Scorpio's astrological colors are BURGUNDY (VIOLET) and BLACK.

Burgundy (also called violet) is a variation of the color purple. Like the Scorpio person, burgundy is grand, idealistic, and sensitive, but may sometimes lack self-knowledge and maturity. Burgundy or violet shades are often used in art to depict disturbing events or emotions, because this color balances uncertainly between the positive red and the negative blue.

It is worth noting that in most languages, burgundy or violet is simply called blue (think of the rhyme, "Roses are red, violets are blue").

Black is not really a color, but the absence of color. Black is both positive and negative. Its associations are formal, conventional, and dignified. It also connotes the darker, more animalistic side of the human mind and heart - and of course, death. But then again, black can make other colors appear brighter, which is a positive and supportive quality.

In ancient Egypt, the color black symbolised night, death, and magic. It was the opposite of green, the colour of life. In most Western countries, black is the color of mourning. In modern China, it is the color for little boys.
