New Moon in Scorpio: what it means for every sign
The new moon is exact on 9 November 2026 at 07:02 UTC (local dates can differ), at 16°53′ Scorpio. New moons are quiet beginnings, and Scorpio asks a searching question: what, and who, do you truly want to commit to? Mercury is still retrograde in Scorpio and Venus is still retrograde in Libra, but both turn direct within the week, so this is a moon for choosing your intention privately and letting it take shape as the month moves forward.
Read your Sun sign below, and your rising sign too if you know it.

♈ Aries
Aries
This new moon begins a fresh cycle in your eighth house of shared resources, trust and deep change. Something you have been holding onto, out of habit or fear, may be ready to go. You do not have to make a dramatic exit. Name what you are willing to release, even if only to yourself. Letting go of one weight makes room for something that truly supports you.
The new moon falls opposite your Sun, in your seventh house of partnerships. A relationship, personal or professional, is asking for a clearer agreement. Think about what you are prepared to commit to and what you need in return. With Venus, your ruler, still retrograde, take your time before deciding. A quiet, honest intention is enough for now.
Your sixth house of routine, health and daily work receives a fresh start. This is a good moment to change one small habit rather than overhaul your whole week. Notice what drains you and what steadies you. A simpler routine will give you more energy than a busier one. Begin with something you can keep doing.
The new moon lights your fifth house of creativity, joy and self-expression. Something that brings you pleasure deserves room to grow. You may need to persuade yourself it is worth the time, and it is. Start small: one song, one page, one afternoon set aside for play. Your enthusiasm can draw others in.
A new cycle begins in your fourth house of home, family and emotional foundations. You may feel drawn to make your space more peaceful, or to settle something unspoken at home. Mars and Jupiter in your sign push you forward, but this moon asks you to tend your roots first. Rest where you feel safe. Strong foundations make bold moves easier.
Your third house of communication, learning and everyday connections is seeded. A conversation you have been rehearsing may finally find the right words. With Mercury, your ruler, still retrograde until mid-month, draft before you send. Choose one thing to learn or one person to reconnect with. Small exchanges carry more weight than usual.
The new moon falls in your second house of money, belongings and self-worth. It is a good moment to set an intention about what you value, not only what you own. Venus, your ruler, is retrograde in your sign and turns direct soon, so save big purchases until after that. Look at where your energy is going. Investing in yourself counts.
This new moon is in your own sign, so this is your personal new year in miniature. You may feel ready to start again in how you present yourself or what you want from life. Mercury is still retrograde in your sign, so let your intention form quietly before you share it. Be clear about what you are committing to. What you begin now has staying power.
Your twelfth house of rest, endings and the inner world is seeded. You may feel quieter than usual, and that is useful. Something is ending so that something new can begin when your birthday season arrives. Make time for solitude, sleep and reflection. An intention set privately now can guide you for the year ahead.
The new moon begins a cycle in your eleventh house of friendships, groups and long-term hopes. Think about the people who truly support you and the future you are working towards. One of your hopes may be ready for a fresh start, or a quiet goodbye. Reach out to someone who shares your values. Community grows from small gestures.
Your tenth house of career, purpose and public life receives a fresh start. A goal you have been considering may feel more possible, or you may see that your direction needs to change. You do not need every answer yet. Set an intention about the kind of work that feels meaningful. Clarity will grow as Mercury moves forward.
The ninth house of beliefs, learning and wider horizons is seeded. You may feel drawn to study, travel or a new spiritual practice. Something you have believed for a long time could deserve a fresh look. Follow what genuinely interests you rather than what you think you should do. Curiosity is your best guide this month.
