You are seductive, mysterious, and full of depth. Scorpio, no one will quite understand you as much as you know yourself.

They forget that while you are secretive, you also are a part of the water family and are deeply entrenched in your emotions. Let’s not forget that some people are just better at concealing their emotions than others. Yet, the connection that you do form lasts a lifetime and is full of intimacy and unwavering trust.
