The Moon in Scorpio: Loyal, Mysterious, Passionate

Nov 27, 2024 – Nov 30, 2024

Before we talk about the energies of the Scorpio Moon, let's first learn about the Moon itself. The Moon is a planet in Astrology, and it moves so quickly through the sky that it passes through each of the zodiac signs every month.

Most of us are familiar with our Sun sign, but are often unware of our Moon sign. Our Sun sign represents our conscious self, but our Moon sign reflects our emotions and moods.

When the Moon is in Scorpio

Regardless of what your Moon sign is, for a couple of days each month we will all feel the influence of the Scorpio Moon. This means you’ll react a little more sharply and with that stinger Scorpio is known for. You may feel things a little more passionately, or you may be willing to go to extremes that you might not otherwise go to. The Moon in Scorpio isn’t known for being low-key!

This is also a time of when you’ll look within to truly understand the depths of your feelings. This period of introspection could lead to greater self-awareness as well as an awareness of those around you. The ability to get in touch with the intricacy of your own emotions gives you the insight needed to understand others’ motivations. Don’t be surprised if you have a few light bulb moments during this time.

New Moon in Scorpio

New Moons are times of planting seeds, and the Scorpio New Moon urges us to plant the seed of expression. Speaking the truth isn’t always easy, especially if our feelings conflict with someone else’s. You may have felt torn between supporting others and supporting yourself, but during this New Moon you’ll finally feel ready to express what’s in your heart.

You won’t just have the urge to express your emotions, you may also experience them more fully than you normally do. Powerful and profound Scorpio doesn’t hold anything back! In fact, it could feel like you’re going through an emotional upheaval. Diving into an ocean of emotion isn’t necessarily a bad thing because the greatest treasures are often found the deeper you’re willing to go.

Full Moon in Scorpio

The Full Moon in emotionally intense Scorpio is always a dynamic event. During any Full Moon we feel the tug of war between opposing signs, and in this case, the passionate waters of Scorpio counter the practical Taurus Sun. This illuminating event could put a spotlight on what it is you really need in your life -- and what it is that needs to go.

It could appear like the Full Moon in Scorpio is taking you over to the dark side by rocking your relationships and finances. But what’s happening during this time is ultimately for the best. Fights and upsets during the Scorpio Full Moon create the opportunity for positive breakthroughs by eliminating bad habits (or people) from your life.

If you were born with the Moon in Scorpio

The Moon is all about our feelings, and Scorpio is about intensity. This means that if you were born with the Moon in Scorpio you have a cauldron of emotion that can easily bubble over. Scorpio has been accused of being secretive, and that’s because they tend to bury their feelings. Those with a Scorpio Moon in their natal chart know that not everyone can handle their passion and sensitivity, and over time they learn to hold their feelings in instead of expressing them.

Because the Moon rules our emotions, it has a huge impact on our romantic lives. People with a natal Scorpio Moon take their relationships seriously and want to feel a sense of deep, abiding kinship with their partners. They have a special knack for demonstrating how they feel and easily align emotion with desire so they can connect on an emotional level. You will never feel a shortage of affection and attention from them!

Having a natal Moon in intense Scorpio can be overwhelming at times, with extreme highs and lows until you learn to put things into perspective. Having the ability to feel your feelings and bring the truth about anything (or yourself) to light can lead to profound transformations. Don’t fear these periods of change because a natal Moon in Scorpio gives you the power to survive anything.
