Scorpio Health and Relaxation

Have you ever noticed that Scorpios eat lashings of garlic? They may say they like the taste, but actually, they are warding off werewolves and avoiding vampires. Scorpios are sensationally superstitious. Some of them always put their left socks on first, or turn round three times and touch their toes if they put the sugar on their cereal before they pour on the milk. Does that sound obsessive? It is! In addition, it can be excessive, sometimes, when it can lead to trouble.

Once a Scorpio gets a bee in their bonnet that can be it. The obsession will be overpowering, and the whole health can suffer. Those ever-present, ever-ready emotions can work to the good or the bad. However, if they are channelled in negative directions, they can bring about the downfall of the Scorpio, who can hammer away at that one obsession until it begins to hammer away at them.

Most Scorpios seem to spend a lot of time at special clinics, being treated for some form of sexually transmitted disease or another. If they do not have a dose of VD, they will have thrush, cystitis or something similarly problematic connected with the genital organs and this is the area of the body ruled by sexy old Scorpio, as you might have guessed.

The health of Scorpios is also affected by their polarity with Taurus, so they can have problems with their throats too. They can also have troubles with piles and other ailments associated with their bowels, and these will be accentuated if the Scorpio has a strong natal link with Virgo, the sign of inner cleanliness.

Nevertheless, mostly, a Scorpio’s physical health will revolve around the sexual organs, while the mental health will be at the mercy of any obsession that grips the Scorpio. Some members of this sign can become fixated about their health, and a few of them have actually developed anorexia nervosa, because they had such overpowering obsessions about their figures. Problems like these are all caused by the build-up of those strong, secret, subterranean powers in the Scorpio.

This is a sign that needs to relax, especially with all that intensity and passion smouldering away inside. Positive Scorpios can relax with a bit of a booze-up with their friends, but negative Scorpios should watch they do not have too much of the hard stuff, because it can unleash torrents of destructive emotions. Alcohol helps to thaw the Plutonian ice on the surface of a Scorpio’s character, releasing some things that might be better left in cold storage!

Ideally, a Scorpio should relax in quiet and meditative locations. For instance, a Scorpio, with a Capricorn for company, could parade along the peaks of Snowdonia, burrow through the Brecon Beacons, or ramble by a river. This is a Water sign; after all, so watery places will be very attractive.

We must not forget the stupendously strong sexual urge as if Scorpios would let us! They can often unwind by going to cinemas that show blue movies, or perhaps by seeing something just slightly sleazy and of course, they can relax very well indeed by spending a whole weekend in bed, with a couple of crates of claret for company, either with the one they love or with someone they are paying to be there. Sex really is a very important outlet for most Scorpios.

Scorpios who are strongly Martian will enjoy a good rough and tumble on the rugby field, and all the exploits you would expect an Arian to indulge in. For example, pastimes like potholing will appeal to Scorpios, because they will like the element of risk involved. They also love delving deep into things, and may take classes in psychology, Ancient Egypt, or reincarnation, a subject many Scorpios find fascinating perhaps because it serves as an awful warning that the worst sins and excesses they commit in this life may backfire on them in the next.
