HOROSCOPE
Being a Scorpio born on November 4th, you are known for will power, shyness and artistic abilities. You are determined in your efforts and will put in a great deal of effort to meet goals. Although you may be very talented, especially in the arts, you do not require attention, you actually shun it. You are most comfortable working behind the scenes and out of the limelight. This tendency often causes others to see you as mysterious. You take the same shyness into your relationships, your friends are often shocked when a new part of your personality emerges that had previously been kept hidden.
