Scorpio is symbolized by the scorpion and ruled by the planet Pluto, who was also the God of the Underworld. Pluto is the ruler of regenerating force, and the circle of life. Those born under the sign of Scorpio are known for their intensity, passion, imagination and mystery. Many believe that like the scorpion itself, if you cross as Scorpio you will be stung and it will take a long time to for the wound between the two of you to heal.

Scorpio is represented by dark shades of red: maroon, crimson, burgundy, reminiscent of their passion. They don’t always like to admit it, they they are a deeply jealous sign, especially when it comes to their lovers. Often coined the most misunderstood sign of the zodiac, it’s only because their emotions run so deep they can be perceived as being complex and complicated. They like to know everyone’s agenda while only sharing what they think is necessary but don’t think they are completely cold and calculating. They are also some of the most loyal and arguably best lovers of the zodiac.
