2. Scorpios always value honesty.
Scorpios hate superficial and artificial people. They want to connect with people who have their own drives and passions, and who strive to get as much out of life as they do.

Famous Scorpios include Bill Gates, the hard-working head of Microsoft, who has been crowned the richest person in the world multiple times over. If that’s not a target for other Scorpios to reach, we’re not sure what is! Apple boss Tim Cook is also a Scorpio – there’s a pattern emerging here!
11. Don’t get on Scorpio’s bad side!
