So, him seeing you with somebody else would have maked him angry, but this doesn't mean he would stop liking you. He would just be jealous and probably slight unbearable for sometime. I think that best thing for you to do is just to tell him your feelings straight out, so that he would understand. And you should try to open up to him a bit more and tell him how you feel. Scorpions like to be in control and they like to know what the people around them are thinking. Hope this helps^^

Scorpios Chapters in life. One area ends only to start again anew.



Greek Myth.

Perseus and Medusa.

Medusa was once a beautiful lady who slept with Poseidon in Athena's temple. This angered the Goddess Athena, and she turned Medusa into a snake woman whose hair was full of poisonous snakes and whose eyes were terrifying, her gaze froze any one who looked into her eyes.

Perseus was from a Nobel birth, his father was Zeus, and was given the task of slaying Medusa, this was needed in order to stop the forced marriage of his mother to King Polydectes.

Perseus then made his way to the three magical but withered old women, they were seers and were able to see all that was going on every where, they also told him the way to Medusas lair.

Perseus was helped through his ordeal by several deities, the goddess Athena told him not to look directly into medusa eyes, and gave him a magical shield. Hermes also helped by giving him a sickle to cut off Medusa head, also some winged sandals and a magic wallet to use for her decapitated head. A dark helmet was given by Hades the god of the underworld to make him invisible.

Perseus was successful and Medusa's decapitated head was thrown into the sea where a beautiful white winged horse emerged fully-grown from Medusa body setting her free. This was created from the union with Poseidon.

The Scorpio myth Is portrayed to begin with the two women; Medusa is expelled from the land of the living because of the Goddess Athena jealous anger, and transformed into something really hideous. The personal mother was given freedom. In this way the darkness is confronted for the light. This is often a terrifying experience the essence of both these qualities is inherent in those born under the sign of Scorpio. The shield which mirror's the reflection of Medusa is the need for one to look within to reflect symbolically and to grasp their situation. The magical helmet given to Perseus by Hades symbolizes the magic that they have within them once a transformation has taken place. Hades represents depression and negativity and sometime hatred for living, knowing full well that there is hope else where in the universe. Pegasus Who is born once Medusas is killed is the majestic freedom that is found once Medusa is thrown into the sea only to be reborn.

The Mythical tale of Scorpio is the ability to look deep into their unconscious drives, to except all of their being. To move on relentlessly to achieve almost the impossible just as Perseus did.

In addition the best matches for Scorpio are water signs, like Pisces and Cancer. A lot of people have negative feedback regarding Scorpio, only because they are not suited for that person. In my experience, as a Cancerian, Scorpions seem to be passionate, sexual, mysterious, and very amazing individuals.
