November’s New Moon in Scorpio - An invitation to dive deep within
19th November: PST 22:47 | 20th November: EST 01:47 | GMT 06:47
Arriving at 28 degrees and nearly at the close of Scorpio season, this November new moon brings with it a clear call for a deep dive. A Scorpio new moon naturally urges us toward depth and inner truth, yet this one carries an added charge, as conversations with five other planets are all woven into its influence. There’s potency here; a message rich with insight. Let’s journey into this lunation together…
Ruled by Mars in ancient astrology and Pluto in modern astrology, Scorpio is a sign that is called to investigate what lies beneath. Scorpio energy is both mystical and probing, willing to venture into hidden realms in search of truth. It welcomes profound transformation yet also knows how to act with precision and intent, combining depth with a clear, strategic edge.

We have been working with Scorpio energy since the sun moved into this sign on 22nd / 23rd October and as the new moon arrives, we have the chance to reflect on whatever has come up since that time. Mars, ruler of the new moon, now moving through Sagittarius, suggests that this is also a moment to consider how aligned you are with your guiding beliefs and the visions you hold for the path ahead.
A tango with Mercury
With Mercury heading back through Scorpio in retrograde motion, its close dance with the new moon may invite us to revisit something with fresh eyes or seek new information. A different perspective or an unexpected angle may be just what’s needed to give shape and substance to the visions we’re holding. Meanwhile, Uranus - ever the catalyst for awakening - stands opposite in Taurus, ready to stir what has been dormant and illuminate what we may have overlooked.
Make space at this new moon to pause and take in all the information. The deeper messages are what we need to hear…
