I like the idea that Scorpio's symbol is also the Eagle. The Eagle's eyesight is increadable and most Scopios don't miss a thing within their field of vision and outside it too. I think the Eagle represents higher thinking and wisdom.
How do you feel about this?
I feel more Scorpionic these days. Been meeting lots of new folks IRL lately, and it's been strange how on point my first impressions are. I like my spidey senses. 
ETA: My avatar photo reflects the depths/heights a Scorpio can attain, sub phoenix for eagle. 😉
Yes I agree. I live with a strong pluto girl.. And she never misses a thing, and I've a strong Scorpio Rising BF. He is way more clued on than anyone I've known.
It's good if you need to take stock in life and you ask them for their opinon
I don't think either symbol expresses the deep compassion this sign can have.
What do you think of the Celtic Animal Zodiac symbol:
Wolf/Hound October 28 - November 24 Wolves have a strong sense of purpose, and will go to great lengths to see their point is made, and fully understood. This Celtic animal sign is fearless, brave and they rarely compromise. These are the hero’s you want by your side in the heat of battle. They will not back down, and they will take no quarter. Others marvel at their inner fortitude. Where do they find the energy and wherewithal to keep going? They thrive on challenge, that’s what gives them their stamina. They have impeccable character, and “honor” is their middle name. They are strong willed, and sometimes live up to the “lone wolf” label. Nevertheless, you always know where you stand with them, and they will unite with you as long as you share their cause.

I think I've embodied the various Scorpio symbols throughout my life: The Eagle, the Scorpion, and the Phoenix. Repeatedly.
It is sort of nice. But what is the ruler again? Scorpios will backstab people faster than anyone, I have Neptune is Scorpio and three eighth house planets and I'm no saint, but I noticed people with stelliums in this sign have little to no concern for others and can be very vindictive and cruel - and even relish in someone else's pain but at the same time expect everyone to bend over backwards for them.
