Sun in Scorpio

Sun represents who you truly are deep down, your willpower and what gives you energy. In Scorpio, it expresses itself with intensity and depth, all or nothing.

In Scorpio — a fixed water sign, ruled by Mars — the Sun is peregrine, a guest in the deep and closed waters that the warrior governs in this his nocturnal dwelling. The kingly fire plunges and thickens: the brilliance withdraws to the depths, intense and secret, a heat that burns beneath the surface without showing itself. It inclines to a penetrating and reserved authority, one that sees what is hidden, that neither yields nor forgets, that exercises power through firm will rather than display. It gives strength of purpose, courage before fear and death, a capacity to regenerate what seemed lost. Vitality is tenacious, concentrated, turned toward what transforms. Dignity is sought in mastery of oneself and of one’s own depths. The danger dwells in the distrust that scrutinises everything, in the rancour that is hoarded, in the buried flame that becomes venom instead of light and burns from within the one who contains it.
