A Powerful New Beginning: New Moon in Scorpio

Updated: Sep 30


The upcoming New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st, 2024, presents a potent time for deep transformation and introspection, magnified by a series of intense celestial alignments. As the New Moon forms a harmonious sextile to Saturn retrograde, it invites us to lay down solid foundations for the changes we seek, while a supportive sextile between Jupiter retrograde and Chiron retrograde offers opportunities for healing and wisdom through past lessons. At the same time, the cosmic tension of Mars at 29 degrees in Cancer opposing Pluto at 29 degrees of Capricorn, and the formation of a Grand Water Trine with Mars, Mercury in Scorpio, and Neptune in Pisces, sets the stage for profound emotional revelations and spiritual awakenings. Lastly this New Moon is inconjunct to the North Node in Aries, new beginning could come about in weird seemingly disconnected ways.

Whenever the Sun and Moon meet up in a Zodiac sign, we have an opportunity for a fresh start. In the sign of Scorpio, and at 9 degrees, it is a chance to connect to our deepest darkest hidden wants and desires, and bring them to reality. No more playing scared, the number 9 means the end of something. As with each new moon we have a chance to focus our intentions and we write out 10 wishes, and with this being a water sign, using that element in our ceremony. The Moon is at its peak at 5:47 am MST, the closer you set them to that time the better. Adding in the information shared below to those intentions will help as well.



Key Cosmic Alignments: Understanding the Energies

1. New Moon in Scorpio Sextile Saturn Retrograde

  • Themes of Transformation and Responsibility: This New Moon in Scorpio, a sign known for its depth, intensity, and regenerative qualities, aligns with Saturn in retrograde from the sign of Pisces, encouraging us to review our commitments and responsibilities. The sextile aspect brings a supportive energy, suggesting that any groundwork laid now, even if it involves revisiting past obligations or structures, can lead to long-lasting transformation. This is an ideal time to make serious decisions or commitments that require discipline and strong healthy boundaries.

  • Focus on Inner Strength and Resilience: Saturn retrograde in Pisces pushes us to rely on inner strength and wisdom. As this planet of discipline retrogrades, it asks us to revisit the structures in our lives that no longer serve us and rebuild with greater authenticity. In sextile to the New Moon, there is a strong call to align our deepest desires (Scorpio) with practical steps forward (Saturn).

2. Jupiter Retrograde Sextile Chiron Retrograde

  • Opportunities for Healing and Growth: Jupiter, the planet of expansion and higher learning, in retrograde in Gemini, forms a harmonious sextile with Chiron, the Wounded Healer, retrograde in Aries. This aspect facilitates a gentle healing process, where past wounds and traumas (Chiron) are reviewed under the expansive, philosophical light of Jupiter. It's a cosmic call to reflect on our past experiences, extract wisdom, and find new ways to grow. This alignment is particularly beneficial for healing self-confidence issues and embracing personal growth through understanding and forgiveness.

3. Mars at 29 Degrees Opposing Pluto at 29 Degrees of Capricorn

  • Intense Power Struggles and Breakthroughs: Mars at the critical 29th degree of Cancer opposes Pluto, also at 29 degrees of Capricorn, creating a potent and charged dynamic. Mars, representing action, drive, and assertiveness, is in a highly emotional and reactive sign (Cancer) at the last degree, where its energy is most concentrated and urgent. Opposite Pluto, the planet of power, transformation, and the unconscious, this aspect can signify a powerful confrontation or culmination of power struggles. This is a critical point for facing deep-seated fears or shadow aspects within ourselves or in our relationships. This alignment can trigger intense conflicts or power dynamics but also offers a chance for profound transformation and release. In Cancer we see a powerful woman taking a stand against a man, Capricorn who is instilling fear in others. 29 is a critical degree, and a test will be given. To pass you must balance the feminine and masculine. The Maternal with the Paternal. Pluto has only recently ended its retrograde and has just a few weeks left in the sign of Capricorn. This is not a time for going back, but a time for transforming and moving forward.

4. Grand Water Trine: Mars in Cancer, Mercury in Scorpio, Neptune in Pisces

  1. Flow of Emotional and Intuitive Insight: 

    The Grand Water Trine involving Mars in Cancer, Mercury in Scorpio, and Neptune in Pisces creates a harmonious flow of emotional energy and intuition. This trine allows us to tap into our deepest feelings, express our emotions with clarity and compassion (Mercury in Scorpio), and align our actions with our spiritual and emotional truth (Mars in Cancer, Neptune in Pisces). This is an ideal time to trust our instincts and engage in creative or spiritual pursuits. The energy is fluid and empathetic, enhancing our capacity to connect on an emotional level and intuitively understand the deeper currents within ourselves and others. A Grand Trine means you are giving an opportunity, now you must act. Trust where your intuition is leading you.
