The Moon enters Scorpio just before noon today (Eastern US time), shifting from the balanced harmony of Libran thinking into intense emotional depths. Scorpio is insightful to the point of being wary, and the opening opposition with Jupiter in comfortable Taurus says it's time to pay attention to what's going on underneath.
This Moon steps away from Uranus' readiness to bungee jump into the future, preferring to look before leaping. Yet this afternoon, flowing connections with Chiron and Venus in visionary Pisces open channels of intuition offering creative healing. This afternoon, we check in with how we're feeling––expressive arts, anyone?

The Scorpio Moon flows with Pluto, Scorpio's ruler. An edgier connection with the North Node, the arrow pointing to our life path, urges us forward without hiding the difficulties. This Moon would rather see them, anyway. Can't hide things from Scorpio.
Later Tuesday, the Moon connects with Mercury in practical Capricorn. Although Water and Earth signs usually flow easily together, Scorpio and Capricorn can be at odds: Scorpio's antennae quiver at every nuance, while Capricorn just wants solid facts. This combination offers a chance to translate intuitive awareness into practical action.
Tuesday evening brings an edgy aspect between Jupiter and Uranus, possibly raising questions about whether things are moving too fast or not fast enough.
By Wednesday morning, it looks like this Moon has made up her mind and is ready to act. Flowing connections with Mars and the Sun, both in Earth, support practical action in the world. Edgy connections with both Saturn and Neptune raise questions about whether our actions are aligned with our plans––yet we know that plans also must change in light of practical realities.
The Moon–Neptune square is the closing aspect for this waning transit through Scorpio. After about an hour void of course, the Moon steps into sociable, optimistic Sagittarius. During this time with shadowy Scorpio, we explore spaces that are not always clear: emotions, intuition, and the path ahead.
