    Meaning

    Scorpio is fixed water. Fixed signs hold the heart of each season and sustain things. Its traditional ruler is Mars, which acts most freely here; the planet that rules the opposite sign, Taurus, is in detriment. Medieval medicine assigned it the reproductive organs, the basis of the zodiac-man diagrams in old almanacs.

    Practice

    Workings that suit Scorpio are timed with the Moon or Sun in the sign and opened in the hour of Mars. Contemplate Death as its gate in the tarot.
