The Sky Now - An Astrology Blog (November 4)

There is a New Moon in Scorpio today at 5:14 PM EDT.  This lunation encourages us to go deep and explore our shadow self.   What intention we set now can lead to powerful transformations in our self and our life.  We will want to be careful however to not weave obsessions into our New Moon seeds, desires, spells and invocations. Issues around power, sex and finances are highlighted during Scorpio season and during Scorpio Moons.  This New Moon opposes Uranus, so there is a certain volatility present that can bring sudden change, both right now and over the course of the coming four weeks. Stay vigilant and utilize protection energies and tools.  Sudden unexpected events can lead to misadventure or worse now, wrong place wrong time sort of stuff.  Stay out of high risk zones for the next few days. Pause all risky behaviors.  A New Moon signals a new cycle.  A  Scorpio New Moon is a time for diving deep into the roots of our personal suffering.   All Water Element signs are driven by a need for emotional security. A sense of control is a key Scorpio emotional need.  Thus, examination of vulnerabilities in areas where we have agency such as thought processes, choices, empowerment of the energy of others over us, can be helpful now. Identifying and facing core fears, as well.  Scorpio is one of the most ambitious signs of the Zodiac, so this is a perfect Moon to create new goals and to set intention toward realizing them.
