Moon in Scorpio
The Moon in Scorpio describes how a person feels, what they need to feel safe and what image of the mother they carry within. Element: water; modality: fixed.
Emotions
The Moon in Scorpio is in its fall: feelings are very strong, deep and hidden. You take everything seriously, to the full, and few people see what is going on inside. Attachments are forever, grudges last a long time.
What You Need to Feel at Ease
To feel safe you need complete trust, intimacy and control over the situation. Superficial relationships bring no comfort. Betrayal is the hardest blow; you sense falseness better than anyone.
You find comfort in solitude, a deep conversation with one trusted person, psychology, mysteries, water, passionate pursuits. You recover through total immersion. The danger is jealousy, control and revenge instead of talking.
Mother and Childhood
Mother is often remembered as strong, domineering, closed off, or as someone who went through hard times; there may have been family secrets. The bond with her is intense — with love, struggle and deep memory.
In Love and Family
In love you are passionate and devoted, and you demand the same: all or nothing. You need depth, loyalty and honesty to the very end. Jealousy runs strong; your relationships go through crises after which you either part or become even closer.
How to Support Yourself
Supporting yourself means finding safe ways to live through strong feelings: a journal, psychotherapy, creativity, sport. It helps to learn to forgive — not for the other person's sake, but so you stop carrying the weight inside.
The Moon's Strength in the Sign
