Scorpio is the most southern of the constellations (in the northern hemisphere). The path of the sun intercepts the plane of the earth's ecliptic in Scorpio at her their lowest point (late November/early December, currently). In ancient days this all occured due south, above water, closer to the winter solstice; hence Scorpio's association with secrecy, mystery, & sexuality.
When at his lowest point; when the sun insects the plane; Scorpio appears briefly above the southern horizon, just above the southern sea (then, presumably the Mediterranean). He spends most of his "life" below the horizon, underwater, doing gods know what. Sounds like a water sign to me
Hope this helps.
