Scorpio can be best characterized by its intense, passionate, emotional
nature. Scorpio has two symbols, the scorpion and the eagle. This is
because Scorpio often experiences the polarity of the lowest of the
low, and the highest of the high.
When a Scorpio learns a
lesson, they learn it at the very core of their being. There may be
lessons in jealousy, envy, right use of power, and the transformation
called death.
Scorpios make excellent detectives, knowing who is
telling the truth or hiding a secret. At the same time, a Scorpio with
a healthy attitude can keep your secret. They help you through issues
of emotional abuse, listen non-judgmentally to your dark thoughts, or
counsel you through the grieving process.
Many jokes have been
made about Scorpio's sexual prowess. Intense energy combined with deep
emotion certainly lends itself to the birth cycle!

Pluto
Pluto is the Ruling Planet of Scorpio, meaning that its energy reflects the same type of energy as the Zodiac sign. Pluto is one of the planets that make astrologers shudder because it represents our deepest darkest subconsious, and is considered somewhat malefic.
Dark red in color and consisting mostly of ice, Pluto exasperates
astronomers as well. Its orbit is eccentric; instead of traveling in a
circle like the other planets, its orbit is oval, and is sometimes
closer to the sun than Neptune. And is it a planet or not? While we've
been taught for decades that Pluto is our planet farthest from the Sun,
it was recently declassified and is now considered an asteroid instead!
Astrologers continue to consider it a planet when doing interpretation.
According to mooncatsastrology.com,
Pluto is "raw energy... cataclysm, disaster and annihilation, as well
as ecstasy, monetary windfalls, revolution, rebirth and renewal. He
represents what we both fear and desire - the cycle of life, death and
rebirth, the secrets of the universe, the occult mysteries, the
explosive interplays between men and women, the miracles of life."

The Eighth House, Life, Death & Money
The Eighth House, ruled by Scorpio, represents birth, death, deep emotional connection, fears, and inheritances. The astrology joke is that the eighth house rules sex, taxes, and death - a fertile ground for fears and obsessions!
The Eighth House is also where we merge with something greater than
ourselves. In sex, you merge with another such that two becomes one.
With taxes, you merge with the collective unconscious of what USA
readers might call the great Uncle Sam tax god. In death, you go beyond
all boundaries and merge with Oneness. In a relationship, the eighth
house talks about how you share your body, your time, your possessions,
and so forth with your partner.

Top Five Astro-Events for November
By Wolfstar, NeptuneCafe
1. The Taurus Full Moon on the 2nd opposes the Sun, Ceres and Mercury in Scorpio, emphasizing financial security issues and how to share the burdens. Resolving conflicts over money can lead to renewed intimacy with your significant other. Interactions between parents and children are highlighted, with increased communication favoring the resolution of longstanding care-taking problems.
2. Transiting Chiron trines the U.S. Mars on the 11th, around which time Team Obama may have its Afghanistan plan ready. Watch for favorable developments in other conflict zones, such as Iran, Iraq and North Korea. Chiron in Aquarius also favors a public health option, which may become viable as this aspect becomes exact.
3. Jupiter and Pallas are trine on the 14th, but in effect from the 11th through the New Moon on the 16th. Jupiter and Pallas in the social signs of Aquarius and Libra bring diverse friends and acquaintances together in a variety of engaging activities. This combination is especially favorable for healing old wounds, vision quests, and finding value and meaning in difficult situations.
4. Saturn and Pluto square each other on the 15th, a powerful outer planet dynamic in effect all month. In its most positive expression, this combination leads to constructive, fundamental changes in the way government and business function. Saturn and Pluto are also aligned with the U.S. Venus, indicating intense diplomatic efforts and increased interest in regulating financial markets, such as hedge funds.
5. Mars in Leo conjoins the U.S. Midheaven on the 25th, marking major military deployments and headline incidents of violence. Mars aspects Pluto on the 30th, perhaps indicating some large financial cuts. Due to its retrograde cycle, Mars remains near the U.S. Midheaven and Obama's Leo Sun through May 2010, pointing to growing U.S. influence and leadership in the global community.
