Or how to use intensity for growth!

On November 13th, at 09:27 GMT, the skies will give us a powerful New Moon at 20° of Scorpio.
As we are still very immersed in Eclipse energy, the intensity of this lunation is quite strong and has a great potential to help us transform deeply.
A New Moon is always associated with darkness before new beginnings. It’s like the deep soil nurturing seeds so they can reach the light and thrive. This idea of birth and creation is particularly enhanced because this lunation occurs in the sign of Scorpio, a profound archetype of death and rebirth, endings and new beginnings and psychological epiphanies.
At the time of this New Moon, the energies are escalating as we have a conjunction between Mars, the Sun and the Moon. Mars is at home in Scorpio and has a great will to achieve and no fear to do the work. The Sun (our identity, our core) and the Moon (our way of handling emotions) are likely to be questionned and analysed. Solutions, sudden ‘aha’ moments and movement forward are supported by the New Moon’s chart.
With Saturn being direct in Pisces, it feels like we are getting our willpower back for learning lessons and advancing in life. The Sun and the Moon in Scorpio are opposing Uranus in Taurus and this adds to the potency of this lunation. The need to carve our own path, to think differently, to go for the unusual in order to find answers is appearing quite strongly.
Neptune forming a trine with Mars, the Sun and the Moon invites us to tap into our imaginative power to ease the discomfort of deep inner work and possible emotional tides. Spiritual and creative activities carry an immense healing frequency at this time.
This lunation seems like a nudge to do whatever we can to heal and transform. Any intentions about letting go of toxicity (no matter its shape) and evolving on the psychological plane are keys to unlocking our real, great and authentic selves.
May this New Moon support your blooming in every possible way 🤍
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it and join the dance.
