Hora in Scorpio
One born in the first half of Scorpio will have blood-red eyes, be adventurous in acts, be valorous in battle, wicked, fond of females and be rich.
The first Hora in the eighth sign is a man of terrible form-blazing, fierce, and most dreadful. He delights in injury, and wears a garland of gold. Yearning for battle, he dons his armor which is bound with serpents.
He has prominent teeth and is violent like Death. His limbs and his eyes are red, his hair like numerous swords. He slays living creatures with poison and a sword like Maheshvara angry at Doomsday.
One born in the first Hora of the eighth sign (Scorpio) has fierce, yellow eyes with red corners; he is a handsome assailant who commits terrible deeds and is mighty in battle; a wealthy man with a depraved nature who is restless among women.
If born in the second half of Scorpio, one will have broad, well grown, long and fleshy limbs, will serve a king, will have many debts and many friends and will possess blown eyes (expanded, as a flower).
The second Hora in the eighth sign is a level-standing(?) woman with a black body who has poisonous mouth and hands. She is the cause of (the use of) weapons, battles, diseases, and dangers, as she makes her snakes swell, writhe, and sway.
Her neck is clung to by great serpents proud of their poisonous breath. Her girdle consists of strings of jewels. She is filled with anger, and her teeth are flashing and fearful. Biting her lower lip, she creates tumult and quarrels.
A man born in the second Hora of Scorpio is a bald man whose body is expansive, thick, full grown, and broad and whose red eyes are wide-open; he serves the king and has many friends; but he has many debts also, and is an assailant.
Drekkana in Scorpio
The first Decanate in the eighth sign is a blazing man whose staff is fierce to his enemies. His sword is drawn, his armor is of gold; his flames are fanned by anger. He sports with serpents whose poison is sharp.
If the first drekkan of the sign is rising the eighth house will be to the fore and the influence of Mars will be unadulterated. The native has the potential to earn substantial wealth through business enterprises. He will have fascination for stocks and shares but will not be successful at speculation. He will have to face enmity at a sizable scale leading to massive litigation. The 14th, 22nd and 23rd years of life will be important.
The first decanate of Scorpio ruled by Mars
The First Drekkana of Scorpio represents a beautiful woman, absolutely ravishing, with ornaments, devoid of clothes, dislocated from her place of domicile, arriving from the middle of the ocean to the shore, with serpents all over her feet. This is a female and a serpentine decanate.
As the first decanate of Scorpio is rising the native may have to struggle hard in the early part of life. They work hard and become workaholics. They may amass wealth beyond the dreams of avaricewhen time comes. They have many sources of income. They have the courage to face powerful enemies. The important years in their life are 14, 22, 23, 29, 30, 40, 41 & 45.
The first drekkana of Scorpio rising depicts a reserved, shrewd, secretive and proud disposition. There are two distinct types of people born under this sign, the extremely ignorant and the highly mystical. The former are inquisitive, deceitful, jealous and treacherous while the latter are prudent self-controlled and highly dignified. In many respects this is an unusual sign as it produces natives of one extreme or the other. The weakest people born under this influence are those who have no control over their criminal senses while the strongest are the mystical and intelligent.
First Drekkana (i°-10°).—The monetary affairs are fraught with uncertainty but when favourable combinations obtain, the native will amass considerable quantity of money. Generally, there may be two distinct sources of income. Business enterprises, journalism and industry will make the native earn money. Extensive litigation and powerful enemies will also rise in his path. Speculation will attract him particularly though much success is not shown in it. He must avoid over-reaching himself in his efforts. Stocks, shares and industry will have a special attraction for him. The important years will be 14th, 22nd, 23rd, 29th, 30th, 40th, 41st and 45th.
1st: quarrelsome, tall stature, cruel temperament.
A man born in the first Drekkana of the eighth sign (Scorpio) is light-skinned and has a thick, broad body and wide, red eyes; he is firm and furious in battle, fond of fighting, a fierce man who is an expert with a sword.
If birth be in the first drekkana of Scorpio, the native will be fair in complexion, firm in disposition, fierce in temperament, interested in battle, broad-eyed, fat and broad physiques and fond of promoting quarrels.
The second Decanate in Scorpio is a woman with loose hair who is bound with snakes. She is robbed by thieves in the forest. With black body and completely naked she runs swiftly from a bandit, calling out terribly and shrilly.
If the second drekkan is rising the influence of Mars will be tempered with that of Jupiter and the twelfth house will be to the fore. The bad qualities of Scorpio will predominate and the native will not be fortunate, unless Jupiter is powerful in the chart. He will be troubled by enemies especially by female enemies. He will face some very dangerous situations in life and will have to bear loss and sorrow. He will be closely linked with hospitals etc. and may be ailing throughout his life. He may also be confined or his liberty severely restricted. The role of Jupiter for this drekkan is of importance. If Jupiter is powerful the evil indications may be mitigated. In such a case the native will have intense spiritual or philosophic development and may have psychic experiences. The 24th, 29th, 31st, 36th and 42nd years of life will be important.
The second decanate of Scorpio ruled by Jupiter
The middle Drekkana of Scorpio represents a woman, big bellied, with a penchant for house and husband's happiness, with serpents all over her body, with a body which resembles a pot and a tortoise. This is a serpentine and female decanate.
As the second decanate of Scorpio is rising, the native becomes a dreamer whose dreams are not fulfilled. In fiscal matters they are not clever. They spend money when they have & adjust when they do not have. The important years in their life are 25, 32 41,49, 57
and 63. They have to incorporate shrewdness and practical insight.
When the 2nd drekkana of Scorpio ascends it accentuates either of the extremes mentioned above. Fate is usually unfortunate and often disastrous. If the native is born into a wretched environment he rarely succeeds in raising himself above mediocrity. The natives of this position seldom produce their own opportunities and their life is simply in the hands of chance.
Second Drekkana (llo-20°). — In matters of finance, the subject will not be too prudent. He will be a dreamer but sometimes the dreams may become reality. He will also come under peculiar
conditions. He may thrive well in imaginative occupations. Much depends upon the position of Jupiter in the horoscope. When he has money he will be extravagant and when he does not have it, he will adjust himself to circumstances. Important years will be 25th, 32nd, 41st, 49th, 57th and 63rd.
2nd: fond of food & drinks, kind hearted, learned, good symmdrical physique, enjoys others wealth.
One born in the second Drekkana (of Scorpio) is a handsome man with darting eyes and a body pale like gold; his food and his drink are spicy; he is clever and eloquent and possesses the righteousness (dharma) of the oldest of men; fond of acquisitions, he gains possession of the wealth of others.
One will be fond of purified food, be skilful, will have rolling eyes, be gold-coloured in complexion, splendorous, endowed with others wealth, virtuous and skilful in arts, if the Ascendant be in the second drekkana of Scorpio.
The last Decanate in the eighth sign is a cruel man wearing a golden suit of armor. He is clever in seeking treasure in a hole. He wishes to follow a vow that is broken. He knows how to use weapons, but is tormented, having been robbed by his companions.
If the third drekkan rises, the influence of the Moon will also have to be taken into account and the fourth house will be to the fore. A powerful Moon will make the native inclined to be emotional and keen on attachments. Therefore to an extent the selfish and brutish side of the sign will be mellowed. The native will be given to study and practice of the occult, magic or the bizarre. If the Moon and the fourth house are weak, the native will have a difficult time with his mother and senior female members of his family. The 41st, 44th, 49th and 52nd years of life will be important.
The third decanate of Scorpio ruled by Moon
The last Drekkana of Scorpio represents a being with a human face and a lion's body from neck downwards, with a flattened nose, face as big as a tortoise, frightening foxes, deers, pigs in the forest, protecting the sandalwood tree infested forest. This is a quadruped & a male decanate Since the third decanate for Scorpio is rising the native may get some legacies. They study things in advance and are always cautious. They are quite meticulous when it comes
to fiscal matters. They do not trust people. This becomes a negative quality in life. The important years in their life are 22, 25, 33, 36, 41, 44, 49 & 52.
The 3rd Drekkana of Scorpio rising awakens the sensitive nature of the sign and provides a keen desire for emotional attachment thus reducing the selfishness inherent in Scorpio's influence. However this position of Scorpio increases the jealous tendencies of the native. He will have to be extremely careful of this otherwise it may ruin his life.
Third Drekkana (21°-30°).—The subject will get some good properties. Prudence and caution will mark all his dealings in matters of money. He rarely trusts people. He will lose considerable money through robbery and swindling. Important years will be 22nd, 25th, 33rd, 36th, 41st, 44th, 49th and 52nd.
3rd: courageous, sadistic, easily angered, loves his parents.
In the third (Drekkana of Scorpio) is born a man having neither beard nor body-hair; one whose eyes are yellow and brown, whose belly is enormous, and whose arms and chest are stout; together with his brothers he is a vicious assailant; he has no sons, but his group is increased by others.
One born in the third drekkana of Scorpio will be devoid of beard, moustache etc., be torturous, will have tawny eyes and large belly, be an assailant, will incur loss of brothers and will possess long hands and brave heart.
In the first saptamsa of Scorpio is born a man with a glowing complexion whose eyes are yellow and red, whose mouth curves, and whose hair is brown and has rough edges; being addicted to murder, obstructions, lies, and divisions, he is not honoured by good men.
In the second is born one whose body is fat, ruddy, noble, and broad, whose shoulders and nose have symmetrical halves, whose brows are large, and whose eyes are wide; a man of exalted deeds, he knows painting, the meaning of the sciences, and the fine arts.

One born in the fifth (saptamsa) has a thin belly, but a thick, broad chest, handsome nose and eyes, a red lower lip, and a face like a bull’s; he is engaged in service, a teacher who is not very clever and is fond of gambling.
In the sixth is born a powerful man the strength of whose body is noble with its well-being; his eyes are red like a lotus, and his nose is slender and elevated; addicted to good dharma, he is wise and gentle and speaks little.
(In the seventh) is born a man with a big head whose hair and eyes, are yellow like gold, whose nose is long, whose hips are wide, whose eyes are variegated, and whose mouth and lips are rough; being of firm courage and strength, he desires battle.

It may indicate a vengeful nature, although those under this influence generally live anything but boring Jives. Excitement, or "living- on-the-edge", may be common- place at times. This is an extremely spiritual sign, thus the higher nature of Scorpio can lead to the path of transcendence.

Scorpio is a fixed water sign. The control issue is one of emotions (of others and their own). The subtle element of water is associated with emotion, therefore the centripetal energy pattern of Scorpio will pull in the emotions of others. Whether they are conscious of it or not, Scorpio will manipulate the emotions of others. This is not something they are trying to do; they just cannot help themselves, it is automatic. Water will merge with things, soak them up, so to speak. Scorpio has the ability to subliminally merge with another person, read them and even feel their secret desires and longings on a subliminal level. Once this information is garnered, Scorpio has a certain power over the other person. That is why this sign has a reputation of intrigue, manipulation and
destruction. This uncanny ability to sum someone up with a glance is an arresting power. Often, I have noticed their eyes have a penetrating, burning quality.
SCORPIO: This sign is ruled by Mars and it rules urinary and sexual organs, anus, generative organs, bladder, nasal and pelvic bones. If the planet Mars is weak and Scorpio is occupied by its enemy or aspect by malefic planet then, the native born under the influence of this sign suffers from the diseases of piles, urinary-track infections, boils, and operations in the parts ruled by this sign. It is violent, negative, watery and fruitful sign and signifies severe sentiments. If Mars is strong then it makes a person is well built and enjoys good health, and if Mars is in weak state and the Ascendant or Mars afflicted by malefic planets then it gives dreadful appearance and weak and unpleasant body constitution. Red coral is known as the gem for this sign.
SCORPIO: It is a watery sign ruled by Mars, the significator of energy, and it is weak. Ketu, the planet of secrecy and intuition, is exalted in this sign and the Moon, the significator of change and
tenderness, is debilitated. These factors render the Scorpios intuitive and rigid. If Scorpio rises as the ascendant, the Ishta Devata (form of god for worshipping and meditation) would be Lord Shiva. This sign rules outer sexual organs, scrotum, rectum, anus, nasal organs and pelvic bones. If Mars, as lord of the sixth house, is strong the Scorpios are of short stature, well built and enjoy good health. Otherwise, they have a sickly constitution and suffer from piles, fissure, urinary infections, boils, and operations, etc., in the parts ruled by Scorpio.
Scorpio is a fixed, negative, rajasic, kapha, female, mute, violent, fruitful and multiped sign and signifies severe sentiments. Depending on the influences on the ascendant, the sign Scorpio usually renders their natives determined, disciplined, self-restrained, fearless, persevering, energetic,
intense, dynamic, decisive, self-centered, straightforward and tough or very sensitive, introverted, secretive, stubborn and ready to defend themselves. Depending upon the strength of the Sun and Jupiter, Scorpios become administrators, advocates, chemists, detectives, officers in the Armed Forces, policemen, politicians, surgeons, traders in metals and chemicals, etc. The influence of other planets on the tenth, first or second houses changes the professional pursuits
Scorpio (Vrishchika): Scorpio is ruled by Mars. Moon is debilitated in this sign. Persons born in under this sign have charming physique, well shaped thighs and feet. They posses a magnetism in their personality. They are determined, ambitious and very clear about their goals in their life. They are secretive by nature. Their plans and strategies to achieve their goals are generally hidden and not known to everybody. Profession best suit to them are surgery, research, investigation, defense, detective, entrepreneurs, journalists, scientific, chemist and archeologist. Those born under Scorpio or Vrishchika sign have youthful appearance, a generous disposition and fierce eyes. Scorpio are fickle minded and love much excitement. Scorpio are inclined to sensual things in reality while they will not hesitate to philosophise upon the merits of controlling sensual pleasures. Even females born in Scorpio sign will have more of masculine tendencies. They are good correspondents and invite from among people throughout the world. They can become expert musicians if they care to practice the art. They are proficient in fine arts, dancing and the like and no doubt they have a philosophic disposition. They set at naught conventional habits and customs. They vehemently uphold their own views but nevertheless will not clash with those holding opposite ones.
Constitution of Scorpio will be hot and they are liable to suffer from piles after their 30th year. They are silent and dignified and never speak before weighing each and every word. Scorpio are good conversationalists as well as writers and often rely too much on their own intelligence. Married life of Scorpio may not be quite happy not only due to temperamental differences but also due to illness affecting the generative system of the partner, unless there are other compensating combinations. Scorpio, the Scorpion
A Scorpion, it can't be denied, is a rather ominous symbol, with its pincers and fearsome sting. Scorpions have a reputation for being dangerous, and are also rather elusive creatures; hiding under rocks or in other dark crevices. Some of the deeper, darker, mysterious and secret facets of life (such as death, sex and the occult) are associated with the 8th sign of the zodiac.
Scorpio belongs to the Fixed Cross and the Feminine Water Triplicity, and is traditionally ruled by Mars, though modern western astrologers tend to consider Pluto to be the ruler of Scorpio. Physiologically Scorpio is associated with the sexual organs and excretory system, and also sometimes the nose.
This sign is sometimes associated with the symbol of an eagle, which is regarded as representing the higher, nobler expression of Scorpio in which the person has risen above the more basic carnal desires and instincts which can be so powerfully evoked in this sign, and has thereby achieved power and dominion.
Scorpio represents emotional intensity, which might be expressed as great concentration and focus. Obviously these attributes can be useful, and Scorpio can achieve great things through this capacity for intense commitment and determination. This same quality, however, can make for a type of obsessive or fanatical preoccupation with an idea or feeling, so that it warps and distorts reality (especially where fear or paranoia are driving this obsessive focus).
This sign (like the 8th House) is associated with “shared resources”, as opposed to the idea of “personal resources” embodied in the opposite sign Taurus (and the 2nd House). As the sign following Libra (relationship), Scorpio represents the tangible fruits and results of a union or partnership, which can range from jealousy and psychological vulnerability (in the form of fear of betrayal), to the increased wealth and security that comes with the support of a successful partnership.
Scorpio: "I am mysterious, troubled, secretive and a psychological expert. I am interested in sex and occult. I am dramatic with my emotions. My life undergoes turbulent transformations. I am carefree about money matters and persevering in my interests. I have an unusual home life. I am deeply romantic, creative and energetic but find it hard to maintain discipline. I seek comfortable, luxury loving and sensuous partners. I enjoy research. My attitude is one of caring. I take pride in my worldly status. I am choosy about friendships and seek beauty in my spiritual life."
Vrischika Lagna /Scorpio Ascendant: These people can be somewhat sarcastic and self-willed, though they may also become proficient in spiritual or occult arts, as well as more scientific
concerns.Though sensualists by nature, they are also good at controlling their instincts and
disciplining themselves. They love excitement and a challenge; they keep their own counsel and are not easily influenced by others.
Scorpio Horoscope: Those born under this Ascendant have youthful appearance, a generous disposition and fierce eyes. They are fickle-minded and love much excitement. They are inclined to sensual things in reality while they will not hesitate to talk about controlling sensual pleasures. Females born under this sign have more masculine nature. They are good correspondents and have friends from around the world. They are proficient in fine arts like music, dancing and the like. They uphold their views and ideals but they do not clash with others over their views. Their constitution will be hot and they likely to suffer from piles in middle age. They are very silent and dignified. Married life would not be that much happy as there would be temperamental differences with partner.
Bhargavi Samhita: A native born in Scorpio lagna likes to quarrel, performs lustful activities, is courageous and very thoughtful. He gains all kinds of knowledge.
Scorpio Ascendant (Rising Sign) description according to Phala Deepika: The person with Scorpio Ascendant at birth, will have rounded thighs and knees. His chest will be broad and eyes expansive. He will suffer from diseases from an early age. He will beseperated from his parents and preceptor. He will indulge In cruel actions and will be honoured by the king.

LAGNA SCORPIO
The native with Scorpio lagna is strengthening any personality weaknesses that may have occurred through lack of development in the past as well as working out many limiting results of their karmas. This makes for a highly vulnerable personality that is so aware of its every weakness. The need to develop these undeveloped areas makes for a generally unstable, crisis orientated, and at times, greatly pained personality. The natives tend to be introverted or self-absorbed, looking for some strength and security in their tumultuous selves. The natives are very sensitive as long as there is any attachment left in their personalities. At best they are able to make incredible growth in their lives as they have so much strength and energy available to overcome their liabilities.
The evolutionary goal is to develop the opposing sign of Taurus. Scorpio needs to develop stability, and consistency in their lives with regards to those things that they find worthwhile. The concrete things they learn to develop and maintain are a reflection of their own inner security and recognized worth. Partnerships tend to be with those that are more practical, grounded or secure, with those that somehow teach the native these things, or to those whom the native by attaching themselves to finds some worthiness in their activities and themselves. There is also the need to be validated by their partners, if they themselves recognize their value, then their partners will do so as well. If they themselves do not recognize their innate value, then their partners are likely to devalue them, but this also gives the opportunity for the native to validate himself or herself.
Present time RAHU AND KETU
KETU IN THE 8TH HOUSE, RAHU IN THE 2ND HOUSE: Ketu in the 8th house indicates a native, who in recent past lives, has benefited largely from other peoples resources, generally through marriage partners, but sometimes through business partners. Rahu in the 2nd house now indicates the need for the native to develop his or her own resources. The result of this nodal placement is that the native is insecure with their financial potential and it generally takes them some time to make any savings.
The result of having been dependent upon others' resources is a strong need for the native to find value within themselves, as having been dependent they have not felt as valuable since their physical productivity would not have been high. The necessary development of Rahu in the 2nd house, therefore, is for the native to recognize their inherent value. Usually this is projected outwards, onto their possessions, family, etc., which in the end will desert them or become lost or defective. The native's only option becomes to look inside for their inherent worth after all external factors have failed. It is only in rare cases that the native's material projections are realized. In those cases these material realizations are a reflection of recognizing their inherent value.
The 2nd house, being the house of the family, is the house of inherent value, the value that comes from our family, name, etc. This being good gives a sense of self-worth and integrity, if otherwise the native must struggle to validate herself. Often, there is trouble with the family the native grows up in
that results in the native feeling devalued. The native may also become fanatical about their family they themselves have created in an effort to validate themselves, in which case Rahu will eventually separate them from their family.
KETU IN GEMINI, RAHU IN SAGITTARIUS: Ketu in Gemini indicates a native who in recent past lives has created security through the use of their intellect. Through experimentation, study, and thought the native has managed to create a paradigm that allows for life to take place in a safe and secure manner. In this lifetime, Ketu causes the native to experience doubts about what exactly they know. When confronted by information that is contrary to what they believe they know, there is initial resistance, as new information is threatening to their security paradigm. After some time to think, however, they experience doubts about their knowledge, or understanding, that creates an identity crisis over what they know. They eventual result of this is a deepening of their knowledge, but also the understanding that they have learned so much that all they know for sure is that they do not know anything.
Rahu in Sagittarius indicates that the native must define a belief system or philosophy that takes care of those areas that they are unable to understand, or create rationality for. The doubting of their information, through Ketu, forces them to develop faith, and intuition through Rahu. The doubting of their information indicated by Ketu in Gemini also forces them to accept the information given by others, or teachers, indicated by Rahu in Sagittarius. However, as long as they doubt their own information, there will be a corresponding doubt of others' information as well. The key is do develop the faith and understanding that allows them to believe that, though, they will never know everything, they will know what they need to fulfill their role at a given moment.
Ketu in Gemini generally suffers from indecisiveness. This is a result of Ketu waiting for that last bit of information to close the case, but the last bit never comes, there is always room for doubt, in fact it is the nature of the intellectual mind to doubt. In the end they must learn to act on faith, the need for which is indicated by Rahu in Sagittarius.
KETU/MOON: The influence of Ketu on the Moon (with rasi aspect) indicates a deeper, probing, mentality that generally suffers discontentment in the world. When Ketu influences the Moon, the mentality is not so superficial as to be able to simply enjoy the pleasures of the world. The mind is always looking deeper, beneath the surface, and thus there is always a nagging discontent and questioning. This creates an introverted mindset, which in a spiritual nativity is conducive to spiritual practices. In other nativities, this may cause introversions and frustrations that may have violent or explosive eruptions. Generally it is found that natives with Ketu influencing the Moon have an interest in psychology.
Another noticeable trait of Ketu's influence to the Moon is to make the native very emotionally controlled and rigid. When they are in a negative mood, there is not a lot anyone can do to cheer them up, they pretty much have to suffer through the mood, after which they will get up feeling just fine. In fact the depths of their moods rarely correlate to what brought the mood upon them. There will usually be associated sub-conscious and past life feelings stirred up by that which triggers the mood. After the mood, the native will appear as balanced and controlled as usual, but one of the reasons the moods are so severe is that the natives do not flow with, and reveal, their feelings, until a buildup has occurred, and then the deep mood. These natives also have an ability to cheer anyone out of a mood; this is due to their ability to not let any feelings come through except those that they want to reveal.
In recent past lives, those with Ketu influencing the Moon have established a level of security and safety in the world by controlling their reactions to the many painful things in life. Controlling is one
thing, feeling is another, so there is usually some pent-up pain in the native that is released when a mood is triggered. The developmental goal is to purge the mind from subconscious pain, remorse, regret, etc. and to develop a spiritualized mentality that truly remains at peace amidst the varying conditions and reactions of life, rather than a mentality that controls the feelings and reactions. KETU/SATURN: The influence of Ketu on Saturn (with rasi aspect) indicates a nativity that has
experienced security as a result of being an authority in some manner or field. In this life, Ketu's goal is to free the native from the need of being an authority figure in order to feel secure. Ketu does this through confrontations with those that cause the native to doubt their capacity as an authority figure. These doubts result in the native having the only choice of learning to be happy and secure without being an authority figure.
RAHU/MOON: The influence of Rahu on the Moon (with rasi aspect) results in some weakness in the mind that is in need of strengthening. This is generally the result of the mind not being centered in the heart, instead being centered externally or remaining unfocused. When the mind is centered externally there is discontent and depression that comes from the lack of fulfillment the world has to offer. When the mind remains unfocused there is a higher degree of psychic disorders, and/or a lack of clarity and concentration. Rahu influencing the Moon may give heightened psychic sensitivity but usually this is also accompanied by aweakness that make the native more sensitive to psychic disorders.
Other weakness of the mind caused by Rahu may be various types of mental derangement, but for any serious difficulties other malefic influences must also be indicated. In the horoscopes of natives with strong spiritual tendencies, Rahu influencing the Moon may give strong attunement.
The discontent that Rahu casts upon the Moon is also a cause of addictions. Addictions also serve to make the mind unfocused, which results again in psychic disorders. Rahu may also give a tendency to live in the imagination, in the realm of fantasy, wishes and hopes, which ultimately lead to discontent and depression because in the end the native still lives in the real world.
In female natives the conjunction of the Moon with Rahu creates a strong feminine magnetism, and a strong emotional transparency that is attractive to men. However, the woman herself feels ungrounded and insecure and is usually not emotionally healthy enough to enjoy a relationship. The need for the native, when Rahu is influencing the Moon is to learn to keep the mind anchored in the heart, the one place of true satisfaction for it. With natives having spiritual tendencies this is an eventual possibility.
RAHU/SATURN: The influence of Rahu on Saturn (with rasi aspect) indicates a native that has difficulty in developing and maintaining security and stability. Those things the native feels attached to, or hopes to acquire security through are often taken away. Outer instability generally results in nerve-wracking conditions, and there is generally some inner instability and tension that makes the experiences of life less enjoyable. The only thing the native can really do to combat this is develop a dispassionate and detached mentality, which is particularly hard for them.
Rahu influencing Saturn also generally indicates a lack of consistent, long-term focus in life. The native will usually have a happier life once they are focused and secure in their path.
Rahu and Saturn are both separating influences, the house that they are both influencing will usually be an area where the native experiences complete or lengthy separations.
Vedic Astrology Signs: Scorpio
Scorpio is ruled by Mars reflecting upon himself. The nature of Mars is to bring strength and for Scorpio, Mars brings strength to the emotions. Scorpio is a water
sign which is related to the emotions and it’s also a fixed sign which wants to stabilize. Somehow Mars tries to stabilize the watery emotions through Scorpio. Of course, this is very difficult because the emotions are always changing and those who we have invested in emotionally are also always changing. So Scorpio tends to worry about those things they are emotionally involved in and try to control those situations and people. They are notorious for being able to penetrate deeply into the emotions of others and know exactly how to reach into their psyche and keep them under control, but of course this only lasts for so long.
Eventually others get tired of this emotional power struggle and Scorpio winds up losing the war. When this happens, the dreaded emotional loss feels like a loss of self entirely, so Scorpio needs to learn how to manage their emotions rather than try to control them or the emotions of others. Learning to truly be strong emotionally means not being afraid of their change and their fluidity. Through the nature of Scorpio, we all learn how to concentrate our emotional power on something more than just feeling good and that’s the real genius of Scorpio.
Once Scorpio makes an emotional commitment to something, they are tenacious and will not let go until they feel they’ve exhausted that. Scorpio needs to learn a more calm and easy approach to life and learn to find contentment in the things they’ve done. These are traits associated with the sign of Taurus. Scorpio tends to mistake emotional intensity and difficulty for growth. They need to learn that sometimes growth can happen in a very easy way. It is not necessarily something that’s full of upheaval and drama with everyone’s guts on the floor.
Once Scorpio matures, they can be a great advocate for personal evolution for others and
themselves. You will often see Scorpio people helping others strengthen their emotional responses. This is a sign that is excellent for counselors and doing deep transformational work where others are afraid to enter.

This is considered as the most feared sign among all the zodiac signs in Vedic Astrology as well as in Western and other forms of Astrology. And this fear starts taking its roots right from the symbol of this sign which is a Scorpio and which is full of poison. In Vedic Astrology, Scorpio is considered as the eighth zodiac sign among the twelve zodiac signs which are taken into consideration for making astrological calculations based on Vedic Astrology. The fourth pada of the Nakshatra Vishakha and all four padas of the Nakshatras Anuradha and Jyeshtha are ruled by this sign called Scorpio. And as this sign rules the fourth pada of Jyeshtha Nakshatra, it becomes important to study in a horoscope as the placement of the Moon in the fourth pada of Jyeshtha Nakshatra leads to the formation of the defect called Gandmool Dosh.
Scorpio is a watery sign and it is ruled by Mars. The Moon which is considered to be associated with care and tenderness, get debilitated in this sign which means that out of all the twelve zodiac signs, the Moon is considered as the weakest when placed in this sign.
