Scorpio (Greek: “Skorpios”, Latin: “Scorpio”) is the eighth astrological sign in the Zodiac, which spans the zodiac between the 210th and 239th degree of celestial longitude. Generally, the Sun transits this area of the zodiac between October 23 and November 21 each year (sometimes the dates vary slightly). Individuals born during these dates, whilst the Sun is within this sign are called Scorpios.
