The moon renews every 30 days or so.
The new moon occurs when the moon conjuncts (i.e., lines up with) the sun, giving the night sky a moonless appearance. While the spectacle of a full moon is often the focus of attention, the eerie absence of a new moon is powerful in its own right. New moons, according to astrology, not only start the moon’s monthly cycle, but also bring about changes and new beginnings. And the new moon in Scorpio in November promises to be a particularly transformative time.
The November 2023 new moon in Scorpio arrives on November 13 at 4:27 a.m. ET or 10:27 a.m. CET, bringing with it a sensual vibe that’s ripe with intrigue and mystery. Water is associated with intensity, passion, and intense emotions. As a result, the truths we prefer to keep hidden from ourselves and others may bubble to the surface.

What Is the Spiritual Meaning of the New Moon in Scorpio, November 13th, 2023?
From October 24 to November 22, 2023, the sun enters Scorpio territory. Scorpio, the passionate and intuitive sign, is associated with all things taboo. Scorpio is ruled by the eighth house of rebirth and transformation, as well as the enigmatic Pluto, which explains why the sign is so protective (look at those pincers). And, while the dark side of Scorpios — their tendency toward jealousy and manipulation — is often highlighted as a water sign, Scorpio is actually a great reminder of our emotional sensitivities, emphasizing all of our pent-up feelings each time the moon enters its domain.
As a result, the Scorpio new moon is a time for introspection and emotional transformation. You may feel compelled to investigate your own psyche and uncover hidden truths about yourself and/or others. This is a great time to focus on shadow work, which is the process of examining and integrating your unconscious patterns, habits, traumas, and fears.
These topics may appear daunting, but the energy of the Scorpio new moon in November allows you to approach them with neutral curiosity, allowing you to objectively assess what is no longer working for you. This will allow you to move forward with greater freedom, which is the ideal way to end the year.
How the November 13th New Moon in Scorpio May Affect the Zodiac Signs
New moons are ideal for reflecting on the previous month and setting intentions for the month ahead. However, each sign will be pushed in a different direction as the new moon in Scorpio illuminates a different sector of their natal charts. Read your sun, rising, and moon signs ahead to see how you can best capitalize on this new moon in Scorpio — and what pitfalls may await you.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
You’re a passionate and honest leader, Aries, but the new moon is directing your attention to the people with whom you should be standing shoulder to shoulder. This new moon may elicit intense emotions in your most intimate relationships. Concentrate on increasing trust and vulnerability in your partnerships.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Taurus, the new moon in Scorpio provides an opportunity to reflect on what motivates you. At this time, you may have a strong desire to pursue your deepest passions and creative projects. Use this energy to your advantage by taking action toward your goals.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Prepare for some upheaval, Gemini, especially when it comes to your foundations and domestic core. This new moon may reveal unpleasant truths about your home or family life. It’s a good time to address any issues that have been brushed aside. Remember that uncovering hidden truths can be frightening — but the new moon energy is pushing you forward, and now is a good time to go with the flow.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
If you’ve been holding your tongue, Cancer, this is the time to speak up. During this new moon, you may feel a renewed sense of communication and mental clarity. Make the most of this energy by expressing yourself honestly and openly.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
This week is all about money, Leo. This new moon may raise financial or material concerns. Take advantage of this opportunity to organize your finances and focus on long-term stability. While you enjoy lavishing your classic Leo generosity on those closest to you, the new moon in Scorpio is a good time to be honest with yourself about whether you’re going overboard — and whether there are ways you can pamper your loved ones without breaking the bank.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
The new moon in Scorpio is awakening your introspective and self-nourishing side, which is unusual for Virgos. During this new moon, you may experience profound emotional transformation. To help with this process, prioritize self-care and self-love.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
If your social calendar has been jam-packed this month, the new moon in Scorpio provides an opportunity to relax and reset. Of course, that “opportunity” may appear to be friction — but try to see it positively. This new moon may present unexpected challenges in your friendships and social life. Set healthy boundaries and prioritize self-care with this energy.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
If you’re having an identity crisis right now, it’s because you’re on the verge of a metamorphosis, Scorpio. The new moon in your sign is especially potent, so make the most of it. This new moon is an auspicious time for introspection and transformation. Concentrate on your relationship with yourself and use this energy to lay the groundwork for a new growth cycle.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
When bored — or when things become too intense — Sagittarians have a reputation for cutting and running. However, the new moon in Scorpio may force you to confront the emotions that make you want to take a step back rather than lean in. This new moon may awaken long-buried fears or emotional blocks. Utilize this time to confront and overcome these challenges.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorns, who are responsible and down-to-earth, will feel a pull toward their emotional and intuitive sides during this new moon. During this new moon, you may feel a renewed spiritual or emotional connection. Concentrate on your inner world and use your intuition.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Aquarius, you’ve always had a humanitarian streak, and this new moon is bringing it out even more. This new moon may inspire you to pursue community or social change goals. Concentrate on making a positive difference in your community.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Pisces enjoys escaping into fantasy — or getting deep with other people while deflecting any unwanted attention. During the new moon in Scorpio, however, you may discover another source of escape, one that allows you to explore your own innermost thoughts. During this new moon, you may feel compelled to explore your creative side. Allow yourself to experiment with new ideas and embrace your distinct point of view.
