Welcome to Scorpio season…enter if you dare!
Syd Robinson, Astrologer, Who Do the Stars Say You Are? “Scorpios are known for their enthusiasm, intensity, and eternal curiosity about what’s beneath the surface,” says the author of “Scorpio. These people aren’t interested in small talk and may appear somewhat reserved with others; they tend to be protective, Especially when opening up for the first time and building trust with new friends.”
Birthdays starting in October. From November 23 to November 21, these intense, moody and capricious water signs are very easy to buy. “When choosing a gift for a Scorpio loved one,” says Robinson, “I would recommend something a little mysterious. This sign tends to lean toward the supernatural, and it shouldn’t come as a surprise that they were born at the height of terror!”
Next, with Robinson’s help and Scorpio’s input in our own lives, we’ve picked out 21 gift ideas for the Scorpio in your life.

Like their water signs Pisces and Cancer, Scorpios tend to get lost in their feelings, and journaling can help them sort through complex emotions.
