I have a huge interest and curiosity to learn the traits of each zodiac sign and then, I observe those similar characteristics/ traits in people around me. It’s a game that I enjoy playing, which further helps me to understand people rather than to judge them for who they are. Knowing that I am a Scorpio which is a complex sign to have and then to observe similar people who belonged to the same zodiac helped me to analyse and understand the positive and negative aspects of being a Scorpio.
We all are born on a specific date of birth and belong to a particular zodiac sign for a reason. It's not a coincidence but decided based on our soul nature, lessons, and the traits that our soul acquired from the previous life cycle. Now everything has two sides to it so similarly all zodiac signs have few positive characteristics or nature and few negative. The purpose of life is to understand ourselves better and then to work upon balancing both of our positive and negative traits.
Before we begin and discuss all of these characteristics, there is one major trait of the Scorpio which I believe they are born only to get rid and heal from, which can also be termed as one of the life purposes. The life keeps on giving them such situations that help them to heal that particular issue/problem. And no marks for guessing, it is their deep attachment issues.
Scorpios are really attached to the people they love which includes their family, kids, loved ones, friends and also, their passions to such an extent that they can really get obsessed and can submerge themselves in their thoughts. Now this can become really dangerous if we think of it especially when they are not able to achieve that. Losing such people and things can take a toll on their mental health and that’s what life teaches them; to love without attachment. That’s their core lesson. They are not asked to remove their love from them but to remove their attachment. To learn that they can still love unconditionally but also ensuring that they protect themselves and maintain healthy boundaries. So, giving light to their attachment issues is a must which every Scorpio needs to learn. Focusing and working on their heart chakra is beneficial to heal the attachment wounds.
Along with this, comes another negative trait. Since they are bound to learn the life lesson to loosen their attachment from people, their life situations involve people and things leaving them once they start to attach. Because of such recurring situations, they also develop trust issues. After few of such situations, they find it difficult to trust people and often prefer to do everything independently. It becomes really hard for people to prove that they are trustworthy. This is again a wound or situation where they need to learn that those mere situations were meant to occur, and it doesn’t mean that they stop trusting people. Healing their trust issues is again connected to healing their heart chakra blockages which they carry from their past.
When we talk about a positive attribute of the Scorpio: They are honest, like brutally honest but again, it has a negative side to it. They are so brutally honest that while they are speaking, it’s difficult for them to be diplomatic. And in process of honesty, there are chances in which they end up hurting people by sounding rude to them. That’s how people perceive them but for them, they are just true and honest. So, the first step is for them to accept that sometimes it is okay to lie when there is a possibility of hurting someone badly. Being too honest at times is also harmful and therefore, they should give light and be mindful to balance their brutal honesty. For this, they should work upon their Throat chakra to ensure that it knows how to speak subtle but still convey their honest opinion without hurting anyone.
With all the intense emotions that they feel, their entire life teaches them to balance their overly intense emotions as it literally drains them. They are always attracted and connected to light-hearted and fun people so that they could learn to bring that lightness in their lives, to realise that everything is not meant to deal with intensity. And sometimes it is okay not to take the life so seriously. And that’s what people around them teach 🙂 So keep learning in this Earth School!
