New Moon in Scorpio

The Moon catches up with the Sun at 16°54′ Scorpio on 9 November 2026, 07:03 UTC. Both bodies stand at the same degree, which is what a new moon is: the Moon is between us and the Sun, its lit face turned away, invisible from the ground.

Traditionally this is the start of a cycle rather than the end of one — the point at which something is begun quietly and without much evidence it will work. The water quality of Scorpio colours what is being started: the beginning is felt rather than decided, and it will make sense emotionally long before it makes sense on paper.

Because Scorpio is fixed, the cycle it opens tends to build slowly, hold on hard, and resist being redirected once underway.
