Scorpio is the sign of death, reincarnation, sex, and other mystical forces 
in life.  It is during this time when the earth itself is going through its 
own sort of "death" that Scorpio comes.  Scorpios are also known for being 
very "in tune" with themselves and are known as brilliant.
    It is during this time that we start to re-evaluate who we are.  We have 
gone through our searching for the true love (and some of us found it, some 
of us didn't) of their life and finding joy in another person's prescence, 
the human soul begins to focus inward on itself.  Scorpio is a time of 
revelations within yourself, about yourself and even about others.  You might 
find yourself a bit withdrawn, thinking about things you never truly 
considered before, and down right even getting philosophical sometimes.  This 
is not only a time where we sit and think (altho the man who sculpted the 
Thinker sculture was a Scorpio!), but Scorpio also can have a dark side.  We 
may find ourselves tempted to the dark side and find ourselves fighting a 
moral struggle.  A large part of a Scorpio's life are morals and within this 
stage we find ourselves evalutaing our own morals and ideas, what we will do 
and what we wont.  Perhaps pushing ourselves to the limit to prove that we 
can or shy away from what we once thought before was "okay".  
    Personally, I love Scorpio.  It really makes me start to understand 
exactly why I "tick" the way I do.  We move onward from Libra into a 
self-examinatory phase of the year where we truly consider the question:  
"What do I desire?"
