Sorry, I should have done that. Then scroll down the page to Article 11. I think the whole page is articles from different places. Maybe that article isn't very reputable. :lol:
Wow, nothing on that page fits my wife (a Scorpio, of course).
Nothing. So, there you go. Do with it what you will.
Ah, luckily, my wife doesn't look like that either... :o

...for what its worth... The Irish redhead in no way mitigates the Scorpio.

mitigates...yeah, right!

I always knew I liked you for some reason! :P
Now...when can we get together :D
But I channel my intensity the right way! Slap,slap! :lol:

All I can say is that a Scorpio wife, there seem to be quite a number around here, is worth her weight in gold. I'm sure my husband would agree! :lol: I do seem pretty healthy at least.

I don't see Astrology has a religious or scientific belief but earlier today, and many times in the past, I have been reading the character profiles of various signs and relating them to people that I know very well.

Many of them are pretty accurate...and that is what I find interesting.
My older brother and I are both Leos. I don't know if we have any personality traits in common, but you'd be hard pressed to find two people who have less in common in the way of attitudes and beliefs. (We do both have blue eyes, though.)

James Randi (The Amazing Randi) once taught a college class in which he had the students fill out a questionaire to be used by an astrologer in creating personal profiles. When the profiles were all done, he distributed the results to the students and asked for an evaluation. Virtually all of the students were quite surprised at how very accurate the profiles were.

Then he revealed that they had all received a copy of the same profile.

Make what you will of that.

That idea has crossed my mind on many occasions and I often wondered if anybody had tried it.

Like I said earlier,I don't see myself as a classic example of my sign, though many others do, but it is the most accurate given the options.

that's your sun sign. It's kinda like the head joint.
There is, also, moon, rising, descendant and 12 houses to mitigate it.

Coming soon: Numerology, and what it means to you! :o
