Scorpio Quickfacts
Here’s a fact sheet about your sign.  It gives a lot of
quick answers at a glance.   These little tidbits of
information regarding your sign can help you
understand some of the ways you act and react to
situations.   For those reading about someone else’s
sign, these bullet statements can help with everything
from choosing an appropriate gift to seeing if they’ll

Stones of Power:
Stones of Power differ from the magical birthstone in that the stones of power
help you to accentuate the strengths within yourself.  Using Obsidian, amber,
citrine, garnet or pearl for meditations, amulets, or other jewelry to wear will
help you tap into the energy of your creative force.

Special Color:
With your high ideals and sensuous nature, the colors of passion and sensuality
are the only ones that will do for you.  Crimson, burgundy or maroon, these
colors will help *your* true energy shine brightest.  Coupled with black, these
red tones will ensure you can’t help but look your best!

Flowers:
The flowers associated with this sign are emblematic of the complicated nature
of Scorpio --- the many pedaled chrysanthemum and the beautiful rhododendron
are the flowers associated with this sign.   Both beautiful plants, it is the
complexity of their natures that reveals their true beauty and perfection of
design.

Trees:
The ancient Blackthorn is aligned with the Scorpion.  More readily found bushy
trees are also aligned with this sign.

Animals:
Insects and crustaceans are the animals that Scorpio rules.  Studying these
smaller creatures could help the Scorpio be more in tune with their natural
energies.

Myths and Legends:
Scorpio is associated with many myths which cross a wide range of cultures.  
From the great bird The Phoenix, to the sorrowful tale of Hades and
Persephone, to the great power of Shiva, scorpions can be found there in many
cultures throughout the globe.  

Famous People:
Scorpions may be accused of being a difficult personality, but that’s because
they listen to the counsel of their own cycle of life.  Their capability of
achievement and sacrifice show the traits of Scorpio at its best.  Some
prominent Scorpions are:
Glyph description and meaning:
The stinger of the scorpion (the arrow) is connected to the
soft folding lines which represent the human genitalia.  
Scorpio with its warm feminine energy rules the reproductive
organs.  Ancient symbol for the Phoenix, the bird that dies in
the flames and is reborn in beauty and splendor to rise from
the ashes, the glyph’s symbology is ancient.  The arrow
pointing up indicates an aim to higher conciousness. The
consciousness. The curved lines represent strong emotions with the tail
anchoring a point of practicality for the Scorpio.

Ruling Planet:
Ruled by the long-term Planet Pluto, you are not afraid of long-term projects.  
Pluto was the ancient god of the underworld and things dead.  For Scorpions
Pluto lends regenerative powers and the capability to slip easily through the
various phases of life, sometimes garnering the jealousy of others with your
surety and serenity.

Placement and Symbology of placement in the Zodiac:
Scorpio is the eighth  sign of the Zodiac and rules the area of Mysticism.  
Scorpios are often found as students or practitioners of the mystic arts and the
realms of the world of the wierd and wonderful.  A solid connection with Pluto
affords an easier crossing to the other world in some traditions.

Duality:
Duality in Western Astrology is much like Yin/Yang energy in the Eastern
Tradition.  The idea of opposites evolved in the Pythagorean School of Ancient
Greece.   The duality of the Scorpion is Feminine and receptive.  The idealistic
and sometimes dramatic Scorpio is always open to receive the answers to the
questions to the Universe.

Polarity:
This is the sign that is opposite the Zodiac Wheel from practical Taurus.  The
sign of personal possessions, Taurus may seem a bit of a stick in the mood to
you.  With your highly idealistic nature you don’t really understand the concept
of hording.  It is more important to Scorpio to leave her young well taken care
of than to live in a glass cage with diamonds, rubies and pearls.

Cardinal/Mutable/Fixed:
A Sign is either Cardinal, Mutable or Fixed.   Of course, Scorpio is a fixed
sign.  While you can be imaginative and passionate (not to mention emotional),
your down sides are that obstinacy and an unyielding attitude are easy for you
to slide into.  Make sure your choices are not clouded by emotional thinking.

Dominant Keywords:
I Desire.  The Scorpion desires, but the Scorpion desires knowledge, truth,
enlightenment and beauty.  The Scorpion personality is more likely to leave a
tangible legacy for the benefit of others than many other signs.  Your desire for
having a name that will be remembered is not a bad trait, not when you are
willing to do the work to have it happen!

Most Likeable Trait:
Your idealism is truly your most likeable trait.  You can see the good in just
about everything.  With ideals of the highest order, you inspire many to set
goals for a higher good.  Unfortunately, this also makes you a little unpopular
with those who are seeking grandeur by easy means.

Lucky Day:
Your lucky day is Tuesday!  On Tuesday you can accomplish anything with a
minimum of effort.  On Tuesday you are on top of the world.  Just remember to
spread that feeling out through the rest of the week or you’ll become caged and
unhappy.

Danger:
You know what it is.  It always seems like you have the terrible knack of saying
the wrong thing at the worst possible moment.  Counting to…TWENTY!!
…before speaking may help control the tendency.

Cities and Countries:
The following cities and countries are associated with the sign of Scorpio.  
Liverpool, Washington DC and Newcastle are all spots sure to recharge
Scorpion energy.  For a cultural immersion vacation, try Norway, Morocco or
Tahiti to really get the creative energy going.  

Element:
With all the emotional energy and passive strength, Scorpio is one of the Water
signs, hence it’s association with places of water.  

Metal:
Plutonium – what else.  Of course not something one would want to wear, but
definitely a metal of strength and power.  Those born under the sign of the
Scorpion would do well to study the properties of plutonium.  

Magical Birthstone Stone:
Topaz, pure and simple.  The topaz has long been thought to
either release or accentuate occult powers.  More recently it
has been associated with creating serenity with the inner mind.  
Whether accentuating or creating serenity, topaz is also
thought to protect the wearer from enemies and/or illness.
