Scorpio: The Scorpion

Scorpio Overview

Scorpio, the eighth sign of the zodiac, is perhaps the most misunderstood sign. Symbolized by the Scorpion and ruled by Pluto (planet of transformation) and Mars (planet of action), Scorpio embodies intensity, depth, and the power of regeneration.

Like the phoenix, Scorpio has the ability to rise from the ashes of destruction renewed and stronger.
