Scorpio (water sign, October 23 to November 21): Frankincense Essential Oil
- Petitgrain: Petitgrain is a great choice to help ease intense emotions, so try it out on the 20th.
- Other Oils that may help: Pink Grapefruit, Clary Sage, Australian Sandalwood, and Spruce. While our eyes guide our conscious physical direction, our 6th (Third Eye/Brow) Chakra sees inward for guidance from our inner connection. The ability to clearly “see” allows us to perceive patterns and possibility. Accessing our inner guidance requires a sense of surrender through self-reflection. Our intuition brings us a clearer perception of our purpose and path through the gifts of inspiration, visualization, and imagination supporting greater spiritual growth and transformation. These oils are a softly intoxicating synergy with fresh and clearing aromas. Use this synergy to quiet the conscious mind and encourage introspection. Helps to connect to a higher state of consciousness while remaining grounded in peace. Promotes the ability to “clearly see” through intuition, insights and clarity. It invites creation energy and inspires possibility.
Scorpio is all about death and rebirth, going deep within, awaiting the promise of regeneration. Just as in November we watch the leaves fall off the trees and see the plants and animals begin their hibernation with the promise of spring, so it is with Scorpios, who feel impelled to explore the darkest winter of the soul before redefining themselves and being reborn. Often, in order for Scorpios to get the impetus to transmute themselves into this new and stronger being, they will investigate hitting rock bottom and going to the pits of their existence in order to find the strength to pull out. Death, rebirth, regeneration and reinvention – as the earth does, so does the Scorpio person.
Scorpios are perceptive and intuitive and thus make good healers (once they have embarked on their own self-healing process). You will find them comfortable being psychotherapists, counselors, psychics, sex therapists, hands-on therapists and body workers of all kinds. Because of the Scorpio’s ability to insightfully see deep within their patient/client, they can encourage the patient to go into their own dark scary psychological and emotional places without fear. They extend a strong sense of support and trust to the client, offering them the light to see into their own personal underworld. Essential oils that can assist the journey into this dark and deep inner world are frankincense, patchouli, elemi, neroli, galbanum, myrrh, juniper, cypress, sandalwood, benzoin, cedarwood and vetiver. These oils not only help the client, but also are great friends to the Scorpio, who loves traveling to the underworld and back, thanks to their ruling planet of Pluto.
Scorpios have a strong will and usually get what they want; although having achieved it, usually find little interest in the continued pursuit of their most frequent obsession. Their determined mind supports a strong survival instinct and they know exactly what will please them in the moment. And often what pleases the Scorpionic nature is sex, another of Pluto’s gifts. Scorpios have a highly developed sense of sensuality and enjoy exploring sexual pleasure with all their senses, although the challenge for the Scorpio is to ground the experience rather than go into sexual overdrive. They need to find a way to accept their vulnerability and open their hearts rather than surrender to the purely physical eroticism of sex. Oils that support and ground sexual awareness and sensual pleasure are rose, neroli, jasmine, ylang ylang, geranium, chamomile, palmarosa, melissa, rosewood, patchouli, lavender and angelica, and thus resonate in the Scorpion frequency. Those born in Scorpio, being in a water sign, love baths in sensual salubrious settings. Adding essential oils to the bath water or to massage oils and body creams can bring a Scorpio into ecstatic realms of heart-felt pleasure. This is their playing ground and a candle lit bathroom, warm scented water, delicate music, delicious wine or chocolate and someone their to caress their body will melt any Scorpio’s heart.
On a rather negative note, Scorpions have a deadly tail that can sting. Scorpios can be possessive, jealous, obsessive, manipulative and controlling. They want their way and will often get it at any cost. Their defensive, destructive side can be annihilating to anyone who crosses them. Oils that can soften the scorpion’s vindictive and cruel nature are sandalwood, clary sage, lavender, cypress, vetiver, rose, geranium, helichrysum, marjoram and chamomile. Essential oils burned in an aroma lamp, spritzed in a spray bottle or added to the wax of a lit candle can change the atmosphere in a room where the Scorpio is venting and change the vibration of the angry climate. Then, after the anger, a Scorpio is prone to bouts of guilt, because in truth, they really regret their destructive streak. Using jasmine, rose, clary sage, nutmeg, juniper, lemon, pine and cypress can often alleviate feelings of guilt.
Scorpios can be intensely loyal friends. For that matter, anything a Scorpio does is intense – and passionate; both for the good and bad. Scorpios never forgets a great kindness done to them, but they also never forget an injury. Both they will repay ten-fold, for nothing is done without payback.
Scorpio rules the regenerative organs including the sexual, reproductive organs. Here Scorpios generate energy and center their passionate natures. Essential oils that support the reproductive organs are clary sage, geranium, melissa, fennel, chamomile, cypress, jasmine, rose and ginger. These oils, mixed with a carrier oil, can be rubbed in a clockwise direction over the belly and around the lower abdomen on a woman for menstrual and menopausal problems. They can be burned in an aroma lamp or used in a bath for the emotional and psycho-spiritual support that Scorpios also like.
Being so passionate, powerful and determined makes Scorpios intense friends. You never quite know what they are thinking until you asked them, and then you’ll get such a direct and honest answer that you may feel blown away. But whether they are loving you or hating you, they are doing it with their entire being. So avoid their stinging tails and know the journey you take with a Scorpio will be deep, dark and powerful.
Scorpio
Scorpios are mysterious and intelligent beings. Many of the other signs have a difficult time reading Scorpios because they usually keep to themselves. It takes a while for a Scorpio to find a genuine, good friend they can open up to and be themselves around, but once they become good friends with someone, they’re loyal to that friend.
Scorpios are passionate, stubborn, loving, and forgiving. They’re known for giving second chances to the people they love the most, but their forgiving nature shouldn’t be taken advantage of because, once they’re done, they’re completely done and there won’t be any turning back. Scorpios are also known for being more fond of romance than the other signs.
Because of this, they’re often attracted to oriental fragrances like ginger, jasmine, and patchouli essential oils, making Sexy diffuser the top diffuser choice for Scorpios. Consisting of a blend of jasmine, lime, and patchouli, this blend of scents allows individuals to feel more energized.
Element: Water
Quality: Fixed
Ruler: Pluto and Mars
Greatest Overall Compatibility: Cancer, Pisces
Best for Marriage and Partnerships: Taurus
Everyone knows Scorpios to be passionate, mysterious and potentially dangerous like the scorpion that depicts it. A Scorpio will stare you down with such intensity like they are seeing deep into your soul. And most of the time, they are. They can know your secrets without you whispering a peep. They will use this to size up a person, but they will never divulge these secrets. They will be a true and loyal friend: perceptive, wise and supportive. They are prideful, brave, curious and fearless. But do not lie to, cheat or hurt a Scorpio, or you will feel their vindictive, temperamental and vengeful side. In being so mysterious, they hold onto many repressed emotions, which increases the intensity of their lashing out when it comes down to it. A Scorpio can find peace when they are able to release pent up emotions, and with a bit of uplifting and soothing to temper out their brooding souls.
Power Essential Oil: Patchouli
Dark, rich, mysterious and intense, just like the Scorpio. Patchouli helps the Scorpio release pent up emotions, and helps temper some of the storm, and puts problems in perspective, helping keep the Scorpio from reaching the boiling point.
Feminine Blend: Mandarin, Lavender and Patchouli
Deep, sweet, almost powdery, with a lingering intensity that trails off into a spicy citrus scent. Improves mood, balances emotions, promotes emotional release.
Unisex Blend: Lime, Black Spruce and Patchouli
Deep, dark, mysterious. Held together by the depths of the patchouli, the black spruce adds a sexy, woodsy element, and the lime is citrusy, but adds a hint of spice as well. Promotes emotional release, improves mood, releases energy and emotional blocks.
Scorpio (October 22—November 21): “Still waters run deep” is Scorpio’s motto… to capture that intense, passionate energy, try clary sage, ylang-ylang, or jasmine.
Essential Oils for Scorpio
Scorpio (24 October- 22 November)
Ruling Planet :- Mars & Pluto
Scorpio is a Water sign. The emotions are heightened for people born under this sign. They can be a very loyal friend or can be a difficult enemy. Scorpio are determined, passionate, intuitive and have a mysterious aura around them.
Due to their highly emotional or sensitive nature they find it difficult to forgive. Essential oils ascribed are Ginger & Patchouli. The “let go” property of the Patchouli will help the Scorpio to handle their emotional burdens and manage stress.
Ginger is warming and strengthening. Using these oils in a diffuser will help the Scorpio to have relaxed ambiance and ease away their emotional pain.
Scorpios love sex (blame Pluto, their planetary ruler, which influences the reproductive organs). Patchouli, jasmine, and neroli are erotic aromas that make them feel seductive. Some oils, such as melissa, rose, and fennel, are said to support reproductive health too. Scorpios also like to explore their psychic abilities (blame Pluto again, can’t resist those mystic vibes), and those skills can be enhanced by cedarwood, myrrh, and mugwort.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21) – Juniper Berry
Juniper berry oil is meant for going deep into the subconscious, territory that Scorpio knows well. Ruled by Pluto, juniper berry also brings unconscious fears to the forefront for healing and release. The scent of juniper is rejuvenating and motivating on the mind and emotional body and grounds the fixed and watery energy of a Scorpio. Place a tiny amount of the oil on your forefingers and thumbs and gently tug on your earlobes for a calming uplift. Juniper berry oil blends well with cypress, lavender, and any citrus essential oil.
