Scorpio is always attracted to understanding the cause behind certain behavior. This is not a sign that simply accepts certain actions or situations, but a sign that looks for an emotional explanation for such things.
You will be more deeply drawn to topics that may otherwise seem too heavy to approach, such as politics, global health, or criminal justice.

If you find yourself distrusting someone else’s motivations, try digging deep into your center of intuition and identifying what it is that is making you feel bad about them.
If it feels like someone is prying into your life, it’s more than okay to draw a line in the sand and make sure you only share information that you feel comfortable sharing. Don’t allow this emotional depth and connected energy to give you more than you are comfortable with.
Working with stones such as tiger’s eye and mountain quartz can further protect you against these negative influences.
