Scorpio

Vrishchika is ruled by Mars (in its watery, secretive aspect) and embodies the principle of transformation through intensity. Scorpio natives feel deeply, hold secrets, regenerate from crises, and bring formidable willpower to anything they commit to. The sign is associated with the underworld, occult, healing through depth, and the principle of death-and-rebirth. Ketu is sometimes considered exalted here. The sign rules the genitals and the deeper blood — Scorpio's wounds and gifts both come from the body's most private regions.
