New Moon in Scorpio—Emotional
discussions trigger new ways of being
as we fulfill our karmic purpose.

The Sun and Moon bond at 12:38 p.m. (CDT) on Sunday, October 30, 2016, where they also meet with communicator Mercury, forming a stellium in the sign of the Scorpion. Scorpio is comfortable with intensity—peeking beneath the veil to confront truths even if doing so reveals unpleasant facts hiding beneath the rocks of polite smiles and superficiality. One of the more fearless signs, the Scorpion has immense courage and strength when confronting the darkness within—possessing the ability to rise “phoenix-like” from the depths of despair toward personal transformation and greatness.

Likewise, this will be a powerful time for us to journey within to discover true feelings, personal demons and hidden desires. Our thoughts run deep with Mercury in Scorpio. We have an opportunity to powerfully express ourselves with the courage of our convictions at this time.

New moons are beneficial for new starts, and we are blessed with favorable cosmic weather to begin a successful journey toward personal transformation. We can create new paths that serve our inner desires, moving from half-hearted, ill-fitting roles plagued with boredom and complacency toward situations where we are free to express our divinely inspired gifts with passionate intensity. Bringing truths to the table, we can work toward solutions that will release us from limiting circumstances so that we may embrace more authentic paths.

The New Moon is also in favorable aspect to Neptune in Pisces and the North Node currently in Virgo. Neptune—strong in Pisces—supports any new starts that involve spirituality, compassionate service, and creative expression. Neptune can also bring illusion or deception, as appearances may be deceiving. However, with Mercury in Scorpio allowing us to see beneath the surface with “eagle-eye” precision, we are less likely to be fooled by any “pie-in-the-sky” promises or “snake oil” proposals.

The karmic North Node in meticulous Virgo helps us find a way out of any confusion and encourages us to follow a divinely inspired path of humble service, where we may work together to create healthier personal habits and lifestyles that contribute to the future health of humanity.

Loving Venus, at 15 degrees Sagittarius, conjuncts serious Saturn and they both trine Uranus at 21 degrees Aries. This may be a time where we recognize hard truths about relationships, finances or earning abilities. We may have some limitations to work through and need to rethink our goals along more realistic lines. We may be seeking stability and commitment in relationships or more financial security. With Uranus in the mix, sudden realizations may cause us to jump into action, creating unique and innovative solutions that free us from limiting beliefs, lifestyles, and/or relationships.

Jupiter in Libra promotes peace, diplomacy and justice for all as it forms a harsh aspect to Pluto in Capricorn, representing rigid conservatism and the “behind-the-scenes” manipulative agendas of powerful groups. Pluto rules Scorpio, so the New Moon in Scorpio offers us an opportunity for powerful new beginnings as old, worn-out systems crumble. We have support from the cosmos to rebuild and rise above the chaos to embrace a more enlightened way of being—where all are honored and respected as we find our true calling in the ever-changing landscape of creation.
