 | Gift Guide for Scorpions Scorpio birthdays: 22 October-21 November
Curious, competitive and mysterious, people born under the sign of the Scorpion can be difficult to get to know, making choosing a gift for a Scorpio friend a particular challenge!
|
|  | It doesn't have to be too difficult though. By playing on that love of mystery and intrigue, you'll be able to choose a gift those appeals to Scorpio's challenging nature. Detective stories, mystery novels or even board games like Cluedo make good gifts for Scorpio, but you may also want to set your Scorpio friend a challenge of a different kind by giving them some garden games or sporting equipment: Scorpions are one of the most competitive signs of the zodiac, as well as being one of the most energetic! |
|
Moody and mysterious they may be, but Scorpio is also a very sensual sign, who revels in passion and romance. Belgian chocolates, a dozen red roses and luxury perfume will allow you to set the scene for the perfect romantic evening. Whatever you buy for your Scorpio partner, however, be it scented candles, champagne or lingerie, your keyword should be luxury. Scorpios, more than any other sign, have a taste for the finer things in life, and expect to be pampered. You have been warned! |
Speaking of luxury, Scorpio's birthstone is Topaz, and this beautiful white topaz ring will appeal to their sense of style and drama. Scorpio's favourite colours, meanwhile, tend towards the dark and mysterious, and they love dressing in deep reds, blacks and violets - something to bear in mind if you decide to buy clothing or home ware. |
Scorpio children are inquisitive and adventurous. Binoculars, telescopes and other "adventure" equipment can be a good choice, and if you're buying books, go for classics like Sherlock Homes or the Famous Five. A personalised keepsake box provides your Scorpio child with a place to keep their secrets, and a good quality diary, complete with lock and key fulfils the same purpose. |
A play tent in the garden, meanwhile, will give your child the opportunity to enjoy a great adventure while remaining within a safe distance from home. Add tents and a picnic hamper filled with all your child's favourite treats, and you'll be able to provide the birthday party of a Scorpio child's dreams! |
Adult Scorpions also enjoy games, but prefer tactical games which allow them to use their cunning. If the Scorpion you're shopping for is a computer buff, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of strategy games, which will keep them occupied for hours. If your recipient would prefer something a little more traditional, Castle City is a tactician's dream, requiring the use of skill and strategy to take over the town and claim the castle!
