I am a big believer in the “yin-yang” dualism concept. Every person (every sign) has their good & bad parts and those things together make up who we are. It’s important that we recognize that we have two sides, so we best know how to control our behaviors and reactions.

It’s important to know…

Zodiac sign traits differ depending on their placement. While our Sun sign is responsible for our personality and most important placement, looking into an individual’s other planetary placements, such as the Venus or Mars…etc. help us to understand a person better.

While a Scorpio Sun is what actually makes a person “a Scorpio”, other Scorpio placements will have the same qualities in relation to something specific.

For example: a Scorpio Sun means the Scorpio qualities listed below are your personality traits; your main qualities. Having a Scorpio Venus means you would demonstrate these qualities in your love style. Or having a Scorpio Mars would mean that the Scorpio characteristics below would show up when you’re in conflict.

So as you can see, Scorpio’s make a great shoulder to lean on. They are highly sensitive and emotional, making them great listeners and very understanding. Plus, they already know what’s going on.

Scorpio sun sign refers to the zodiac sign of Scorpio, which is associated with individuals born between approximately October 23rd and November 21st.
