| Moon in Scorpio - Diving the Depths |
The Moon is in the early degrees of Scorpio on what will be quite a dark and intense day. The Scorpio Moon is quiet, secretive, guarded with with what it allows us to reveal and yet it impels us to find out as much as we can about the movements, motivations and plans of others. You see the Scorpio Moon wants us to be informed, as forewarned is forearmed, and if we know what's coming, then we can protect ourselves from what is coming. That's the ultimate goal, the need to survive.
Initially the Moon is in a close sextile to Saturn. Our emotions are steady and slightly held back in the early hours of this day and we have a good work ethic if we have things to do. This Moon linked to Saturn will always keep ultra cool in a crisis. Scorpio is never one to openly fret when trouble comes to the door, simply because Scorpio is “used” to trouble. With our emotions in check and ourselves accustomed to potential difficulty because we are “aware of what may be coming, we'll be able to cope with almost anything now.
I said this is a dark day, and that's because the Sun is still in a connection with Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio providing an echo of the Moon in Scorpio. The Sun also connects this afternoon with the former ruler of Scorpio, Mars. It was in charge of the Scorpion sign before Pluto had been discovered. The Sun making a sextile to Mars in Scorpio gives an extra “ooomph” to our day, a shot of adrenaline intravenously injected into us. Everything today seems under the level, and even if we are doing things we will be keeping our true intentions way out of view.
Finally today, the Moon forms a trine to Neptune. This is a watery trine that sees us diving beneath the surface to explore the depths beneath. Yes we are free the move around but the light seeps away into darkness much the further down we continue to go. In the inky blackness of the surroundings we as we reach the bottom, we have to exist on our instincts ans wits alone, sensing what is right, what is safe or what is dangerous to us. Tonight as darkness falls, we our intuition will be our best ally, so don't take anything on face value...
