When You're On: Spicy Scorpios crave intense situations. You like hanging in small groups where you can ask probing questions and get into people's heads. If you're not in the mood to talk, you'll rock out to live bands in dark, underground clubs. Or you'll take over the VIP section, letting the world see that you've got the power. You don't mind creating a little envy—or mystery. As long as you leave an impression, your mission is accomplished.
When You're Off: When it feels like things are slipping out of your grasp, it's time for Scorpio to take a break. Getting a hobby is a good idea since making something with your own two hands can help you regain a sense of control. With your detailed mind and natural creativity, you could pick up a musical instrument. You need plenty of privacy and like to escape into a quiet space where you can lock the door and be alone. Water rejuvenates you, so a walk around a lake or a hot bath will soothe your soul.
SCORPIO & FRIENDSHIP
Secretive Scorpios take a long
time to open up. The idea of sharing your vulnerabilities frightens
you since one of your deepest fears is that people will use this
personal information against you. You prefer to feel people out first
by listening and asking lots of questions. To shift the spotlight
off youself, you give people plenty of focused attention. This
trait is incredibly charming—after all, most people love to talk
about themselves!
As friendships develop, Scorpios can go to extremes. If you do decide to share youself, it can be an intense and overwhelming experience. At best, you are a loyal friend who will go to the end of the Earth to protect your loves ones. At worst you can be possessive and jealous, scaring people off with your suffocating hold. Learning to be less "all or nothing" in your approach can help Scorpios relax and enjoy friendships that are about fun instead of control.
Trust doesn't come easily to Scorpios, so friends may have to go through a fraternity-style hazing in order to prove your loyalty. Those who make the cut will be treated like family—in a Sopranos sort of way. Scorpios are looking to build a tight inner circle. Respecting your privacy and sharing your little secrets will be the glue that bonds you together.
Scorpios are drawn to mystery, but only if the surprises are small and the risks are calculated. Too much wondering makes you suspicious; not enough bores you. You need smart and competent friends who can help you stay grounded when you start obsessing about all the behind-the-scenes details. Power turns you on and you like to surround youself with VIPs who not only make you look good but can also help make your own success stories come true.
