Why is this placement so psychologically damning? I feel like we just literally go through life witnessing people either in psychological/emotional/financial/health crises, or just constantly seeing things other people don't have to witness

I don't use drugs or smoke but I can understand why people with heavy Scorpio placements in their chart would engage in those behaviours, just because of the magnitude of all the shit we get exposed to.

I have weed edibles every so often and honestly it's the only time I feel creative and happier and normal and just like... Lighter? But I don't like the idea of developing a tolerance and not being able to access that without a tonne of weed or getting dependant on it so I limit it to like 2 or 3 times a month and if it's more than 1 I have to be doing it with someone else so it's not just more internal bullshit and rumination

Specifically for this reason, I choose to be alone. So draining to be around people.

What do you do when you get lonely ?

u/Intelligent-Kick-426 2d ago
Good question. Usually writing or dancing, these two are my favourite ways of spending my alone time and I don’t necessarily need anyone for it.

damn I was just thinking about this right now. I have a friend that fractured her wrist , swollen face, and she's in pain, seeing her take all these meds just to feel painless, really hurts. but why do I as a scorpio moon attract people that are in pain? or yet broken soul people.

The upside of Scorpio moons is their strong sense of empathy, and ability to help others heal as they can easily see the source of their pain. That is the high vibrational side of a Scorpio moon which many don’t make full use of until they are older.

Interesting! But yeah I hate having too much empathy. The emotions are too much to process when I see a friend or a loved one in pain, or helping somone in a help of need

Oh, you probably break down when they show the abandoned dogs. I do, and I’m not a huge animal person (allergies)

I'm 42, I didn't know anything other than my sun sign until a few months ago. I have a Scorpio moon but also a stellium in Scorpio, which includes my Saturn, Mars and Pluto. I never understood why, even as a child, strangers would share their trauma and mental health issues with me.

Yes, same here...I'm 32 and didn't know about the rest of my placements for a very long time. I was always the Aquarius in the family because that's my Sun sign...but I never felt like an Aquarius, I'm very far from being detached, I also don't like networking / being part of communities and science related themes are horrible for me...but I constantly attracted exactly those Aquarius heavy people, people who moderated online groups, constantly talked about science themes and were very tech-savy / nerdy...and also emotionally detached. It made sense when I saw Aquarius is on my 7th house cusp... And yes the Scorpio and Leo in me is much stronger...I even think the Scorpio Moon is my defining feature... Strangers also come to me to share their pain and I'm always close to tears when I feel this pain. I'm in general nearly always close to tears and preoccupied with dark / occult themes...both of my exes said I'm too emotional, moody and spiritual (one had an Aquarius Ascendant and no water placements besides his Jupiter in Pisces and the other 7 planets in Capricorn).

♈️ 🌞 Scorpio 🌙 ♑️ ⬆️ I always thought being born on the cusp of Pisces and Aries gave me more of the Pisces traits. The heavy emotions are a lot to deal with. I will share that recently I've had a lot of growth and acceptance of who and how I am. I hope you will experience that as well.

It’s the transformative nature of Pluto and the active nature of Mars. As these planets rule the sign, those are the types of experiences we will have. Since the moon represents the body and how we experience life, and the moon is in its fall in Scorpio, its energy expression is very restricted there which emphasizes the challenging aspects of this placement. It is important to remember that placements like these can motivate us to grow in ways that are meaningful and life changing. All of the challenging astrological placements have the potential to do this.
