The outside ring is the planets. The inside ring is the asteroids, centaurs and other points I use.

We have a Scorpio New Moon on 9th November 2026 at 7.02 GMT. The Sabian Symbol Scorpio is 17 — A woman fathering her own child.

This is a powerful image of inner creation and self-determination, suggesting that something new can emerge through our own connection with spirit, rather than through expectations, beliefs or identities we have acquired along the way. Dane Rudhyar also understood this symbol as the creative power of the Divine working through us.

This theme of creative power is also very strong in the cards post, so it clearly arising at this time. We just need to be careful to not do everything. by ourselves. What are you bringing into existence? With Scorpio there’s always a strong emphasis regeneration and rebirth, especially as we have been journeying into so much past territory.

But that which we are bringing out into expression is emerging through recognising and trusting the creative potential already present within us, as much as a review of the past, with all the retrograde energy. Energy that has been directed inward for so long now finds its outward expression, allowing our projects and decisions to advance forward.

So this fortnight is a strong Moon for ritual, setting up a very positive trajectory and meaningful progression: reassessment, recognition, and then the challenge of actually living what we’re coming to understand.

So thankfully we are moving towards the end of a very difficult period of astrology. With Venus and Mercury both retrograde, we have been re-circling many decisions we have taken, mulling and pondering over the areas of life that Scorpio and Libra govern. To know what area of your chart this rules, visit my circle community where I will tell you.

We have been kept in a kind of suspension, waiting for results, answers, or more clarity on matters before we move on or forward. The truth is that this is not a time for results. Like I said, it’s a setting up time. And a time of stretching our wings, getting ready for flight. We have only just started building, yielding results is next year.

With both Venus and Mercury turning forward motion soon on 13-14 November, we may begin to recognise what we genuinely want to be doing, in other words what we love doing. That might be interwoven with what we value in our lives and what we then need to do to move forward to harness more joy and heart warmth.

What’s interesting is that this New Moon falls exactly on the chart’s ascendant. With the New Moon rising on the Ascendant, this new moon is intensely personal. The Scorpio element pulls us into protected places in our psyche, it’s an instinctive, protective place.

And because Mars rules both the Scorpio Ascendant and New Moon, we’re brought directly back to Mars conjunct Jupiter and the South Node, which I’ll discuss further down.

It’s as though our identity, our sense of purpose and the ways we seek protection and safety are all brought together. This is about our relationship with ourselves, what have we constructed about ourselves, that isn’t necessarily real now but defined who we were, and what we are ready to let go of, or at least be less fixed on, allowing more room for alternatives and freshness. Looking more closely chart though, it’s saying more to us than reassessing our identity.

That’s because Mars is coming up to conjoin Jupiter in Leo. In the New Moon chart it sits in the 10th house, which is our house of ambition, public roles and our desire for recognition. So this is true of these times. But of course this conjunction will occur in your own chart in a different house (unless you are a Scorpio rising).

Leo is about self-love, confidence, dignity, personal authority and leadership connected with the heart. Mars provides the impetus and drive to act, and Jupiter the expansion, amplifies our convictions, enthusiasm and confidence.

What’s more intriguing is that Mars-Jupiter is with the South Node. This is one of November’s more important configurations, in the background for much of the month rather than only at the exact conjunction of Mars-Jupiter. The South Node asks us a specific question: How do we express our personal power and leadership?

Jupiter on the South Node is about being tied to big ideas, possibly familiar ones from the past, which suggests we may have become overly attached to ideas about what our lives should amount to, or how to get there. This is especially true with that energy in the 10th house of this New Moon chart. The familiar ways in which we prove ourselves, even to ourselves, have perhaps reached a point of saturation where they no longer serve us, or it’s no longer sustainable. Both Mars and Jupiter amplify and emphasise how much energy we invest in fulfilling those ideas.

Of course the shadow of Leo, which we might get with the South Node involved, is excessive pride or over confidence, like an inversed insecurity. The Mars–Jupiter conjunction could energise those old patterns, perhaps even making us feel more convinced than ever that we’re right, and we need to be mindful of reckless expansion or movement for the sake of it.

Equally, the heart is the source of personal authority. This astrology can provide us with the courage, dignity and determination to make things happen. We might need to start reassessing how we carry ourselves, how we walk, even things like posture count a lot for uplifting the heart and voice. November and the next few months is an opportunity to develop our inner authority through cultivating some self-respect and self-love.

This then also helps redefine or rediscover the pleasure of life. When we are in our bodies, noticing how we hold ourselves, it contributes also to how we bring ourselves into life. It helps us work out what we want to contribute to and what we don’t. Participating in life, that is through direct experience, as opposed to scrolling through our phones, is essential for joy, it is where we thrive, as humans.

It is also that case that not every experience serves some sort of larger purpose. Exploration and adventure is the direction, rather than another grand idea, so instead follow the flirts of what naturally engage, stimulate and awaken. This is a time for creative and sexual energy expansion.

What’s good is that Mars-Jupiter conjoins after Venus and Mercury go direct. Mercury and Venus station direct on 13–14 November, following weeks of reassessing our beliefs, perceptions, relationships, values and desires. We may be beginning to recognise what we want to change and where our previous understanding has limited us.

And because Mercury and Venus will have only just stationed direct, the new direction they are calling us towards is still only developing. For Venus direct, see my next post in a few days. But expect the next fortnight to yield important turning points in all things Venus. We might discover that our need to be in control of a relationship or a situation comes from a deeper fundamental fear of being unsafe, vulnerable, rejected or hurt.

I think the clearer direction for this astrology is to change our relationship with purpose, achievement and our creative fire and see how we want to bring ourselves into our purpose in a different way. It’s about our capacity to feel, love, receive and be touched by life.

What’s more, Mars has entered his shadow phase in preparation for his retrograde motion. That will bring a longer reassessment of all things Mars and Leo, particularly the area of our chart that has Leo on the cusp. This process of discovery will extend into 2027, as we work out our will, purpose and direction, reconsidering what we pursue, how we use our energy and where we invest it. More on that later, as Mars won’t turn retrograde until January. For now, it’s good to recognise just how strongly Leo is being emphasised, because what happens now may give us a strong taste of what we’ll be working through in the first few months of 2027.
