New moon November 20th, 2025
The new moon is next to the Sun in Scorpio. In this sign, you experience depth and extremes – you can feel something so deeply that you can’t put it into words. The theme of life – death – rebirth plays a role here. Examine yourself and the world around you but be careful not to get stuck in black-and-white thinking. Try to see and experience nuances. The psychic power of Scorpio is great and healing. It’s important to handle everything related to healing with responsibility.
Mercury is also (on November 20 and 21) at the same degree as the Moon and the Sun; this is called a ‘combust Mercury’: the planet of thinking, communicating, and connecting is then fully in service to the Sun. This doubles the Scorpio principle, both in being and feeling as well as in thinking. Because of this, it’s difficult to distinguish between power and powerlessness, between seeing through things and knowing when it’s better to say nothing, between letting go out of frustration and sensing when something is truly finished.
Venus is nearby, which can cause irresistible passion to rise up for someone or something. Make sure you don’t get entangled in something you don’t actually want to be bound to. If an old wound, pain, or story resurfaces, this is the time to process and release it (in a creative or expressive way).
The Sun, Moon, and Mercury form a trine with Neptune. This awakens or strengthens clairvoyant abilities, makes it easier to listen to your intuition, and gives visionary talents. Still, be careful not to lose yourself by becoming completely absorbed in something. Where do you end and where does the outside world begin? Knowing your own ‘yes’ and ‘no’ is once again essential!
The Moon, Sun, and Mercury are opposite Uranus, which can create confusion, as feelings and thoughts may dart in all directions. Impatience can make you decide too quickly. The urge for freedom can become compulsive, keeping you from truly engaging with anything or making you chase only for a thrill. Breaking something off now out of restlessness might lead to regret later. So reflect, feel it through, and find calm before making a decision!
The Sun and the Black Moon are together, with the Moon just one degree away. On one hand, this makes you crystal clear about what’s going on within yourself and around you. On the other side, you might not receive applause for expressing what you perceive, because it may knock over sacred ego constructs or expose secrets. Trust your powers of perception, for they go beyond physical sight. At the same time, keep yourself free from people who want something from you, because they may want to hear your insights but blame you if things don’t go their way. Sometimes silence is golden…
With six planets retrograde (Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Chiron), this is a time of introspection. Don’t let yourself be constantly distracted, take time and create stillness to further explore your inner world. That will help you hear your inner voice more clearly. The answers lie within you. Don’t underestimate your knowing! It is precisely the signals of your heart and the voice of your soul that can guide you through these turbulent times.
