Scorpio: 23 October - 22 November
Intense, powerful and passionate about things - that's the Scorpio approach to life. If Scorpio is your Sun sign, then Mars and Pluto, the planets which look after the sign will give you the concentration and strength to make anything that you want to happen, happen. It also makes you a fearsome enemy when control is taken away from you and you feel that somebody else is trying to manipulate your life for you.
If, as a true Scorpio, you could live your life without ever having to compromise your Scorpionic principles, then you would have total power over everybody, know everything there was to know about everybody and their motives, be completely hidden from everybody unless you willed otherwise and strike a mixture of fear and fascination into the hearts of those you choose to meet. The key to this passionate soul is the word power. Scorpios want it. Not the sort of show-off power of status symbols that your friends the Capricorns like, though you understand that very well, nor the physical power that blazes the Aries; what a Scorpio wants is the real stuff - the invisible, string-pulling, controlling sort of power that makes people move when you use it. Therefore the need for control and power are key factors in the Scorpio personality. To many signs, power has to do with the cause and effect of external events. To Scorpio, it has to do with the experience of self and self-mastery. "I will therefore I am" is the core of the Scorpionic scheme of things. To be out of control or to be under someone else's control are deathlike experiences for the classic Scorpionic mind. Scorpio is the sign of death, sex and transformation. Herein lies the divinity and the mystery of this sign, for each of these experiences has deep psychological value, the potential of which is great power.
You are very, very secretive about your true feelings and wherever possible you try to keep them in check. You show feelings which are appropriate to the situation, sure, but your real feelings are a long way behind those and only you know what they are. If you keep your feelings under control, you think to yourself and you know how other people are going to behave, then you will always be in control of the situation. That's how it works most of the time. Hard work and turning your ambitions into realities are natural to you; once you've decided, then that's it - you get on with it, control the situation and achieve it.

t the end of this you have considerable power and there is nothing you like better than playing with it when you've got it. Scorpio ladies have a reputation of being femme fatales; Mata Hari is the usual quoted example, but Princess Grace of Monaco was a Scorpio too.
Sex has profound power in the Scorpio mind. This influence is vast and psychologically pervasive. Sexually tuned into all circumstances, this awareness can lead to an emotionally intense experience of life. Therefore, Scorpios bear the legacy as the sexual sign of the zodiac. The power of sex is the power of connectedness. Sex can connect all aspects of ourselves - our minds, hearts, souls and sexual organs. Scorpio makes its connections in all kinds of ways and with much intensity. This makes you very attractive to the opposite sex.
Scorpio homes tend to be rather dark and densely furnished. You go for dark colors and for heavy and luxurious fabrics. Your taste in furniture is actually a close match for your taste in clothes: deep, dramatic reds are a frequent choice and so is black.
Scorpio cars are usually impressive. Scorpios are different from other Water signs in that they are more intense, more powerful, more concentrated in every way. Everything a Scorpio stands for is impressively, frighteningly, potent in its effects and of course this intense quality has to be found in the Scorpionic car such as dark, rich colors (red, black) and a car that evokes a powerful, emotional response from people. A car such as a black Porsche 911 with wide wheel arches and a spoiler on the boot. It even looks like a scorpion: black, shiny and menacing. A viper would suit your tastes too.
Scorpio tastes in food are a combination of two factors: being a Water sign and being the astrological influence of the planet Mars. Being a Water sign means that you like your food moist and that you like it rather soft too. All dishes with come with a sauce or some other liquid dressing appeal to you. Smooth-textured food, whether savory like pates and souffles or sweet like cream desserts, is something you like very much. Mars governs all hot or spicy flavorings and any foodstuff which is red in color. This means that you like curry or chili; the flavor is hot, but the texture is soft, the way you like it. Finally, Scorpios drink a lot, as all the Water signs must to keep their body fluids levels correct. Mars' influence gives you a liking for strong spirits, though brandy is usually considered the Scorpion

Scorpios have distinct tastes in holidays. You like to go somewhere where there is an element of risk and excitement, where you might get yourself into a bit of an adventure. A holiday involving water sports also attracts you. There are various countries in the world which are associated with the sign of Scorpio. Most of the North African coast is traditionally Scorpionic in character. There is a strong attraction between Scorpios and the Arab culture, which is all to do with the influences of Mars again; you find its passion and mystery very appealing.

Sagittarius...a glimpse of the sagittarius since I am at it....actually pretty accurate...I was tired of reading about the adventurous type of Sagi...
One of the luckiest signs by far, natives of this sign never worry and never need to. Sagittarians have flair, talent, imagination and the ability to come out of the tightest scrapes sunny side up and smiling. It's all because of the influence through your sign of the planet Jupiter. You Sagittarians are big people even when you're small (which isn't often!). You are big-hearted, big-boned and have big ideas. You are also big spenders and sometimes big-headed, but it doesn't seem to matter. This is because each and every one of you is full of the energy of the planet Jupiter, the biggest planet in the solar system. Jupiter gives us the word "jovial": there is something about Jupiter's influence that makes us smile no matter what.
Jupiter is essentially good-natured and it travels a large expanse of the solar system. Therefore, Sagittarians are often good-natured and enjoy traveling a lot. Sagittarians are excited by the prospect of anything new, especially if it comes from far away. The romance of travel for its own sake is particularly yours; you can't think of anything worse than living in the same place for the rest of your life. Staying still, putting down roots and building a cozy family life sounds dreadful to an adventurer like you - new people and new experiences are what you long for.
There are two basic types of Sagittarians. First there are the intellectual types who read books on anything and everything. Novels, travel, history, anything at all. You are probably good at languages; you are the sort who can learn a language from waiters while you are on holiday. The second sort of Sagittarian is the sporty and active sort. If it involves movement, you do it. Riding, skiing, football, basketball, motorized sports appeal to you.

When you're in love, you give your partner everything you've got, like a big, boisterous puppy and it's sometimes a bit much for the other person to take. It's not that they don't like you, but your enthusiasm is rather overwhelming, especially in the first stages of a relationship. As is the case, you are naive about emotions at times. This is because you don't need anyone else as an emotional support, thanks to Jupiter. Nor do you want anyone to be dependant on you; you like the freedom to chase after new ideas, new people and new places. What you're really after is someone who likes your company as much as you like theirs and who is with you because they think it's fun.
Sagittarians do not like anyone or anything to diminish their sense of freedom. Sagittarians always want to feel free to make choices and to move in any direction that suits them. Sagittarius is the sign of the adventurer, bound only by your beliefs. Sagittarians have expansive minds and are eager to learn and experience, always restless and impatient to move ahead.
Deep inside, Sagittarians believe they can do anything they want. "No" is a foreign word in your vocabulary. You don't believe that words of limitations belong to you. Therefore they are left free for the consuming quest of your personal utopia.
In the natural horoscope, Sagittarius is associated with the ninth house of adventure, higher philosophy, religion, travel and foreign lands. The ninth house is also the house of knowledge, values, beliefs and ideals. Thus the archetypal Sagittarian mind seeks to live through or move toward something greater. Sagittarians tend not to see life as it is but how they would like it to be.

The Sagittarian mind is like a restless child's. It is fresh and alive, idealistic and expectant. There is an inherent buoyancy in the Sagittarian nature which makes even boring moments in life seem like highly amusing anecdotes. And this brings us to the Sagittarian charm. The typical Sagittarian has a lot of it and it serves them well. Sagittarians can be memorable rascals or deeply thinking philosophers, adventurers and entertainers. Whatever they are momentarily, they are invincibly charming. You can make an adventure of a rainy day or a comedy out of what appears to be a miserable situation.
Sagittarians are the comedians of the zodiac. You can see the funny side of every situation. Sagittarians can also be pranksters and clever witty caricaturists, stand-up comedians and the most rapid tongue-in-cheek deliverers of a witty line. Humor is part of the great Sagittarian life adventure. It gives breath to the banal. It startles. It expands.
Food to you is fuel, something that you need to keep up your life style . You enjoy it and you like eating it but it has to be said that you would probably enjoy it more if you ate it more slowly; Sagittarians wolf down their food. Like the other two Fire signs, Aries and Leo, your appetite could be described as "hearty" - you enjoy substantial meals and lots of meat.
Sagittarians, along with Arians, are the great sportsmen of the zodiac. Sagittarians are team members, preferring to play in company. Many kinds of sports appeal to you such as motorized sports, rugby, football, equestrian sports, cross-country running etc.
