The sign of Scorpio, ruled over by Pluto, is the sign of death, birth and the principle of sex. It also deals with problems of race preservation, reform and rivalry are also part of the Scorpio sing-personality. 

In appearance the Scorpio man is thick set, even squat. He is a giant in strength, and moves with effortless power, and works with tireless energy. The face is heavy, dark and often sneering or saturnine in expression. The jaw protrudes and the mouth is determined, harsh and somewhat coarse. 

The Scorpio woman is more agreeably shaped, although big boned and somewhat heavy. Sometimes the figure is grandly voluptuous. The face is generally a full oval and the mouth sensual, though not without beauty and appeal. 

Both sexes are exceedingly passionate, but very often their physical capabilities are not up to the desires of the mind. Unless there is a little prudence somewhere in the make-up, the Scorpio passions can become degrading. Ill-ness and incapacity have come to many Scorpio natives as a result of their own unreasoning sexual activities.
