As we mentioned, Scorpios are some of the most intense signs in the zodiac. She’ll always do something til it is finished - and if she has set her mind to doing it, obstacles are there to be flattened by these determined girls! She is also passionate and creative, art and love are likely to be big parts of her life. She is insightful and analytical, and more than a little mysterious - you may have wondered on more than one occasion whether she could read your mind! But how does all of this translate to Pandora charms, Scorpio style?

If there is any zodiac sign that will appreciate the rich intensity of a gold base, it is Scorpios. Check out the range of gold charms, and look for individual, creative ones like the gold padlock and hanging key charm shown at the beginning of the article. All the gold charms are made from 14ct, making them beautiful quality as well as easy on the eye! If your budget doesn’t quite stretch to allow full gold, but you love the sweet and imaginative heart padlock design that so many others do, you’ll find an alternate version of this bead in the silver and gold section, for around a sixth of the price.

Scorpios are certainly deep, intense people - and you can pander to that with a deeply colored, intense stone like a sapphire or a ruby. These are available on luxury charms like the gold flowers charm with sapphires shown. This design is also available with rubies - natural, not synthetic ones, of course! If you love that rich deep contrast of the gem’s color against gold, but not the design, there are plenty of alternatives within the gold section. For passionate and loving Scorpios, the ruby heart gold charm pictured is a lovely choice. This doesn’t necessarily need to be a romantic gift - daughters, sisters and mothers will all appreciate the sentiment equally. There is a sapphire version of this charm as well as a gold/diamond one, or you can choose plainer beads which make the gem the real feature, set in plain circles of mellow gold.

However, there is certainly no need to throw away your Pandora ideas for Scorpio girls if your budget doesn’t extend to gold charms. Passion and intensity come in more colors than gold - in fact, most people would say that red is the color of passion! The enamel and Murano glass sections celebrate this well, and you can get some of the sparkle of rubies, but without the cost, in the gemstone section with red cubic zirconias. The trinity red cubic zirconia spacer shown at right is the best example, with the red zirconias even color matched to be quite close to natural rubies in their tone. Set on sterling silver, these charms are intended as spacers (you would have several in a bracelet, separating the more featured charms), so are very budget friendly.

Again, the spirit of love and the headiness of passion are captured well in the enamel charms shown - the spherical red hearts charm has been very popular, with the dark oxidized sterling silver of the base bringing the red hearts to a life of their own. The red hearts dangle charm is only a little more expensive, but incorporates that little luxury of gold crowns on the hearts. Dangle charms are likely to be a Scorpio favorite - while bracelets filled with them tend to look a bit overwhelming, that little bit of freedom, movement and individuality will really set a Scorpio alight.

Nothing has more mystery than a Scorpio … except perhaps a mystic circles Pandora charm from the Murano glass section The red on white will be a great choice for Scorpios, with its intense coloration and stark contrasts. The amber and brown is another great choice for them, and if you have also chosen gold beads, the richness of these colors really highlights the gold well. However, these are also available in white on white, pink on pink, blue on blue and green on green patterns.

And if you are looking for a cute, but very cost-effective addition to a Scorpio bracelet this Christmas, the dragon charm pictured is perfect. The hypnotic mystery of these mythical creatures will certainly appeal to Scorpios - however these dragons have a cute modernity that makes them a very sweet gift. The turtle charm shown can be a great choice also - intensely private and secretive Scorpios have probably often wished they has a shell to retract into! These charms are in the most budget-friendly price bracket of them all - the simple sterling silver charms.

We do concede that you know your Scorpio friend or loved one best, though!
