Scorpio - Oct 24 to Nov 21



Scorpio is the eighth astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Scorpius. In western astrology, the sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. In Astrology, Scorpio is considered an introvert, "feminine" negative sign. It is also considered a water sign, and is one of four fixed signs.
Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered Scorpio individuals. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun enters Scorpio around October 23-24 and exits around November 21-22. Under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently there roughly from November 16 through December 15. People born on these juncture dates should have an astrological chart drawn to determine which sign the sun was in at the time of their birth.
