Scorpio

Sign of the Eagle

Scorpio is, of course, the sign of the Scorpion but it is also, by an equally long tradition, the sign of the Eagle. I deliberately asked our artist to depict you with this noble and worthy bird because, I feel, it is high time that the silly myths and slanders too long associated with your sign were finally laid to rest.

What makes a Scorpio tick?
Of all signs of the zodiac, Scorpio gets the worst publicity. In truth, Scorpios are neither sex-mad, vicious or vengeful. They are deeply sensitive souls who are too perceptive for their own good. Most folk are prepared to live in a world that's fuzzy round the edges. Scorpios need things to be clear cut. They must know where they stand and who they stand there with. The sting in the Scorpions tail is only used in self defence. Their real weapon is a frank, piercing sense of humour. In our mixed up world, it's often the only way they can communicate. The Scorpio heart is a live volcano. When it erupts, few can withstand its force..Their ruling planet is Pluto, although before 1931 (when Pluto was discovered) Scorpio was considered to be ruled by Mars.
