Nadir in Scorpio
Nadir in Scorpio means Scorpio was at the lowest point of the chart, under the Earth, at the minute and place you were born. It is opposite the Midheaven and changes about every two hours, so it takes an exact birth time.
Scorpio is a fixed water sign. The nadir, or IC, is the point opposite the Midheaven: the part of the zodiac that was under the Earth, beneath your feet. It speaks of roots, home and what holds you up unseen.
Your roots
Roots in the dark
Your foundation may lie in what was not said. Perhaps home held strong feelings, secrets, a loss, and you learned early to read the silences. In private you probably need complete privacy, and you tend to keep your inner life well guarded. Perhaps what holds you up, unseen, is a strength that comes from having looked at difficult things and remained.
