It's Scorpio Season B*tch!...Shadow and Light (Page 4)

Scorp Sun+Bull Mars







You can go the distance, you can run the mile

You can walk straight through hell with a smile

You can be a hero, you can get the gold

Breakin' all the records they thought never could be broke

Do it for your people, do it for your pride

How you ever gonna know if you never even try?

Do it for your country, do it for your name

'Cause there's gon' be a day, when you're

Standin' in the Hall of Fame

Scorp Sun+Bull Mars







Wait 'til I get my money right (Oh, oh, oh)

I had a dream I could buy my way to heaven

When I awoke I spent that on a necklace (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I told God I'd be back in a second

Man, it's so hard not to act reckless (Wee, do, wee, wee, do, day)

La la la la

Wait 'til I get my money right

La la la la

Then you can't tell me nothing, right?

Excuse me? Was you saying something?

Uh uh, you can't tell me nothing

Ha, ha, you can't tell me nothing

Uh uh, you can't tell me nothing (Oh, oh, oh)

Independent and intelligent, you are a highly intuitive Scorpio with an ability to analyze and accumulate a great deal of information. Resourceful and smart, you recognize the power of knowledge or education. Perceptive and discerning, you welcome opportunities to exercise your mind through argument and debate. Usually you like to be in control, and you can appear to others as an authoritative individual with a commanding personality.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, empowers you with imagination and an ability to delve deep into any particular area of interest. Imaginative, with psychic abilities, you enjoy being communicative and creative when inspired. With your vision and intuitive insight, you can easily evaluate the atmosphere around you.

A blend of caution and enthusiasm implies that you can alternate between being overconfident and self-doubting. Although a pragmatist by nature, at times you can also have unconventional ideas. This tendency to be an unorthodox thinker must not, however, become an excuse for being contrary just for the sake of being difficult. As others quickly recognize your strengths, you usually rise to a position of authority and power. Through patience and perseverance, you can endure great challenges and, with hard work, often achieve success.

After the age of fifteen, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you start to become more optimistic, with a growing need for honesty and idealism in your life. It is a time for study, travel, and expanding your mental horizons. There is a turning point at the age of forty-five, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn. You are likely to become more practical, realistic, and organized in order to achieve your goals in life, and you have a strong need for order and structure. From the age of seventy-five, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, there is another change that emphasizes issues of friendship, independence, and humanitarian ideals.

To avoid dependent situations, it may be necessary to use your strong intuition to find just the right balance between standing up for your own ideas and being receptive to the opinions of others. A little competitive fun can help you keep your sense of humour.

Although you have an introspective or philosophical nature, you can also excel in theatrical or political endeavours. As you usually do not like to take orders, you prefer to be in charge or be self-employed.

To liberate your faith and great compassion, avoid using your power in a destructive way, and avoid rebelling against others.

Charming and friendly, with a restless heart, you are a sensitive Scorpio who is versatile and adaptable. Since you have a desire for a full and varied life, you yearn for different experiences and new adventures. This need for personal freedom also suggests that it may be hard for you to find lasting satisfaction or that fluctuating moods can bring changing attitudes. Creative and colorful, you can usually communicate your ideas in a dramatic way.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Scorpio, adds to your inner strength. Idealistic and sensitive, you can be affectionate, yet secretive. Your direct approach and sharp comments indicate that you can be a good satirist. Remember, however, that your criticism can be hurtful as well as amusing. When challenged, you can show your opponent a daring and bold front. Your true tenacious spirit usually comes to the fore if you feel threatened or insecure.Your Secret Self

With your high ideals, you may feel that your sensitivity is not wasted when you are able to be of help to others. Since you can also be very businesslike, this powerful combination implies that you are a compassionate pragmatist. However, if you become disillusioned with others or too restless and impatient, you can be prone to channel your emotional sensitivities into escapism rather than confront your challenges directly or develop creative outlets for yourself.

Since you also possess a strong spirit of enterprise, you are usually enthusiastic, optimistic, and adventurous, and may possess a dynamic approach to satisfying your material needs. You may wish to channel your spiritual and creative forces into writing or turn your fine ideas into something tangible. Being very instinctive and capable of deep thought, you form instant opinions of people that are usually right. Often mentally quick and curious, with a unique sense of humour, you are good company and can be very entertaining.

Although others see you as an exciting and stimulating companion, a quest for emotional fulfillment implies that you usually dislike restrictions and prefer to ignore limitations. Looking for ways to achieve emotional satisfaction, you often turn to travel and find that a change of atmosphere helps you to relax and feel optimistic. Even though work seems to interfere with your ideas of freedom, rewards usually come from being loyal, dutiful, and emotionally responsible.

November 10

Creative and intuitive, with a magnetic personality, you are an independent Scorpio who is assertive and persuasive. Although often you are freedom-loving, success comes from the constructive use of your willpower and ingenuity. As you are often courageous and have inspired ideas, you need to choose the path of hard work in order to fulfill your ambitious dreams.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, suggests that you are imaginative and receptive, with strong convictions and a sense of vision. You enjoy a mental challenge, but in your attempt to test your wits and intelligence, try to guard against becoming too provocative or argumentative.

In order to enhance your chances for success, education is usually a cornerstone for the establishment of a solid foundation. With a quick mind and a wide range of interests, you show versatility and enthusiasm and can benefit extensively from travel and learning. As a seeker of knowledge who is thoughtful and intelligent, you usually develop independent views and good reasoning powers.

Although you are often self-disciplined, with a love of learning, the true inspiration for which you search may lie in the realm of emotional satisfaction and fulfillment. By controlling people through your willpower, you do not actually gain an advantage. It is through the art of being tolerant, amiable, and sympathetic that you gain the love and affection you seek.

Between the ages of twelve and forty-one, when your progressed Sun moves through Sagittarius, you become more open and honest, with a need for positive and optimistic ideals in life. A desire to expand your knowledge can manifest as a desire for adventure and freedom or travel and education. At the age of forty-two, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, there is a turning point as you start to become more practical, disciplined, and goal-oriented. From the age of seventy-two, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to place more emphasis on friendship and knowledge of human nature.

Your Secret Self

Although you appear outwardly strong, your sensitivity and strong emotions imply that you may at times suffer from self-doubt. By learning to show your generosity and compassion, you can avoid being emotionally controlling or manipulative to compensate. The more you rely on your own intuitive power and insight, the more success you are likely to encounter in life. It is wise, nevertheless, to avoid worry and social excesses. When positive, however, you possess the dignity and modesty that come from a desire to give your best to your work.

Dynamic and creative, with sharp and quick mental responses, you have a positive vitality and the courage to fight adversity. With a desire to lead and exercise power, you can be ambitious and very determined. Charming, generous, and kind, with the ability to make yourself popular, you may also have to learn that being too direct or overbearing can push people away. Although you will always have a playful quality, it is through developing perseverance and a responsible attitude that you are able to make the most of your remarkable potential and achieve almost anything.

Work & Vocation

Your depth of knowledge, drive, and excellent social skills enable you to reach your potential in many different areas of life. Your probing mind may attract you to research, psychology, or investigative work. Equally, you may excel in education or philosophy. In business, you will be naturally drawn to large enterprises and are an excellent problem solver. As you do not like to take orders, you need the freedom to work in your own way, and with the help of your organizational and managerial abilities you often rise to positions of prominence. Alternatively, a strong need for self-expression and a love for the dramatic may lure you to writing or the entertainment world. This birthday is also excellent for doctors and working with foreign people or places.

Numerology

Like someone with a number 1 birthday, you usually strive toward great endeavors. Nevertheless, you may have to overcome many obstacles before you arrive at your goals. Energetic and original, you stand by your own beliefs even when they differ from others’. Your ability to be a self-starter with a pioneering spirit encourages you to travel far afield or strike out on your own. You may also learn that the world does not revolve around you, and you should guard against selfishness and being dictatorial. Success and accomplishment are important to all number 10 individuals, and frequently you find the way to the top of your profession. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you are versatile, original, and multitalented. Strong convictions and a need to attain self-mastery imply that you can be spiritually aware. Although you possess an entertaining and witty personality, your carefree spirit needs direction and a purpose. At times, direct and opinionated, you say too much, but you are rarely accused of being dull or boring. As an ambitious individual, you must not overestimate your powers or become self-obsessed.

Positive: leadership, creative, progressive, forceful, optimistic, strong convictions, competitive, independent, gregarious

Negative: overbearing, jealous, egotistical, too proud, antagonistic, lack of restraint, selfish, weak, unstable, impatient

Love & Relationships

Strong and forceful, you respect those who are independent and knowledgeable. As an entertaining companion, you should have no trouble attracting friends and admirers. You usually look for a partner who is strong-willed and clever or who has qualities that you prize. Although you seem self-assured, on an intimate level you may have doubts about your own feelings and at times appear indecisive or skeptical. If suspicious, you may need to learn about trust and integrity. Although you can be creative and dramatic in your relationships, be careful of a tendency to become too demanding or stubborn.

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

@PhoenixRising, thanks for the thread! 👍

When is your birthday?

November 12

Friendly and communicative, you are a multitalented Scorpio with a flair for dealing with people. Although at times you may appear unfeeling on the out-side, you can be sensitive, with powerful emotions. Idealistic, you like to find out the truth and are often involved in exposing hidden issues. Your vitality and cerebral power are often subdued by your charming personality, but once you learn how to communicate your vision, you can inspire others with your originality and depth of feeling.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, suggests that you are imaginative, with psychic ability as well as intense emotions. Since you enjoy a mental challenge and like to test your wits and intelligence, your easygoing manner can at times be misleading.

Confident in your knowledge, you can accomplish and achieve success, but the more learned you are, the more focused you become. Harmonious by nature, you have a need to establish peace of mind and create a congenial atmosphere through building a firm foundation and establishing a set of positive convictions. Alternatively, when you find yourself in confrontational situations, you may succumb to power games or become provocative and disagreeable. You benefit from enhancing your persuasive skills and diplomacy to convince others to change their mind.

When you are aged ten through thirty-nine, your progressed Sun is in Sagittarius, highlighting issues of adventure and freedom. You may wish to explore life by constantly expanding your mental outlook, whether through study, travel, or your personal quest for truth. At age forty, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, there is a turning point as you start to take a more determined, disciplined, and realistic approach to life. This may involve manifesting more order and structure. At the age of seventy, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to place more emphasis on friendship, independence, and humanitarian ideals.

Your Secret Self

Highly intuitive, with a powerful sense of vision, you will find that self-discipline and concentration are essential to develop your amazing mental potential. Your ability to get by fairly easily without trying too hard may not do much to stimulate the hard work needed to fulfill your enormous potential. An understanding that knowledge is power ensures that you will always have a keen desire for new learning while keeping a certain childlike quality.

The subtlety and intelligence associated with your birthday suggests that you are likely to be interested in understanding the motives and secrets of others and are attracted to people who possess a fine intellect. Although you are aware of your innate wisdom, you may lack the patience to build on what you already know and must particularly avoid escapism through fantasy, alcohol, or drugs, due to your acute sensitivity.

Primary Star's Influence

Al Schemali offers opportunities for good fortune. You have a sound intellect and a flair for science or esoteric subjects, which highlights your intuitive and psychic abilities. This star may bestow honors, wealth, and riches and may also bring long-lasting happiness.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Al Schemali imparts a strong character; leadership abilities, and executive skills. With the help of this star’s influence, you may enjoy promotion to a high position in your career and achieve success after initial difficulties. This star warns that you should avoid legal entanglements and questionable situations. On the other hand, trouble does not last long and good fortune returns if the correct choices are made.

Positive: sound common sense, wealth of ideas, optimism, organizational abilities

Negative: exaggeration, conceit, arrogance

Work & Vocation

With your ability to come across to others as really positive and charming, you can make your ideas known in an entertaining way. A good strategist, with people skills, you possess a natural aptitude for business, promotion, or sales. Not liking to take orders, however, suggests that you prefer management positions or may be inclined to become self-employed. Alternatively, with your desire for the limelight, you could successfully pursue a career as an actor, director, or politician. On the other hand, your keen intellect and communication skills could attract you to writing, law, education, or healing work.

Numerology

With a number 12 birthday, usually you are intuitive, helpful, and friendly, with good reasoning powers. Since you want to establish true individuality, you are often innovative. Naturally understanding and sensitive, you also know how to use tact and cooperative methods to accomplish your aims and objectives. When you achieve a balance between your need for self-expression and your natural inclination to be supportive of others, you can find emotional satisfaction and personal fulfillment. You may nevertheless need to find the courage to stand on your own two feet and develop self-confidence or learn not to get easily discouraged by other people. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that although you can express yourself, you are at times opinionated and outspoken. Being intuitive and versatile implies that you have many interests, but without perseverance and determination, you can waste your energy and spread yourself too thin. As a highly intuitive individual, you are a master at assessing people and finding out what lies beneath the surface.

Positive: creative, attractive, initiative, disciplinarian, can promote yourself or others

Negative: reclusive, eccentric, uncooperative, overly sensitive, lack of self-esteem

Love & Relationships

As you are likely to be powerful and assertive, you need to feel secure and in command of your’ life. Although idealistic and practical, you have a tendency to be stubborn, which implies that you become fixed in your basic beliefs and adhere to your own strict moral codes. In close relationships, learn to compromise rather than try to control your partner or make unreasonable demands.

Your friendly style can at times hide the fact that you enjoy investigating and testing your inner strength with wit and intelligence. Although sensitive and considerate, you are a natural strategist with practical abilities, and you can combine your innovative ideas and determination to make your dreams a reality.

A blend of ambition and inertia implies that although you are clever and proficient, when you find a subject that captures your imagination you may need to develop self-discipline in order to remain focused on your goal. Since you can inspire others with your ideas and unique vision, do not allow your curiosity and many interests to distract you from your objectives or let anxiety and worry undermine your great potential. Your desire for information often makes you very knowledgeable in your chosen field, and since you are versatile and competitive, your ideas can make money for you. In the pursuit of your ambitions, guard against becoming overly serious, which often causes you unnecessary stress.

I'm more than just a picture

I'm a daughter and a sister

Sometimes it's hard for me to show

That I'm more than just a rumour

Or a song on your computer

There's more to me than people know

Some days I'm broke, some days I'm rich

Some days I'm nice, some days I can be a bitch

Some days I'm strong, some days I quit

I don't let it show, but I've been through some shit

I can swear, I can joke

I say what's on my mind

If I drink, if I smoke

I keep up with the guys

And you see me holding up my middle finger to the world

Fuck your ribbons and your pearls

'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl

Scorp Sun+Leeb Mars







Standing nearby the crossroads

Looking at where to go

Those exotic sounding places

I would dearly love to know

But that voice of indecision

Says ever yes and ever no

Shall I or shant I, should I?

I can never make up my mind

There's a million and one good reasons

To put it till another time

But that voice of indecision

Says ever yes and ever no

November 15

Ambitious and intelligent, with an enterprising spirit, you are an active Scorpio with a restless nature. Your birthday implies that although your greatest asset is your quick and piercing mind, at times you can scatter your energies in too many directions and fail to find something that will keep you interested and satisfied. Your creative mental potential is, however, excellent for learning new skills and improving on existing knowledge. Whatever you do, your creative input and ingenuity can make a real difference.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Cancer, suggests that you are versatile and imaginative, with strong instincts and intense feelings. With your unusual sense of humor, you can be witty and entertaining, but your friendly manner can sometimes be misleading, since you enjoy a mental challenge and like to test your intelligence against others.

Although you have the ability to come straight to the point of matters and solve problems swiftly and efficiently, guard against a tendency to be impatient. By developing a more persevering attitude, you can overcome your tendency to act impulsively. This will also aid you to be more industrious and methodical on issues that concern thoroughness and attention to detail.

While you are between the ages of seven and thirty-six, your progressed Sun is in Sagittarius, highlighting issues of expansion and opportunity. You may feel optimistic and able to take chances, and you desire to travel or study during this period. At age thirty-seven, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, you reach a turning point as you start to take a more disciplined, determined, and realistic approach to life. You may have a stronger awareness of your goals and ambitions and have a greater need for order. From the age of sixty-seven, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you start to place more emphasis on friendship, independence, and humanitarian ideals.

Your Secret Self

You may mask your inner sensitivity to protect your vulnerability. At times you can be unsure of your feelings or experience a general dissatisfaction with life. To avoid becoming bored, you must keep your spirit of adventure alive. Travel, change, and a desire to be constantly exploring, whether mentally or physically, can help you find new and exciting experiences.

Your quick instincts can make you highly intuitive. Usually you work best on your first impression of a person or situation, which is invariably correct. You can develop this talent by having more faith in your perceptive abilities. Guiding your life by it, you gain deeper insight and wisdom and avoid escapism through overindulgence. Being willing to take a gamble for the sake of your grand plans, you are often lucky to be in the right place at the right time.

Primary Star’s Influence

Agena bestows achievement and the rise to a high position. This star also imparts vitality and good health. Often you are refined and possess a high moral code, which may in turn bring friendship, success, and honours.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Agena bestows ambition and success. You are probably well connected or have prominent friends and associates. This star provides good social skills and the ability to attract wide popularity, which in turn brings opportunities. Agena encourages mental activity and quick, outspoken responses; however, it also suggests that speaking out of turn or being indiscreet can be costly.

Positive: assertive, clever; stamina, popularity, good morals

Negative: rashness, indecision, lack of honour

Work & Vocation

Whatever work you decide on, you learn very quickly, so you need activities that can keep you mentally challenged. Having an exceptional ability to talk to anybody from any walk of life as well as to make helpful contacts can certainly help you in all your endeavours. Needing variety, you may be drawn to careers that involve travel or constant change. You are ambitious and need recognition; this often ensures that you rise to the top of your profession. Careers that can use your quick intelligence may include business, law, or politics. Equally, you may use your dramatic gifts on the stage or through writing. With your love of freedom and restlessness, you may experiment with many different kinds of experiences or occupations in your desire to find one that suits your enterprising personality. Many people of this birthday often work for themselves.

Numerology

Versatility, enthusiasm, and restlessness are suggested by the number 15 birthday. Usually you are quick, with a charismatic personality. Your greatest assets are your strong instincts and the ability to learn quickly through combining theory and practice. On many occasions you manage to earn while learning new skills. Often you utilize your intuitive powers and are quick at recognizing opportunities when they arise. As a number 15 birthday, you possess a talent for attracting money or receiving help and support from others. Although you are naturally adventurous, you nevertheless need to find a real base or a home that you can call your own. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that although you have inner doubts, you have a strong character and are often determined and self-willed. By learning to utilize your natural common sense and sound judgment, you can overcome a fear of periods of instability. By being resolute yet flexible, you can welcome the unexpected and turn situations to your advantage.

Positive: willing, generous, responsible, kind, cooperative, appreciative, creative ideas

Negative: disruptive, irresponsible, self-centered, loss of faith, indecision, materialistic, misusing power

Love & Relationships

Although you are highly intuitive and sensitive, your skeptical attitude suggests that sometimes you can be doubting and noncommittal, preferring to keep your thoughts to yourself. You need mental stimulation and variety; otherwise you become bored easily. A need for security and stability can be an important factor in your personal relationships. By being patient and accepting or more discriminating, you learn whom to grow to love and trust. Do not let a self-destructive element or a desire to get even spoil your relationships. When positive, you can be generous and giving with those you love.

Ain't no man, no woman

No beast alive that can beat me

'Cause I'm born to fight

Bite my tongue, bide my time

Wearing a warning sign

Wait 'til the world is mine

Visions I vandalize

Cold in my kingdom size

Fell for these ocean eyes

You should see me in a crown

I'm gonna run this nothing town

Watch me make 'em bow

One by one by one

One by one by

You should see me in a crown

Your silence is my favourite sound

Watch me make 'em bow

One by one by one

One by one by one

Count my cards, watch them fall

Blood on a marble wall

I like the way they all

Scream

Tell me which one is worse

Living or dying first

Sleeping inside a hearse

I don't dream

You should see me in a crown

I'm gonna run this nothing town

Watch me make 'em bow

One by one by one

November 16

Intuitive and thoughtful, with a pragmatic approach, you are a Scorpio with good organizational and planning skills. As a rational thinker, you like to make good use of the wide knowledge you frequently acquire through your inquisitiveness and probing mind. As you are a perfectionist, this cerebral potential suggests that you like to solve problems and can succeed in research work and study.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Cancer, empowers you with imagination and psychic abilities. This influence also suggests that you possess deep feelings and a capacity to express yourself dramatically through a dynamic unconscious. Idealistic, with a forceful personality, you have the ability to understand current trends and can enjoy being creative while making money if you do not succumb to being critical or fixed in your ideas.

Positive thinking and education, whether formal or self-directed, usually play an important role in your advancement. Although often skeptical, you may discover sometime in life a need to enhance your common sense by exploring a more philosophical or mystical perspective. You may even find yourself acting as an advisor to others. Since you are particularly drawn to people who are clever or interesting, you are liable to make contacts based on shared interests.

While you are between the ages of six and thirty-five, your progressed Sun is in Sagittarius, highlighting issues of adventure and expansion in life. You may feel optimistic or wish to extend your mental horizons through study or travel during this period. At age thirty-six, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, you reach a turning point as you start to take a more practical, ordered, and realistic approach to life. From the age of sixty-six, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to increase your powers of observation and become more independent, humanitarian, and group-conscious.

Your Secret Self

Inside you are extremely sensitive and vulnerable, even though on the surface you appear confident, dramatic, and strong. You gradually come to realize that responsibility and hard work are the way to success, and you are willing to make sacrifices for your objectives or for others. A deep desire for harmony and simplicity may find expression through art and music; it may also emphasize the importance of your home and family.

Counterbalancing your desire for peace is a desire to move and be constantly exploring new mental horizons. The quest for knowledge and, ultimately, wisdom can take you into the world of education, travel, or new adventures. To avoid alternating between restlessness and getting stuck in a rut, it is important for you to lead a well-balanced life, reflect, and stay calm.

Primary Star’s Influence

Agena bestows achievement and the rise to a high position. This star also imparts vitality and good health. Often you are refined and possess a high moral code, which may in turn bring friendship, success, and honors.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Agena bestows ambition and success. You are probably well connected or have prominent friends and associates. This star provides good social skills and the ability to attract wide popularity, which in turn brings opportunities. Agena encourages mental activity and quick, outspoken responses; however it also suggests that speaking out of turn or being indiscreet can be costly.

Positive: assertive, eleven stamina, popularity, good morals

Negative: rashness, indecision, lack of honour

Work & Vocation

Practical and shrewd, you have an innate business sense. Employers respect your good organizational skills and the fact that you can be responsible. This can aid you in administration or managerial work. Being very independent, however, you like the freedom to work in your own way or may prefer to be self-employed. You are generally aware of the advantages of working cooperatively with others and may become involved in working partnerships. Your keen mind may attract you to research, education, law, or advisory positions. Some people of this birthday also have an interest in the study of philosophy, psychology, or metaphysics. Equally, you can be financially successful in sales, agencies, or promotion. You are a good long-term planner and usually enjoy fighting for a cause.

Famous people who share your birthday include actress Bo Derek, composer William Handy, boxer Frank Bruno, jockey Willie Carson, comedian Griff Rhys Jones, actor Burgess Meredith, scientist Werner Von Braun, and writer Chinua Achebe.

Numerology

A number 16 birthday suggests that you are thoughtful, sensitive, and friendly. Although analytical, you often judge life and people according to how you feel. As a number 16 personality, however, you can experience inner tensions when facing friction between a need for self-expression and responsibility to others. With this birthdate, you may be interested in world affairs and may join international corporations or the media world. If creative, you can have a talent for writing with sudden flashes of inspiration. You may need to learn how to balance between being overly confident and being doubtful and insecure. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that although you are receptive and imaginative, with powerful emotions, you can be secretive and often hide your feelings by appearing collected or aloof. You may prefer to rationalize your feelings but are prone to strong emotional reactions or periods of emotional turbulence. These strong desires for self-fulfillment need to find expression through an ideal or a cause. Although your expectations of others are high, being unsympathetic or too critical can undermine your long-term plans.

Positive: knowledgeable, responsibilities to home and family, integrity, intuitive, social, cooperative, insightful

Negative: worry, never satisfied, irresponsible, self-promoting, opinionated, skeptical, fussy, irritable

Love & Relationships

Although you are a pragmatic and intelligent person, your idealistic and individual character suggests that often you are drawn to unconventional relationships or to people from foreign countries. You generally like someone who can positively stimulate your mind, and, once committed, you become loving, loyal, and supportive. Although you are a perfectionist, avoid imposing your ideals and beliefs on others, as they might resent your bossy approach. A touch of youthfulness and mischief will stay with you throughout your relationships to ensure that you do not take things too seriously.

If you are looking for a partner, you might start by searching for someone born on one of the following days:

Scorp Sun+Sag Mars







People say, "A fire's bound to fade"

But when I want it bad, I just can't wait

You can be a cynic all you want

But when I'm on my feet, I give my all

It's in my bloodstream, I

Think I'm ready for a higher ground

Finding my reasons why

'Cause I never wanna slow down

Call me naive, I got wide eyes

But if it goes to hell, I know I tried

Scorp Sun+Sag Mars







I am the sea on a moonless night

Calling, falling, slipping tides

I am the leaky, dripping pipes

The endless aching drops of light

I am the raindrop falling down

Always longing for the deeper ground

I am the broken, breaking seas

Even my blood finds ways to bleed

Even the rivers ways to run

Even the rain to reach the sun

Even my thirsty streams

Even in my dreams

I am restless

I am restless

I am restless

Looking for you
