ABOUT YOU

This is you:

You have a haunting sweetness and compassion which endears you to people. You are intensely loyal to friends, and this will be richly rewarded. You are heroic, dedicated to family ties and gently protective of weaker souls. You are fiercely ambitious, but your ambition is never obvious. You have a strange attachment to death. One of the strangest patterns in astrology is the death of a relative in the family within either a year before or the year after the birth of a Scorpio. And when a Scorpio dies, there will be a birth in the family within the year before or the year after. Your symbol is the triumphant phoenix rising from its own smouldering ashes.

You as a man:

You need emotional excess to survive. You thrive on a need to be loved and approved. In a word, you are invincible.

Normally, you will surround yourself with luxury. You love mysteries, and solving the puzzle of love is an irresistible challenge. Marriage gives you a certain security, but you will want to get out of it before it actually happens.

In a relationship with perfect understanding, you will be tender, sympathetic and considerate. You will repay your woman's loyalty with the kind of love most women only read about and wish for.

You as a woman:

You are magnetic, proud and totally confident. You are a strong woman, and hate to flutter your eyelashes and look pretty. You can be overbearing and domineering, sarcastic and frigid. You look for ambition in a man, and you cannot excuse his weakness.

You are fiercely possessive of your man. If he does not commit, you chase him, till you can get a positive answer.

You hate being possessed. You are also very stubborn. You refuse to see any viewpoint but your own when emotions are involved. Your passion for living can be all-consuming, yet in a real storm, your cool, calm reason and steely strength will be a life raft.

You as a child:

You need to be a winner very early in life. You have to learn to be considerate and a good sport. Because of your blunt speech and plainspoken manner, you seem forthright, but there is a great need for privacy.

You have a sharp, open mind and an uncanny perception of theories. You can be the biggest prankster, and still top the school honours list. A good teacher is all it takes to hone your skills.

You deeply respect your family circle. Whatever you become, you will be the best in your chosen field. You are determined enough to get what you want, and strong enough to hang on to it.
