New Moon Moon in Scorpio. Every reading below is built from the real positions of the planets today.
Today's sky
Tap a moment to see what it means and what to do with it.
All dayA quiet, dark-sky reset
The New Moon is the start of the Moon's monthly cycle, when it is almost fully dark and only 1 percent lit. The Moon stands for your feelings, instincts and daily habits, and today it sits in Scorpio, a sign of intensity and honesty. Emotions feel private and deep, and you want to begin fresh.
Try this: Write down one honest intention for the coming weeks, something you truly want, and keep it to yourself for now.
In astrology terms: New Moon Moon in Scorpio, 1% lit.
Strong feelings push back
A square is a 90 degree angle, a tense one that sets two themes against each other. Here the Moon, your feelings and instincts, clashes with Pluto, the planet of deep change, power and what is buried. Old emotions surface fast, and you feel a pull to control things or to hold on tight.
Try this: Notice which feeling grips you hardest this morning, name it plainly to yourself, and let it pass before you react.
In astrology terms: Moon squares Pluto.
Your heart finds its words
A conjunction happens when two bodies share the same part of the sky, so their themes blend into one. The Moon, your mood and instincts, joins Mercury, your mind and the way you speak. What you feel and what you think line up, so putting your feelings into words comes easily.
Try this: Have the conversation you have been postponing, and say what you feel in simple, direct sentences.
The Sun in Scorpio moves through your eighth house, where shared money and private truths live, and the Moon meets Mercury there at . A conversation about what you owe, or what is owed to you, comes back around. Mercury is retrograde, so old figures and old promises resurface; reread the statement, the text thread, the agreement before you answer. You feel a pull to say the whole thing at once. Say less and say it precisely. The person across from you listens for what you leave out as much as what you say. Tonight, open the one shared account or shared plan you have been avoiding and read it start to finish.
Mercury retrograde in Scorpio sits in your seventh house of partnership, and the Moon joins it at . A conversation with your partner or closest counterpart circles back to something you thought was settled. Because Mercury runs backward, the reply you get is not the one you expected, and it is more honest for it. Stay in the room. You do not need to win the point; you need to hear the real one. The Moon is nearly dark, so quiet attention does more than a big speech. Invite the person across from you to say what they actually want, then repeat it back in your own words before you respond.
The Sun in Scorpio lights your sixth house, the one that runs your daily routine and your body's needs. The Moon squares Pluto at , and you wake with a heavy, restless sense that your schedule asks too much of you. That feeling is accurate. Mercury is retrograde in the same house, so a habit you dropped months ago returns, and it fits you better than the replacement did. Notice which part of your week leaves you tired before it starts. Today is for trimming, not adding. Tonight, cross one item off your list and leave the space it frees empty.
The Sun in Scorpio warms your fifth house of romance and play, and the Moon meets Mercury there at .

The first version had a spark you forgot. The Moon is nearly dark, which keeps the mood private and unhurried. Let yourself enjoy the work without deciding what it is for.

Mercury retrograde in Scorpio moves through your fourth house of home and family, and the Moon meets it at . A topic around the house returns: who handles what, a relative's mood, a repair that never got scheduled. Old family patterns speak loudly today, and you hear your own voice in them. You are strong enough to be the calm one without being the one who fixes everything. Listen first, and let the quiet people in the household finish their sentences. Sit down with the person you live with, or call the relative you owe a call, and ask what the home needs this week.
Mercury retrograde in Scorpio crosses your third house of messages and daily work, and the Moon meets it at . An email, a draft or a half-remembered instruction needs a second look, and your sharp eye finds what everyone else skimmed. A message you sent earlier gets answered in a way that shows it was read differently than you meant. Clarify without apologising.

Venus retrograde in your own sign sits at 23 degrees of Libra, in your first house, and today it turns your attention to how you present yourself.

The Moon meets Mercury in your second house at , which brings the same question to what you value and what you keep buying to feel settled. You already own more of your style than you admit.

The Sun in Scorpio lights your twelfth house, the quiet back room of your chart, and the Moon squares Pluto at while you are likely still asleep or newly awake with a racing mind. Thoughts you push down during the week press up early. They are not emergencies. They are things you have not had space to feel. Mercury retrograde in the same house asks you to think backward before you move forward. Cancel one obligation today if you can, and take a slow walk with your phone left at home.
The Sun in Scorpio moves through your eleventh house of friends and hopes, and the Moon meets Mercury there at . A group chat revives an old plan, or a friend you lost touch with writes back. Mercury is retrograde, so the plan comes back in a changed form, and the change is an improvement. You tend to wait until things are organised before you say yes.

Ask your manager or client one clarifying question about what finished looks like, and write down the answer you receive.

Follow the curiosity it leaves behind. Read ten pages of something that stretches your view, and write down the one question it raises for you.
