Scorpio – The Scorpion:

Scorpio, also known as the scorpion, is the eighth sign of the zodiac. Just because Scorpios have a birthday at the end of the year, this doesn’t mean they should be taken lightly. These are serious people who take a systematic approach to most aspects of their life.

Scorpio is an independent person who wants to take control of all situations, especially anything to do with their life. This sign is full of people that have initiative to chase down their dreams, at any cost.

Scorpios are known to be cut throat in most areas of their life, and this is especially true in their careers. These scorpions have a serious sting if you cross them the wrong way.

This is why so many Scorpio people are in leadership positions, in fact they are perfect for any vocation that impacts the world.

This is why you find so many Scorpio Lawyers, Doctors, and other positions of leadership. Although Scorpio is typically successful at anything they do, they aren’t the best when it comes to following directions, and can sometimes take situations to the extreme. However, when Scorpio sets their mind to something there is no doubt that they have the dedication to succeed.

Scorpios are ambitious people with a soft side, and usually get a bad rap like their scorpions counterparts. Scorpio does have a bit of an edge to their personality, but like a scorpion they have a soft underbelly that they reveal to those they trust.

This is a sign ruled by water, so their moods are ever-changing and although they may appear calm on the surface, there is always something going on underneath.

In other words, this sign can keep a cooler face than those born under the other water signs.   Although most view a Scorpio as someone unwavering in their goals, few recognize the softer side of this misunderstood sign.

Even though Scorpio can be head strong and lose their temper, they are intuitive and one of the most loyal friends that you can have.

Scorpio is interesting in their relationships, and they tend to lead exciting lives. This isn’t someone who likes the easy road, and as such most personal connections Scorpios make are to the extreme. They are loyal to a fault, but this can cause them to become jealous and to very easily feel scorned.

However, Scorpio is a tough sign, and will never show how hurt they are. Instead, they become manipulative, and follow the eye for an eye factor. Scorpios are a good sign to have on your side, but in the event that you do them wrong, you can expect them to return the favor.

Scorpios are intense people who always have more going on than one imagines. This can be exciting and scary for people interested in getting to know these scorpions. Appealing to their intellect is one of the best ways to get Scorpio on your side. This is someone who treats others with respect, but generally are the alphas in any social group.

No matter what the situation, a Scorpio will cut through the drama and remain a true and loyal friend to anyone they feel deserves their dedication.
