A new chapter opens for all your investments—emotional, spiritual, physical and financial—with the year’s only Scorpio new moon on November 20. Dive into the depths and turn a leaden aspect of your life into pure, shimmering gold.
Scorpio new moon: November 20, 2025 (1:47AM; 28°12’)
Get the ball rolling on your transformational efforts with the new moon in Scorpio this November 20. Real change takes work—it never just happens overnight, of course. But this is a NEW moon, so it’s all about jumping off the starting block.
Scorpio works in the shadows, so don’t try to force the positive vibes, at least not without paying attention to the full range of feelings involved with making change. We get it—it can be scary to let go! But the truth is, the fear of the unknown is what keeps most people stuck in an unhappy cycle. Acknowledge where you’re blocked, then search for savvy mentors and guides who can help you untangle the mysterious machinations of your mind. With techie Uranus opposite the Scorpio new moon, some might pop up in your social media feeds.
Searching for answers? Since both curious Mercury and esoteric Neptune trine the Scorpio new moon, make like a detective and dive down the Google/GPT rabbit hole. But also: See what happens when you quiet your mind and step back from the screens as well. You could channel rich information during a meditation or through a dream.
2026 HOROSCOPE
What to do during the new moon in Scorpio
The Scorpio new moon penetrates the shadows and exposes things unseen. This is a powerful lunation in a seriously resourceful zodiac sign. Over the next six months (until the Scorpio full moon), you could:
Discover what lies beneath. Change is as much an inside job as it is an outer transformation during the annual Scorpio new moon. Examine your beliefs, buried feelings and self-imposed limitations. Not an easy task, we know. Scraping up against the edges can churn up powerful feelings (one of Scorpio’s hidden blessings). Keep your supportive friends in a group chat!
Search beyond your usual range. Scorpio season heightens your investigative skills. Under the dark sky of this mysterious new moon, what you don’t see may be far more telling than anything your vision tracks. Stay open to non-obvious insights and chance encounters.
Pay attention to who you are vibing with, and conversely, who you are definitely not (bye)! But remember: Cutting people off doesn’t stop them from living rent free in your head. So, if there’s a chance you can hash out the conflict, this new moon could guide you to creative solutions. See if an existing connection can go the distance or possibly have potential for permanence. You could develop a deep soul connection from a bond that begins at the Scorpio new moon.
Follow the money. Shared finances, passive income and property matters come under the microscope. If you’ve been spending indiscriminately, start tucking more away for the future like having a portion of your paycheck automatically streamed into retirement accounts. Start learning the language of money if you’re new to it. Read a personal finance book on the basics or ask savvy friends to recommend money managers. Build a portfolio that sets you up for a future of greater security and freedom.
Intensify your bed chem and spice up the sex magic. Sultry vibes are in the air under this new moon, which can bring intense attractions to the point of exothermic passion—or explosive destruction. If you’re going to open a Pandora’s Box (or Cupid’s Closet or Venus’ Vault), make sure you’re ready to play the long game. Otherwise, you could feel Scorpio’s painful sting—or the unsavory traits of this sign like jealousy and vengeance. No thanks! Make sure everything’s above-board, too. The hypnotic spell this new moon casts could make people forget their better judgment in the face of raw temptation.
