Vrishchik or Scorpio Rashi is a Zodiac co-ruled by Mars and Ketu. The zodiac is considered a karmic one along with Aquarius Rashi (that is co-ruled by Saturn and Rahu).
All planets (except Sun, Mars, Jupiter and some extent Mercury) find to difficult to give favorable results in the Zodiac of Scorpio.
Now coming to the question – Past karmas as seen by the 5th house in Vrishchik/Scorpio Rashi
Let us look at some of the observations
- The individual will find it easy to get into affairs but will be unable to trust their partner or will often be cheated leading to heart aches
- Despite wanting and loving children, their mind will be mostly wavering on whether to have kids or not
- Whenever they decide to invest into something speculative, chances of losses are very high
So, the karma is linked to Affairs, Children and Speculation
Having said that, these individuals will have a good inclination to find root cause of any problem. They can lead life as crime or forensic or archeological investigators. It will come naturally to them.
