We’re in the midst of the most moody and brooding time of year — Scorpio season, of course — and it’s only getting started.
With eclipse season behind us, we can finally return to our regularly scheduled lunar rituals (candle magic, anyone?).
And you’ll want to take full advantage of the next lunation’s potent vibe when it arrives in assertive Scorpio on November 13, 2023, at 4:27 a.m. ET or 10:27 a.m. CET. The sexy water sign guides our hearts to pursue our deepest passions during this new moon.
New moons, which appear every 29.5 days, represent new beginnings. They serve as a reminder to rest and plan, and they are an especially powerful time for manifestation.
Scorpio represents power and transformation, as well as our need to let go of whatever is holding us back. Scorpio in our natal charts indicates that we are covert and strategic in our actions, as well as stubborn, resilient, loyal, and passionate.
Pay attention if you’re resistant to letting go of baggage. Lunar drama is unavoidable right now, so understanding the spiritual significance of the November 2023 new moon is critical.
The Spiritual Meaning of the Scorpio New Moon on November 13, 2023
New moons, according to astrology, are all about change. They provide us with an opportunity to rest and plant seeds for our dreams to come true through the power of manifestation. When the new moon transits a water sign, we are usually prompted to assess our emotions in private. However, because Scorpio shows us what we need to let go of, we may cling to things we know we shouldn’t.
Furthermore, the moon is debilitated in Scorpio, so they are 180 degrees apart. Debilitated [celestial bodies] are analogous to a foreigner feeling uneasy away from home. Repressed emotions may come to the surface, forcing us to examine what isn’t fulfilling our soul.
Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, the planet of destruction and transformation in modern astrology; in traditional astrology, it is ruled by Mars, the planet of aggression, so expect tensions to rise. When a new moon occurs in Scorpio, pent-up emotions can explode and we can cut ties to emotionally toxic things. People, situations, and even our own bad habits fall into this category.
With the new moon in the scorpion’s sign, we may experience both stagnation and upheaval.
Astrology of the Scorpio New Moon on November 13, 2023
A few factors contribute to the energy of the new Moon in Scorpio. In Scorpio, the Sun and Moon are conjunct, or next to Mars. Mars is the traditional planetary ruler of Scorpio and, along with Pluto, one of the rulers of this new Moon. Mars adds fire and intensity to the new Moon. You may experience feelings of rage, frustration, or restlessness. These feelings may reveal areas where your boundaries have been crossed.
Boundaries and anger are inextricably linked. We are angry when someone crosses our boundaries or when we have difficulty setting them in the first place. Anger is frequently the first indication that your boundaries require attention. Setting boundaries can be difficult. We might even have shadows or unconscious patterns that prevent us from setting them. We don’t honor who we are and our inherent truth when we don’t set boundaries. Defining and adhering to boundaries protects both ourselves and the life we are creating.
Recognize where you need boundaries to honor your energy and growth during this new Moon in Scorpio. Also, notice if you are angry or frustrated, and then inquire as to how these emotions can inform your need for boundaries.
The Moon, Sun, and Mars all oppose Uranus retrograde in Taurus as well this new Moon. Uranus, the planet of change, aids us in breaking up old patterns of energy and behavior. As with all breakthroughs, there is frequently a preceding breakdown. Be aware of what is breaking through if you are experiencing strong emotions that feel like they are melting your soul. Recognize old patterns that don’t honor your feelings or cause you to ignore them. Instead, challenge yourself to sit with your emotions and allow them to teach you. When an intense emotion arises, consider how it is assisting you in breaking through and understanding yourself.
Uranus is a very creative planet that awakens our visionary senses. We can feel our creativity and intuition after we work through the emotions and breakthroughs that this new Moon brings us. Scorpio reminds us that we create our own reality. We can manifest any dream with energetic intention and focus. However, in order for true creativity to flourish, we must break free from old patterns that limit us.
Any form of creativity feels risky. We venture into the unknown when we create something new, whether it’s a work of art or a new life. We leave behind what is familiar and venture into unknown territory.
How to Use the Power of the Scorpio New Moon on November 13, 2023
It’s not all bad news! Scorpio governs power and desire, providing us with the motivation to achieve our objectives. This lunation is ideal for making long-term plans, whether you want to increase your savings or stick to a workout routine.
With this sign’s combative energy in the air, you should pick your battles carefully. This is the time to get rid of things you know you should get rid of.
This will be made more feasible by two factors: Venus is in Libra, encouraging us to lean into teamwork. The south node (the point that represents our karma and past) is also in Libra, revealing which patterns in your relationships are no longer functioning properly.
Finally, this lunation encourages us to look deep within ourselves, identify what is no longer serving us, and make room for growth.
This is an excellent time to journal, take a spiritually calming bath, or renew your commitment to therapy. Keep your cool, and we’ll all ride this wave of healing together.
Final Thoughts
This new Moon reveals hidden doorways to your intuition as you peel back the layers of emotion. You always know exactly what to do when the time comes. All you have to do is learn to listen to yourself. Unprocessed or suppressed emotions, on the other hand, can obstruct your inner knowing.
Notice how it feels to be in the space of not knowing as you dissolve old patterns this new Moon. It can be frightening to exist in the in-between. We may want to return to what is familiar while also knowing that our only option is to move forward into the unknown. To create a new life, vision, or pattern, we must let go of the old and accept the discomfort of the unknown.
Accept this new Moon’s state of not knowing, and remember that your intuition always knows the way forward. Allow your visionary senses to open up and reveal the higher meaning of your life. Feel the expansiveness and potential of your energy. Feel its influence and interconnectedness to so much more than your life.
Follow your intuition as you set intentions for the New Moon. Allow your inner truth to lead you. Do not question it, request logical steps or proof, or ignore it. Listen to your intuition and allow it to assist you in defining a new reality based on your current energy rather than past definitions.
The layers of this new Moon reveal the full potential of your vibration this lifetime, and from this vision, you can set intentions that bring your soul’s reality into being.
