New Moon, 18 November 2017, Scorpio

Exact time & zodiac degree of this moon | Understanding New Moons |

A month of deeper possibilities in love begins under this week’s New Moon in Scorpio! As a zodiac energy, Scorpio can take us into some of the deepest, most tender moments ever to have existed. But also into some of the most painful. How can the agonies of love be turned into the joys? See it, feel it, know it with the New Moon next to Venus (goddess of love), who is next to Jupiter (god of high times), who is next to Vesta (goddess of inner desires) – all also in Scorpio. Important communication moments, big or small, such as thoughtful texts or emails, help cross bridges and create new agreements. With Mercury, Mars and the Nodes all hooked together, courage is needed to find playful and tolerant ways to broach topics, hint at needs, or duck and dodge communication bullets to allow different perspectives to be heard and considered. The old and the new, the traditional and the innovative taste each other’s medicine. Imagine a CEO patriarch doing the job of one of his factory workers for a day, while the factory worker does his. What part of yourself could loosen some strictness to truly feel and know what gnaws at the heart of another? With Saturn trine Uranus, we can soften control and taste-test new beginnings. Sitting in another’s shoes is key to clearing away old hurts, no matter how ancient, whether departing a love connection or entering a new one.
