What the Sky Is Saying This Week
November 8 – November 14, 2026 · General Forecast
The week opens in the last hours of darkness before the New Moon. If you are reading this on Saturday night, Sunday is already pulling something toward its beginning. The Moon is in Scorpio — it has been there since Saturday evening — and at 2:02 AM Eastern on Monday morning, November 9th, it joins the Sun at 16 degrees and 53 minutes of Scorpio, and the New Moon arrives. This is the planting moment the entire balsamic week before was preparing you for. Whatever has been clearing, releasing, and composting since the Last Quarter in Cancer — it has been making room for this.
November 9th carries weight beyond the sky. It is Kristallnacht — the Night of Broken Glass — the anniversary of November 9, 1938, when Nazi forces unleashed a coordinated pogrom against Jewish communities across Germany and Austria, burning synagogues, shattering storefronts, and beginning in earnest what would become the Holocaust. And in 2026, the Ethiopian Jewish holiday of Sigd falls at sunset on Sunday the 8th, running through nightfall on the 9th — a day of covenant renewal, of ascent toward God, and of the Beta Israel community's centuries-old longing for Jerusalem. Both of these land on the New Moon in Scorpio: one a wound, one a prayer. Scorpio holds both without flinching. The sign of death and transformation has always known that grief and intention can occupy the same hour.
This New Moon in Scorpio squares Mars and Jupiter in Leo — a wide square, but felt. There is ambition in the air that wants more than this quiet beginning can immediately accommodate. The New Moon is still touching retrograde Mercury, which means the intention you plant is made of material you already have — old knowing, circled questions, things you've been weighing since October. That is not a limitation. It is an instruction: what you are ready to commit to now is something your gut has already vetted. The new information can come later. The seed goes in tonight from what you already know.
The Moon moves into Sagittarius on Tuesday the 10th at 8:35 AM Eastern, lifting the week's energy out of Scorpio's deep water and into something more expansive and philosophical. Sagittarius wants to see the wider horizon, and after last week's Cazimi and this week's New Moon, a little perspective feels earned. Wednesday the 11th is Veterans Day in the United States and Remembrance Day in Canada and the UK — a day that already carries the themes of sacrifice, service, and the weight of what has been survived. The Moon in Sagittarius that day gives it a searching, meaning-making quality: what did it cost, and what does it stand for.
Thursday the 12th at 8:27 PM Eastern, the Moon enters Capricorn, shifting the energy from the philosophical to the practical and structural. And then Friday the 13th — yes, the 13th — arrives as the week's most consequential day. Mercury stations direct in the morning at 5 degrees Scorpio, and Venus stations direct in the evening at 22 degrees Libra. Both retrogrades end on the same day. This is uncommon. The Mercury retrograde in Scorpio has been running since October 24th; the Venus retrograde has been running since October 3rd. Six weeks of review, of reopened conversations, of relationship reconsideration and slowed financial decisions — all of it ends on Friday the 13th. The month's gear shift happens here. The second half of November belongs to forward motion. What was waiting can be sent. What was unsettled can be decided. What you held back can finally go.
This is the darkest and deepest New Moon of the year. Scorpio New Moons ask for honest intentions about the things we rarely speak aloud — intimacy, power, shared resources, the parts of life we don't post about. What you plant here tends to be quiet, private, and permanent. The seed that goes in under Scorpio comes up transformed.
Key Events This Week
Dates & Degrees · Eastern Standard Time
Sunday is the eve of the New Moon — the final dark breath before the seed goes in. The Moon has been in Scorpio since Saturday evening and is moving toward its conjunction with the Sun in the early hours of Monday morning. The energy today is still, heavy with potential, like soil that's been turned. At sunset Sunday, Sigd begins — the Ethiopian Jewish holiday of covenant, longing, and ascent. Observed by the Beta Israel community, Sigd falls on the 29th of Cheshvan each year and has historically been a day of fasting, prayer, and collective petition: a turning toward Jerusalem, a renewal of the covenant. In 2026, Sigd opens directly into the New Moon in Scorpio, and that convergence is worth sitting with. A community's prayer for return, for belonging, for the fulfillment of something ancient and promised — that is a Scorpionic intention if there ever was one. Light a candle Sunday night and let it hold both.
The New Moon arrives in the small hours of Monday morning, while most people are asleep — which is fitting. Scorpio beginnings are rarely loud. This New Moon widely conjuncts retrograde Mercury (still backward in Scorpio) and widely squares Mars and Jupiter in Leo, which means the desire to act is real, but the moment is still asking for interiority first. This is a beginning made entirely of reviewed material — old convictions, old questions, things you've been carrying since October. That is not a flaw. It means what you plant today has already been tested. At nightfall Monday, Sigd closes. And November 9th is the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, 1938 — when violence shattered the illusion that Jews in Germany were safe. In Scorpio, we understand that some wounds don't heal by being forgotten. They are held, witnessed, and carried forward into whatever we are building next. The New Moon in Scorpio is big enough to hold both the covenant and the cost.
The Moon shifts from Scorpio's deep water into Sagittarius's fire, and the energy of the week opens up. The New Moon seed is already in the ground — now the attention can lift toward the horizon. Sagittarius wants to know what it all means, where it's headed, what the story is. After two weeks of Scorpionic depth, that question feels genuinely welcome. This is a good day to write, to study, to plan travel, or to have a conversation that requires a wider perspective than the last week allowed.
The Moon in Sagittarius on Veterans Day gives this observance its characteristic searching quality — the desire to understand sacrifice, to make meaning of what was survived, to connect the individual cost to something larger than the individual. Sagittarius is the sign of the philosopher, the pilgrim, and the long view, and on a day that asks us to look back at what was given for the future we live in, that's an appropriate lens. If there are veterans in your life, this is the day when a sincere conversation means more than any ceremony.
The Capricorn Moon shifts the week from the philosophical to the structural. Capricorn wants to know what's actually being built, what the plan is, and whether there's a solid foundation under it. After Sunday's New Moon intention and Tuesday's expansive Sagittarius horizon, Capricorn asks: okay, but what are you actually going to do? The timing is perfect — the Capricorn Moon arrives the night before the double direct station, which means by the time Mercury and Venus turn forward Friday, the Moon is in the sign most suited to put that forward motion to practical use.
Friday the 13th delivers something the whole autumn has been building toward: both Mercury and Venus station direct on the same day. Mercury turns direct in the morning at 5 degrees Scorpio — the exact degree where it first entered its pre-retrograde shadow on October 4th. Venus turns direct in the evening at 22 degrees Libra, ending its retrograde that began October 3rd. Two planets reversing direction on the same day is uncommon, and the relief is palpable. Six weeks of review — of reopened conversations, returned exes, reconsidered values, delayed financial decisions, and slowed communications — all of it begins to move forward today. This is the month's real hinge. Don't be surprised if the day brings a phone call, a decision that's been waiting, or a conversation that's suddenly ready to complete itself. Let it. The second half of November is a different season than the first.
The week closes under the Capricorn Moon, still digesting Friday's double direct station. This is a good Saturday for follow-through — the things that have been on hold for six weeks are ready to be moved, and Capricorn provides the steadiness to move them without fanfare. No drama required. Just the quiet, purposeful work of someone who knows what they're building. The seed is in. The soil is warming. The week that began in the deep dark of a Scorpio New Moon ends in the most structurally grounded sign in the zodiac — which is exactly right.
The Moon's Journey This Week
Day by Day · Eastern Standard Time
This Week's Guidance
Plant only what you're ready to tend. The New Moon in Scorpio on Monday morning is not a moon for wishful thinking. Scorpio is the sign of commitment, depth, and the kind of transformation that requires you to stay in the room. What you set your intention on Monday has long roots. Make sure you mean it — not as a pressure, but as a gift to your future self.
Hold the weight of November 9th. The New Moon falling on Kristallnacht is not a coincidence the sky offers lightly. In the folk magic tradition, the ancestors are always close when a new cycle begins — and on a day that carries so much collective grief, the work of witnessing matters. You don't need to observe the anniversary formally for it to inform how you plant. Light something for the ones who didn't survive. Then plant for the ones who did.
Wait for Friday before sending the important things. If you have a significant conversation, a financial decision, a creative pitch, or a relationship negotiation that's been on hold — Friday the 13th is the green light. Both Mercury and Venus turning direct on the same day creates a genuine forward momentum. What you send or decide after Friday has the full support of both planets moving forward. Before Friday, let the retrograde finish its work.
Recognize the hinge when it arrives. The structure of this autumn — six weeks of review, two retrogrades in Scorpio and Libra, a Cazimi, a New Moon, and then a double direct station — has been one of the more deliberately paced astrological seasons in recent memory. November 13th is where that structure pivots. The second half of November belongs to different energy than the first. Let yourself feel the shift rather than rushing past it.
Your Sign This Week
November 8 – November 14, 2026 · All 12 Signs
The New Moon in Scorpio on Monday morning falls in your eighth house of intimacy, shared resources, and transformation — the deepest, most private corner of your chart. What you are planting Monday is not for public view. It lives in the territory of trust, of shared money or emotional resources, of what you owe and what you are owed. Scorpio New Moons in the eighth house are among the most potent in the whole cycle, and the fact that Mercury is still retrograde at the moment of the New Moon means the intention you're setting is made of something you've been knowing for a while. Say it plainly to yourself, even if you say it to no one else.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon moves through your ninth house of belief and long horizons — a welcome lift after the week's intensity. Wednesday's Veterans Day Moon in Sagittarius asks what you stand for, and you have an honest answer. Thursday's Capricorn Moon settles into your tenth house of career and public standing, and the week begins to turn toward structure and accountability. Then Friday arrives: Mercury stations direct in your eighth house, clearing up a financial matter or a conversation about trust that has been in flux since October 24th, and Venus turns direct in your seventh house of partnership. A relationship dynamic that has been in review is ready to move. Something you and someone else have been circling — a decision, a conversation, a commitment — is finally ready to complete itself.
Watch For
Saturn is in your own sign all week — a steady, sometimes heavy presence in your first house of identity. The eighth-house New Moon and the seventh-house Venus direct together are asking you to be honest about what kind of partnership or shared commitment you actually want, not just what feels comfortable. Saturn in Aries pushes that question harder than usual. Don't sidestep it.
The New Moon in Scorpio falls directly opposite your sign, in your seventh house of partnership. This is the New Moon of relationships — of what you are choosing to begin, or commit to, or formalize with another person. Because it's the house of the "other," the New Moon here is always slightly more mysterious than most: what is beginning isn't entirely under your control. Someone else is part of the equation. What are you planting in a close relationship on Monday morning? What do you want this partnership to become over the next six months?
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your eighth house, turning the week's attention toward shared finances and deep trust. A good day to let someone in to the part of yourself you usually manage alone. Wednesday, the Moon in Sagittarius brings a philosophical cast to intimacy — big questions are available, and worth asking. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon moves into your ninth house of belief and travel, grounding the week in something you're trying to understand or build a conviction around. Friday is the week's hinge: Mercury turns direct in your seventh house, and a conversation or agreement that stalled in a relationship since late October is suddenly ready to complete. Venus turns direct in your sixth house — a health, work, or daily routine matter that has felt uncertain begins to clarify. The second half of the week moves forward in a way the first half could not.
Watch For
Uranus has been retrograde in your own sign for months, offering a slow, churning disruption to your sense of identity and material security. The Scorpio New Moon in your seventh house is, among other things, asking whether a close partnership is keeping up with who you are becoming under that Uranus transit. The best relationships are the ones that can hold the changed version of you.
The New Moon in Scorpio lands in your sixth house of daily work, health, and routine — the house of what you do quietly, consistently, and often without recognition. What are you planting in your daily life on Monday? A new health practice, a changed work habit, a different approach to the thousand small decisions that make up a day? Sixth-house New Moons are not glamorous, but they are among the most practically powerful — the shape of your days is the shape of your life, and what you commit to here tends to stick. The fact that Mercury is still retrograde at the New Moon means the health or work change you're beginning is not a new idea. It's something you've been circling for weeks. Now the ground is ready.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your seventh house of partnership, turning the week's attention outward toward a close relationship. A good day for the kind of honest conversation that requires perspective rather than intensity. Wednesday brings that Sagittarius searching quality to a significant relationship — big questions, meaning-making, the feeling that someone who matters to you wants to understand what you're building together. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon moves into your eighth house of shared resources and intimacy, and the energy deepens. Friday is where the week turns: Mercury, your ruling planet, stations direct in your sixth house — which makes this personal. Whatever health or work matter has been in flux since October 24th begins to clarify. And Venus turns direct in your fifth house of creativity and romance. Something that has been in a complicated or slowed state in your creative life or a romantic connection is ready to move forward.
Watch For
Mercury stationing direct in your sixth house on Friday is one of the most personally relevant direct stations you'll experience all year. The clarity it brings to a work or health situation is the kind of clarity that only becomes available after weeks of reviewing what wasn't working. Trust what Friday reveals. Then act on it.
The New Moon in Scorpio lands in your fifth house of creativity, romance, play, and what you make with your own hands and heart. This is the New Moon of creative beginnings — a seed planted here tends to be something you pour yourself into, something that carries your signature. What creative project, romantic intention, or form of joyful expression are you willing to commit to on Monday morning? The fifth house is not a frivolous house; it is the house of what you have to offer that is uniquely yours. Planting a creative intention under the Scorpio New Moon is a serious, committed act. It tends to grow into something that surprises you.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your sixth house of daily work, bringing a philosophical, meaning-seeking quality to your routines mid-week. Wednesday, Veterans Day, the Moon continues that searching quality — a good day to think about what your daily practice is actually building toward. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon settles into your seventh house of partnership, and the energy becomes more relational and structural. If there is something practical to sort out with a partner or close collaborator, Thursday provides the steady atmosphere to do it. Friday: Mercury turns direct in your fifth house of creativity, and something in a creative project or romantic situation that has been unclear since late October becomes clear. Venus turns direct in your fourth house — a home or family matter that has been in slow review begins to resolve. Something in your domestic world is ready to move forward.
Watch For
Jupiter in Leo has been sitting in your second house of money and self-worth, and it forms a wide square with the New Moon in your fifth house. There is a question embedded in this geometry: are you investing in the creative or romantic life that actually reflects your value? Or are you still settling for something smaller than what you know you're worth? The New Moon in your fifth house is the invitation to stop settling.
The New Moon in Scorpio falls in your fourth house of home, family, and roots — the most private and foundational corner of your chart. What you are planting Monday is not for public view. It lives in the territory of where you live, who you come from, what feels like home in your bones. A Scorpio New Moon in the fourth house is one of the most emotionally significant of the year — it tends to initiate something in a family relationship, a living situation, or an internal sense of what you need in order to feel truly safe. What does home mean to you right now? What are you ready to build or rebuild in that territory?
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon moves through your fifth house of creativity and romance — a welcome lift after the week's depth. This is your natural territory: joy, play, the things you make and the people who light you up. Wednesday's Veterans Day Moon in Sagittarius carries that celebratory, meaning-making quality through the week's middle. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon enters your sixth house of daily work, grounding the energy in practical responsibility. And Friday — Mars, your week's companion in Leo, is still in its shadow period, and the Mars-inflected energy in your first house is a background presence all week — but Friday's main story is Mercury turning direct in your fourth house (a home or family conversation that's been in flux since October clarifies) and Venus turning direct in your third house (a communication matter, a neighborhood situation, or something involving a sibling becomes clearer and more forward-moving).
Watch For
Mars and Jupiter are both in your own sign, and the wide square between that Leo stellium and the Scorpio New Moon creates tension between your desire for visibility and recognition (Leo) and what the fourth house is asking: to tend something private, foundational, and unseen. Both are real needs. The New Moon asks you to honor the private one this week, even while the Leo drive pushes outward.
The New Moon in Scorpio falls in your third house of communication, learning, writing, and the people in your immediate world — siblings, neighbors, short-distance connections. What are you planting in the realm of how you express yourself? A writing project, a course of study, a conversation you've been circling and finally feel ready to have? Third-house New Moons in Scorpio are particularly pointed: they tend to initiate a communication that changes something. What have you been trying to say that you haven't said clearly yet? This is the week to say it — though with Mercury still retrograde at the moment of the New Moon, wait until after Friday to send the actual thing.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your fourth house of home and family, shifting the energy from the outward to the intimate. A good mid-week day for something domestic, for a conversation with someone in your household, or for tending to whatever in your living situation has needed attention. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon moves into your fifth house of creativity and romance — a grounded, practical energy around a creative or relational matter. And Friday: Mercury turns direct in your third house, which is personally significant for you. A communication that stalled, a piece of writing you couldn't complete, a conversation that went sideways in late October — all of it is ready to resolve. Venus turns direct in your second house — a financial matter or a question of self-worth that has been in slow review begins to move forward.
Watch For
The third house governs how you think, not just how you speak — and a Scorpio New Moon here is an invitation to go deeper in your own inner monologue than Virgo's analytical precision usually allows. What is the conversation you're having with yourself that you haven't fully admitted yet? The New Moon is a witness to that one too.
The New Moon in Scorpio lands in your second house of money, self-worth, and personal values — the house of what you actually consider valuable, not just what you've been told to value. What are you planting in your relationship with your own resources on Monday? A financial intention, a shift in how you regard your own worth, a new approach to what you spend your energy on? Scorpio New Moons in the second house tend to be honest in a way that's slightly uncomfortable: they ask you to look at what you genuinely value versus what you've been pretending to value for other people's benefit.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your third house of communication and nearby connections — a good day for honest conversations within your immediate circle. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon settles into your fourth house, and whatever domestic or family matter has been percolating becomes more structured and manageable. And then Friday: this week's most significant day for you personally. Venus, your ruling planet, stations direct at 22 degrees Libra — in your own first house of identity. Six weeks of Venus retrograde, of reconsidering your self-presentation, your values, what you find beautiful, what you're willing to offer in relationship — all of that begins to move forward again on Friday. Mercury turns direct in your second house the same day, clearing up a financial matter or a question about your own value that has been in flux since late October. Both of your money and your sense of self are getting a green light on Friday the 13th.
Watch For
Venus stationing direct in your own sign on Friday is genuinely significant — this is your planet, in your sign, ending its retrograde after six weeks of asking you to reconsider what you want and who you are in relationship. Whatever clarity arrives Friday is the distillation of everything the last six weeks has been trying to show you. Take it seriously.
The New Moon is in your own sign — your first house, the house of self, identity, and the face you turn toward the world. This is your New Moon, and it's a deeply personal one. What are you beginning in yourself? Not in your circumstances, not in your relationships, not in your career — but in the core of who you are and how you understand yourself? Scorpio first-house New Moons tend to initiate something in a person's sense of self that unfolds over the next six months in ways they couldn't entirely predict at the moment of planting. The fact that Mercury is still retrograde at the New Moon means this self-initiation is based on old self-knowledge, not new discoveries — which is to say, you already know what you're becoming. You've been circling it for weeks.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your second house of money and self-worth, turning the week's attention toward your material situation. Wednesday, a philosophical cast on financial or practical matters — a good day to think about what you're actually building, not just what you're managing. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon moves into your third house of communication, and the energy becomes more structured and expressive. Then Friday: Mercury turns direct in your first house — a matter of how you have been seen, a communication about your identity or intentions, something that felt stuck about how you were coming across — all of it begins to clear. Venus turns direct in your twelfth house, ending a long review of something private, hidden, or spiritually significant. Something you've been processing in the quiet is ready to begin its resolution.
Watch For
The New Moon in your first house, combined with Mercury turning direct in your first house on Friday, makes this one of the most personally charged weeks of your year. You are both planting and releasing at the same time — a beginning made of the material your recent review has prepared. Trust what you know about yourself, even if it's new to say out loud.
The New Moon in Scorpio lands in your twelfth house — the house of what is hidden, of spiritual experience, of the things we carry that we haven't named yet. Twelfth-house New Moons are mysterious and inward: they initiate something beneath the surface, in the realm of dreams, of private grief, of the spiritual work that doesn't have a form yet. What are you willing to release? What are you inviting in from the invisible world? These are the New Moon questions for you this week. They don't require an action plan. They require honesty with yourself in the quiet.
Tuesday, the Moon enters your own sign, and the energy lifts immediately. Tuesday and Wednesday are Sagittarius Moon days — your days, this week. Wednesday's Veterans Day in your sign gives the holiday a characteristically Sagittarian energy: the search for meaning in sacrifice, the long view, the question of what it stands for. These are your native questions and you carry them well. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon enters your second house of money and self-worth, and the energy becomes more practical. Then Friday: Mercury turns direct in your twelfth house, clearing up something that has been hidden or unresolved in your inner world since late October — a spiritual matter, a private situation, something you haven't been able to name. Venus turns direct in your eleventh house of community and long-term goals, ending a six-week review of a friendship, a group affiliation, or a collective aim. Something in that domain is ready to move forward.
Watch For
Jupiter, your ruling planet, is in Leo — your ninth house of philosophy, travel, and higher learning. It's been there since June, and it forms a wide square with the Scorpio New Moon in your twelfth house. There is a tension this week between the expansive, outward philosophical energy of Jupiter in your ninth and the quiet, inward, hidden quality of the twelfth-house New Moon. Both are yours. You can hold both. But Monday's New Moon asks you to honor the invisible one first.
The New Moon in Scorpio falls in your eleventh house of community, long-term goals, and collective belonging. What are you planting in your sense of where you fit in the larger world? A commitment to a group or organization, an intention around a long-term goal that serves more than just yourself, a decision about who your people are and what you share with them? Eleventh-house New Moons tend to initiate something in the realm of friendship, community, and the question of what you are building toward — not individually, but in concert with others. With the New Moon squaring Jupiter in Leo in your eighth house, the resources question is woven in: what shared investment or commitment is worth your trust?
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon moves through your twelfth house — a quiet, inward, spiritually attentive day. Good for rest, for processing, for the kind of inner work that doesn't need an audience. Thursday, the Moon enters your own sign, Capricorn — and you feel steadier, more yourself, more like you know what you're doing. The Capricorn Moon is your native territory. Then Friday: Mercury turns direct in your eleventh house, clearing up a group situation or a long-term goal that has been muddied since late October — a decision about an organization, a collective project, or a friendship that stalled. And Venus turns direct in your tenth house of career and public standing — a professional matter, a question of your reputation or your direction, that has been in slow review is ready to move forward.
Watch For
Saturn is your ruling planet and sits in Aries — your fourth house — all week. A home or family matter is operating as a sustained background pressure throughout everything the week is offering you. The eleventh-house New Moon is about collective belonging; the fourth-house Saturn is about your private roots. These are not competing demands — they are the same question asked from both ends. Where do you come from, and who do you belong with?
The New Moon in Scorpio falls in your tenth house of career, public life, and the shape of your contribution to the world. This is the New Moon of vocation — of what you are called to do, how you want to be known, and what you are ready to commit to professionally. A Scorpio New Moon in the tenth house tends to initiate something serious: a career intention, a shift in your public role, a commitment to a project or direction that you're willing to follow for the long haul. With Mercury still retrograde at the New Moon, the professional commitment you're making is based on what you've learned about yourself and your path over the last six weeks, not on something new. That's the right kind of foundation for a tenth-house beginning.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your eleventh house of community and collective goals — a naturally social, expansive day for a sign that naturally gravitates toward the broader human project. Wednesday's Veterans Day Moon in Sagittarius carries that sense of collective meaning and sacrifice through the week's midpoint. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon enters your twelfth house of hidden things and spiritual experience — a quieter, more inward Thursday than most. Then Friday: Mercury turns direct in your tenth house, clearing up a career situation or a matter of public identity that has been muddied since late October. And Venus turns direct in your ninth house of philosophy and expansion — a belief system, a travel plan, or an educational pursuit that has been in slow review is ready to move forward again. The second half of November is greener ground for your professional life than the first half was.
Watch For
Pluto has been in your own sign for years, and it stations direct this autumn at 3 degrees Aquarius — a slow, grinding movement toward forward motion in a long personal transformation. The Scorpio New Moon in your tenth house is asking a Plutonian question: what do you want to be known for that is genuinely true to who you are becoming, not who you were?
The New Moon in Scorpio falls in your ninth house of belief, philosophy, travel, and the wider horizon — the house of what you are trying to understand and what you are trying to build a conviction about. What are you planting in the realm of your beliefs on Monday? A commitment to a course of study, a travel intention, a spiritual practice, a conviction you've been developing about what you actually believe about the world? Ninth-house New Moons in Scorpio go deep into questions of faith and meaning — not the comfortable spiritual platitudes, but the honest reckoning: what do you actually believe, having lived what you've lived? Mercury still being retrograde at the New Moon means the answer to that question isn't new. You've been working it out for weeks. Now you're committing to it.
Tuesday's Sagittarius Moon enters your tenth house of career and public life — a good day to think about how your private beliefs and inner convictions are showing up (or not) in your public work. Thursday, the Capricorn Moon moves into your eleventh house of community and collective goals, and the energy becomes more socially oriented and structural. Then Friday: Mercury turns direct in your ninth house, clearing up a belief matter, a travel plan, an educational pursuit, or a publication that has been in flux since late October. And Venus turns direct in your eighth house — a financial matter involving shared resources, an intimate trust question, or something in the territory of what you share with another person begins to move forward after weeks of slow review.
Watch For
Neptune is in Aries — your second house — all year, dissolving the edges of your material security and asking what you actually value beyond the tangible. The ninth-house New Moon in Scorpio is a counterbalance: where Neptune makes your material footing feel uncertain, the ninth house offers conviction. What you believe in is a resource too. Plant something you're willing to stand on.
