🔭 Major Astronomical & Planetary Events: October 27 – November 2, 2025
Written by Mia Astrology
You’ll feel this week before you see it. The air hums differently — a little heavier, a little wiser. The New Moon in Scorpio opens the week like a deep inhale, asking us to begin again, but this time from our truth. Venus reappears at dawn in her quiet brilliance, Jupiter shines bold after midnight, and the faint shimmer of the Southern Taurids adds just enough sparkle to remind us that even endings can look beautiful.
This is a week of emotional rebirth. Don’t rush it. Let it unfold slowly, like moonlight finding the ocean.
🌑 New Moon in Scorpio — October 29
Here comes the deep reset. The Scorpio New Moon invites you to release emotional residue and step into your power with honesty and softness. Scorpio energy isn’t about drama — it’s about depth, transformation, and intimacy with truth.
🌟 Good for: shadow work, journaling, therapy breakthroughs, sacred solitude.
⚠️ Avoid: reacting from fear or control; this is a time for awareness, not battle.
💫 Intuitive Message: The New Moon is your emotional detox. What’s been buried rises now to be healed, not to haunt.
🌙 Don’t forget: our Moon Intentions page includes Scorpio New Moon prompts to help you set goals from your soul, not your ego. Check your Weekly Horoscope to see which part of your life this rebirth touches most.
☿ Mercury Enters Scorpio — October 30
Mercury joins the Sun in Scorpio, sharpening intuition and deepening emotional intelligence. Communication becomes more soulful, secrets surface, and small talk feels impossible.
🌟 Good for: deep conversations, research, unveiling truth.
⚠️ Avoid: suspicion or paranoia. Not everything hidden is dangerous.
💫 Intuitive Message: Speak from your gut. If it feels true in your body, it’s worth saying.
🌠 Southern Taurid Meteor Shower — Active All Week, Peak Near November 5
While its peak is next week, the Southern Taurids start to build now, bringing occasional fireballs streaking across the sky. If you’re lucky, you might catch one early — slow, golden, and unhurried.
💫 Intuitive Message: The Taurids remind you that not all brilliance is loud. Some miracles glide quietly through your night sky.
☄️ Comet Lemmon Still Glowing
Comet Lemmon continues to move through the northwest evening sky. It’s faint, but for those under dark conditions, it’s there — glowing softly like a dream that refuses to fade.
💫 Intuitive Message: A comet represents return and rediscovery. If something you thought was “over” starts stirring again, trust that it’s ready for a new chapter.
🌙 The Moon’s Journey
- Oct 27–28: Dark Moon in Libra — final release before the Scorpio New Moon. Rest.
- Oct 29: 🌑 New Moon in Scorpio — emotional renewal, shadow turned to light.
- Oct 30–31: Waxing Crescent in Scorpio — transformation begins.
- Nov 1–2: Moon enters Sagittarius — optimism returns, a fresh breath of faith.
💫 Intuitive Message: This week’s lunar arc moves from letting go to rebirth. Allow the first half of the week to be still; action belongs to the second half.
🪐 Planetary Movements & Retrogrades
- Sun & Mercury in Scorpio: intensity meets clarity.
- Saturn Retrograde in Pisces: gentle accountability continues.
- Neptune Retrograde in Pisces: spiritual clarity grows as illusions thin.
- Uranus Retrograde in Gemini: mental rewiring and unpredictable inspiration.
- Pluto Direct in Aquarius: deep truths are being lived, not just learned.
💫 Intuitive Message: With so many planets swimming through water and air signs, emotions and thoughts blend. Trust feelings as information — they’re not weakness, they’re guidance.
🌟 How to Work These Energies
- Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): The New Moon asks you to surrender control before you ignite new passions. By the weekend, the Sagittarius Moon refuels your fire.
- Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Scorpio energy pulls you inward; grounding rituals and slow days are your medicine.
- Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): Let go of people-pleasing. The Scorpio New Moon wants you to speak your truth, not a polite version of it.
- Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): You’re in your element. Emotional release brings renewal — don’t shy from the waves; they’re washing you clean.
