On November 9, 2026 at 08:02 (CET), the New Moon falls in Scorpio: Sun and Moon stand exactly together and the night sky goes dark. Astrologically this is the seeding point of the month — the best moment to quietly begin something new, this time coloured by Scorpio.

What does Moon mean?

The Moon is your inner life — feelings, habits, home. It shows what nourishes you, what sets you off, and how you bring yourself to safety when the world gets too loud. Where the Sun describes who you want to be, the Moon tells what you are when nobody is watching: your reflexes, your longings, the fabric your dreams are made of.

What does the New Moon mean?

New Moon: Sun and Moon stand together. A seeding point – sow, don’t harvest. A good time to start a project quietly.

What does Scorpio mean?

Scorpio goes deep — power, intimacy, truth that isn’t pleasant. It stays where others bail out, and wants to know what sits beneath the surface. Where Scorpio acts, nothing gets prettied up — things get transformed: one theme dies, another returns stripped down.

Together this means

New Moon in Scorpio plants a new beginning in this sign's key. Something can start quietly here — not loud yet, not finished, but in the direction Scorpio opens up.
