Scorpio Zodiac Sign Traits
Passionate, independent, and unafraid to blaze their own trail no matter what
others think, Scorpio signs make a statement wherever they go. They love
debates, aren't afraid of controversy, and won't back down from a debate.
They also hate people who aren't genuine, and are all about being
authentic—even if authentic isn't pretty.
Because of all of these traits, a Scorpio can seem intimidating and somewhat
closed off to those who don't know them well. But what people don't realize
is that even though Scorpio may seem brusque, as a water sign, they also are
very in tune with their emotions, and sometimes may find themselves caught
up in their feelings.
What Are Scorpios Like As Friends?
A Scorpio friend will tell you like it is, whether you want to know or
not. The good news: You never have to worry about where you stand with a
Scorpio; they will let you know. But you will have to realize that a
Scorpio won't BS you or lie to you—and they will absolutely let you know
when you haven't lived up to your potential. A Scorpio can be a friend
for life, and can make you laugh harder, think deeper, and have more fun
than you ever thought possible. So don't be so sensitive and go along
for the ride.
Scorpio in Love
Ruled by fiery Mars and destructive Pluto, a Scorpio in love has one mode for
relationships—and that's full-on. Scorpio loves romance and passion,
including up-all-night fights. Scorpio never does anything halfway, and
believes that true love comes with true fights.
Flirtatious, seductive, and mysterious, Scorpio loves playing hard to get
initially, and may look like they never take the lead. This isn't true,
though. Scorpio can pull the strings, relying on body language and
subconscious cues to make their potential partner do exactly what they want
them to do. Scorpio loves the chase, and loves the drama and pageantry that
comes with initial dates. They love going all out with outfits,
reservations, and candles and truly want to be the best date you've ever
had.
For the Scorpio in Your Life
Best gifts: A beautiful scarf, a candle, or some essential oils. Scorpios
love accessories that elevate all of their senses.
Best spa package: Reiki. Sure, it's not exactly a spa treatment, but
Scorpio, with their genuine interest in the metaphysical love that a
treatment doesn't require touch to be effective, and love the way reiki
allows them to tune into themselves while getting attuned.
Best Cocktail: Malbec, or any other rich, deep, red wine. Scorpio can't
resist a deep red wine, preferably sipped with a lover.
The Best Fitness Routines for Scorpio
Boxing. Whether it's getting in the ring or just taking classes, you thrive on breaking a sweat and, bonus, can simultaneously get rid of frustrations that are plaguing you.
Scorpio's Spiritual Side
Scorpio is intense, passionate, and will never do ritual just for ritual sake. A Scorpio has to truly believe in something to commit to it, and when they do, they commit 100%. Many Scorpio find themselves as spiritual leaders, as other people admire their commitment to dogma. Scorpio believes that religion and spirituality can be passionate and intense, and wants to "feel" their spirituality. For Scorpio, spirituality is a full-body experience, and often, Scorpio finds spiritual intensity through intense physical exercise or a physical experience. Scorpio believes in breaking boundaries and will often pick and choose from different spiritual and religious teachings to find the one that's most meaningful to them.
