What I want to ask everyone is: What is so fascinating about scorpio placements to you? What is it about it that you find so intriguing? This is of course, dependent upon if you find the sign interesting in the first place. I am willing to bet most on here though will feel this way.

Discuss. More or less I am just collecting data here (what else is new).

And, on the other hand, I've known some very bad Scorpios too.

Scorpios, whether you like them or not, or get along with them or not, are often unforgettable.

Scorpio-influenced musicians have powerful lyrics that I really love. I'm a Venus and Pluto Scorpio, though I'm a sun sign Libra. I appreciate the Scorpio placements that I have, even when the intensity can be tough. I'm definitely a Libra 100%, and I do feel very Libra, but I like the potential for depth, intuition, and spirituality that Scorpio offers. (Scorpio is my 12th house).

It's the power and the mystery, for me, as well as the spiritual. A LOT of Scorpios that I've known have been highly intuitive, some to the point of being unsettling, not always in a bad way.

I personally find the "intensity" a whole bunch of nonsense. I suppose its my Earth sign speaking through. The last Scorpion girl who "stared" me down got a earful from me lol Stares don't "sting." Words and actions do.

I interact with the three decans differently. The first I tend to love for its intensity...but they can be so snappy.

The second is the most intriguing to me, but I feel like I am falling down a rabbit hole talking to these people.

The third is where my NN is, and this is the one whose style I really am mesmerized by. I'm thinking about Joni Mitchell (a 3rd decan Scorpio) singing "A Case of You" and how Plutonian, deep, and beautiful that is.

I remember that time you told me you said
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet

Oh I could drink a case of you darling
And I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet...

Scorpios go to extremes, and are very powerful--in either direction, not just evil. I remember one Scorpio that I knew who just had this air of holiness around her (and, indeed, she was a very spiritual person who wanted to be a nun, but was denied because she tried to enter that life at a very young age--had she been older, to my understanding, they would have accepted her). One of my favorite theologians is a Scorpio, come to think of it. I also know two other Scorpios who also have that air about them of powerful goodness.

And, on the other hand, I've known some very bad Scorpios too.

For others, Scorpio is sexy and dangerous.

Taurus takes spirit and learns to appreciate it in a material sense. Scorpio takes matter and learns to appreciate it in a spiritual sense. Scorpio is the primordial "wh*?" of reality which is capable of exploring the non-physical quality of life. In this way it hangs out in places which are hidden to the casual world and acts as a bit of an ambassador between realms.

I think we want to know about Scorpio, because it is in Scorpio's essential nature to "want to know about Scorpio". It is a magnetic pull inward which radiates from the core of the archetype. Part of Scorpio's unique energy is naturally mysterious and leads to hidden treasure (spiritual wisdom). As Scorpio walks down the street, he constantly ponders "Who am I really?" and that energy is so strong it radiates. Those who pass by become caught in the current, turn to look, and ask their self, "Who is that?". Scorpio rules sex, taxes, and death (all the things which rule our psychological structures and determine the success of our species)... What else is there to talk about? LOL

Stated in less floofy terms: I think we discuss Scorpio a lot because we are good little sheep... baaa

=)

I noticed all the attention and hype Scorpio gets too, and when I first become interested in astrology I have to be honest, I was somewhat disappointed that my only Scorpio placement was Pluto. But I think these are just the representations of Scorpio, and like all other signs and people, they come in many variations and these traits can manifest in numerous ways.

The ONLY unreadable person I have ever encountered was a Pisces, and his mystery was exuding within himself and was not a cover that he wears like other Scorpios.

and to me, am not fascinated with Scorpios ... if I'm to write a book and talk for years about a sign it would be Aquarius ... am a huge fan of Aqua, and they always fascinate me

The only reason I give a hoot about anything related to Pluto is because of the Plutonian energy in my chart. I honestly wouldn't care too much about any Scorpio placements if I didn't have that energy. Yet I have a bit of everything in my chart and it seems I research everything not any one placement or sign in particular.
