Scorpio is the eighth sign of the zodiac, representing the depths of emotional and psychological experience and the transformative power of crisis and renewal. As a fixed water sign ruled by Pluto (traditionally Mars), Scorpio embodies the principles of penetrating insight, emotional depth, and the phoenix-like ability to rise from ashes.The Scorpion navigates the underworld of the psyche, unafraid of the shadows that others avoid. Scorpio energy teaches us about the power of emotional truth, the necessity of facing our fears, and the profound transformations that become possible when we embrace change.
