This week holds the quiet movement between an ending and a beginning.
The Scorpio New Moon opens space for renewal, while Mercury and Venus complete their retrogrades, inviting what we have discovered within to begin finding expression in our lives.
Alongside these shifts, Jupiter and Mars meet the South Node in Leo. Something familiar is ready to loosen. Something more honest is asking for room. We are invited to listen, allowing understanding to arrive at its own pace.
November 9, 2026: Scorpio New Moon
Before the Moon becomes visible again, there is darkness. A pause in which the previous cycle has emptied and the next has yet to take shape. This Scorpio New Moon invites us into that space within ourselves, where an ending can be felt before we know what follows.
With Mercury still retrograde in Scorpio, beginning again also means looking back. We may be ready for something new while still discovering the beliefs, memories, and emotional patterns shaping what we believe is possible.
What story has been guiding your choices? Whose understanding of life have you carried as your own? Beneath a familiar fear, is there a tender part of you waiting to be heard?
Let this lunation be a meeting with yourself beneath appearances and expectations. Give your feelings time to reveal what they hold. Renewal begins as we recognise what we have been living through, and allow a different relationship with it to become possible.

November 11, 2026: Jupiter Conjunct the South Node in Leo
As Jupiter meets the South Node in Leo, our attention turns toward the stories through which we recognise ourselves. The identities we have grown into. The ways we have learned to express ourselves, seek recognition, and understand our place in the world.
Some of these stories may feel so familiar that we have stopped noticing them. Jupiter invites a wider view, making room to see where an old understanding of who we are has become too small.
Notice what arises around being seen. Is your expression moving from an honest desire, or from an earlier need to become someone worthy of attention?
There is space here to loosen your attachment to a version of yourself that requires constant proving. Let what feels complete begin to soften. As familiar expectations fall away, you may hear more clearly what you want to express, create, and experience now.
November 13, 2026: Mercury Direct in Scorpio
Mercury stations direct in Scorpio on November 13, bringing its three weeks of inward exploration toward a close. What has been moving beneath the surface begins to reach our conscious understanding.
A thought returns with a different meaning. An unanswered question begins to settle. Experiences that seemed separate reveal a connection. The mind starts gathering what it has encountered and considering how this awareness might change the way we speak, choose, and move.
Allow this reorientation to be gradual. There is time to understand what you have seen before deciding what comes next.
Mercury remains in Scorpio, carrying its depth, intuition, and willingness to question appearances into this next chapter. Our attention begins returning to the world around us with greater awareness of the world within. Listen for the words that now feel true, and give them space to shape a new conversation with yourself.
November 13, 2026: Venus Direct in Libra
Venus also stations direct on November 13, completing five weeks of reflection. As the mind begins making sense of its discoveries, the heart and body begin responding to theirs.
Consider what these weeks have shown you about love and connection. Where did you notice yourself opening? Where did you feel the impulse to withdraw? What became clearer about your desires, your vulnerability, or your willingness to receive?
This turning point offers space to bring those observations into your relationships, including the relationship you hold with yourself. An awareness of your worth may begin changing what you allow, ask for, or share.
With Venus in Libra, language can help us understand what the body has already been communicating. Sit with the feelings and questions that surfaced. Let them become conscious enough to guide your choices. Give your understanding of love room to grow alongside the person you are becoming.
November 14, 2026: Mars Conjunct the South Node in Leo
Mars meets the South Node in Leo on November 14, bringing our patterns of action into focus. After noticing an old story, we may begin recognising the ways our energy has been organised around keeping it alive.
Observe what happens when you feel unseen, questioned, or unsure of your place. Is there an impulse to prove yourself, push harder, or protect an identity you have already begun outgrowing?
This meeting invites a pause between a familiar feeling and a familiar response. Within that pause, another choice can become available.
There may be effort you are ready to stop making, a role you no longer wish to defend, or an old desire that no longer holds your attention. Allow your energy to return from these places. Listen for the movement that feels honest now, and let your next action begin there.
Weekly Astrology 8 – 14 November, 2026
Make room for what is becoming clear without asking yourself to understand everything at once. This week offers beginnings that emerge through reflection, release, and a willingness to meet yourself with greater honesty.
The New Moon invites you beneath the stories you have inherited and repeated. Jupiter and Mars bring attention to the identities and responses you may be ready to leave behind. Mercury and Venus begin carrying inner discoveries into thought, conversation, connection, and embodied choice.
Let integration happen through the ordinary moments of your days. Notice the story you repeat, the words you choose, the way you respond to your own tenderness. Each offers somewhere to begin.
You do not need to rush toward a finished version of yourself. Allow your intentions to take shape through listening, and let what you have learned gently influence how you meet the days ahead with care.

Aries Rising
Something within is asking you to slow down and listen, Aries Rising. As you make room for feeling, you may discover a steadier trust in yourself beneath what once felt difficult to face. Let honesty bring you closer to your own courage. Understanding begins to form around your emotional world, while your desires within relationships become easier to hear. Give these discoveries space. They are inviting you into a more conscious relationship with your inner life and the connections you choose.
Taurus Rising
Your relationships are making room for a different way of being together, Taurus Rising. Notice the expectations you carry into connection, the familiar stories that shape what you offer and what you allow yourself to receive. Some may be ready to end. This week invites you to bring what you have learned into everyday life, through your conversations, choices, and treatment of yourself. Let your desires become something you practise, allowing love and intention to influence how you move through each day.
Gemini Rising
There is an invitation to reshape your everyday life, Gemini Rising. Begin with what your body needs, what your deeper knowing has revealed, and what you want your days to hold. As understanding returns, allow yourself to move forward gradually, choosing habits that reflect who you are becoming. Your creativity and capacity for connection are opening, too. Notice what feels joyful to express and natural to share. Let these discoveries have a place within the ordinary rhythm of your life.
Cancer Rising
Give yourself permission to follow what feels playful, Cancer Rising. Your creativity offers somewhere for emotion to move, whether through art, physical expression, or the simple pleasure of making something without an outcome in mind. Beneath this invitation, old emotional patterns are beginning to loosen. Listen to what your body communicates as they do. There is room for more of you here: your feelings, your joy, your presence. Allow expression to help you discover what is ready to come alive.
Leo Rising
A younger part of you may have something to share this week, Leo Rising. Listen for the beliefs formed early in life, the words absorbed before you could question them, and the ways they still colour your relationship with yourself. You can meet those memories from where you stand today. Offer your younger self the understanding you now hold and the love you are learning to give. Let your inner dialogue begin reflecting your worth, making room for a kinder voice.
Virgo Rising
Give your thoughts somewhere to go, Virgo Rising. Write what feels uncertain, speak about what matters, or let a trusted person hear what you have been carrying. Expression can help you recognise the difference between an old fear and a truth that belongs to you now. Your mind is finding another way to understand and describe your experience. Meanwhile, your body asks to be included in this renewal. Let the way you care for yourself reflect a growing recognition of your value.
Libra Rising
Return your attention to the space you occupy within yourself, Libra Rising. Notice what has been taking up room: an old identity, someone else’s emotional expectations, or an experience that continues shaping the present. This week invites you to loosen their hold and feel what becomes available. Your body can become somewhere you meet yourself again, with greater presence and honesty. Allow who you are today to influence your choices. There is space to begin living from a more current understanding of yourself.
Scorpio Rising
Meet yourself with curiosity this week, Scorpio Rising. Look beyond the descriptions others have offered and the identities that once helped you understand your place in the world. What feels true when you allow yourself to be honest, tender, and present? A different understanding of who you are is beginning to emerge. Give it room without requiring an immediate definition. As older versions of yourself loosen their hold, you can begin recognising the person taking shape through your feelings, desires, and choices.
Sagittarius Rising
Honour the quieter rhythm moving through you, Sagittarius Rising. Some beginnings first arrive as a feeling, asking for privacy and patience before they are ready to become visible. Give yourself moments without the need to explain, decide, or produce. Listen for what returns when there is room to hear your heart. A hope, a dream, or a long-held desire may begin speaking again. Let release and reconnection happen gently as you sense the first movements of a new chapter approaching.
Capricorn Rising
Your sense of what lies ahead is beginning to become clearer, Capricorn Rising. After a period of looking inward, you may find yourself recognising what you want to build, experience, and give your time to. Stay close to what feels meaningful and fulfilling. Let that understanding develop before asking it to become a complete plan. Expectations about how your life should unfold may soften along the way, leaving more room for a future shaped by what matters to you now.
Aquarius Rising
Understanding is beginning to gather around your direction, Aquarius Rising. What feels purposeful? Where do you want your energy and contribution to go? Give these questions room to settle beneath the expectations and familiar opinions that may have shaped earlier answers. Some voices no longer reflect what you know about yourself. Allow them to become quieter as your own sense of meaning grows clearer. Your next steps can emerge from this deeper relationship with what fulfils you and where you feel called.
Pisces Rising
An inner conversation is becoming easier to understand, Pisces Rising. Over recent weeks, you may have been noticing where inherited beliefs meet a knowing that feels more personally true. Let yourself hear what that exchange has revealed. There is room to question a perspective you once accepted and to recognise how your understanding has changed. As these discoveries reach awareness, allow them to influence the way you see your life. Your choices can begin reflecting more of what you have come to know.
