Emotional
control
With the Moon in
Scorpio, there is a deep seated need and desire to control and stay in control
of emotions and even physical surroundings. Someone with this placement will
experience these emotions or this desire almost to the point of secrecy which
often results in tensions in sexual relationships. Someone with the Moon in
Scorpio needs to pursue the mysterious, the forbidden and the unknown. This
Moon wants to feel deeply and therefore, does not turn its head away from a
crisis – on the contrary, someone with this placement may even be a crisis
junkie or at the least a parent, often the mother could have been just that.
Of course no-one
really wants to be in a state of crisis, upheaval and disaster but this Moon almost
grows through these challenges and in order to do so, perhaps even generates
them subconsciously.
Scorpio Moons are
secretive in their habits and often, emotionally veiled. They don’t give too
much away at the once and even if you think you know them, there is always another
layer to be discovered. It takes a long time for them to trust you but once
they do, you better not betray them. However, this is one of the signs with a
lot of natural intuition and in this case especially, healing abilities and
someone you can count in when you happen to find yourself in a crisis. Scorpio
Moon are great observers who understand the laws of nature – of death and
rebirth and transformation.
The sign of Scorpio is
ruled by the planet Mars, so this person wants to hunt, needs to hunt – always on
the lookout for the truth, wanting to get to the bottom of things. Mars’
influence can make someone with this placement emotionally a little explosive,
perhaps if you’ve invaded their privacy or where, in their eyes, disloyal to
them.
This is a strong-willed sign that
doesn’t change its emotions and feelings easily – once a Scorpio Moon has made
up his mind about how he feels about certain things, he’ll stick to it. Therefore during
Sade-Sati period, when Saturn crosses the signs before Scorpio (Libra), then
moves over the sign of Scorpio itself and then into Sagittarius, the next sign,
it can be a very challenging and painful time.
Suitable professions
for this sign are forensic science, working in the police force, espionage or
homeopathy.
