Scorpio Traits

Scorpio traits include an intense and passionate view of life and fierce desire to succeed at any cost. Scorpio people are very focused and powerful individuals. Life is serious business to them. Once they feel deeply involved and fascinated by their lives they will know that they have found their true path in life.

Scorpio is ruled by the planet Pluto. Scorpio is a Fixed Water Sign which means among other things that they are very intense. In fact, I would dare say that, they are the most intense zodiac sign.

They also have the most incredible B.S. detector imaginable! It's nearly impossible for them to be deceived because they are blessed with a sort of x-ray vision that enables them to see the truth.

They are very gifted at research and they love the thrill of discovering hidden things. In fact, their amazing intuition and ability to see through to the truth of a situation are Scorpio traits that make them the natural detectives and/or researchers of the zodiac! Other great fits for them are careers in the military, criminal justice, scientists, artists, counselors, and spiritual advisors.

They are very serious and powerful individuals.

Life is serious and intense to them. If they don't feel passionately involved in their lives then they're not on their correct path in life. They need to feel deeply involved and fascinated by their lives or else they will become brooding and bored.

They never do anything halfway; it's either all or nothing for them. Therefore, it's important that they take the time to figure out what it is in their lives that really gets them spellbound and then go in that direction.

The dark side of scorpio traits is that they do not forget any harm that has been done to them. Their memories are amazing in that way. Unfortunately, they tend to remember the bad things more than the good. Many of them harbor revenge fantasies toward those who have hurt them and some actually attempt revenge. Revenge, however, is never as sweet as they imagined it would be. It's sort of like the old saying that, "two wrongs don't make a right".

Nothing could be more important for them to remember. This is because they are here to learn how to forgive despite being hurt and taken advantage of. Their revenge fantasies are fueled by their tendency to feel their emotions so deeply and powerfully.

The positive side of Scorpios is that once they learn to forgive, they transform from the scorpion to the eagle.

Transformation is at the heart of what this zodiac sign is all about. They transform garbage into something useful. The garbage is either on the physical plane or the spiritual plane. Once they learn to forgive all wounds, though, their lives will slowly transform into a higher spiritual awareness.

Since they have such great memories, it needs to be mentioned that they also never forget acts of kindness that they have received. They always make a point to show their gratitude in some way with hopes of actually returning the favor.

Scorpios have an intense need for power. This is because it helps them to feel in control, but they are in danger of alienating those around them. When their urge for power gets out of control for them, people will start to consider them to be control freaks.

They need to always ensure that they use the power that they gain in life wisely and lovingly. Pluto is such a planet of extremes that their power issue can be used in a profound way for good or bad.

Their intense emotions and die-hard loyalty are the top Scorpio traits that incline them to crave an all consuming passionate love. Once they have found their one true love, they are faithful and loyal to their very last breath. They will stand by their loved one's side through the most difficult of times and can be an amazing source of strength and love.

Scorpio is a highly sexual zodiac sign and their respective partner will need a high libido to keep up! Sexuality for Scorpios is not a casual affair. For them, sex becomes a bridge to a higher consciousness. It is deeply spiritual to them and is transforming for them and their partner.
