Scorpio is a fixed water sign ruled by Pluto in modern astrology and Mars in traditional astrology. So when the Moon is in Scorpio, we tend to value privacy, intensity, depth, and honesty (Pluto). We have less tolerance (Mars) for small talk and prefer deep and meaningful interactions.

Emotions are close to the surface, as water signs tend to be more in touch with their feelings. However, the secretive nature of Scorpio means that they might not be on display for all to see. The fixed nature of Scorpio means that we may fixate and obsess on what or who evokes an emotional response during this time.

The Moon is related to our emotions and nurturing. It influences the way we nurture others and wish to be nurtured. Generally speaking, the Moon represents women and our mother in particular.

The Moon moves quickly, changing signs approximately every two and a half days, so the impact of the Moon is usually quite fleeting. If the Moon moves through one of the more visible houses (1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th) in your natal chart, then the effects might be more visible to others. The strength of the Moon making an aspect to a natal planet is likely to be strongest when it occurs when the Moon is New or Full.
