August 29th, 2025: Scorpio Moon

• Scorpio Moon trine Jupiter in Cancer (17 deg)

• Moon square Mercury in Leo (23 deg)

• Moon Void of Course in Scorpio (23 deg, 8:47 pm EDT)

• Moon enters Sagittarius (Aug 30th, 10:04 am EDT)

Moon trine Jupiter brings abundant feelings - all the secrets and intense needs come flooding out and for the most part this is positive. The overall mood is optimistic and there's a comfort level with the intensity.

However, Scorpio can be an overwhelming sign due to its all or nothing approach and a trine from Jupiter will enable this. More is not always better - watch for enhanced obsession and possessiveness. There will be no limits to what comes out because Jupiter will make it seem like it's all good. Some people are magnetized by Scorpio's depths while others are repelled.

The square to Mercury is the last aspect before the Moon goes VOC so things end on a tense note. There will be difficulties communicating those profound needs and heavy secrets. Others may be focused on the shiny surface and not ready for full-on Scorpio. Or, you may want to express what's in your depths but you get caught up in ego matters or displaying what sounds impressive rather than core truths.

The Moon's VOC will stretch on for a bit, ending the next morning when it enters Sag. So in the meantime, make use of the depth and silence of the Scorpio night - nothing needs to be started (it's best not to begin anything during a VOC Moon) so use the energy to do some internal investigation. Sit with your darkness and secrets, whether or not you communicated them. Look inwards, at your shadow. Or, if you witnessed someone else's darkness (and you're comfortable with it) hold space for them. Give them the gift of your full attention.
