Scorpion (Centruroides sculpturatus)

Brief Description

The Scorpion card symbolizes change, death, and rebirth. It represents a figurative death where something old must be shed to make way for the new. Just as a scorpion sheds its skin multiple times throughout its life, it's an opportunity to let go of outdated aspects of your life, like unfulfilling relationships or dead-end jobs, allowing for growth and transformation.

Symbolism of the Scorpion

With its poisonous sting, the scorpion is a classic symbol of death. Ancient Egyptians believed them to be spirits which guided souls from one realm to the next.

Figurative Death and Rebirth

However, with this card is not a literal death, but a figurative one. Scorpions periodically shed their skins and grow a new one - up to six times in its lifetime. Perhaps it’s time to shed your own skin, like an old relationship that’s run its course, or a dead-end job you’ve been at for too long.
