The best conversation shifts attention from ourselves, our own feelings and our own desire to shine in imparting knowledge and wisdom, to other people's thoughts, feelings and experience. Knowledge in this situation is best used for pleasure and not personal aggrandisement.

Some people born today are such perfectionists and so argumentative it rather drives others round the bend. You say the air is chilly. They say it's rather warm and the/re going to open a window. You say that the Russian Czar, Peter the Great, kept his unfaithful mistress's chopped off and pickled head in his bedroom and October 27 argues that no, it was the Czarina's lover's head. Actually it was both. Their bedroom was packed with pickled heads.
The trouble is that October 27, bitten with the bug of pointing out mistakes, couldn't bite back a correction if he or she tried. This star can't easily exist in a matey constellation because it must explain so many things to all the shimmering companions that they simply shimmer off.
Some make good teachers, historians and other cloistered academics, their noses - and this date has a long one - so far in the air, that ordinary mortals are fortunately left alone. But the habit of correction also comes out in older people born on this date. And teenagers. Someone might say: ‘I was such a skinny child.' October 27 might reply: ‘Oh no. The kids at school always called you Porker.' Teenagers feel the need to correct their Penile' parents out of a sense of across-the-generations superiority.
Fortunately Scorpios are excellent at finding mates for life, so there's someone at home who loves and admires them and it doesn't matter that everybody else wishes they would stay there. Fortunately, again, many escape this extreme and simply delight in a good memory. They will never give spaghetti to a child who has disliked it all its life. Nor roses to a woman who prefers lilies. Nor ties to a man who prefers sports books. These romantics are thoughtful companions valued for their knowledge, which never impinges, and for their interest in others, which is supportive, not corrective.
You are highly sexed and extremely romantic, and love and intimacy play a major role in your life. However, your emotional nature is so deep and complex that your love life can be as turbulent as it is passionate and intense.
You’re quite capable of displaying a poignant vulnerability one moment and then becoming exceedingly possessive, demanding, and jealous the next. You are more likely than other scorpions to idealize your partner and place him or her on a pedestal. Then, if things turn sour and you are forced to face up to reality, you can be severely hurt and disappointed.
Your dreamy demeanor and soothing approach to lovemaking do little to hide your steamy sexuality. However, the boiling passions simmering just beneath the surface are driven more by emotional needs than physical ones.
Everything you do, whether in the bedroom or elsewhere, is guided by your intuition. You crave the complete soul-mate package with your one true love, and nothing less will suffice. When you find it, you surrender totally to the ardor that consumes and transforms both you and your partner.
Scorpios are extremely creative and like to make things to decorate the autumn house and presents for Christmas. To make a Moss and Flower Basket: Line the bottom of a basket, with dip at front and handle, with plastic. Using mossing wire, cover outside of the basket with sphagnum moss. Fill with clusters of dried hydrangea - painted here and mere with kid's pink or red paint, or any colour you wish. Use other dried flowers, small roses, small pieces of moss. Fill spaces with pine cones, dried seedheads and cinnamon sticks. Tie a wired ribbon bow round handle. Add drops of essential oil for fragrance.
You like unraveling mysteries and may be drawn to a lover who comes off as secretive and slightly dangerous. Just one glance from those sultry, enthralling bedroom eyes, and you can hardly wait to dive into precarious waters. You are turned on by the very idea of exploring some of the darker, more intense aspects of your own sexuality.
The best conversation shifts attention from ourselves, our own feelings and our own desire to shine in imparting knowledge and wisdom, to other people's thoughts, feelings and experience. Knowledge in this situation is best used for pleasure and not personal aggrandisement.
You possess an illusive quality that surrounds you with an enchanting mystique. Instinct and intuition give you an eerie insight into people and situations that borders on the psychic. However, it is your active imagination and your love of all things romantic, mysterious, and melodramatic that define your distinctive lifestyle.
