What Scorpio is like

Scorpio nature

Scorpio is water that stays put. Mars gives it strength and willpower, and the fixed nature makes it intense and loyal.

Nature

You are quiet, strong and hard to read.

You watch before you speak, and you see through people quickly. Once you decide something, you do not give up.

Love

You love deeply and expect full loyalty.

You love deeply and expect full loyalty. Trust takes time to build with you, and a broken promise is hard to forget.

Career

You are good at finding out the truth.

Research, medicine and surgery, investigation, finance, insurance, psychology and engineering suit you. You do best with work that needs focus.

Money

You are careful, and good with other people's money.

You keep your finances private and plan for the long run. Shared money, family property and investments are areas you handle well.

Health

You recover well if you rest.

The private parts and bladder are Scorpio's areas. Stress held inside tires you more than hard work. Talking it out helps.

Family and friends

You have a few friends, and you keep them for life.

You keep a small circle and protect it fiercely. Family secrets are safe with you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Scorpio

Is this page about my moon sign or sun sign?

It is written for the moon sign, your rashi, because that is what Indian rashifal goes by. If Scorpio is your sun sign or lagna, much of the nature part still fits you. Your kundli shows all three. With the Moon in Scorpio, the mind is said to feel deeply and to keep its feelings private. The tradition asks for a little extra care of the mind here. Scorpio lagna is associated with an intense, private and determined nature.

Is sade sati running for Scorpio?

No. Sade sati for Scorpio comes when Saturn passes through Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius. Right now Saturn is in Pisces, the 5th sign from Scorpio. Saturn moves into Aries around June 2027, the 6th sign from Scorpio.

Should a Scorpio wear a red coral?

A stone is never picked from the sign alone. It depends on where Mars sits in your own chart, and many people do well without any stone. We do not sell stones. If you want one, ask a pandit you trust to look at your full kundli.

Which day and god are good for Scorpio?

Tuesday, Mars's day. Many Scorpio families visit a Hanuman temple or say the Hanuman Chalisa on Tuesdays. Both are simple and cost nothing.

Which jobs suit Scorpio best?

Roles that need focus and depth: research, medicine and surgery, investigation, finance and insurance, psychology and engineering.

Who should a Scorpio marry?

Cancer, Virgo, Capricorn and Pisces are read as easy fits. But for marriage, families match the two full kundlis, not just the signs. Kundli milan checks 36 gunas, Manglik and timing for both.
