Scorpions are poisonous and dangerous. A dream about scorpions are often accompanied by pending doom and destruction. Maybe someone has hurled hurtful words towards your way, and you feel your world being destroyed by what they did.
To counter the scorpion dream, confront the individual who has created these destructive feelings around you.
Also, it may sometimes serve to remind us of times in our past, which have proved to be pointless and perhaps even dangerous, yet are inseparable from our current state of security. Dreaming about scorpions sometimes yields a sense of paranoia, for the dreamer might worry about intrusive, dirty work associated with past infamies. If one remembers such a tidbit, it might seem wise to avoid hanging about the same spots during waking moments.
