Roughly a metric buttload (what? it’s a measurement!) of planets are currently moving through Scorpio, and people can’t stop talking about it. Of course, it doesn’t take much to get people talking about Scorpio. We’re fascinated by his power, his intensity, his compelling promises of sex and tax refunds. But some have an axe to grind with Scorpio. We accuse him of emotional foul play, may even be a little afraid of him.
Don’t fear Scorpio, my friends. There’s a method to his madness. Scorpio is like a building inspector who probes the eaves of your roof with a pointy little tool to check for termite damage. His job is to find out where you’re weak.
I don’t know your particular Scorpio situation, so I don’t know his reasons. He may be probing out of altruism, to help you become a better person. He may be probing out of spite. Or he may be probing because he’d really, really like to trust you – but first, he has to make sure you’re not weak, because a weak person can’t be trusted. If push comes to shove, a weak person will sell you out faster than Fredo Corleone sold out his own brother to Hyman Roth. And then Scorpio would have to go to all the trouble to get a boat and find someone to take you out fishing on Lake Tahoe….
Okay, so maybe you could be a little afraid of Scorpio.
Anyway, the probing. Scorpio probes, and pushes your buttons. His reasons for doing so notwithstanding, that’s his job description.
Your job, on the other hand, is to address your psychic termite damage and make yourself stronger. It would be a nice touch to thank the Scorpio inspector for pointing out your structural weakness so that you could address them. And needless to say, you should never, ever take sides against the family.
