Exact instant: November 9, 2026 at 07:04 UTC — Moon at 16°53′ Scorpio. Computed by the observatory's VSOP87 pipeline, not reprinted.
At 07:04 UTC on November 9, 2026 the luminaries conjoin at 16°53′ Scorpio. The timing is the story: this seed point arrives four days before Mercury stations direct in the same sign and five before Venus turns direct in Libra — the last new moon of the year's densest review period.
A Scorpio new moon at the tail of two retrogrades reads as clearance work: the debt named so it can be retired, the secret converted into a plain sentence, the entanglement given an ending date. It is a better fortnight for closing the old file than opening the new one — the genuinely new start gets far better sky within the week.
Where 16° Scorpio falls in your houses names what the clearance is about; the axis partners at 16° Taurus, Leo, and Aquarius feel the undertow. By the Gemini full moon on November 24, every personal planet is direct and the year's forward gear finally engages.

How were these times computed?
Every instant on this page is a root of the same VSOP87 ephemeris pipeline that casts charts on this site — the engine solves for the exact geometry (conjunction, opposition, station, or cusp crossing) rather than reprinting an almanac. Lunations are good to a few minutes; stations are shallow turns, so treat their clock times as accurate to a few hours.
