Cosmic beings, welcome to the grand finale of Scorpio season… and it’s not going to be quiet. This week, Mercury returns to Scorpio on the 18th, joining Venus and Sun in this emotionally raw, highly transformative water sign. With so many planets swimming through the shadows, don’t be surprised if your inner world feels louder than usual. Conversations could return to long-forgotten truths, secrets could leak, and connections—especially romantic or financial ones—may deepen or dissolve. Venus in Scorpio craves intimacy with a big “I,” and Mercury’s return here suggests that the universe is giving us one last chance to dwell on the unspoken once again.
Meanwhile, the moon will disappear from the sky from November 17th to 19th. This is the dark phase of the moon: the quiet, liminal space before a new beginning. It is a cosmic cocoon that invites silence, surrender and deep emotional excavation. During this time, old insecurities, shadow selves, and fears may surface, not to punish you, but to be witnessed, embraced, and alchemized. If you think too much, oversleep, or even cry unexpectedly this week, you won’t be broken, you’ll be exhausted. This is the fertile ground in which your next version takes root.
