Scorpio  +  Dog = Octopus

The octopus animal species has keen eyesight and excellent sense of touch. Did you know that the male octopus mates by using a specialized arm called a hectocotylus to transfer packets of sperm from the penis into the female's mantle cavity? The male then dies within a few months of mating. Octopus do exhibit flexible behaviors and are among the most intelligent of all invertebrates. Much like the animal species, Octopus Spirits are ambitious and prefer to deal with the facts rather than emotions. Many Octopuses often feel as if they don't belong or fit in. They prefer genuine, small groups or merely being alone to unwind and share ideals. Octopus spirits must learn to balance their complex personalities. Many of them possess deep, fixed reserves of inner strength, but still get nervous and uncertain at the slightest "change" of plans. At times, Octopus spirits can become a bit of a people pleaser or simply unable to receive criticism the way they are capable of dishing it out. Since socializing is not their forte, the friends of Octopuses have to be unique, honest, and full of character. They need confidence that encourages the energy of Octopus spirits to thrive in a helpful, positive way instead of being negative or volatile.

Octopus experience a rather contradictory persona in their careers/professions. They can be loyal and honest, yet secretive and power hungry; passive while temperamental; have the advantage but cry foul play if someone else has an advantage over them. Octopus spirits are hardest on themselves and value work ethic above all else. Personal security is very important and they should choose roles/jobs that play to their strengths. Octopuses are capable of solving complex puzzles, researching, investigating, and succeeding at things that are uncomfortable to most. They understand and embrace the role of pain, death, and disappoint in everyday life and have a real gift when it comes to helping others evolve. Many of them will engage in humanitarian projects in order to feel inner completion as they take on many of life's obstacles.

Octopus spirits are very picky when it comes to relationships. Love takes a while to manifest for these highly independent individuals. It takes time for an Octopus spirit to trust and express their true feelings. They need a partner who is able to understand their need to be alone at times. Someone who has a bit of a mystery to their personality and can help the Octopus spirit to love and accept themselves is ideal. They desire someone who is emotionally stable, confident, strong, and self-sufficient. The perfect relationship would be one that encourages an Octopus spirit to work through their inner fears and challanges by dealing with their feelings rather than becoming overwhelmed by them. Few will be able to accurately understand this intricate soul, yet the reward of loving one can be quite rewarding.
