DESCRIPTION:
Scorpio - from Taos Winds' new Zodiac series/CD. Very magical and powerful visuals and music. The music and imagery are both created with this sign's aspects in mind to help enhance the positive traits and bring to light the negative traits, thus giving the individual power to overcome the detrimental negative aspects and augment the positive in themselves.

Scorpio (October 24 and November 22) is ruled by Pluto (some say Mars), and is one of the water signs.

Being ruled by either Pluto or Mars creates quite the contradiction since the two are fairly opposite of each other. Mars people are very self reliant, self expressive and assertive. Pluto people are quite the opposite, they tend to believe very strongly in powers beyond themselves. And because of that, they are more apt to seek out signs before they will make a move. Both have positive aspects, and both have their upsides and of course downsides. Personally from all of the Scorpios I have known in my life, I would have to say they are more likely to believe in things like fate, destiny, intuition, etc., which would make me lean more towards the idea of Pluto being the ruling planet. Even with all of that being said, most Scorpios I have known are fairly assertive and self expressive. But, they are very driven by the ideas of soul-mates, connections to the more mystical powers in life and many more of the spiritual ideals. But again, it is just hard to really pin down the "one side or the other" personality type of a Scorpio. So maybe, just maybe, they are ruled by both to one degree or another. (and that my friends is what keeps Scorpios mysterious)

Scorpio (♏)is the eighth astrological sign in the Zodiac and is ruled by Pluto (or Mars). It spans the 210–240th degree of the zodiac, between 207.25 and 234.75 degree of celestial longitude. Under the tropic zodiac, the sun transits this area on average between October 24 and November 22, and under the sidereal zodiac, the sun currently transits the constellation of Scorpius from approximately November 16 to December 15. Depending on which zodiac system one uses, an individual born under the influence of Scorpio may be called a Scorpio or a Scorpion. The symbol of the scorpion is based on Scorpius, a giant scorpion sent by Gaia to kill Orion.

Scorpio is one of the three zodiac water signs, the others being Cancer and Pisces.
