THE SYMBOL
“Hunters set out at dawn after wild ducks.”
Scorpio 22° · Sabian symbols, devised 1925 (Marc Edmund Jones, clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler)
Remember to round up: a planet or point at 9°30′ takes the 10° symbol, not the 9° one.
What this degree describes
Purposeful pursuit, timed precisely to the hour when the target is actually findable. This is Scorpio's hunting instinct in its plainest form, not aimless wandering but a deliberate, well-timed setting-out after something specific, patience and skill both required for the morning to actually produce anything.
When a planet or point falls here
A planet here often shows real skill at timed, deliberate pursuit of a specific goal rather than constant, unfocused effort. Mars or Jupiter can indicate someone who knows exactly when to set out after what they actually want.
What have you been meaning to set out after at the right hour, instead of waiting for it to simply arrive on its own?
