Create the Perfect Home for a Scorpio

Scorpio season is here - bringing with it the energy of intensity, passion, transformation and mystery. As the sun sits in the 8th sign of the zodiac, let’s celebrate our intense and enigmatic Scorpio friends and explore what “home” means to them. 

Astrology has long been a source of inspiration for understanding our personalities, and how the position of the sun at the time of a person’s birth, impacts their personalities and preferences. For the Scorpio, home is a sanctuary where mystery and intimacy meet rich textures and bold colors - reflecting their complex nature. 

Rich Colors and Textures 

Scorpios are very aesthetic. They love rich colors and textures - think jewel tones and velour fabrics - that evoke passion, mystery, and carry with them emotional depth. 

Private Homes, Secret Nooks

Known for being private and introspective, Scorpios favor homes where they can seclude themselves to a certain extent. Inside the home, Scorpios love private spaces where they can hide away with good book or cozy nap. They’re drawn to homes with secret hiding spaces or architectural details that allow them to create a private retreat. 

Personalization  

Scorpios love personalized details that reflect their passions and interests. Adding personalized details - meaningful quotes, artwork, display of collections - help a Scorpio thrive in their environment. 

Ambient Lighting

Beyond rich colors and textures, lighting is paramount for a Scorpio in creating an aesthetic and ambient environment. Small details play a huge role in lighting ambience - from the tone of the bulb (warm tones are preferred over the stark, bright reflection of an LED bulb), to dimmer switches, well-placed lamps, and the addition of candles. 

Water Elements 

Scorpio is a water sign, and individuals born of this sign may be drawn to homes near the water or with a water view. They may also look to incorporate water features in their homes like fountains, aquariums, pools, or even background audio of running water. 

Spiritual Spaces

Many Scorpios have deep interest in spiritual practices or mysticism and may favor homes with spaces dedicated to meditation, yoga, reiki, tarot cards, and more.  

Whether you are a Scorpio or live with one, remember that creating the perfect space for a Scorpio should be reflective of their intense, introspective, and passionate nature.
