OCTOBER 23, 1982
Cusp of Scorpio & Libra, so that's why there are elements of both here.

       

There is an elegance to your personality, a charm & good nature that people respond to. You have a talent for expressing your opinions in an apt & amusing way. You have a strong will, though unless you are crossed or thwarted; you are not quick to show it. In general, you are cooperative & friendly though you prefer to work alone at your own pace. This is especially true in your creative endeavors. In love, your feelings run deep & you tend to be cautious. You don't commit yourself easily because you fear being hurt or rejected.

With your being in the first decanate of Scorpio, you have a hypnotic intensity to your personality. You are loyal & stead-fast, which others can sense they can depend on you. You will stand by a lover long after another in the same situation would have given up. Once you give up, there is often no turning back. You have fixed opinions, but also a scientific mind that will examine ideas & arrive at a new opinion should the facts warrant it. You are drawn to the mysterious & the occult, but may keep this a secret. Should you use it, you also have a great reserve of self discipline. Sometimes you let things slide by because you don't care enough to exert yourself.

A Scorpio is a feminine water sign & fixed. This means that you are more self reserved, quiet & strong through inner strength; not forceful. You are also intuitive & in touch with how you feel. Fixed signs are also resistant to change, perfectionists & the like. Scorpio is the sign of extremes. Scorpio people are often described as powerful yet weak, independent yet clingy, passionate yet cold. Scorpios are often a bundle of walking contradiction, emcompassing the best & worst in human nature. The key to your personality is intensity. Magnetic, emotional, capable of exerting tremendous force, your strength is hidden in your depths. Picture an iceburg or a bottomless well, where on the the surface you seem impassive, sometimes unapproachable, but turbulent passions are always roiling underneath, invisible on the surface. You need to have a positive avenue of expression, either through love or career, or else your feelings can turn inward & become destructive. Scorpios often live at a high pitch of emotion. Often, the negative aspects of this sign manifest as brooding, jealousy, resentment & ever vengefulness. The positive (in the opposite direction) are your unswerving devotion once your emotions are engaged. The Scorpion energy is legend with it's drive & endurance. Above all, you seek a deeper meaning & purpose.

You are often philosophical & may become interested in religion or the occult. You are blessed with an understanding of the human heart & a great awareness of life's secrets. All water signs tend to be psychic, but Scorpio is much more accepting & intrigued by this possibility. The complexity of your mind often makes it difficult for you to just skim the surface of anything. Once you want to know something (or someone), you want to know everything about it. Your relationships are usually complicated. This isn't too surprising as you can be simultaneously generous, affectionate, violent & unpredictable. Even in your sunniest moods, there is always a hint of impending change. You are deeply loyal, but you can be intensely jealous & possessive. You have a hard time dealing with the idea that someone you love could have a yearning or even a small yen for someone else. With you, it is either all or nothing at all. Moderation & restraint are not familiar to your vocabulary.

You never forget kindness & repay it generously, but you also do not forgive an injury & can wait years to inflict revenge. You can make a very dangerous enemy. You are also a fierce competitor, though most often don't notice you riding their heels until it is too late. You gather information, names, references, facts for use at a later date & you know how to use that information when the situation arrives. You are adaptable, able to quickly channel your energy into whatever you wish. Even with confronted with disaster, you will try to turn it into a success. Though throughout all this power, your gentle nature is shown to those you love. Scorpios can be the most generous, loving, kind & loyal people you will ever meet. Passionate about everything, there is no such thing as a pastel Scorpio. You are an individual painted in vivid colors.

With a moon in Capricorn, this makes you more determined, responsible, disciplined, patient & committed. It also causes you to be more rigid, pessimistic, opinionated, materialistic & over exacting.

You have a Libra acsendant. Libra is the most pleasing & harmonious of ascendants. You have a natural charm, grace & poise about you. You are quite a social creature whois quite content in a genial atmosphere. You revel in having a good time where ever you are. You are full of hope for the future & no matter what disappointments today may bring. You fantasize about a happy tomorrow. Of course, you are not like this all the time. One of your problems is that you can easily be thrown into despair & depression. Particularly by down hearted or discouraging people. Libra may be the sign of balance, but it doesn't take much to push them off center. You were born with a great sense of fairness. You hate to see injustice of any form. You are deeply upset by cruelty, violence, bloodshed & strife. To you, life should be serene & content but, above all it must be fair.

You often gravitate towards creative people or endeavors, but sometimes your flair & artistic eye lies dormant or unused because you dislike hard work and prefer to find an easier way. You don't have to seek out the spot light however, it just seems to shine on you. You don't have trouble with success & luck often finds Libra moons through a partner, mate or close association. You like to travel & love to meet new people. You happily throw yourself into a situation that promises excitement. The problem is you don't have a whole lot of perseverance, which means many great things go unfinished. You also have trouble making up your mind. This is due to an underlying fear of risk. You like to be with someone. You don’t prefer the single life. You like the idea of stability & someone who will always be around for you. You probably won't have many children but, you will revel & delight in the ones you do.
