Scorpio is a water sign ruled by Pluto, the planet of psychology. Intense, creative and driven, you possess a great deal of physical magnetism and are filled with transformative ideas and complicated feelings. Scorpios always seek to get to the bottom of things. Sometimes your high energy level proves difficult to control, causing the more negative Scorpio traits of jealousy and obsession to emerge. Try not to let this happen, however, as there are so many positive ways for you to use your vast reserves of power! The main obstacle to your fulfillment is that people often misunderstand you, causing you to doubt yourself and feel ambivalent about others. The root of your distress is that you often don't completely understand yourself, and therefore have difficulty expressing your true nature. Your ruling planet, Pluto, can be unfathomable at times, putting more on your plate than you feel comfortable with, but Pluto also provides you with virtually limitless possibilities.
Scorpios need regular outlets for their energy; therefore, keeping busy is a high priority. Remember that your body, as well as your mind, needs constant movement to prevent stagnation. Functioning well under stress, you do very well in today's fast-paced working world, but being emotionally involved with how you earn your living is crucial to you.
Mesmerized by the hidden aspects of life, Scorpios make excellent surgeons, researchers, scientists and psychologists. Your remarkable way with money, including a knack for picking stocks as well as unusual methods for handling debt, makes you gifted in the wheeling and dealing of big business. Persistence can take you to an admirable position within your career, but beware of misusing your power along the way, as you may make hidden enemies who will take great pleasure in toppling you!
You are definitely interested in establishing permanent relationships. Because you find it difficult to become emotionally intimate, you usually have just a few close friends, but they remain friends for life. On the romantic side of things, it is essential that you find a partner who is emotionally responsive to all of your needs, not someone who appeals only to your sensual side. Scorpios have a tendency to become addicted to remote lovers because they aren't sure how to channel their passionate nature. If you don't know yourself very well, romantic upheavals can run your life, wracking you with jealousy and uncomfortable thoughts. Although stormy by nature, Scorpios are not happy when obsessively involved, even if they think they are. You function best when your romantic interest is a reliable, faithful sort, not too boring... and as cute as hell!
When you find someone who accepts and finds your complex nature fascinating, you will be free to channel your energy towards your lifework of improving your soul and thereby making positive changes in the world.
