Scorpio is the "tracker" -- the sign of the great outdoors, the true nature lover, strong individualists who will not be stopped once you feel that you have embarked upon a valid enterprise.  You are willing to take risks which would appall many other people.  You are intensely investigative, resourceful and determined.  You are inspired to solve mysteries and renew a feeling of emotional security, safety and trust in situations of vulnerability, exposure or loss.

You seem to know instinctively what other people will do and make allowance for it.  Your self-control, progressive nature and practical intuition keeps you from being impulsive.  On the contrary, your drive for action does not allow you to become a long-range planner -- you meet issues as you find them, certain that one success will lead to another.  Yet, you can be your own worst enemy, without even beginning to realize it, for tact is not one of your assets.

The source of your energy is your desire to gain insight into the underlying feelings and motives of others.  Your interest in sex is usually very strong. 

You have a tendency to be secretive and skeptical until your affairs come to fruition because your perception of things is more often intuitive than rational.  You want to  vanquish outworn conditions in order to make way for renewed life.  Your own life may follow a cyclical pattern of depletion followed by periods of complete renewal as you purge your own toxic attachments, obsessions and grudges.

Because of your intense emotional drive, you need to keep your integrity high.  Otherwise you can fall into undesirable behavior such as jealousy, hatred, possessiveness or vindictiveness.

Your gift is the intensity of your perceptions, the depth of your human understanding and your desire to share mutual trust.
