New Moon November 1, 2024 – Democracy or Autocracy

This post was originally published on Astrology King

The Scorpio new moon in November 2024 is favorably linked to Saturn. So the spiritual meaning of the November 2024 new moon astrology is self-discipline, reliability, dedication, loyalty, and respect.

The responsible attitude promoted by Saturn is needed to tame intense desires and aggressive urges caused by Mars opposite Pluto. The US Presidential election comes down to a battle between democracy and autocracy.

New Moon November 2024 Astrology

The new moon on Friday, November 1, 2024, is at 09°35′ Scorpio. The red line in the chart below shows Mars opposite Pluto. This defining aspect of the November 2024 new moon is challenging, but there are many more harmonious blue aspects to ease the tension.

New Moon, New Start

Sun conjunct Moon (0°00′) represents cyclic renewal. It is the end of a 28-day moon phase and the beginning of a new one. Now, you can draw a line under the past, turn over a new leaf, and start fresh. You can also question old habits, behaviors, and beliefs as you search for creative and inventive new ways to grow and prosper.

The monthly alignment of the Sun and Moon reconciles your conscious ego and subconscious feelings to provide balance, focus and perspective. It gives a rejuvenating burst of energy, initiative, and enthusiasm. So, the November 2024 new moon is excellent for starting new projects, defining your priorities and setting ambitious goals.

Saturn Stability

New Moon trine Saturn (3°18′) brings stability, balance, structure, routine and reliability. It reduces tension and removes obstacles so you can focus on achieving and accumulating things and reinforcing the foundations of your life.

Increased determination, persistence, self-discipline and a sense of responsibility help set and reach long-term goals. They can be substantial and ambitious yet achievable and realistic.

Relationships benefit from mutual understanding, dedication, loyalty, and respect. The November 2024 new moon is excellent for formalizing a partnership, and a significant new long-term relationship may begin.

The orb of over three degrees makes this a moderate influence. However, it is still significant because it is applying, climaxing on November 4.

Mars-Pluto Extreemism

Mars opposite Pluto (0°40′) has a more potent effect that climaxes on November 3. It gives intense desires but difficulty in achieving them. This conflict between your desires and actions can create incredible inner tension and volatile relationships.

Your desire to achieve your goals can make you competitive, domineering, ruthless, extreme and aggressive. Considerable achievements are possible if you can channel such primal urges into physical or creative work.

However, your actions can make others feel threatened or intimidated. Using ruthless, subversive, immoral, or illegal tactics could bring resistance from powerful enemies. Maintaining high moral standards will increase the likelihood of success. But if you realize your efforts will not succeed now, you can transform your goals and relieve the tension.

Mercury-Mars Convincing

Mercury trine Mars (0°51′) promotes quick thinking, ingenuity, and decisiveness. This helps you channel the anger of Mars opposite Pluto into words, smart ideas and a plan to achieve your goals. Sharp senses, resourcefulness and a sense of adventure allow you to take calculated risks.

More honest, straightforward and convincing communication helps avoid confrontation and defensive reactions. This aspect also gives you the courage and confidence to defend yourself, your loved ones, or an issue you care about.

New Moon November 2024 Constellations

The new moon in November 2024 is in the Sign of Scorpio but the Constellation of Virgo. The Signs are nearly 30° out of alignment with the Constellations because of the precession of the equinoxes. Also, Virgo is the longest constellation, spanning 50° along the ecliptic.

The new moon aligns most closely with stars in the constellation Coronae Borealis, the Northern Crown.

• 08♏51 – 109 Virginis
• 09♏27 – β Coronae Borealis, Nusakan
• 09♏35 – New Moon November 2024
• 09♏47 – θ Coronae Borealis
• 10♏05 – Omega Centauri
• 10♏28 – μ Virginis, Rijl al Awwa

Nusakan is a variable double star with spectral classes A5 and F2. This equates to Venus and Mercury, which give love, intelligence, refinement, neatness, idealism, hospitality, diplomacy, artistic and musical talents and psychic ability. The variability adds disagreements, inconsistency and unreliability.

Constellation Corona Borealis the Northern Crown, gives artistic ability, love of flowers, lassitude, disillusionment, and a position of command. ^[1]

Virgo Constellation promotes order, steadiness, harmony, respect, practicality, accuracy, analysis and ingenuity. It tends to make people more industrious, discriminating, conscientious, humane, meticulous, constructive, and tidy.

However, harsh aspects (Gemini, Sagittarius, Pisces) can cause worry, arrogance, prejudice, hypocrisy, gossip and self-pity. They can also make people selfish, snobby, boring, too cautious, timid, fussy, nagging and critical. ^[2]

New Moon November 2024 Meaning

Mars opposite Pluto is the primary influence on the new moon in November 2024. It creates intense desires but powerful resistance, making you extremely competitive, ruthless and aggressive. It also brings the risk of extremism, polarization, violence and authoritarianism.

Mercury trine Mars brings quick thinking and direct communication to help you achieve your desires. Or it can help you transform your goals if they are not achievable. On the other hand, Mercury trine Mars can create inflammatory words to encourage racist fears about immigration and acts of violence and subversion.

Thankfully, Saturn’s steadying influence on the November 2024 new moon should reduce tension by promoting self-discipline and responsibility. As I predicted, it may see a continuation of the Democratic presidency. But if Saturn manifests more as conservative values than stability, I get Trumped.

Moon Phases

The influence of the November 1 new moon lasts four weeks up to the December 1 new moon. The best time to start new projects is during the two-week waxing moon phase, from November 1 to 15.
