One of Scorpio’s<\/a><\/strong> many symbols is a phoenix rising from the ashes. Though those born under this sign are known to be mysterious, possessive and aloof, theirs is also the sign of transformation. Why not harness the energy of this time (the Sun is in Scorpio from October 23 \u2013 November 22) to plumb your own depths and come to grips with some of your darker qualities? Then you can decide which bad characteristics to expel and which naughty ones to expand (and\/or expound) upon!<\/p>\n

1. Turn Jealousy Into Commitment<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re anything like most stingers, jealousy<\/a><\/strong> is an emotion you know well, particularly in matters of the heart. Ask yourself when you feel envious if you\u2019re being unreasonable (say resenting attractive people or worrying that someone else\u2019s gain is your loss) or unfounded (suspecting a cheater when your mate\u2019s never given reason). If so, it\u2019s time to can the coveting. Trust that there\u2019s plenty of success and love and fidelity to go around, and play up another Scorpio characteristic: Dedication. These guys know how to settle down! Adapt their work ethic and loyalty and you, too, can achieve whatever you set your mind to in life and in love!<\/p>\n

2. Choose Transcendence Over Selfishness<\/strong><\/p>\n

We all want our way, and Scorpio is no different. In fact, these self-obsessed thinkers can get so caught up in themselves that they forget to take a breath. That said, they\u2019re also wildly spiritual seekers who want to transcend their baser qualities, including jealousy and selfishness. Find a Scorpio who\u2019s feeling good and doing good, and you\u2019ll find a positivity magnet \u2013 their powers of attraction are unparalleled.<\/p>\n

3. Don\u2019t Mistake Naughty for Bad (or Evil for Acceptable)!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of all the signs, Scorpio is the most comfortable with sex \u2013 and with power. They can go hand in hand, and can be used for good or evil purposes. The trick, then, is knowing the difference. Don\u2019t give into your manipulative tendencies, as lesser-evolved Scorps are known to do. Instead, win people to your side with hard work, loyalty and emotional honesty (all Scorpionic traits). Let them earn your trust, but then give it fully and never lord it over those whom you have any form of power over. Conversely, let your inner devil may care attitude bring a little fun into the mix (and into the bedroom). Unleashing your saucy side can do more than steam up your sex life, it can deepen your connection! And, unlike Scorps, who even in their most evolved form are likely to harbor the desire for revenge (even when they don\u2019t act upon it), don\u2019t give into wrathful feelings when someone does you wrong. The universe will take care of restoring the balance, and if you try, well\u2026 karma<\/a><\/strong> is kind of like a Scorpio, too. She\u2019s known to sting.<\/p>\n
