Check out the horoscopes i have put together for this time of intense scorpio transformation - going to effect everyone - so be sure you arent being triggerd in the next couple of days!
As we move deeper into Scorpio season, the cosmos brings an unusually concentrated wave of transformative energy. The Sun, Moon, Venus and retrograde Mercury are all gathered in the sign of depth, honesty and rebirth — and with a New Moon in Scorpio arriving this week, the skies call us inward before we rise renewed. This is a moment for reflection rather than rush, for emotional truth over surface comfort, for clearing out what no longer belongs in the story you’re writing. Below, you’ll find what these alignments mean collectively and personally — followed by detailed guidance and intentions for every zodiac sign to help you navigate the shift with clarity, courage and power.
Scorpio Energies overflow at this time for Transformation
The Sun is in Scorpio (till around 22 November).
The Moon has recently entered Scorpio (on 17 November evening UK time approx) and will move to Sagittarius on 20 November. Mercury is retrograde from 9 Nov to 29 Nov 2025, and re-enters Scorpio on 18-19 November.
Venus entered Scorpio on 6 November and remains there till 30 November.
There is also a New Moon (lunation) in Scorpio at ~28° on 20 November.
What each placement means (individually)
Sun in Scorpio
With the Sun in Scorpio we are in deep water—emotionally, psychologically, spiritually. Scorpio is about transformation, power, hidden truth, catharsis, regeneration.
Positive expression: digging beneath the surface, embracing change, going deep rather than staying superficial, being authentic, facing what’s been hidden.
Challenging expression: brooding, secrecy, obsessiveness, power-struggles, resistance to letting go of the old.
Practical tip: use this time to purge what no longer serves you, explore your inner terrain, bring secrets into the light.
Moon in Scorpio
When the Moon is in Scorpio, our emotional tone is intense, penetrating, maybe obsessive. Feelings go deep, we sense more, we crave meaningful emotional exchange rather than small talk.
Positive: intuitive, perceptive, emotionally honest, capable of intimate connection.
Challenging: mistrust, jealousy, emotional extremes, holding on too tightly, secret-keeping that blocks healing.
Practical tip: be aware of what you feel and why. Emotional awareness = power.
Mercury Retrograde (through Sag → Scorpio)
Mercury governs thought, communication, travel, technology, the mental processes. When retrograde we are asked to review, reflect, revisit rather than start anew.
In Sagittarius (early in the retrograde) we had a focus on big ideas, philosophy, travel, truth-seeking but confusion or rewrites.
Now in Scorpio, Mercury retrograde invites diving into our deeper truths, old conversations, financial or power matters, secrets, transformation of thought.
Positive: great time for reflection, rewriting your story, uncovering what’s hidden, improving how you communicate your inner truth.
Challenging: mis-communication, tech glitches, relationship misunderstandings, resurfacing of old issues, travel/transport disruptions.
Practical tip: back up data, double-check messages, delay major communication decisions if possible, use the time for revision rather than launching.
Venus in Scorpio
Venus is about love, values, money, beauty, relationship; in Scorpio, these get intense, probing, transformational.
Positive: profound connection, authentic intimacy, valuing realness, reclaiming worth, turning relational depth into empowerment.
Challenging: obsession, power plays in relationships, jealousy, fear of vulnerability, financial entanglements with emotional draw.
Practical tip: honour your value, seek deep connection rather than superficial, release relationships that drain rather than grow you, address financial partnerships consciously.
New Moon in Scorpio (~20 November)
A New Moon is a seed moment — a time to begin (ideally) with fresh intention. In Scorpio, the new beginning is about transformation, rebirth, releasing the old, stepping into power.
Positive: you get a cosmic reset, especially around themes of self-power, emotional alchemy, deep transformation, making what’s hidden visible.
Challenging: starting too fast when the soil isn’t ready, being overwhelmed by intensity, resisting the necessary letting go.
Practical tip: set intentions that reflect your deeper truth, let go of what you no longer need, lean into your power from the inside out.
How all this combines and what the collective effect is
Putting them together: We have a strong Scorpio cluster (Sun, Moon, Venus, Mercury) and a New Moon in Scorpio — so the theme is deep transformation. The mental-communication plane (Mercury retrograde) meets the emotional-relationship plane (Moon & Venus) and the core self-identity (Sun) all under Scorpio’s intense gaze. What this suggests:
A powerful window for inner work: bringing to light what has been hidden, releasing old emotional patterns, rewriting your story.
Not the easiest time for new launches (especially in communication, relationships or travel) because Mercury retrograde is still active. Instead this phase is better for review, revision, regeneration.
Relationship and value dynamics will be amplified: what you really want, what you’re willing to surrender, what you stand for — these are up for refinement (Venus/Scorpio).
Emotionally you might feel more sensitive, deep, intuitive or triggered. The Moon in Scorpio heightens the emotional radar.
On the upside: you can emerge from this as a more authentic, empowered version of yourself — the “reborn you”. On the downside: if we resist the change, things may feel heavy, shadowy, confusing, entangled.
Timing: With the New Moon on ~20 Nov this gives a focal point for setting new intentions. But since Mercury is retrograde till ~29 Nov, treat whatever you begin now as “seed stage” rather than fully fledged launch.
Practically: Good time for introspection, therapy, journaling, deep conversations, healing work, clearing out emotional or financial baggage. Less optimal time for big external contracts, commitments, buying major tech or travel unless you’re prepared for delays/revisions.

Final Practical Suggestions for This Phase
Set your intentions around the New Moon (~20 November) but treat them as seeds rather than full launches.
Use the retrograde wisely: review, revise, reconnect with the past where needed, clear out, rather than push for brand-new.
Engage in inner work: journaling, meditation, shadow-work, emotional release—Scorpio season favours this.
Check your relationships and values: with Venus in Scorpio, ask yourself: what do I really want, what am I willing to invest emotionally/financially, what needs transformation?
Mind your communication and tech: with Mercury retrograde, double-check messages, travel plans, contracts, back up your data.
Allow for emotional fluctuation: You may feel more intense, vulnerable, or triggered than usual—use this as information not as a crisis.
Balance depth with lightness: While Scorpio invites heavy work, you still need rest, fun, and grounding; make time for pleasurable, light moments too.
