"Don't be someone that searches, finds, and then runs away," advises novelist Paulo Coelho. I'm tempted to add this caveat: "Don't be someone that searches, finds, and then runs away -- unless you really do need to run away for a while to get better prepared for the reward you have summoned . . . and then return to fully embrace it." After studying the astrological omens, Scorpio, I'm guessing you can benefit from hearing this information.
