Love match: Scorpio and =)

A love match between Scorpio and a =) should move forward slowly, they need time getting to know each other on a deep, significant level or else they run the risk of jumping in too far, too fast. This relationship could be over before either partner even realises it's started if they're not careful! Their patience will be very richly rewarded. =) thrives on change, on the new and the exciting and on the power of positive thought. Scorpio loves intimacy and always seeks to strengthen emotional ties. Early in the relationship, =) could feel hemmed in by Scorpio's rapt attention and high expectations for love. If Scorpio can control their emotions, these two are in for satisfaction and excitement.

Both Scorpio and =) see each day as an adventure (or in Scorpio's case, a compelling mystery) and as an endless opportunity to explore, to probe and to learn. While =) may get fed up with Scorpio's stubbornness and inflexibility, Scorpio could be thinking their =) lover is just a little too hot-headed. They'll enjoy learning together, and travel could be very beneficial for this pair. Their relationship is one of movement and action.

Pluto and Mars rule Scorpio, and =) is ruled by Jupiter. Mars is the God of War, opening the door to Scorpio's determined, courageous character. Mars, when combined with Pluto, represents rebirth and renewal. Jupiter focuses on philosophy, optimism, luck and travel. These planetary attributes - of growth, expansion and masculine energy - can combine to create a sustainable relationship of mutual admiration.


Scorpio is a Water Sign, and =) is a Fire Sign. =) is the spontaneous partner, heading wherever their whim leads them, while Scorpio's motives are more subdued, less easy to read. Even if they do misinterpret each other's motivations, crisis can be averted. If these love mates agree that their relationship is significant, their devotion and affection will see them through.

Scorpio is a Fixed Sign, and =) is a Mutable Sign. =) gets the urge to jump around from project to project, so Scorpio's stamina is vital for the realisation of any task undertaken by this pair. Lucky for this Scorpion partner, =) notices all the work their mates put in - and they definitely show their appreciation when they know it's needed. Scorpio can be stubborn, exacting and demanding, so this mate needs to give their ttarius love their personal space if this relationship is to succeed.

What's the best thing about the Scorpio- =) relationship? The security and flexibility they can give one another. Once they open up and learn to appreciate their different philosophies on love and life, these two have the potential for steamy relations, deep connections and heartfelt respect. As long as they communicate and celebrate their differences, this will be a passionate relationship.
