Sun in ScorpioAbout Christopher Columbus
Italian explorer sailing under the Spanish crown whose 1492 voyage across the Atlantic initiated sustained contact between Europe and the Americas, profoundly and irreversibly changing world history. Columbus completed four voyages to the Caribbean and Central America, though he never acknowledged that he had reached a continent previously unknown to Europeans.
Christopher Columbus the Scorpio
Scorpio does not do shallow. A fixed water sign traditionally ruled by Mars and modernly by Pluto, Scorpio is drawn to whatever is real and hidden: the actual feeling under the polite answer, the thing nobody says at dinner. Small talk is a chore; the conversation at 2am is where Scorpio comes alive.
In Chinese astrology
Christopher Columbus is a Metal Goat in the Chinese zodiac.
