6 Signs That You’re a Total Scorpio

As the zodiac season of ambition and honesty, it’s not surprising that Scorpios include badass celebrities like Katy Perry, Gabrielle Union, and Drake (Scorpios know how to werk).

So through November 21, pay attention to the Scorpios in your life—they are prone to bouts of jealousy. And since their birthdays fall between Halloween and Thanksgiving, they may not be getting all of the attention they deserve during their special season (especially considering the way everyone turned out for Libra season).

So how do you know you’re a real Scorpio? Keep scrolling for 6 telltale signs.

1. People often use the word “intense” to describe you

Your emotions tend to run high and hot—you either love it or hate it, there’s no in-between. Some call it being extreme, but you prefer to think of it as having passion.

2. You’re extremely humorous and witty

You have great observational powers, which is probably why you’re so good at spewing biting comebacks and quippy remarks.

3. You’re extremely driven, which can lead to jealousy

The price of your ambition and unending quest for success means that you’re susceptible to a bout of envy here and there.

4. You’re extremely independent, which can come off as being secretive

Or as you like to call it, “guarded.” You’re not trying to be shady, but you don’t really feel the need to be share your business.

5. You’re a big believer in brutal honesty

You can’t (or maybe won’t) sugarcoat the truth.

6. You’re extremely loyal, sometimes to a fault

Part of the whole jealousy thing means you can often be territorial and overly protective of those close to you—which is great, since making friends is so tough! But, y’know, boundaries can be good too.
