Holy cow, that was intense! I told you that new Moon was out of this world.
Let’s hear some stories.
New Moon in Scorpio 2009 – What happened?
63 Responses to “New Moon in Scorpio: How Did You Fare?”
I applied for college. Scorpio is on my 10th, so … big day for my MC.
I have never applied for college before and I really want to get into this one. It represents a sea change in my life and a complete and utter turnaround of where my life has been heading.
I got nuttin’. {Shrugs}.
Sorry to hear that Shell. Hope you are better now.
I went to a meeting which was going well until a giant argument broke out!
I found out a miserable secret that affects me and another person who still has no clue. An open dirty secret with the ones in denial affected greatest, something like you already warned of. Still grappling with how to deal with that but I am trying to transcend. Not my place to spill the beans, I’ll just end up sinking deeper in shit.
Battling ‘the crush’ on all angles here and my cardinal house issues are a mess. This is going to be a long death.
Damm near kicked an old friend to the curb last night. He had the nerve to rub some shit in my face from 34 years ago when we were married. I couldn’t keep my mouth shut and with smug arrogance and self rightousness I told him the exact spot in the woods where the bear did shit, and continued with people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. I guess it was my moon sq. jupiter. I was feeling attacked now for my behaviour back then, and since then I have cleaned up my act, and my moon conjunct saturn was getting no support.
Never dreamed at looking at his chart ahead of time. Then I wouldn’t have had to rely on mercury sextile chiron and mercury sextile MC to save the friendship.
His moon opposed jupiter, mars, and squared pluto.
Plus his new moon is in his 7th house.
What a night! I think I’m glad I didn’t tell him to KMFA.
Among other things, we became a 1 car family. We were a one motorcycle family 30 years ago, it’s very strange.
My anxiety is enormous. Still figuring out life with the new neighbor and my tiny apartment. But my anxiety feels….beyond me, Shallow breathing, rapid heartbeat, perceived threats– can’t seem to make it sink it that i am safe and have options. I feel frozen — in my own fear.
Hope everyone’s okay Elsa.
Hmmmm, well you were right Elsa, I had this little freight train coming at my Saturn, which ran right in to my Grand Cross, and blew everything to smithereens. I’m still here, but I think I scared alot of people away, I’m still kind of scratching my head, as the dust is still falling. Thanks for the heads up.
I’m still not sure. 12th house impacted here. It was deeeep. I’m not confused. Just waiting to see where the ripples go because I know what happened created some ripples. For John (and me through him) it was about amputating some energy drains. You can’t pour your energy out without getting fed something in return or you become a hollow shell.
I had a good day. it happened in my 12th house. Just a nice relaxing day. My husband bought a truck (It happened in his 3rd house)
We just spent the day together… had a good time. We haven’t had that in a while.
Got food poisoning:/ …..two kebabs in one day…not a good idea…so yeah intense!! …atleast in the bathroom:/ But that is probably too much info..
Yes, that was very intense, woke up puzzling over a strange dream until I realized it had pointed out some of those blind spots you were talking about the other day Elsa! Spent the day reliving and grieving some very sad stuff, fearful about money/security issues, and I kept getting these weird flashbacks of me making some big mistakes back in the day. Painful but enlightening – sooo Pluto.
Also spent some time practicing gratitude for the good things/people in my life (the folks at Elsa’s came up – thank you to everyone here, just for being who you are!)and setting my intentions to channel some of that new moon energy and plan some useful new stuff for the days ahead.
I feel good today – all that yucky stuff from yesterday just dissipated. But that was tough.
I dealt with some very deep issues of heritage, religion, favoritism, and came out trusting myself, believing that none of those things matter in the end – integrity, attitude, and character are the most important things, and that’s how you will be remembered.
home sick but had to deal with a metric ton of email from work. was in my 3rd house.
Well, I had the most intense migraine of my life which blacked me out through the entire day.
hope the car situation wasn’t from a wreck, elsa.
the eclipse didn’t really register – the pluto/saturn sq has my attention
It was actually a good day for me!
I was surprisingly calm too.
yesterday was the last day of a 17 day master cleanse for me. felt great in the daytime, but night was no bueno. boyfriend was cranky and we had words but were eventually able to smooth it out (late night phone convo)…caraazy…
The new moon occured in my 7th and sextile my natal sun, so far nothing happened.
Happened right on my NN in my 5th. Pretty sure I didn’t get pregnant 
but I did spend the entire day working like crazy for a startup project… I hope I helped plant a seed. I feel fed up and dissatisfied, but since that’s continuing, I’m going to take that more as a Saturn-Pluto crush thing.
((((shell)))) I hate ear infections. Hope you are well. and (((elfxys)))
yay, Piya!
3rd. near the t square. made some decisions about college. got a lot of useful information. realized these people are actually, overall, on my side… felt way more detached from administration as an undergraduate the first time
It’s my birthday today – a solar return. I have a lot of things going against me, but against all reason, I felt uplifted and positive all day!
I had an intense dream that my grandmother called me and asked me to come over that she was ready to die. When I got there, she was happy and asked me to sit on the bed with her and I held her hand, but she was so alive and happy that I thought she was teasing…then she said….”I love you, be good to yourself and then she smiled and said, “goodbye” in a really cheerful voice. and she lay back down on the bed and just faded until her skin was grey….and I started crying and asking her not to leave me just yet.
I have cared for my grandmother since my mother passed away 10 years ago….she lived with me for over a year until we had to put her in a nursing home but I still go take her out to lunch on weekends and we laugh and laugh like two little girls.
Well, when I checked my messages on my phone the next day, there was a call from the nursing home telling my grandmother was really agitated and was not herself. I immediately went over and we sat and talked for a long while. She kept saying she was tired….I came home and looked at her chart and Pluto is passing over her 8th house. She is 93 and lived a very full, exciting life….I just have had so much fun with her and will miss her terribly. She is my last link to my spanish heritage and my parents who have been gone for a while, but if the time is near….she and I on a soul level are ready.
p.s……she is a Scorpio Sun and Scorpio Moon…..intense little woman….like a female napoleana! haha
my downer hit 2 days prior to the new moon and so, by the lunation, I was calm in the aftershock. It had to do with a person who treated me incredibly underhanded, mean, jealous, nasty, fedup and still refuses to pay for work done. This has a long history, so I guess I am relieved to have the truth exposed.
Also, started bleeding with this new moon – and my, I ain’t ever bled like this – I could say almost 10 times my usual flow – and, my two close friends in other cities have also experienced same time and same unusual strength…….anyone else?
I’ve been about the biggest smart ass thanks to this new moon. Seriously, thanks.
Congrats to Piya! Still finishing up my college essay over here 
. Good luck!
After a period of staying above the fray, I got into a venting/bitching session with co-workers. It was cathartic until it was reflected back and I saw how ugly it could be. Not a pretty sight. Spent the evening filing, shredding and throwing out paperwork that’s been piling up. So I’d say it was a “cleaning house” kind of day. The new moon was in my 5th house conjunct Mercury, trine Pisces moon, and a I’ve got a 4th house Sun in Scorpio.
but i should say that today was a very good day for me. 180 degree turnabout.
Ah the comment I posted before my previous comment disappeared.. eaten by the spam bot. Well hopefully it posts eventually cause otherwise there would be no context to my last statement :p
((((shell)))) I hope you feel better soon
(((elfxys)))
***silbi*** Happy Birthday!
(((denamaria))) I’m glad you’ve enjoyed your journey with your grandmother.
As for my new moon in my 10th house conjunct my neptune and square my sun… well, yesterday was uneventful and I didn’t get the call I expected for a 2nd interview 
Today, I was fit to be tied. I was confronted with stressful situations all day long and I didn’t handle anything coolly – my temper was on boil. I was going to blame that on moon square my mars/venus/jupiter today but maybe it’s the way the new moon hit me…
Physically I felt it–I work outside and it’s been freezing and monsoon-ing and that is tough. Been thinking it would be nice to be a white collar worker, that’s for sure. Bumped into botg my ex and my new dude (they both have Scorpio Moons at the same degree as this moon) at the same time. It may have been awkward except my ex is a very gracious man and made it easy on me.
Venus, Sun and new moon all transiting my 7th house. Nothing out of the ordinary happening though.
Nov. 16th was the last day on the movie set. Got paid! and slept very comfortably. Woke up early and hung out with friend, cleaned and organized. So far so good. =)
I had a really vivid dream about two chairs that were available at a prestigious university – one was called the Part of Spirit, and one the Part of Fortune. I had been given the Part of Fortune and the lady who was showing me my workstation printed a picture from the computer of the symbol for Scorpio. The new moon fell in my second house where my moon and neptune live so I don’t know, possibly issues to do with self-esteem? I went to college the next day and came home feeling really depressed about not being good enough….bleeugh.
”I had to be REALLY careful with my temper. By mid-afternoon though I felt back to my normal self”
Me too Tam! Everyone was asking me what’s wrong with me because I am not temper very often! I had a terrible headache for 2 days! I wanted to sleep it off ! I had a huge trip over my past(memory) and I think I managed to clear off a few uncertenties
Today i feel my old over-ecxited self THANK GOD!
I just checked now!!
New Moon fell on my 9th house conjunct My natal Venus!!!! It explain a lot !
I’m in the Tam and Moonpluto boat…temper flaring and anxiety and it’s still lingering. First new moon I went to work for in a while too (the last two or three I stayed home).
Que sera!
hugs to everybody, we deserve it. 
Duh! The new moon’s in my Sag 2nd house, no wonder all that stuff about security issues and money came up – good thing I set an intention of finding new/different income streams!
Sending ((((big hugs)))) out to all those feeling the pinch, hang tough everyone. And a ‘specially stout hug to denamaria, you’re in my thoughts and prayers, you must let us know how your grandma’s doing okay? And what a good granddaughter you must be, taking care of her the way you do
Seriously good article in the Astro Dispatch by moonkissed – ‘Scorpio New Moon: Hecate’s Moon and Dead Wood,’ much good food for thought.
new moon in my 2nd house, working on server couldn’t get anything to work right, felt like i wasn’t earning my pay, hard! this morning my husband handed me a book and pointed me to the page one of the solutions was on. my saturn is in 2nd house too and NN
Nothing much at all. One thing, I had a (small) surgical operation yesterday (practically just moments after the Moon went to Sagittarius). So, everybody that knew (mostly women) were wishing me well and asking me whether I was nervous. I wasn’t, and, infact everything has gone well this far.
My partner (Leo) had a big shouting fight with our builder (Aquarius). It left him pretty upset. Both signs squared by the New Moon.
Anyway it cleared the air brilliantly and now the builder is doing the right thing. Yay for fireboy!
The new moon in Scorpio yesterday has proven to be very trying for me.
For the past weeks I’ve been rethinking a choice I made about pursuing a certain direction within the master of Political Science. I’ve been thinking about the choice between Comparative Political Science and Political Philosophy throughout the summer. I finally made a choice for Political Philosophy, for a number of different reasons that seemed valid to me at the time I had to make the decision. However, I’ve been particpating in 3 seminars now and I’m not a happy camper. Yesterday I was at my moms when the bomb burst and I just broke down crying because I was so unhappy with my choice (on top of that, I had a bad case of PMS).
I had a fall out with her and went back to my own place when this morning I woke up to make an appointment with my study advisor to discuss the options I have for switching to the other program. So tomorrow we will meet. I’m friggin’ nervous.
Also, this morning I finally started my period. This is relevant because the moon has been so influential this time.
My rising sign is Scorpio, 10 degrees, so this new moon was in my 1st house. Also, the Moon, in my chart, rules my 9th house of higher education and philosophy.
And here’s what it says in Susan’s forecasts:
“This time the new moon will fall in your solar first house, the house that describes the essence of your personality and how you view yourself. It is the house that holds all your deeply held thoughts and dreams, and all your plans to move ahead in certain areas. These are private thoughts, entirely yours, so I can’t tell you what they are, but you already know. You will have two weeks from November 16 to make an initiation on something dearly important to you.”
Also, today I had a talk with my study advisor. She told me I have a VERY small chance of succeeding in getting this change done, and It’ll have to go through the examination committee. Pray for me!
Hi everybody,
The New Moon wasn’t too bad for me. It fell in my 2nd house. I went for an MRI of my ankle (I have been having some pain there due to an ankle strain) and then came home. There has been a mysterious growing of tension there between me and my mother (uncharacteristically unspoken and unacknowledged between us). I had dinner and watched a funny movie in my room. I have been trying to journal every night and I set some very firm intentions not to let the intensity that’s happening in the cosmos pull me into a negative vortex.
The New Moon opposed my Mercury and NN in the 8th house, so I think that was pretty fitting.
((((Big hugs to everybody who is going through some really tough shit right now)))))
I was horribly depressed and a bit angry which is really weird for me. The only planet I have in Scorpio is Jupiter at 00 degrees.
moonpluto… my experience was just like yours. freaky and uncomfortable
Thanks Elsa!
Swamped with work – more than anything, really. THe new moon was in my 8th house conjunct natal Uranus in Scorpio. So the sudden influx of work and income was quite a lot to take in.
This was also squaring my Mars and Jupiter and I could not say that there were episode that I have not almost lost my temper.
Aww…. my comment didn’t get added it.
But, tis okay.
All I remember about the comment/day is the word “horror” and writing about being a little disconnected from my body at work.
New Moon landed in the 6th.
Thank you, Elsa!
I had a very unpleasant conversation with the HR person at work on the 16th, about my trying to get a slightly earlier shift so I could attend grief support groups and chronic pain support groups. HR has documentation from my doctor saying I should not be working later than 5 p.m., and HR somehow interpreted this several months ago as my doctor being okay with my being put on a 10:30 to 7 shift. The recent conversation had HR telling me they had written to my doctor saying that I had agreed to this shift (I hadn’t; it was presented to me as not having a choice), and that they would not let me off any earlier. I am alone, with no local friends and no family, and so finding support (especially for the pain) is essential.
I spent my birthday on the 17th in bed with a migraine all day.
And today I checked my work email and found an email from the Operations manager saying we “need to have a talk”.
Well, since that recent solar return featured some pretty huge indications of change, I wonder if I’ll still have a job in a few days when I’m back at work. Pluto is heading for my 6th-house Saturn… Saturn (ruler of my 6th) is heading for my 3rd-house Venus… my job is in telephone customer support, so… and Jupiter/Chiron/Neptune are all squaring my Sun.
I actually had it in my first house conjunct natal Uranus which trines natal mercury in the 5th which is currently being conjunct by transiting Uranus – so it’s all pretty exciting for me!
I wasn’t expecting anything to happen except internal changes & launching of self-made new plans, but co-incidentally (or not), two of my clients officially launched on new moon at the same time after being in stealth mode for ages (I completed my scope a long time ago).
I set some powerful intentions for myself as the new moon fell in my first house. I have Scorpio asc. with a stellium in the the 12th. Very good day for me.
Our office manager had a breakdown and quit with no notice and I have family coming to town for thanksgiving–I need to be in three places at once. I tried to return to a job I REALLY want to go back to–they promised they’d take me back any time I called. But I was informed their business has tanked in the past two months–so maybe yes maybe no.
Bad mojo with my husband over work stuff, house stuff,future stuff.. we’re both too stressed to think clearly!!
BAD flare up of my shoulder pain issue. How do you know if it’s heart attack or just shoulder pain?????
LUCKILY–the latest Carline Myss book appeared in my library and I was first on the list to receive it! I am immersed in spiritual reading and meditating. Have a date night with the DH to make nice.
That and some Ben and Jerry’s oughtta help…
