Saturn in Scorpio

This Saturn-in-Scorpio page and the entire website are excerpted from You and the Universe, a handmade, individualized fine art book on astrology, mythology and astronomy through which the recipient's complete astrological reading is woven.

Souls born with Saturn in Scorpio encounter many emotional lessons that bring pain and suffering until they learn to master and control their strong desire nature. This pain that you cause yourself will be the purifier of your emotional temperament. If you persist in rigid and unyielding (crystallized) attitudes, it could result in crystallizations in the body such as arthritis, gallstones, and arteriosclerosis. You're resourceful, shrewd, secretive, occasionally withdrawn, and, (depending on afflictions to Saturn, if any), vindictive, destructive, ruthless, and jealous. Your strong lust for power will be supported or blocked according to Saturn's aspects. You may be fascinated by the occult, and have the ability to get beneath the surface of existing conditions so as to use them to your best advantage.
