On November 20th the Scorpio New Moon greeted us at 28 degrees of Scorpio accompanied by Mercury and Venus also in Scorpio – Sun, Moon, Mercury and Venus in Scorpio. The descent into the darkness of our deepest feelings, our deepest knowing, our deepest surrender to inviting and allowing the end to all past identities, fears, losses, pain, and resistance to/attachment to who we have been is the transformation we have always sought. The transpersonal planets are sounding the notes of this frequency up-level. A new day, a new us, a new world is preparing for birth.

The 4 Scorpio planets are opposite Uranus, the planet of freedom, radical change, and urgent progress. Uranus is the calling of the higher mind breaking through the fog of habituated thoughts, beliefs and societal imprinting to “Know Thyself” as the sovereign “I AM” whose intuitive, expanded awareness knows. A free mind is liberated from the past, unlimited by false separation from full potential. It is time to break free, to leave behind the prison of what we have been told to believe, who we have been told we are in order to discover for ourselves what we actually know, who we actually are.

The Grand Trine in the water element is extraordinary – 4 planets in Scorpio, Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces.  Of the 10 traditional planets, 7 are in the emotional, feeling, intuitive signs meeting in the grace, the gift, the invitation to an integration of our emotional state of consciousness. This exceptional support for our ability to leave behind our past pain through the transformation of Scorpio healing as Jupiter in Cancer nourishes our hearts and souls as Mother Gaia holds us in her womb while Saturn and Neptune in Pisces awaken the Spiritual Heart of our full humanity. The North Node of the Moon in Pisces is our future reality being revealed in this 3-month preparatory period.

Mars in Sagittarius demands the Truth internally in our own recognition of where we tell ourselves stories, we have outgrown, no longer need, that keep us stuck in the past. This demand for truth is also external as we humans demand the truth not the old lies from our leaders, our governments, our corporations, and our global institutions.

The final 3 months of pregnancy are the weeks and months when the fetus develops the capacity to live outside the womb – to mature and grow into its ability to leave the womb and become a separate individual. Growth and development are rapid during this phase of preparation for birth.

We, too, are entering the final 3 months before February 20, 2026, when we reach the rebirth of humanity’s capacity to live as conscious beings in alignment with our planet, Mother Gaia, all the abundant life and creatures of Earth, and as participants in our Cosmic Solar System. This period prior to our evolutionary birth into heart awareness is one of maturing, nurturing our inner growth, and focusing on releasing our past definitions of ourselves as limited by our past experiences.

As Mercury left its retrograde motion on the November 29th and moves toward full motion forward on December 16th, it informs our next full moon in Gemini/Sagittarius on December4th fulfilling the mental integration of the emotional work of the recent New Moon of Scorpio. After the deep, intense, challenging work of these last 3 months, understanding is growing ever clearer. Sagittarius season, Mercury retrograding in Sagittarius and the coming Full Moon in Gemini are restoring, renewing HOPE.
