Scorpio x New Moon: Rebirth, Release, and the Power of Introspection

Below is an excerpt from my 'Scorpio Season Workbook' available HERE.

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
— Viktor Frankl

The New Moon in Scorpio on November 1 offers a unique opportunity for transformation and renewal. This lunar phase is an ideal moment to explore what we’re ready to release, especially as it follows an intense eclipse season. Scorpio, known for its deep emotional resonance and powerful transformative energy, invites us to pause, reflect, and confront any lingering shadows. This isn’t just a fresh start—it’s a profound inner shift, a resetting of our emotional and spiritual landscapes to prepare for what lies ahead.

Expect the new lunar cycle to bring a blend of intensity, emotional clarity, and an urge to face unresolved aspects of ourselves and our relationships. Scorpio’s energy encourages us to embrace the parts of ourselves we often shy away from, whether it’s hidden fears, unspoken desires, or emotional scars. When their reptile heads peak above the surface of our emotional waters. it's not in preparation to pounce and drag us deep under. It's simply for us to notice and navigate our path ahead fully aware of their presence.

Scorpio’s Depth: The Power of Shadow Work and Rebirth

Scorpio energy is all about uncovering truths, and during a New Moon, this drive becomes deeply internal. It’s a time when we’re encouraged to address the parts of ourselves that lie hidden in the subconscious, allowing for a release of emotional baggage. Scorpio’s influence can stir up complex feelings—everything from unresolved grief to rekindled passion to sudden awareness of fears or insecurities. But there’s strength in exploring these depths, as Scorpio’s guiding energy promises transformation and healing once we face what’s lurking in the shadows.

My special Scorpio guided meditation journey is designed with this transformative shadow work in mind, available HERE.

Mars, Scorpio’s traditional ruler, is also in Scorpio at this time, amplifying our drive for emotional intensity and transparency. Mars pushes us to explore these emotional territories with bravery and authenticity, making it an ideal time to confront difficult truths with courage. If you’ve been avoiding a particular issue or holding onto habits that limit your growth, this New Moon can bring the resolve needed to break free. Embrace practices like journaling, meditation, or even simply sitting in silence to connect with this energy, as it’s all about turning inward to foster meaningful change.

Astrological Transits: Uranus, Saturn, and Neptune Weigh In

Adding more voltage to the Scorpionic charge, is the opposition from Uranus in Taurus, creating a tug-of-war between the desire for stability and the call for radical change. Uranus, known for its disruptive, rebellious energy, can shake up any stagnant areas in our lives, encouraging us to break out of old routines and approach challenges with fresh eyes. This transit may manifest in unpredictable ways, sparking insights or unexpected shifts, both personally and collectively. For some, it might look like a sudden change in career, a relationship re-evaluation, or even a shift in perspective that challenges long-held beliefs.

In tandem with the New Moon, Saturn retrograde in Pisces introduces a note of introspection, prompting us to learn from past experiences as we set new intentions. Saturn’s influence can heighten our awareness of insecurities, especially around long-term goals or personal limitations. However, this isn’t a call to dwell on what isn’t working; rather, it’s an invitation to use those insights to refine our ambitions and take a steady, considered approach to growth. If you’re feeling uncertain, seek guidance from mentors, friends, or spiritual practices that resonate with you. Saturn’s presence emphasizes learning, patience, and resilience, reminding us that growth often requires both courage and introspection.

Neptune, currently moving through Pisces, forms a harmonious trine to the New Moon and brings a layer of mystical, intuitive insight. Neptune’s energy blurs boundaries, encouraging us to look beyond the physical and material realms and tune into our inner voice and dreams. This is an excellent time to delve into spiritual practices, such as meditation, energy healing, or dream analysis. Neptune’s influence softens Scorpio’s intensity, helping us find creative solutions to challenges and inspiring us to trust our instincts.

Mars Direct will unclog the flow

Just days after the New Moon, Mars completes its retrograde on November 3, allowing us to move forward with any decisions or actions that have been delayed over the past few weeks. Mars’ retrograde period often brings a sense of pause or re-evaluation in our pursuit of goals and ambitions, and with it ending, there’s a renewed energy for forward momentum. Mars in Scorpio encourages us to act with intention, especially after a period of introspection. The key here is balance—acting boldly, but without impulsivity.

Mars’ return to direct motion can also be a boon for relationships and personal projects. If you’ve felt stuck or unsure, this shift in Mars’ energy can help clear mental fog and inspire decisive action. However, with Scorpio’s influence still strong, approach any action with emotional clarity, letting Scorpio’s focus on authenticity guide you. Take the time to check in with your intentions before diving in, as Scorpio asks for deliberate and meaningful steps.

Collective Feelings and the Global Stage

On a larger scale, these transits hold significant implications for the global collective. The opposition between Uranus and the Scorpio New Moon could stir up issues related to power dynamics, resources, and societal structures. Hello US election week. Uranus challenges us to rethink outdated systems, and in Taurus, it points to issues of environmental sustainability, economic stability, and the ways we interact with the natural world. This aspect, combined with Scorpio’s transformative influence, may prompt shifts in our relationship with the Earth and spark conversations around resource conservation and responsible living.

Meanwhile, Saturn’s influence in Pisces touches on themes of compassion, boundaries, and the role of collective responsibility. As we confront ongoing societal issues—from economic instability to technological advances that blur ethical lines—Saturn’s retrograde prompts us to take a balanced approach. We may be compelled to revisit recent milestones, consider how technology influences our lives, and face ethical dilemmas as a society. This period may feel like a historical turning point, challenging us to integrate lessons from the past with the evolving reality of the present.
