If Your Birth Sign Is Scorpio...

Guarded is a key word for you.

You keep your privacy highly protected.

Your reluctance to openly

Exhibit your feelings must be respected.

 

Though you are interested in others,

They know you ONLY to a degree.

Even when seemingly open, you show

Only what you want them to see.

 

Your strong will and your ability

To want to get to the bottom of things

Make your sense of resourcefulness

Guide you to seek out and pull the right strings.

 

You can be very stubborn at times;

Your reticence becomes persistence.

You're not usually combative, but when

You're pushed you knock down all resistance.

 

If people try to fool you, forget it.

You DON'T like being manipulated.

The outspokenness of Scorpios

Often remains understated.

 

You could be called a truth-seeker;

Your insight is powerful, your judgment keen.

Challenges are not to be feared

And must be brought into your routine.

 

You must learn how to master

The two forces of need and desire

So you can develop your potential

To manage the power that you require.

 

Until it's unleashed, true Scorpio

Energy stays deeply hidden.

Everyone knows that criticizing

A Scorpio is strictly forbidden.

 

You might tend to dominate

Relationships, so do be wary.

That your intensity can overwhelm

Others for you is customary.

 

You're not arrogant or self-involved;

Inner struggles you rarely display.

Allowing others to see your weakness

To you would be a cause of dismay.

 

You appear to be easy-going

And have to learn that it is fine

To manifest the intensity

Associated with the sign.

 

Your power and magnetism

Can be for some an inspiration,

As well as your stamina

And your fierce determination.

 

Your mental and physical powers

Of recuperation, along with--of course--

Your creativity,

Make you a guiding force.
