Scorpio Characteristics

Confident endeavors and a courageous nature drive this sign. This power of Scorpio must be steered by self-control and conviction and readied for action when needed.

Mars, which controls this sign, delivers the authority prevalent in this sign, and provides the determination to overcome all barriers.

When at ease, Scorpio people are unobtrusive, cautious and private in conduct, yet exceedingly sharp-eyed and vigilant. Once provoked to action, however, they change entirely, becoming single-minded, uncompromising and assertive.

They are always ready to champion a cause. When working for the benefit of others, they soar to grand heights and are much esteemed, but Scorpio people, always well contented with themselves, can develop overbearing and egotistical characteristics.

When striving for improvements, they show scant regard toward those who contradict them and it is not unusual for a Scorpio to stretch a point and vindicate their activities irrespective of honest opposition.

Scorpio people are straight-talking, confrontational and instinctive fighters but their level-headedness under pressure fools their opposition and adds to the Scorpio supremacy.
