11/9 Scorpio New Moon at 17° | 11th House of Friendships, Community and Future Dreams
This Scorpio New Moon opens a powerful new chapter in your 11th house of friendships, community, belonging, and future dreams. This is fertile ground for looking honestly at the people you surround yourself with and the future you are creating. Who supports the person you are becoming? Where do you feel genuinely understood? And where might you be holding on to a connection simply because it has been part of your story for a long time? Scorpio invites you to go beneath the surface and make room for more meaningful connections.
With the New Moon at 17° Scorpio, your natal North Node at 17° Scorpio is exactly aligned with this energy. Your natal Midheaven at 19° Scorpio is also within 2°. This brings an especially meaningful emphasis to your sense of belonging, your future direction, and the communities that may play a role in your growth. You may feel called to reconsider who you want beside you as you move into your next chapter. Some connections may deepen, while others may naturally begin to fall away.
Scorpio is a water sign, so this New Moon asks you to listen to your emotional truth rather than trying to think your way through everything. Your intuition may be picking up on things you have not yet found the words to explain. You do not need to rush to conclusions or force a conversation before you are ready. Give yourself permission to sit with what you feel and allow the deeper message to rise naturally.
Mars, the ruler of this New Moon, is in your 8th house of intimacy, shared resources, trust, and transformation. This adds courage and intensity to the process. Your future growth may require you to be more honest about what you share with others, where you have given away your power, and what kind of trust you need in your closest relationships. You are not being asked to close your heart. You are being asked to recognize where your energy is best invested.
This is an opportunity to plant intentions around authentic friendship, meaningful collaboration, and a future that feels emotionally fulfilling. You do not have to know exactly how everything will unfold. Begin by getting honest about what you want, what you are ready to outgrow, and what kind of people you want to become surrounded by. Let this New Moon remind you that belonging is not about fitting into every room. It is about finding the spaces where you can show up as yourself.
5 Intentions to Set
I intend to create friendships that honor my growth, my truth, and my individuality.
I intend to welcome communities and collaborations that align with the person I am becoming.
I intend to release the need to belong where I must hide parts of myself.
I intend to build a future that reflects my deepest values rather than other people's expectations.
I intend to trust my intuition when choosing the people with whom I share my energy, dreams, and resources.
5 Blessings in This Fertile Ground
May you recognize the people who genuinely celebrate your growth.
May you find your place in communities where your presence matters.
May old patterns of belonging give way to deeper authenticity.
May your future become clearer as you honor what your heart already knows.
May the connections entering your life support your courage, purpose, and transformation.
1 Crystal
Labradorite is a beautiful companion for this New Moon. Use it as a reminder to trust your inner knowing, welcome new perspectives, and remain open to the possibilities you cannot see yet.
Step by Step Water Sign Intention Ritual
What You Need
A bowl of clean water
A blue or white candle
Labradorite or another crystal that feels meaningful to you
Paper and pen
A quiet space where you can reflect without interruption
Step 1: Create a Calm Space
Place the bowl of water in front of you and set your crystal beside it. Light your candle safely.
Take several slow breaths. Relax your shoulders and allow yourself to settle. Water energy invites you to soften, listen, and feel rather than force an answer.
Step 2: Connect With Your Emotional Truth
Look at the water and ask yourself:
Where do I feel genuinely supported in my life?
Where am I longing for a deeper sense of belonging?
What kind of future feels meaningful to me now?
Allow the answers to come without judging them.
Step 3: Write Your Intentions
Write down the five intentions above, or choose the ones that resonate most deeply. Add your own words if something else comes forward.
Focus on the feeling behind each intention. Rather than trying to control who arrives or how things unfold, identify the qualities you want to welcome into your relationships and future.
Step 4: Release What No Longer Fits
On a separate piece of paper, write down the patterns you are ready to leave behind. Perhaps you have been overgiving, shrinking yourself to fit in, holding on to connections out of obligation, or doubting your place in a community.
Read what you wrote and say:
“I honor what has brought me here. I release what no longer reflects who I am becoming. I allow space for connections and possibilities that support my authentic path.”
Tear the paper into small pieces. You may discard them safely, or place them in a separate bowl rather than in your ritual water.
Step 5: Let the Water Hold Your Intentions
Dip your fingertips gently into the clean water. Imagine yourself becoming more open to meaningful connections, deeper trust, and a future that feels aligned.
Say:
“Like water, I allow life to move. I trust my feelings to guide me, my boundaries to protect me, and my intentions to remind me of the future I am choosing.”
Step 6: Choose One Real World Action
Write down one action you can take this week to support your intentions. You might reach out to someone who inspires you, explore a community, reconnect with a meaningful dream, or establish a healthier boundary.
Let the ritual inspire a practical step without demanding that the entire future reveal itself immediately.
Step 7: Close With Gratitude
Hold your crystal, take a few breaths, and thank yourself for being willing to listen honestly.
Say:
“I welcome meaningful connections. I trust the wisdom of my own heart. I allow my future to unfold in ways that honor who I truly am.”
Extinguish the candle safely. Pour the water down the drain or onto the earth, with gratitude for the clarity and intentions you have cultivated.

You may feel more willing to have a meaningful conversation, ask for what you need, or take action around something that has felt emotionally complicated. This energy encourages you to combine diplomacy with confidence. You can be considerate of others without minimizing your own needs.
Together, these energies support progress when you let your values and your actions work together. You might take a step toward a professional goal, strengthen an important connection, or have a conversation about shared responsibilities. Let your confidence come from knowing what matters to you, not from needing everyone to approve of your choices.

November 13: A Powerful Turning Point as Mercury and Venus Turn Direct
November 13 brings a shift in two important areas of life: the way you communicate and understand your relationships, and the way you recognize your values and choose your direction. Mercury turning direct in Scorpio helps you begin moving forward after a period of reviewing friendships, community, trust, and future plans. Conversations that felt confusing may start to make more sense, and you may recognize what needs to be said or understood before you move ahead.
Venus turning direct in Libra brings renewed clarity around career, public image, relationships, and what success means to you. You may begin to feel more certain about what you want to pursue, which connections deserve your energy, and where you have been compromising too much to keep things harmonious.
Together, these shifts invite you to take what you have learned and begin applying it. You do not need to rush into every decision the moment the planets turn direct. Let the insights settle, notice what has changed inside you, and take the next step with greater self trust. The goal is not to return to the way things were. It is to move forward with a clearer understanding of what truly fits.
11/13 Mercury Turns Direct in Scorpio at 5° | 11th House of Friendships, Community and Future Dreams
Mercury turns direct in your 11th house of friendships, community, belonging, and future dreams, helping you begin to move forward after a period of reconsidering the people and possibilities surrounding you. Conversations that seemed unresolved may begin to find direction, and ideas about your future may feel easier to organize. You may notice that something you have been thinking about for weeks finally starts to make sense.
This retrograde period may have encouraged you to look more closely at your friendships and the role you play in your communities. You may have questioned whether certain connections still feel mutual, whether you have been heard, or whether the future you imagined still reflects your priorities. With Mercury turning direct at 5° Scorpio, your natal Uranus at 7° Scorpio is within 2°, bringing added emphasis to unexpected insights and a willingness to think differently about your place in the world.
Your natal North Node at 17° Scorpio and Midheaven at 19° Scorpio are not within 5° of Mercury at 5°, so the closest natal connection to this particular turning point is Uranus. This may feel like a mental reset, where you begin to see a friendship, group dynamic, or future possibility from a new angle. You may be more willing to question old assumptions and make room for a different approach.
Clarity does not always arrive as one dramatic revelation. Sometimes it comes through noticing a pattern, hearing something differently, or realizing you no longer feel the same way about a situation. You may be ready to revisit a conversation, reconnect with someone, or put an idea into motion that has been sitting on the back burner. Give yourself time to make sure your next step reflects what you have genuinely learned.
As Mercury moves forward, use your new perspective to become more intentional about the people and plans you invest in. You do not need to hold on to every connection or pursue every possibility. You are allowed to choose relationships and communities that support your growth. Let this turning point help you move toward a future that feels more honest, more freeing, and more aligned with who you are becoming.

11/13 Venus Turns Direct in Libra at 22° | 10th House of Career, Visibility and Life Direction
Venus turns direct in your 10th house of career, public image, reputation, and life direction, bringing a shift after a period of reconsidering what success and fulfillment mean to you. You may begin to feel more certain about your professional goals, the way you want to show up in the world, and the relationships that support your growth. Questions that have been lingering around your direction may begin to feel easier to navigate.
During Venus retrograde, you may have taken a closer look at where you seek approval, how you handle professional relationships, and whether the path you are pursuing reflects your actual values. You may have revisited an old ambition or questioned whether you are giving too much energy to maintaining appearances. With Venus turning direct at 22° Libra, your natal Pluto at 11° Libra is not within 5°, so the focus is on Venus's movement through your 10th house rather than a close contact with that natal placement.
This shift encourages you to reconsider what it means to be successful on your own terms. You may realize that recognition is not as fulfilling when it comes at the expense of your peace, or that a professional opportunity feels right only when it allows you to remain true to yourself. You can care about your reputation and still refuse to build your life around other people's expectations.
Relationships connected to your career or public life may also begin to feel clearer. You may have a better understanding of where cooperation is possible, where boundaries are needed, and which connections genuinely support your direction. You do not have to force an outcome or immediately act on every realization. Let your choices grow from the understanding you have gained during this review period.
As Venus moves forward, begin taking practical steps toward a version of success that feels balanced and authentic. You are allowed to want recognition, meaningful work, and supportive relationships without sacrificing your personal values. This is an opportunity to move forward with a clearer sense of what you bring to the world and what you are no longer willing to compromise to be accepted.
