Scorpio Waxing Moon

Commitment, Emotional Discipline, and Inner Transformation

The Waxing Moon is the phase where intentions begin to demand honesty.

The seed has taken root. Growth is happening. Now the question becomes whether you are willing to stay present with what is changing inside you as a result.

When the Waxing Moon moves through Scorpio, growth happens through commitment, intimacy, and self-discipline. This is a time to focus your energy, confront what is uncomfortable, and choose transformation over avoidance.

Scorpio reminds you that real change requires participation, not observation.

Why the Waxing Moon Matters

The Waxing Moon supports:

• Momentum

• Focus

• Strengthening resolve

Look back at your New Moon intentions and choose one that asks for a deeper commitment. Scorpio prefers depth over shallow. This is the phase to go all in.

Ask yourself in your journal:

• What am I willing to fully commit to?

• Where do I need more discipline with my emotions?

• What pattern is asking to be transformed instead of repeated?

Scorpio energy cuts through surface-level effort and gets to the core.

Scorpio Energy: Focused, Transformational, Intense

Scorpio is a water sign associated with transformation, regeneration, and intimacy. Its energy is inward, concentrated, and powerful. Scorpio focuses on what is hidden, unspoken, or unresolved.

Scorpio energy supports:

• Deep focus

• Emotional honesty

• Boundary awareness

• Personal power

• Meaningful change

  
  

When on an upward-spiral, Scorpio brings clarity and resilience. When on a downward-spiral, it spirals into fixation or emotional reactivity. The Waxing Moon helps Scorpio energy move toward intentional transformation instead of emotional overwhelm.

The Mood of the Scorpio Moon

When the Moon is in Scorpio, the tone becomes:

• Serious

• Introspective

• Intense

• Private

This is a time to:

• Work behind the scenes

• Set firm boundaries

• Address emotional patterns

• Release habits that drain energy

• Choose conscious response over reaction

Scorpio uses discomfort as information.

Working With the Waxing Moon in Scorpio

Scorpio asks you to strengthen the structure supporting your intentions.

Consider:

• What belief, habit, or attachment needs to change?

• Where do I need stronger self-discipline?

• What am I ready to let go of to move forward?

This phase favors quiet commitment over public declaration. Transformation does not need an audience.

Turning Scorpio Energy Into SMART Goals

Scorpio thrives when goals are meaningful, focused, and emotionally honest. During this Waxing Moon, choose a goal that supports transformation, healing, or personal power.

Use the YesSpiral SMART Goal framework to refine one intention.

SMART Goals, the YesSpiral Way

Specific

What are you committing to transforming or strengthening?

Measurable

What shows progress? Think boundaries honored, habits changed, reactions softened.

Attainable

What disciplined action can you take consistently?

Relevant

Why does this goal matter to your growth or integrity?

Timed

Choose a container:

• One moonth

• One season

• One New Moon to Full Moon cycle

• One year

Scorpio prefers timelines that allow depth and integration.

Example

Instead of:

“I want to change my patterns.”

Try:

“I will practice pausing before reacting in emotionally charged situations and journal my responses daily for the next moonth.”

Focused. Honest. Scorpio-approved.
