Scorpio:
Is the eighth sign
of the zodiac. Its symbol is a scorpion. Astrologers believe that
the planet Mars, which they consider a planet of force and violence,
rules Scorpio. Scorpio is a water sign.
Astrologers consider people born under the sign of Scorpio, from
October 23rd to November 21st, to have the characteristics of Mars.
Scorpios are aggressive and stimulated by conflict. They tend to
change moods quickly, going from calm to anger and from rudeness
to politeness.
A fascinating personality and outstanding powers of leadership give
Scorpios the respect, rather than the affection of others.
Pluto, the planet of secrecy, also rules Scorpio. Thus Scorpios
are secretive and like to investigate secrets.
Scorpio is the most
powerful sign of the twelve Sun signs of the zodiac,
the powerhouse of the zodiac.
What the Scorpio wants, the Scorpio usually gets.
Perseverance, determination and downright stubbornness play a significant
role.
The scorpion knows
what he wants, and posses the ability of obtaining it, if not through
violence, then through shrewdness, exertion and skill, which will
be the factors in his success.
The scorpion also
known as 'The Lurking One' (amongst many other names)
Is always poised and ready to strike death into anyone who touches
it.
But they are mostly quiet unless provoked.
"Don't make
me angry! You wouldn't like me when I get angry."
David Banner
Born and raised
in the multicultural areas of East London,
(Newham, Waltham Forest, Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Redbridge) Scorpion
always wanted to be a performer.
With stage, television,
and radio credits already under his belt, he looks to further his
skill base with his love of Hip-Hop, and comics.
A natural storyteller, who seeks to tell these stories across the
many mediums and formats available, expect to see and hear a lot
of great things from this jack of all trades.
Before September
11th, Scorpion was no stranger to travelling.
Having stayed in Essex, York, Dublin, Norwich, Cornwall, Jamaica,
St. Lucia, South Africa, Botswana, and Edinburgh, he has been witness
to the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of human nature.
'The scorpion is
the symbol of both wisdom and self-destruction.
Egyptians called it the creature accursed.'
With his 12 role-model saints (or Apostles as he calls them) adorning
his work space, scorpion takes time to reflect upon the meanings
of his words and actions.
In no particular
order here those 12 'Apostles'
Tupac Amaru Shakur

Marshall Bruce Mathers III : Eminem
Mahatma Ghandi : Ghandi
Nelson Mandela
Martin Luther King
Robert Nestor Marley : Bob Marley
Malcolm Little : Malcolm X
Cassius Clay : Muhammad Ali
Maya Angelou

With knowledge of
the power of speech and written word, Scorpion does not practice
any one religion, nor does he promote, support, or endorse xenophobia,
or homophobia.
Philosophical in
his own right, he adorns his body with various symbols, i.e. tattoo's
and piercings.
Each one has it's own specific, personal, and profound meaning to
him.
Essentially terrestrial
creature creeps stealthily along, apparently harmless, slowly overcoming
or circumventing its obstacles, while searching for the victim (however
powerful and strong) whom it will attack without fear, knowing that
its diminutive size will enable it to conceal itself easily and
without risk, which makes it possible to succeed through trickery,
or cunning.
Very calm, controlled,
and placid.
Inside this passionate person rages an eternal flame that will warm
the hearts of many.
That flame also burns with the desire to conquer and cure the ills
of the world-racism, child abuse, teen violence and wars.
On a first glance
Scorpion has a veneer of a calm, quiet thinker about him.
Which is to say that perhaps he is methodical in his ways;
always thinking things through.
He likes puzzles and to discover how things work.
In this way he is similar to a mortician, not a butcher, but a surgeon.
Exercising his rights and views with surgical precision.
In his hands a blade can be used to take, or save lives.
But in the Universe
balance must be maintained so the opposite side of the serious scorpion
is the comedian, is he funny? You decide.
A true renegade who is not concerned about keeping up with the Jones's.
He's going to do things his way.
"Don't you realise that this is the best way?"
With knowledge of
the power of speech and written word, Scorpion doesn't practice
any one religion, nor does he promote xenophobia, or homophobia.
This brother is
"tuff".
Definitely not going to be controlled by any female, job or anything
else for that matter.
"Male Chauvinist Pig", and the first to admit it.
"I am neither
an elemental spirit nor a demon.
I am a creature which brings death to whomsoever touches me.
I have two horns and a tail, which I brandish.
My horns are called savagery and hate,
and the dagger in my tail is called the avenging stabber."
