Scorpio is the eighth Sign of the Zodiac and corresponds with the sexual and reproductive organs, bladder, anus and processes of elimination. Many people who were born when the Sun was in Scorpio - October 24 to November 22 - have a magnetic sex appeal and sex drive.

However, if there is too much planetary emphasis in Scorpio at the time of birth, the person is likely to have problems with sex and in some cases it can bring definite susceptibility to troubles involving the physical organs of reproduction. When there are any serious planetary afflictions to Scorpio, the person may contract one of the venereal diseases but being born with the Sun in this sign does not necessarily indicate this type of danger. Uranus and Neptune are both renowned for creating the desire to be free from the restrictions associated with protocol and tradition. It is not surprising that sexual freedom and permissiveness have reached an all-time high because Neptune has recently completed its 14-year transit through Scorpio and Uranus is now in that sign - a cycle which began in 1974 and will continue until 1981.

Emphasis on all aspects of sex usually is intensified in people born at the particular hour when Scorpio was on the ascendant - regardless of their date of birth.
