This is the sign of extremes. Individuals with their Sun in Scorpio are variously described as powerful, weak, independent, clinging, passionate, and cold. Clearly, you are a bundle of contradictions encompassing the best and worst in human nature.

With your Sun in Scorpio, the key to your personality is intensity. You do nothing by half-measures. Magnetic, emotional, capable of exerting tremendous force, your strength is hidden in the depths. In the sign of Scorpio the element of water is fixed, an image that suggests an iceberg or a bottomless well. You may appear impassive, sometimes unapproachable, but turbulent passions are always roiling underneath, invisible on the surface.

As an individual with your Sun in Scorpio, you live on many levels. While you present a calm and smiling face to the world, you’re ferociously persistent and extremely strong-willed. You’re also flexible when it comes to working out solutions. When thwarted, you don’t just accept defeat. You’re extremely agile when it comes to sidestepping obstacles and figuring out a dozen new ways to get to your goal. In a wonderful paradox, flexibility is one of your most effective methods of controlling situations. Scorpio is the most misunderstood sign in the zodiac because of its complications and convolutions. Basically, you always have a hidden agenda. With a Sun in Scorpio, you’re someone of incredible depth and brilliance, and your inner psyche is labyrinth of wheels within wheels, boxes within boxes. Even when you seem to be at ease and relaxed, you are always evaluating, figuring out your moves, working out strategy. Much of this has to do with control, which is what you are all about. For Scorpio to be out of control is to be in psychic danger. Nothing is worse for you than to feel swept away by outside forces. When you control you are safe.

Having your Sun in Scorpio, the complexity of your mind makes it difficult for you to skim the surface; you must uncover what lies beneath. Whether you are studying a new subject, learning a language, hunting down a fact, or just reading for amusement, there is a quality of penetration in the way your mind works.

For the Sun in Scorpio individual, your finest attributes—and your worst—are revealed in relationships. With Scorpio, relationships are usually complicated. This is not surprising when you consider that you can be simultaneously generous and affectionate, violent and unpredictable; in your sunniest moods there is always a hint of an imminent change in the weather. You are deeply loyal to friends but are also intensely jealous and possessive. You cannot tolerate the thought that anyone you love might have a yearning, or even a simple yen, for anyone else. With you, it is usually all or nothing at all. Moderation, restraint, and certainly casual are not in your emotional vocabulary.

The Inner You with your Sun in Scorpio

As an individual with your Sun in Scorpio, you have great strength, determination, and willpower. But no matter how calm and cool you appear on the outside, you’ve got a well of seething emotions underneath. For the most part, though, you keep your intensity under control by channeling it into useful activities. You’re a high achiever, and you seem to “get” things in a flash—with powerful psychic feelings you’ve learned to trust. Your instincts tell you that you’re destined to do something important and you’re not going to let yourself fail along the way. When you latch on to a new opportunity, you explore it in great depth before going ahead. Deep inside you is a gladiator spirit, and if you channel this fighting energy into positive goals (your continuing lesson), you will always be one of life’s great winners. At times, however, you feel you are a lone warrior in a harsh world. You’re a complex person who can’t always express how you feel, but one thing is certain: The things you want, you want badly.

The sign position of the Sun indicates how we seek to express ourselves, develop ourselves, fulfill ourselves, and assert our will and power to shape our environment. The house position indicates the area of life in which we choose to focus the energy of our Sun sign and fulfill the purpose which it represents.

Sun in the 5th House

With your Sun in the 5th House, your focus tends to be on the creative side of life. Your disposition is generally outward and extroverted. You are likely to be concerned with how you can express yourself in and to the world. Your primary mode of self-expression is likely to be creativity.

As an individual with your Sun in the 5th House, that which you create becomes an extension of yourself. Consequently, you generally become busy extending yourself in the world and increasing your personal interaction and personal exposure through creative engagement. Your goal in this is usually to obtain recognition and self-validation. Therefore, your well-being generally depends upon the response of others to your activities and to the image that you create through your persona. This need for recognition and validation may not be expressed directly.  Often, you project yourself through your creations and you interpret the world’s reactions to your creations personally. Therefore, you are likely to be heavily engaged in the process of creation and in interaction with what you have created.

Insecurities

Having your Sun in the 5th House, without a sense of your own independent self-worth or even being, you are totally dependent on recognition and appreciation from others for self-esteem and validation. However, being without an essential sense of self-worth, you are never satisfied with the recognition and validation that you receive. You attach yourself to your “creations” in order to suck self-awareness and being from them. This may manifest as an obsessive concern with or possessiveness toward your children, constantly promoting that to which you lay a claim of authorship, neurotic concern over how you are being perceived and how you are presenting yourself, taking undue risks in order to gain recognition, plotting against others in a battle for recognition and authority, or being too self-absorbed in your personality and self-expressions.

Focus of Your Self-Identity

With your Sun in the 5th House, you tend to identify with what you have created. To the extent that your persona is a creation of your psyche, you may identify with the external projection of your persona. However, you are likely to gain your sense of identity and self-worth from what you have made. If you identify your selfhood with those external objects that you have created, then you are vulnerable to your self-worth being affected by what happens to those objects and offspring and by how they are received and treated by the world. If you identify with the creative force within you that has allowed you to create and manifest yourself in the world, then you will be less dependent on externals. Aware of your creative potential, you know that you and your creations are separate and that, no matter what happens to your creatures, you still has the capacity to create. It is this creative capacity, then, that defines for you who you are.
