Overview
An intense, deep and transformative sign. Scorpio Moon is linked to strong emotions, secrecy, resilience and regeneration. In Vedic astrology Scorpio is ruled by Mars, is a water and fixed sign, and traditionally harmonises well with Cancer and Pisces.
Element & quality
Scorpio is a water sign, associated in tradition with feeling, intuition and care, and a fixed sign — “fixed” (sthira) — tradition links it to stability, focus and seeing things through. These are broad traditional categories for the sign itself, not a description of any one person.
Ruling planet
Scorpio is ruled by Mars, which in a Vedic chart represents your energy, drive and courage. Where the Moon sits in your own chart, and the planets around it, matter far more than the sign alone — this page describes only the sign in general.
How to use this
Think of your Raasi as one broad brushstroke, useful for learning the tradition and for everyday almanac timing — not a forecast of your life. Two people with the same Moon sign can be nothing alike. Take what feels useful as a gentle lens, and leave the rest.
