Sensitive, reserved, zodiac sign Scorpio
On October 24, we have a major switch. We move from the phase of Libra, the sign that is always seeking balance and harmony, to the phase of Scorpio, the sign of extremes. Scorpio tends towards black-and-white thinking. It is all or nothing, right or wrong, total preference or aversion. There are no nuances, only extremes.
The Scorpio is convinced of his own rightness and will not easily change his mind. Furthermore, he craves power. He wants to be the strongest and will not shy away from engaging in or even provoking a power struggle. The Scorpio is also very determined and has a tendency towards fanaticism. This can lead to compulsive and obsessive behavior.
The Australian stamp from 2007 mentions 'passionate' and 'determined'. On the Israeli stamp from 1961, two characteristics of the Scorpion are listed in the same way. At least, I suspect they are characteristics, since I am not proficient in Hebrew.
Reserved, emotional person
The Scorpio may come across as arrogant, but he is not. He is very sensitive and has trouble expressing his feelings. Those feelings are so intense that he cannot put them into words. Many emotions revolve around jealousy and love. Because the Scorpio is so reserved, it seems as if he cannot be 'hurt'. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Although he does not show it, his feelings are easily hurt. He can react vengefully and maliciously to suffering. And forgiving and forgetting are not in the Scorpio's vocabulary. This does not only apply to unpleasant events. Everything related to feelings, including the good things, is etched into his memory. Due to his vulnerability, the Scorpio is cautious when it comes to others. He wants to know what kind of person he is dealing with and also gauges what others think of him. His good intuition helps him with this. The Scorpio himself is difficult to fathom. He shields himself, which can make an indifferent and haughty impression on the outside world.
On the Hungarian stamp (2005), I spot another butterfly and a tree. On the Romanian stamp, there is also an image below the Scorpio symbol. But what is that...?
Scorpio and friendship
The fact that Scorpio is the sign of extremes is also evident in friendships. It is all or nothing. Either he likes you very much or he doesn't like you at all. In the latter case, he is at most polite. Scorpio also does not make friends easily. You must first earn his trust. But once a Scorpio is your friend, he will go through fire for you. Friendships with a Scorpio last a long time. This also has to do with the fact that he has difficulty letting go of people and things.

An intuitive zodiac sign
A Scorpio is always in search of the one true truth. He is intuitive and possesses keen psychological insight. He enjoys scrutinizing his own emotional life and that of others. He can fathom people to their very core. He is often referred to as 'the digger in the darkness of the soul'.
On the Sri Lanka stamp (2007), the position of the stars is indicated by dots. Russia (2004), very originally, opted for die-cut stars.
Scorpio as Ascendant
People with a Scorpio ascendant have a somewhat dark and mysterious aura. They come across as reserved and difficult to approach. This makes them attractive. They possess great self-control. Even when experiencing significant inner turmoil, they remain outwardly very calm. Scorpio ascendants have a strong intuition and often a penetrating gaze. This can sometimes make others feel uncomfortable. They themselves wear armor to avoid being hurt and are very closed off and reserved. They make a determined and strong impression and can act decisively.

Given the characteristics of fanaticism and drive of Scorpio, it is quite possible that many philatelists wear this zodiac sign. Who, oh who? I am curious.
Ah, I recognize everything, except for coming across as arrogant. I often hear from people that I come across as very cheerful.
It amounts to the same thing, because cheerfulness is often the only emotion I show.
But fun to read 😀
I don't know how I manage it, but among my friends/acquaintances, or the people I choose, a large part are Scorpios, the rest are Taurus just like me, Virgo, or Aries... could there be a little bit of truth in it after all?
@Dolores, a lot of truth 🙂 Not everyone will recognize themselves 100% in their zodiac sign, as there is also a distinction to be made between early, middle, and late. But the most specific characteristics always turn out to be correct.
Everything is true. Because the people who see me say that I have piercing eyes. And that makes them uncomfortable. I am a Scorpio myself, and everything written here is true. I am reserved, but I am also the sharpest among people and friends. Scorpios are simply different, and that makes us special. People who see me get a bit shocked because I look older than I am.
It is all true, my boyfriend is a Scorpio and exactly as it is written, that is how I know him too, but as a partner you do look at him differently because we have a very good relationship.
Yes, that about the eyes is true too; sometimes it seems like he looks into my soul, he has such penetrating eyes, and then he always says to me, "Just look at me now without laughing..." but I can't do that. I keep trying, but when he looks right through my heart and soul, I can't help but burst out laughing. He really is a partner for life, and I love him with all my heart. I am a Pisces myself, and that goes fantastically well together.
My girlfriend came up with it because I wasn't very good at talking about my feelings.
Now that it is clear that I am an ascendant Scorpio, she says that she had already suspected that.
Yeah, I don't know either.
Most people do want to talk to me, or suddenly start telling me all sorts of things.
I do often hear that I have a distinctive look.
and that they often can't peel me.
But I've been hearing that since I was a child.
But I will always try to help someone who is weak.
and I think I am not hard but very sensitive soft. me instead of hard and stiff.
They're all so strange haha
