If you're a typical Aries woman (‘assertive,’ ‘bold,’ and ‘determined’ ringing a bell?), you love the thrill of the chase and the hunt for the perfect partner. Perhaps it's not surprising you've got your sights set on a Scorpio, the guy some call the "bad boy" of the zodiac, the one that seems so hard to tame with his mysterious, intense, and deeply intuitive traits. You may say you never back down from a challenge, but the magnetic and emotional Scorpio would likely say the same thing. Here, we've gathered some tips you can use to snag—and hold—that scorpion's attention (along with insight from expert astrologer Angel Eyedealism).
How an Aries Woman Attracts a Scorpio Man
Scorpio men are drawn to passion, emotion, and depth. To attract a Scorpio man, show him your personality has depth by sharing your intellect or (gradually) revealing emotional details of your life. Share things you’re passionate about, and listen attentively when he’s sharing his own interests and feelings with you.
Steps
Attracting a Scorpio Man as an Aries Woman
-
Create opportunities for him to approach you alone. This step might be hard for you if you're the typical extroverted Aries who's always out with a bunch of people. But if you want to attract that Scorpio guy , make an effort to go out alone when you know you're likely to cross paths. The scorpion usually stays away if you're surrounded by friends, as they prefer pulling you away for a one-on-one convo. [1] X Research source
- For example, if you always see him when you go to the local café with your friends, go by yourself at around the same time. If he's there, you'll have a greater chance of catching his eye.
- Scorpio also tends to be attracted to confidence, and a woman out alone exudes confidence.
-
Skip the small talk and start a substantive discussion. Most Scorpio men get bored quickly by small talk. Unless you're majoring in meteorology or are really passionate about climate change, talking about the weather isn't usually a great opener with a Scorpio. Instead, ask him a question about his hopes and dreams or something he's really passionate about and watch him open up and engage. [2] X Research source
- Remember that both Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars, the planet of passion. Stick to topics that ignite interest (yours or his)—even if you're into something he's not familiar with, he'll find your passion for the subject fascinating. Aries is a fire sign, so let him see some of that spark!

Share something you're passionate about with him. Scorpio, like Aries, is also ruled by Mars, the planet of passion. Your scorpion typically loves seeing you get really excited and enthralled by something. You don't have to worry about holding back with him—seeing you get really into something will make you attractive to him and help you to seduce him further. [3] X Research source
- As an Aries, you're known to be eager and enthusiastic, so it shouldn't be hard for you to find something you love that you can share. [4] X Research source It's even better if it's something he's not that familiar with, so you can teach him all about it.
- Be careful if you tend to jump from one thing to another. Scorpios tend to get obsessive about their interests, so if he sees you bouncing around from one thing to the next, he might think you're flaky or superficial—two traits he's not a fan of.
-
Give him hints that your personality has depth. The typical Scorpio is a bit of an onion himself—layers and layers—and he appreciates the same in another person. You'll catch his interest if it seems like you've got more going on under the surface than would appear at first glance.
- Just a little something unexpected or out of the ordinary will stoke his curiosity. He'll be attracted because he'll feel like he has to learn more about you to find out all the different layers of your psyche.
- Try writing in a journal or reading a book around him.
- But speaking of layers, you want to peel those back slowly . Don't tell him your whole life story on the first date—he's not likely to stick around if there's no mystery left.
- Eyedealism recommends providing “a little bit of mystery that [Scorpio] needs to unravel—that will keep him pulling on the yarn forever. So don’t give it all up right away, leave a veil of mystery, and then [he] will be intrigued and obsess over you.”
-
Spend a night out indulging at a new fancy restaurant. Scorpios are known to love indulging in quality food and drinks. Going to a new restaurant can help satisfy your mutual craving for something different, something exotic—and it gives him the opportunity to pamper his taste buds, which he's always going to be down for. Win-win! [5] X Research source
- If, like a typical Aries, you're one for the grand romantic gesture, you might call the restaurant ahead of time and set up a special table and tasting menu for the two of you to savor.
-
Go on an outdoor adventure together. Both Aries and Scorpio are known as adventurous signs. The typical Aries is pretty active, so a hiking or camping adventure might be right up your alley. If you're not that into roughing it, you'll still have a lot of fun on a road trip going somewhere off the beaten path that the two of you can discover on your own. [6] X Research source
- For example, you might book a cabin in the woods next to a pristine lake. You can go boating or fishing during the day and cuddle up by the fire at night.
-
Challenge him to a game of strategy. A Scorpio man typically enjoys opportunities to think strategically. [7] X Research source If you're a typical Aries woman, you have a competitive streak a mile wide—indulge it in a game of strategy, such as chess or checkers, that puts the two of you head-to-head. As the two of you become engaged in the game, the sparks are sure to fly.
- There are plenty of other games that require strategic thinking if chess isn't your bag. Some classic 2-player games include Stratego, Scrabble, and Go. If you've got a couple of other players, you might try Risk or Catan.
-
Suggest a hard-hitting documentary to watch together. Scorpio guys tend to enjoy deep dives into psychological subjects—they love analyzing things and figuring out what makes people tick. If you find something kind of out there, dealing with the paranormal or the occult, he'll probably really eat it up.
- Plan on plenty of discussion afterward—your scorpion is sure to have lots of thoughts about what you just watched. If you're watching something at home, be prepared for frequent pauses so he can digest what just happened on screen.
-
Stick to a single signature scent if you wear perfume. Scorpios have a reputation for having a strong sense of smell. A floral, spicy, or fruity signature scent will capture his attention and he'll notice it every time you're together. Over time, he'll come to associate it with you, and it will fuel his attraction to you.
- Essential oils work great for signature scents because they're often scents he'll come across throughout his day. Every time he smells it, he'll be reminded of you.
-
Get adventurous in the bedroom. One place scorpions typically aren't shy is in bed, so get ready for some sparks. Scorpio men are known for their passion and sexual magnetism. And don't be surprised if he breaks out the handcuffs!
- Since both of your signs are ruled by Mars, it's likely that the two of you will fight for dominance and really push each other's sexual limits—but your chemistry is raw, passionate, and primal.
- As Eyedealism confirms, “if a Scorpio doesn’t feel engaged and enthralled with you, and sexual and intimate with you, then they’re not going to have interest in you. There has to be something intriguing.”
-
Embrace the quirks that make you unique. Scorpio guys are usually attracted to people who are different. The cookie-cutter type won't turn a scorpion's head. He wants someone who has her own thing going on and is confident enough to own it. This doesn't mean faking it—he can smell that a mile away. Instead, give him a glimpse of who you really are through little things that make you so uniquely "you."
- For example, maybe you have a conservative career and dress the part, but you have an eye-catching keychain that hints at your passion for the occult. Scorpios are known to be interested in the occult as well, so that's something he'll definitely notice.
- A small accessory with a story behind it is also great. If he asks you about it, you have a ready-made conversation starter.
- Aries women are known for their assertiveness, but don’t be scared to hide that part of you from your Scorpio man. As Eyedealism says, a Scorpio man “would admire [an Aries’] strength and her sense of aggression.”
-
Open up to him and let him get to know your true self. A Scorpio guy won't stick around if he feels like you're putting on a front. Above all, your scorpion needs you to be open and honest with him. If you're just saying whatever you think he wants to hear or trying to change yourself into his ideal woman so he'll fall for you, he'll figure it out eventually—and he won't like it. [8] X Research source
- The best thing you can do is open yourself up to him and let him get to know you as a person—warts and all! Don't pretend to be someone you're not. He'll have more appreciation for you if he can see that you're not putting on an act with him.
-
Give him time to open up. Getting to know a Scorpio man sometimes requires a little bit of patience. Don't expect him to tell you everything about him on the first date. This sensitive guy prefers to keep his vulnerabilities hidden until he's sure that he can trust you. Show him that you are trustworthy and solid, and eventually, he will relax.
- When he does reveal something deeper about himself, show that you understand and appreciate the trust that he's placed in you. You might say, "thank you so much for sharing that with me, it means a lot to know you trust me enough to talk about something so personal."
- Keep in mind that “Scorpio is a sign of obsession,” says Eyedealism. “They’re looking to find someone to obsess over, so they're going to provide a series of tests…to gauge your loyalty to them. For example, [they might] play hard to get or…be obsequious in some way.”
- These “tests” may make you feel like the Scorpio is closed off, but he really just needs time to get to know you and trust you.
-
Listen actively when he talks about how he feels. Emotions can be extremely important to the sensitive scorpion. [9] X Research source This might be a bit hard for you, Aries, since you typically want to talk about actions and results. The Scorpio guy often wants to talk about how he feels, and sometimes he just wants to vent—he's looking for empathy, not a solution.
- You might get in the habit of asking him, "Are you looking for solutions, or do you just want me to listen?" That helps you understand what he wants from you so he won't get upset at your reaction.
-
Cool down before you confront him about something upsetting. Your quick, Aries temper can overwhelm an emotional Scorpio. You're a fire sign, and you're known for a hot temper that can evaporate the still waters of your scorpion if you're not careful. [10] X Research source Step away and take a few deep breaths to calm down and ground yourself before you bring up problems.
- If you do blow up on your scorpion, take ownership of your actions and your words and apologize as soon as possible. He'll forgive you—in time—if you show how much he means to you.
-
Give your Scorpio guy enough quiet time to regroup. Scorpio guys tend to be more introverted and emotional and, if you're a typical extroverted Aries, you might not understand his need for alone time. If your guy's this way, take it seriously when he says he needs some time alone. It's not you, it's him! Without enough alone time to recharge his batteries, he'll get cranky and shut down.
- As an extrovert, this might be difficult for you to understand. Just think of it as the opposite of the antsyness you feel if you're sitting at home alone with nowhere to go.
-
Avoid getting involved with other men. “Scorpios tend to be pissed off at how flirtatious the Aries woman is,” comments Eyedealism, “and how she shows off.” A typical Scorpio gets jealous easily and isn't one to get involved with someone who's got eyes for anyone but him, so clear your dance card before you make a move. And, although this can be difficult for a typical Aries, try to keep your flirting with others to a minimum—especially when you're out with him.
- This is an area where a Scorpio and an Aries can have problems, so you might find that you have to really watch yourself. Something that you see as harmless, meaningless flirting can really stoke a Scorpio's jealousy.
