One astrological sign that could be lauded for its show of passion in whatever it undertakes is surely the Scorpio. Highly emotional, concealing it with a hard exterior, it is intuitive like its water sign counterparts, Cancer and Pisces. The men and women born under the Scorpio Zodiac sign will work hard silently, rarely showing their moves before they accomplish their goals. They are passionate lovers, a sign closely associated with sex. Born with a mysterious air, this water sign is sure to entice anyone they meet. They detest dishonesty in all forms and mistrust seems to dominate their characters when they meet new people. However, this sign is a secret keeper. They keep their friends close and their enemies even closer.
A Scorpio, male or female, is brave and determined, displaying leadership qualities wherever they go. This makes it easier for them to guide a crowd and make plenty of friends. Those whose date of birth fall in this Zodiac sign are very emotional but their mode of expression is different from that of other water signs. They are dedicated and passionate towards their partners when they decide to commit in a relationship. However, one should be wary of falling in the wrong foot with a Scorpion because they would strike hard without a warning. This astrological sign is goal oriented, and hence, capable task managers in an organization. They could be big in their egos and hence, command respect at all times.
