On November 9th 2026 (7:02am GMT), a New Moon at 16° Scorpio will offer you the opportunity to dissolve into the darkness so that you may be reborn into the light.
Yet even the most longed for transformations can be challenging and thus, with a square to the South Node-Jupiter-Mars conjunction in Leo, the tension during this lunation may just prove to be ripe.
As the Universe asks you to willingly relinquish a past way of being, in order to fully evolve forward.
With the North Node in Aquarius acting as an opposing force in proceedings, the call to detach is audible. Are you therefore ready to release an old identity that no longer serves your present day reality.
With Mercury and Venus still retrograde, in Scorpio and Libra respectively, you may need to reflect on things a little deeper, especially when it comes to relational issues, power dynamics, money matters, and the balance required to maintain harmony in all these areas. As such, are there perspectives, situations, dynamics, or behavioural patterns that need to radically shift in order for things to align.
In opposition to Chiron (Rx Aries), there may be a sensitive quality to considerations, as historic wounds get triggered by emerging circumstances that attempt to push you in the direction of healing - one painful awakening at a time.
With the question being, what would it be like to experience life without the anxiety or pain that may presently be arising.
Adding further intensity to the moment will be a yod, courtesy of Uranus (Rx Gemini) and Saturn (widening its conjunction to Neptune, both Rx Aries) making an inconjunct to Mercury. Here the struggle to adapt to the needs of the moment may be made clear, as you are asked to let go of how things have been, in order to grasp how they might be.
Asking, what could life look like on the other side of fear.
As the Moon’s ruling planet, Pluto (Aquarius), will be heavily involved in proceedings, it may be time to relinquish any concept of control, in order to accept that something bigger than yourself is ultimately guiding you to where you need to be, regardless of how bumpy the ride along the way may prove.
By this cycle’s completion on April 20th 2027, at the Scorpio Full Moon, life may not look quite the same, but it might just have metamorphosised into something quite magical, given your ability to first sit in the dark.
