Uncovering Truths, Embracing Passion and Deep Transformation
On Monday, the 9th of November at 7:01 am (GMT), we have the New Moon in transformative Scorpio. Be honest with yourself about what you want and the changes you want to make in your life. Anything is possible; you just have to believe. This week’s blog will look at the energy around this New Moon and how you can work with it.
New Moons mark the start of a new lunar cycle. This is a time to set out intentions for the next 4 weeks, which will help us to achieve our goals or maintain some aspect of our lives. Generally, anything started under a New Moon should be completed by the Full Moon in the same sign. This gives us a 6-month container to work with. (The Full Moon in Scorpio will be on the 20th of April 2027). When making New Moon Wishes, you can go as big or as small as you like. If you make a big wish, you can break it down into smaller, manageable goals. This allows you to track your progress as you move through each lunar cycle.
The Zodiac Energy of Scorpio
Scorpio is one of the four fixed signs, which follow the cardinal signs and fix in place the things we have previously started. These are the most stubborn and determined signs, and they are known for their strength and ability to see things through. Scorpio has themes around regeneration, transformation and renewal, making it the ideal New Moon to set intentions around revealing things that are hidden, healing the deepest parts of yourself and making lasting changes in your life. Scorpio doesn’t have time for the superficial; they want to get to the root cause.
As one of the three Water element signs, Scorpio is intense, passionate, emotional, powerful and complex. The Water signs feel all of the feelings and are very protective. This can make Scorpio possessive and obsessive. This is the sign of the zodiac that follows their desires. When they decide they like something or someone, they commit fully. This New Moon is a good time to make more time for the things you are passionate about and listen to your intuition more. What tools can you use to help you connect with your intuition? What are the things that light you up? What do you need to heal to move forward?
When setting your Scorpio New Moon intentions, we can use the themes and energy of this sign to help us. Here are some questions you can ask yourself to get the most from this energy:
What are my intentions for this lunar cycle?
Where can I be less fearful?
What do I need to heal?
Where can I transform?
How can I express my deepest emotions?
How can I reconnect with my passions?
Grab your Moon Notebook to write down your intentions, explore these questions, and track your progress across this 6-month Scorpio container.
Practical Ways to Work with This New Moon
There are also some practical ways to work with this New Moon. As the sign that likes to uncover truths and get to the bottom of things, investing your time in a research project, investigating something or doing tasks that need analysis works really well. Scorpio can be secretive and overprotective, so make sure you are protecting your privacy, especially in today's social media-obsessed world. Not every second of your life needs to be shared online.
If you are looking to deepen your connection to yourself and your intuition, then learning to meditate or deepening your current practice is a great way to start. You could also use divination tools to help you. Or invest in a tarot reading to see what it uncovers. Other ways to work with this intense, complex and occult-loving energy include doing physical activities and listening to or making atmospheric music. Let’s not forget the sexy and erotic Scorpio vibe. Is it time to inject some more passion into your relationships?
The Astrological Weather: Mars & Jupiter in Leo
There isn’t a lot going on this New Moon; only Mars and Jupiter have anything to say.
Mars, the planet of drive and determination, is currently in courageous Leo, bringing high-energy confidence and bold passion to pursue your biggest goals directly. What ambitious goal have you been overcomplicating? Under this New Moon, Mars is warning us that impulsivity is likely to cause problems. Acting first and thinking later probably won’t turn out very well, and anything started could run out of steam or spiral out of control.
Jupiter, the lucky planet of expansion, is also in generous Leo. This is a time to fully embrace your authentic self and let your creative juices flow. Where are you making yourself small? When you make your New Moon Wishes, Jupiter wants us to wish big, but something you can believe in. Nothing kills dreams quicker than self-doubt.
