Scorpio moon

I don't care about what mechanism appears to make astrology work more often than not, but I think it's often just as valid as a lot of stuff that's spouted in the realms of psychology and sociology. However, I don't swallow it whole; I take it as it fits (with much of that realm of stuff).

So, the moon was in Scorpio when I was born. This apparently means that I can be "Brooding, Intense, Motivated, Dominating, Spiteful, Loyal, Creative, Suspicious". Well, hm. I only brood occasionally. I'm not in the slightest bit spiteful or suspicious, and I'm not terribly motivated in general. I don't think I have fantastic willpower. In fact, the only qualities I totally agree with there are "intense" and "loyal". However, Milton Black has some more relevant things to say:

You have strongly pronounced likes and dislikes.  (Really?!)
You tend to hold what others would term peculiar moral and social ideals. (*cough*)
You cannot abide criticism of your actions, because you hold fast to your ideals and try to live by them. (At least my reaction to that kind of criticism has somewhat improved with age!)

But a common theme for us moon in Scorp types is a liking for privacy. For me, this isn't the same as liking secrecy, but it can tip over that if someone starts digging too hard at something that doesn't concern them. Not something that happens to me that often these days. When I was a kid, I used to love reading stories about houses with secret passages and priest's holes and the like. I would spend hours fantasising about building tunnel networks under the house. Ok, literally escapist fantasies, heh, but they have a specific kind of form.

Getting to the point (yes, there is one), I WANT one of these secret rooms!!1! Aren't they bloody cool? I wouldn't be sticking a study or a studio in there, though. I'm sure I could come up something a lot more interesting to put in such a funky kind of space. If I ever get to build my dream house, I'm going to get one of those.
