Saturn in Scorpio

Saturn in the fixed, water sign of Scorpio shows that you are determined and purposeful. Your personality is magnetic and your humor is stinging. You can do well in finance, the occult or any area which requires good repartee. You demand much of yourself and others and your perfectionist nature has little patience with laziness or unwillingness to work. You have tremendous willpower, energy and intensity, but need to learn to react more calmly to life and its problems. Your approach is subtle, thorough, persistent and determined. You have a great drive for success and a strong ego. You are proud and resourceful, but you carry a deep resentment when you feel that someone has been unjust with you. Your desires are very strong, you can love and hate deeply. With challenging aspects you can be scheming, jealous and revengeful. Saturn naturally rules the 8th house, so there is an association with financial and sexual issues. The individual will probably have to confront internal struggles relating to sexual expression and feelings of inadequacy on either a physical and/or an emotional level. If you have a poor mental attitude, you can be unforgiving, secretive and afraid of dependency. This position can lead to gallstones, constipation or arthritic conditions.
