New Moon in Scorpio
The New Moon in Scorpio returns each year when the Sun and Moon meet in the sign of depth, endings and renewal. In the Northern Hemisphere it falls in mid-autumn, as the days shorten and the year turns inward, and its mood matches the season: quiet, private and honest. This New Moon is less about bright fresh starts and more about planting a seed in ground you have just cleared.
What this New Moon is about
Every New Moon begins a lunar cycle, and the sign it falls in colors the intentions that cycle supports. Scorpio rules what is shared and what is hidden: joint finances, debts, inheritance, intimacy, grief and the psychological patterns that run beneath ordinary life. Its rulers, Mars and Pluto, add determination and a readiness to transform rather than patch things up.
That is why a Scorpio New Moon favors commitments that go to the root. Instead of a long wish list, it suits one serious decision you intend to keep: to end a habit, to deal with a debt, to stop tolerating a dynamic that drains you, or to commit more fully to a person or a project that deserves it.
How it may feel
With both lights in a water sign, emotions run deep but stay below the surface. You may feel tired, withdrawn or unusually perceptive in the days around it. Old memories can resurface without warning, and the instinct is to process them privately rather than talk them through. Honor that instinct, but do not let it turn into isolation.
Relationships can feel charged. Questions of trust, control and loyalty rise quickly, and a minor issue may reveal a larger one. The dark of the Moon is a natural pause, so major confrontations are better left until you can see the situation clearly.
Intentions that fit
Good intentions for this lunation are specific and a little uncomfortable. Choose what you are ready to release, not only what you want to gain. Financial clarity, emotional honesty, healthier boundaries, and study that needs sustained focus all match the energy. So does any form of healing work, from therapy to rebuilding trust after a rupture.
Keep the intention private if that makes it feel stronger. Scorpio protects what matters by keeping it close, and an aim shared too early can lose its charge.
Rituals
Write a list of what you are ready to let go of, then tear it up or safely burn it as a sign that the decision is made.
Clear one physical space that holds old energy, such as a drawer of papers, a closet or a folder of messages you keep rereading.
Review your shared finances or debts and take one concrete step, even a small one, toward clarity.
Spend time near water or take a long bath, and let the quiet carry your attention inward.
Write a single intention in the present tense and keep it somewhere only you will see it.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the November new moon?
The date moves from year to year. The next November new moon is shown at the top of this page, and the table lists every November new moon through 2029, all in your time zone. If the page cannot read your time zone, times appear in US Eastern Time (EST or EDT). Years and months follow US Eastern Time, so where your date differs, the Eastern date is added in parentheses. In a year with two new moons in November, both dates are listed.
What zodiac sign is the November new moon in?
A new moon happens when the Moon lines up with the Sun, so it always falls in the same sign as the Sun. The Sun moves into the next sign partway through every month, so a November new moon lands in one of two signs depending on the year. The sign for each year is in the table on this page.
What does the new moon mean in astrology?
The new moon opens the lunar cycle. The Moon is dark and the sky is quiet, and astrologers treat these days as a time to set intentions, start small and plant ideas that can grow over the following weeks. The sign of the new moon colors which kind of beginning feels natural.
