What it does well
Sees through pretence instantly and commits completely once convinced.
Water · Fixed · ruled by Pluto (traditionally Mars)
♅ Uranus in Scorpio ♏
Uranus governs disruption and independence — a generational placement. In Scorpio, that function takes on intensity, privacy and refusal to accept surfaces — a Fixed Water expression ruled by Pluto (traditionally Mars).
Where it strains
Tests people rather than asking, and remembers slights for a very long time.
