Meaning & usage

The Scorpio glyph is one of the twelve zodiac symbols astrologers have used for over two thousand years. Scorpio covers birthdays from 23 October – 21 November and is a Water sign pictured as the Scorpion. Intense, private and all-or-nothing — Scorpio is the sign of depth and transformation, ruled by Pluto and Mars.

The glyph itself is a small pictogram of that creature, simplified over centuries into the form fonts use today. Copy it for birthday posts, horoscope pages, tattoo designs and astrology charts.
