New Moon in Scorpio

New Moon | Scorpio | Nov 20, 2025

What a potent chart. This new moon evokes the full spectrum of Scorpio, from the underworld journey to the rebirth of the rising phoenix. What is certainly clear by now is that major cycles are closing. This new moon is a reflection. A mirror to the past and an opportune catalyst for a swift and final death to the version of you who needed those painful lessons to evolve.

Let’s explore the chart:

The moon arrives in the early hours of the dark night. Coming in at 28 degrees of Scorpio, and concurrent to Mercury retrograde’s cazimi with the sun. The presence of Mercury at the very start of his new cycle — at the middle of his own underworld journey into the past is significant.

This new moon is sure to offer us a reflection from the past. A moment of deep contemplation and integration. The mind is pulling focus to the cycles we have endured, and the wisdom gleaned. This new moon asks us to leave something in the past, permanently.

The version of you who experienced deep pain, suffering, and discomfort. The version who contorted themselves to fit into the spaces you didn’t quite belong in the first place. The version of you who willing or unwilling, conscious or unconscious, chose a pattern of disempowerment. The power imbalances and control games. The manipulation, seduction, and dark forces you have fallen victim to.

This is the funeral of the version of you who was innocent, ignorant, and naive.

You are wiser now, carrying the scars of the places you’ve been broken and wounded. This new moon invites you to look back, and shift the perspective. From victim to victorious. You not only survived the chaos, but now are ready to rise above.

This year has been a year of shedding. The end of many cycles. The snake eating his tail, shedding skins. The last several years have been testing, trying for many of us. This new moon offers an opportunity for integration and release.

The chart holds a powerful grand trine in the element of Water. The new moon makes trine to Saturn, Neptune, and Jupiter. A powerful opportunity to heal, alchemize, and transcend the suffering of the past and write a new story of redemption.

The seeds for the way you wish to move through the world on the other side of this portal are ripe with long term potential. The version of you that you are seeding now, with this new moon, will carry you forward over the next 6 months.

The new moon is also charged by an opposition from Uranus, the great awakener. Uranus brings shock, disruption, disturbance, and upheaval to the field. Uranus is lightning. Uranus abruptly shakes us loose of the patterns we are no longer meant to carry. In this Scorpio new moon, Uranus pushes us to transform old pain into purpose. Uranus brings an element of surprise to the process. There is something revealed today that might be unexpected, but also deeply aligned with the rebirth that is transpiring.

Happy new moon
