The eighth zodiac sign is Scorpio (October 23 to November 21), a water sign. As the name might suggest, Scorpio is traditionally associated with the scorpion, although it is sometimes linked to the phoenix or the snake as well. The constellation Scorpius has been marked by philosophers and astronomers alike for thousands of years. The ancient Babylonians referred to the shape made by the constellation as “the creature with a burning sting”, and in Greek mythology, the scorpion was the creature sent by Artemis and her mother to kill the proud hunter, Orion. Different myths provide different motivations for Artemis’s decision, but once Orion was killed, Zeus raised the scorpion and the hunter into the stars, where they hunt each other for eternity. Today, the colour black is a sophisticated, elegant colour that elevates any event and provides a taste of mysterious luxury. In keeping with Scorpio’s power colour themes of wealth, luxury, and passion, most of the other colours associated with Scorpio are darkly dramatic and effortlessly intriguing. Even warmer colours, like blood reds, crimsons, and maroons capture some of the dazzling sophistication that often accompanies the Scorpio sign. Flowers are dotted, like stars across the night sky.
