It’s usually shown as a scorpion, but sometimes it’s linked to a snake or eagle. Scorpio is a fixed, negative sign. This sign includes people who are born between 23 October and 21 November.
History
In Greek mythology, the scorpion symbol of Scorpio is associated with the story of Orion, where a scorpion stung him and killed him. This zodiac sign has also appeared in movies and TV, such as the Scorpio Killer in the 1971 film Dirty Harry and the main character in the 1973 spy film Scorpio.
