Your self control could be tested today by someone pushing your buttons. Scorpios can be passionate and headstrong, but that doesn’t have to mean engaging in every battle. Weighing the consequences before hastily reacting can help you keep your cool. If nothing else, it could give you time to come up with a clever comeback.

Today’s Soul Advice: Imagine you are on a deserted island and need to cross the sea. You could walk the entire island and exhaust yourself before resigning to swim for it or make a raft and float away. Regardless, you have to face that ocean. Pain is a lot like that. You can avoid it as much as possible but that’ll just exhaust you and in the end you have to face it. Brave it as soon as you’re ready. You can overcome.
