key words/phrases/essence:

She is at once the Scorpion, the Eagle, the Dove & the Phoenix Rising from the Ashes. She is alchemy, sacred sexuality, kundalini, mystery, transformation, healing, power, control, emotional intimacy, merging, money, shared resources, wealth, inheritances, darkness, the shadows, the psyche, death, rebirth, reincarnation, near-death experiences, carnal desires, erotic play, sensual dance, boudoir fun, clandestine affairs & soul-searing lust. A fixed water sign, her emotions run deep & intense. She is epic, all-or-nothing love, bordering on obsession, betrayal, jealousy, envy, loyalty & devotion. She desires to possess her lover completely. With influences of both Mars & Pluto, there is both fire & water, with the resultant steam! Scorpio is the sexiest, most sensual sign. She is the sex goddess, the dominatrix, saying ‘come hither’. She is mysterious, sultry, seductive, erotic, smoldering, passionate, magnetic, intense, deep, dark & focused. She seeks the truest essence & is not remotely interested in the merely superficial. She is extraordinarily intuitive & esoteric, with deep insight. Never take her lightly. She is direct, sharp, controlling, probing, penetrating, perceptive, cunning, determined, persevering & sometimes vengeful. She reveals what is hidden underneath & purges it. She loves to solve mysteries. Her primary motivation is power, but She doesn’t mind being behind the scenes. She is one who goes the distance.
