Positions
Eros in Scorpio
With Eros in Scorpio, passion is intense and all-consuming, deeply at home: you are aroused by depth, emotional truth, power, and the total merging of bodies and souls, and your desire wants nothing halfway. The gift is a profound, transformative, magnetically intense eros. The shadow is obsession, jealousy, or desire entangled with control. The growth is intensity that transforms rather than possesses. At your best your passion is deep, honest, and capable of true union.
Lean in — Let your intense desire transform you rather than possess another.
Watch for — Let passion slide into obsession, jealousy, or control.
