Scorpio
The Scorpian: scorpius in Latin, is probably the most mysterious water sign and is ruled by Mars. Scorpians possess profundity and unique intuition. Outwardly cool and correct, they are also passionate and are not put off by abysses. Mars gives them self-confidence and energy, which the intelligent Scorpian puts to very good use. They are slow to lose their self-control and realise their ideas and views in all areas of life with perseverance and distinctive rhetoric means. There are few who can fool a Scorpian, for they very quickly see through their opponents– it seems as if they can look into their soul. Even if it appears that they are invulnerable they are hypersensitive to criticism, which they do not tolerate at all; beware here of the well-known sting in the tail, which they can then extend in your direction. They are also not free of jealousy and the tendency to want to boss others about.
Those who are not put off by the Scorpian’s wish for dominance can have an interesting and very passionate relationship with this water sign. It is less strenuous professionally, for Scorpians love correctness – at work and with payment.
Letting go is their big problem, especially in the area of health. The excretory organs such as the bladder and the intestine show them again and again how important letting go and thus cleansing for body and soul is. If Scorpians don’t just swallow or repress emotional injuries they have an enormous capacity for regeneration.
The Scorpians’s stone is the ruby, for it brings tension and dynamism. It makes Scorpians mentally alert, capable of acting and courageous. And it is regarded as the sun stone in all European cultures. Iron is regarded as being just as fiery, which is used especially as protection against negativity and also for earthing.
