Scorpio personality
Scorpio begins at Frost's Descent, 210° of solar longitude. The West calls it a water sign; in BaZi terms it is the Rabbit branch, wood that drinks water and sends roots down. Quiet on the surface and intense underneath, you finish what you decide to do. You read the hidden grain of people and situations well.
Scorpio in love
You want a deep, all-in relationship, and once trust forms you are very loyal. Hurts stay with you for a long time, so talk them out right away.
Scorpio at work
Research, investigation, psychology, finance and medicine suit you: work where the answer only appears when you dig.
What Scorpio should watch
When suspicion grows, you tend to reach a verdict alone. The Rabbit branch is where roots tangle, so when your thoughts knot up, say them out loud to someone you trust.

Your sign is set by the 30° stretch of ecliptic longitude the Sun was crossing at your birth. The cusps (the mid-month solar terms such as the spring equinox) shift by about a day from year to year, so if you were born on a cusp day, add your birth time too. The sign-to-branch pairing follows the names in the traditional Chinese table of twelve stations, whose boundaries sit about 15° off the Western signs. Read it for fun.
