Moon in Scorpio
The Moon is in fall in Scorpio: the feelings are intense, private and hard to soothe. Needs are for depth, loyalty and emotional truth; the Scorpio Moon can detect a lie in the room and cannot unfeel it. Comfort comes from intimacy with a very few, and from control. Resentment keeps well. The work is to let feelings be seen before they become strategy, and to trust before proof.
In plain words
The Moon stands for your feelings and needs. In Scorpio, that works in a Scorpio way: intense, private, all or nothing. You go after what you want quietly and do not let go.
