New Moon in Scorpio: Pluto transforms your life!
Hi, Everyone,
This is a particularly intense Scorpio season for multiple reasons. To begin with, both of the rulers of Scorpio are in combat and will peak on 11/3/24, which is just two days before the Election in the United States.
Mars is the Roman god of war and is the planet of action, drive, passion, desire, and anger. It is also can be connected with the masculine and with sexuality. Pluto is the higher octave of Mars. It represents power, alchemy, transformation, intimacy, death, destruction,rebirth, transcendence, joint resources, and unhealed wounds.
Mars and Pluto are building up to a HUGE opposition, which peaks on 11/3/2024 at 6:37 am EDT at 29 degrees and 45 minutes of the Cardinal signs of Cancer and Capricorn. This is very combustible energy, and it is highly combative. We always feel the onset of Mars’ energy before it becomes exact.
Mars starts to kick in 10/28/24 when it reaches 28 degrees of Cancer setting of Pluto in a bigger way we can all feel. Currently, there are five points transiting in water signs: Mars, the planet of action, in Cancer; the Sun, which represents ego and identity in Scorpio; Mercury, planet of perception, perspective, and the mind in Scorpio; Saturn, planet of karma, challenges, and restrictions, in Pisces; Neptune, planet of dreams, imagination, delusion, and deception, in Pisces.
With all of these points in water signs, this heightens intuition, psychic abilities, dreams, and messages. Pay attention to your dreams and all of the messages you may receive through music, clocks, birds, or however you get them.
Try to connect to your intuition and find ways to heal through getting more rest, journaling your anxieties or anger, meditation, sound baths, walking in nature, listening to music, and tapping into the healing modalities.
This is very sensitive energy, so people can feel both very vulnerable and triggered; but, also easy to anger. Mars is now in its shadow period, which means that it has already reached 17 degrees of the Cardinal water sign of Cancer, which is where it stations direct when it finally does go direct on February 23, 2025.
Mars is both slowing down to retrograde and also involved in combat with Pluto, which is about to change signs and re-enter the Fixed air sign of Aquarius. When Pluto ingresses back into the Fixed air sign of Aquarius, that means HUGE shifts on the collective level.
While Pluto finishes its sixteen year tour in the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn, old systems are getting demolished in our lives and on the world stage. We are preparing for a whole new world and a whole new era of new beginnings!
Energetic shifts are real, and Mars activates the purging of the old to make room for the new. Pluto is the cosmic eliminator, and it is interesting timing that all of this occurs during Scorpio season, which Pluto rules.
As I write this article, Mercury, the cosmic messenger, opposes Uranus, planet of enlightenment and surprise. This could bring unexpected news and can make you think on your feet! It can also be very exciting energy that brings good brainstorming and innovative ideas that come to you out of nowhere.
The New Moon kicks off the month of November with a lunar opportunity to initiate new beginnings around purging, detoxing, healing, and empowering. This New Moon chart has the energy of Mars and Pluto opposite at the very degree and building up to that opposition on November 3rd. The need to detox and let go is real. The need for change and letting go of old systems, patterns, and relationships that hold you back is real. The need for change on the collective level is real.
The New Moon occurs on 11/1/2024 at 8:47 am EDT at 9 degrees and 35 minutes of the Fixed water sign of Scorpio. In this New moon chart, there is a kite, which brings a beautiful opportunity to work with healing, purging old painful memories, and connecting to your intuition.
Mercury, planet of thinking, forms a helfpul trine to Saturn, planet of structure, and the two both trine Mars, planet of action. This is a Grand Trine in water, which is a flow of energy and helps to connect to your intuive abilities and imagination to manifest.
This Grand Trine is involved in a bigger aspect known as a Kite, in which one of the planets involved in this lucky Grand Trine, which is when all three planets form the shape of a triangle. One of the planets is involved in an opposition, which is a pain point.
In this case, Mars in Cancer is opposite Pluto in Capricorn. Both are at an anaretic degree, which means that they are at the final degree of the sign. This is a degree of crisis, culmination, and finality. Old power structure are being released.
Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn, which rules time. Capricorn represents the old, and it represents leaders and people in power. Old hierarches and power structures are morphing with the times. The times, they are A-changin’.
This kite gives us a cosmic opportunity to work with magic, manifesting, and those fun cosmic tools right after Halloween and in a season that loves witchy things and those cosmic tools that we all have within us if we can suspend disbelief and connect to the source within us, which is unlimited. Part of this involves letting go of anger with the Mars/Pluto opposition; letting go of past resentment with Mars in Cancer, which could trigger old childhood resentments and things that hurt you.
Old memories could surface or the feeling of something you have experienced before. People are a lot more moody and touchy when Mars transits in the sign of Cancer.
The New Moon in Scorpio forms a helpful angle to Saturn, planet of responsibility, structure, accountability, and realization. Saturn stations direct on November 15, 2024 at 12 degrees and 41 minutes of the Mutable water sign of Pisces. Saturn will remain at 12 degrees of Pisces through early December, and this is an optimistic signature with this New Moon in Scorpio, that there are guides around us and cosmic protection if we open our hearts and minds.
I will not deny that this energy is very combative, and some people may really go off the deep end with anger, violence, and passion. Kim Jong Un launched a missile test designed to threaten the United States and is also deploying troops to help Russia.
This is just days before the presidential election in the United States and another sign of the Mars/Pluto opposition that bursts on 11/3/24 and just weeks of completing Pluto in Capricorn, that represents world leaders in power.
We have to use the energy of the Grand trine in water and of the Kite to manifest love, protection, and healing of hatred. We need to shield with love. Mars enters the Fixed fire sign of Leo on 11/3/24 at 11:10 pm EST. Mars retrogrades on 12/6/24 at 6 degrees and 11 minutes of Leo; therefore, try to get as much done now that you want to launch for the New Year if it is something new altogether.
Mars in Leo is passionate, fun, creative, and courageous. It is figuring out how to shine in what you do and doing what makes your heart happy. Use this New Moon to release fears, be couragous, use power and even anger in a healthy way, release resentment, and purge the toxic. I wish you much luck.
The New Moon is always an excellent time to write down intentions, do a manifesting ritual on your own or with others to magnify the energy, and to do the Law of Abundance.
To do the Law of Abundance, take a blank check and date it for 11/1/2024. Where it says, “Pay to the order of, ” write down your full name. Leave the small numeric box empty. On the following line, where you normally print out the amount, write, “Paid in Full.” Where you normally sign your name at the bottom of the check, print, “The Law of Abundance.” I wish you much luck in this time of transformation!
