Scorpio season kicks off November with a New Moon on November 1st. It’s at the very end of the first decan of Scorpio which is pure, undiluted Scorpio energy: secretive, controlling, and mysterious, with penetrating desire.
This New Moon will be at 9Scorpio35 on the precipice of the second decan which is sub-ruled by Pisces/Jupiter/Neptune. This takes a little of the sting out of the scorpion’s tail while ramping up this sign’s watery, intuitive, and psychic nature. Scorpio gives the New Moon both the desire and the ability to regenerate. It’s strength and determination help us take the first steps on the path that will lead to the fulfillment of our intentions and wishes.
The astrological weather has been on the turbulent side here lately. Some people are still feeling the intensity of this past Full Moon in Aries and anxious to be rid of it. Mars rules both the last Aries and coming Scorpio moon. He is not content to stand idly by and just let things find their own way. This, however, is the approach I’ve taken since Hurricane Helene paid me a visit. So far, it’s working okay, but it’s driving Mars a bit nutty. I’m determined to keep him sidelined a bit longer, though, instead of rushing into major decisions that will have very long-lasting effects. It’s hurry up and wait time.
