Moon in Scorpio: the traits of this unique planetary alignment & how it will affect you
Our lady Luna rules the emotional realms
She tugs at our feelings, our sensitivities and instinctive reactions to the world around us. She also powers up our intuition, forming a pathway through the veil. This ancient Goddess of embodiment can also make the subtle landscape of our physical bodies rise and fall, feel soothed or inflamed, depending on how she calls to your uniqueness.
The Moon spends between 1-4 days at a time in a single zodiac sign.
Some folks are highly attuned to her celestial shifts, and some rarely feel them at all. But as a collective, the current Moon sign has a definite, though subtle influence on the energetic climate of our days. So alongside the Sun sign knowing what the current Moon sign is, will help you navigate her waters SO much more smoothly…
In today’s collective horoscope the Moon moves through the deep and mystic waters of Scorpio, the sign of her “detriment”.
This is an intense lunar transit – under the Scorpio Moon’s gaze, everything turns black and white, there’s no middle ground when it comes to emotion. Like the element, this water sign knows no bounds when it comes to the depth, breadth, and intensity of emotion so what you feel is likely to become all-consuming.
Try not to over-react.
Keep compassion in mind
The Scorpio Moon sign can also be highly transformational. As the sign of the shaman and the witch (and ruled by Pluto, no less) Scorpio can bring ego death like no other, but this often means facing harsh truths about ourselves. Triggers may pop up out of nowhere, leading to intense emotional exchanges with friend and foe. But this is also a highly auspicious time to shed layers and make new commitments. So if you use these encounters and the intense emotions they bring to look your shadow in the eye, immense things could be waiting in the ether for you today!
This astrology calls for you to trust your intuition. The emotional intensity Scorpio holds translates well into inner knowing…. if you can keep your head.
Deeply Spiritual Energy
Ask for spiritual guidance, and it will reveal itself through the veil.
Carrying a deeply devotional energy, this Moon sign holds a strong space to dedicate yourself to something. You’ll likely feel a surge of self-reliant and strong-willed energy so whether it’s a new relationship, a foreign language or an essay for school, giving your heart and soul will feel like a normal day at the office! But a little extra self-awareness will prevent you from tipping into obsessive behavior and working 12 hours straight (not unheard of under this astrology!)
Some stargazers find they are physically affected by the Moon’s transit through Scorpio. As the zodiac ruler of the sexual organs, you could find your libido hits a high! So enjoy it whilst it lasts, and remember, always play safe!
