The Scorpio New Moon arrives on November 9 at 2:02 a.m. Eastern.

I will be asleep.

Moonrise is in the morning here in Central New York, and I’m not setting an alarm for that either. I’ll make my wishes when I’m awake and have a little room to think.

The funny part is that I just wrote about this in the revised edition of Manifesting with Moon Magic. Apparently, I’m getting an opportunity to practice what I wrote almost immediately. 😂

One of the things I wanted to make clearer in this edition is that moon wishing needs room for your actual life. You can have a job, children, an unpredictable schedule, or simply a perfectly reasonable desire to stay in bed.

For me, the New Moon is a regular invitation to consider what I want and put it into words. Knowing the exact time can be interesting without turning it into an appointment I have to keep.

If Scorpio’s themes of honesty, transformation, and looking beneath the surface speak to you, start there. What do you want that you’ve been brushing aside? What change are you ready to begin?

You might write:

“I intend to be honest with myself about what I want.”

“I intend to take one small step toward a change that matters to me.”

“I intend to make room for my own needs.”

Or write something completely different. Your words should sound like you.

I’ll be making my wishes after some sleep, probably with my morning coffee nearby. That feels like a practice I can keep returning to.

The revised and illustrated Third Edition is still in the proofing stage. While we wait, you can explore the current book and pick up your free Moon Wishing Starter at manifestingwithmoonmagic.com.
