Scorpio Characteristics
This sign governs the genital organs, the groins, bladder, and sex functions of the Grand Man, or Microcosm. It
is a fixed, nocturnal, southern, mute sign of the Zodiac. The higher attributes are attachment, tenacity, and
silence.
The Sun enters the sign on or about the 24th of October, and
departs from the sign on or about the 21st of November. The Sun on entering the sign should be given six days
before coming into full touch and action with the influence of the sign. A person born between the dates of the
24th and the 30th of October would not receive the full central results of the sign's individuality, as he would be
born when The Sun was on the edge of the sign. This is known as "The Cusp." Its
nature and impulses partake of the sign The Sun has just passed through and out from, and the native will also
partake of the attributes of the sign of the Zodiac The Moon is
located in at the time of birth.
These people are allied to the great powers of the ocean of this planet, and are possessed of a wonderful
vibratory force, which gives them a great vitality through electro-magnetic influences. So marked is this power
that they are able to benefit all who are closely connected with them. Their personal presence is a healing. They
possess indomitable will and self-control, and remarkable skill in the use of their hands. Their touch is so firm
and delicate, their observation so keen, their poise so perfect, that they make the best surgeons in the world.
They are not moved by the complaints or fears of their patients, and preserve the coolness of their native
element under all circumstances, however trying. Such persons are often considered unfeeling and unsympathetic,
and this is sometimes true. However, more frequently, it is an appearance caused by a resolute and
unflinching determination to succeed. Before an operation some of these surgeons are regarded by their patients as
demons. Afterwards they are always gods.
The genius of eloquence is sometimes a direct inheritance of those born under this sign. They are powerful and
magnetic public speakers, and when their spiritual nature is aroused they make the most popular and convincing
clergymen. They have great tact and taste in the choice of language, and are usually very well aware of their
influence over those with whom they come in contact. Those who write excel in the construction of short
stories.
One strong characteristic of these people is a silent, dignified superiority of appearance. This is a very
important factor in their success. They are usually courteous and affable when not engaged in serious business;
then they can be blunt to cruelty.
They are fond of the good things of the earth, and have a fine taste in dress, but are not so devoted to style
and show as their Cancer neighbors. They are especially fond of outdoor sports, and are natural lovers of ocean
travel and ocean views.
When these people are awakened and spiritualized, they are the salt of the earth, helpful, powerful, tender,
and devoted to humanity. The reverse of this is also true.
They usually have so much business of their own to carry to success that they are not curious concerning the
affairs of their neighbors.They have large self-esteem and approbativeness to match. Flattery is the most powerful
weapon that can be used with the average Scorpio person.
