Your sign...

Female: The Scorpio woman hardly ever compromises and tends to do whatever she wants. She is relentless when pursuing her goals, or as a person. She will study others "from the shadows" to anticipate their moves and outcomes. As a keen observer, she detects the strengths and weaknesses of situations and people to gain her advantage. Scorpio women have iron wills and infinite determination, which is why they overwhelm most people in intimate relationships. For her, there is never too much of a challenge. She also loves extreme competition and trials. Coal becomes diamonds under pressure, and she becomes more powerful under pressure. The Scorpio woman is a mystery, and the archetype for the femme fatale (emphasis on feminine and fatal). Among the greatest qualities of the Scorpio woman are her tenacity and the fact that she never gives up. She also has a very special way of seeing things; and, as such, she can see what others do not see. This is a very popular quality in many professional fields. Scorpio women are formidable.

Male: The Scorpio man excels in many areas, but not diplomacy. Just like Aries, his legendary outspokenness stings. He does not suffer fools lightly; usually willing to crush them beneath the heel of his boot! He does not beat around the bush when he has something to say. Unlike Leo man, he does not like to stand in the spotlight; he prefers to work behind the scenes, wielding hidden power to his best advantage. If he is forced out of cover, he does not hesitate to show his stinger to protect himself. He is the definition of intensity and passion if he chooses to reveal himself. The Scorpio man likes to stand back in order to better observe other people. He is a fine strategist who has the ability to anticipate the next actions of people around him. It is a quality that does not go unnoticed by employers. This is also the reason why Scorpio men have successful careers.

As a child: Scorpio children are intense, and often very private. They can keep to themselves and be very keen observers. They can spot a lie better than any other sign and are not beyond manipulation as a way to test the power and authority of their parents. Any time they transgress or need correcting, it should be done decisively and thoroughly. These children do not like weakness, wishy-washiness, or leniency; pressure a whetting wheel sharpens knives. The best rule of thumb in teaching these children is to let them try and fail until they figure it out or they ask for help. If the parent intervenes before the child is ready for help, it will not go well for anyone. As a fixed sign, they can be very determined, so it helps to make sure they have high expectations and plenty to do; otherwise, trouble could be afoot.

As a parent: The Scorpio parent will have the second highest expectations of his or her child, just behind Capricorn. They are here to teach their children power dynamics, how to identify power in the world, how to wield it, and how to deal with it. Punishments can be severe, to leave a lasting impression, or get as close to real-world consequences that are hard to come back from when you are out of the safety of the home. Scorpios can be generous parents so long as the child shows proper respect and works hard.

In friendship: Scorpio people make intense friends; one may be all you need or can handle. These individuals make the perfect confidants; they will take your secrets to the grave, into the afterlife, and reincarnate with those secrets still unshared. A Scorpio friend will be with you in your darkest hours, through your most difficult experiences, and have your back in any struggle. You just need to share your soul with them to get all their benefits. Friendships do not come easily, but they will last. Scorpios are extremely loyal, but also demanding friends. They will not pull any punches if they feel like you need "straightening out" or "the brutal truth". And do not be surprised if your friendship with them is tinged with sexual energy; they represent the femme fatal and the rakish man.

At work: Scorpio makes some of the best change agents and transformers when it comes to evolving a business or organisation. Their sign is known as the "whistleblower", which often makes them perfect for the tasks that require a company to evolve or die. If you need to regenerate your business or organisation, then invite a Scorpio in to assess the status of your company and give them the power to make any necessary changes. They love to uncover problems, break through stagnation, and upheave complacency. In fact, these are the people you want to hire or call upon when there are hard choices to make and inevitable changes to address. Scorpios make the perfect eliminators, process "improvers", and disruptors; when situations re-balance or stabilize, it is time for them to move to the next place in need of transformation. While it is part of traditional astrology to suggest some jobs are Scorpio jobs and other jobs belong to other signs, that concept is outdated. Essentially any sign can do any job, whether the person is a hairdresser, surgeon, stay-at-home parent, fighter pilot, and on and on. Ideally, the person doing the job needs to be able to do the work in alignment with his or her sign. Scorpio prefers to be transforming, regenerating, and eliminating when it comes to work and career.

In love: Scorpio loves to be intense and fearless in love. They should all have a t-shirt in their closet or drawer that says, "brace for impact". This sign likes to go in deep, really penetrate in an intimate relationship. And, as the sign that rules sexuality, they bring their intensity and fearlessness to the bedroom. What makes them so powerful is their willingness and strength to go into the darkest corners of love and lust and enjoy themselves. It is in their nature to transform themselves and anyone who gets intimately involved with them.
