Monday 9th November - Plant the Seeds of Transformation
Today's a day to welcome a fresh beginning, reconnect with your deepest desires, and set intentions that reflect what you genuinely want to change, create, or experience in your life.
With the New Moon in Scorpio and Monday ruled by the Moon, today's energy brings emotional depth, intuition, and the possibility of transformation, encouraging you to look beneath the surface of your everyday wishes and consider what would make a meaningful difference to your life.
The New Moon marks the beginning of a new lunar cycle, offering an opportunity to set intentions and consider what you'd like to welcome into your life.
In Scorpio, those intentions take on a deeper quality.
Scorpio encourages you to explore what matters beneath the surface.
Your desires.
Your motivations.
Your emotional needs.
The things you're ready to change.
And the possibilities that feel exciting, even if they also bring a little uncertainty.
Sometimes we set intentions based on what we think we should want.
- To be more productive.
- To achieve more.
- To become better organised.
- To do everything we've been putting off.
But today's New Moon invites you to consider something more personal.
What do you genuinely want?
Perhaps you're longing for greater freedom.
A deeper connection with someone.
More confidence in your own decisions.
A different relationship with money, work, or time.
Or the courage to pursue something you've been quietly dreaming about.
Scorpio reminds us that meaningful change often begins with acknowledging a desire we've been reluctant to admit, even to ourselves.
Today's magick lies in being honest about what you want and allowing that truth to guide the intentions you plant for the lunar cycle ahead.

🌿 Everyday Magickal Moment – The Desire Beneath the Desire
Find a quiet moment with your journal, a candle if you wish, and something to write with.
Begin by writing:
"Something I really want is..."
Allow yourself to answer freely.
It might be something practical, emotional, creative, or personal.
- Perhaps you want a new opportunity.
- More time for yourself.
- A stronger relationship.
- A different routine.
- Greater financial security.
- Or the confidence to make an important change.
Once you've written your answer, ask yourself:
"What would having this give me?"
Write down whatever comes to mind.
- Perhaps it would bring freedom.
- Security.
- Connection.
- Joy.
- Recognition.
- Peace.
- Or a greater sense of possibility.
Then ask again:
"And why does that matter to me?"
Keep exploring until you reach something that feels particularly meaningful.
You might discover that your desire for a new opportunity is really about wanting greater independence.
That your wish for a more organised home is connected to a longing for peace.
Or that your desire to try something new comes from wanting to feel more adventurous and alive.
Use what you've discovered to create a New Moon intention.
For example:
"I welcome opportunities that give me greater freedom."
"I create more space for peace and ease in my life."
"I trust myself to explore the possibilities that excite me."
Choose an intention that feels genuinely yours.
Say: "I honour what I truly desire and plant the seeds of meaningful change."
If you've lit a candle, spend a moment looking at its flame and imagining how your intention might begin to take shape.
Then identify one small action you could take during the coming lunar cycle.
What might change if you allowed your deepest desires to have a greater influence on your everyday choices?
🔗 Want More?
- Write three New Moon intentions that reflect what you genuinely want rather than what you think you should want
- Notice where you've been dismissing a desire because it feels impractical, uncertain, or difficult to achieve
- Choose one small action that could help you move towards a meaningful change during this lunar cycle
- In your Magickal Living journal, write: "Deep down, what I really want is... and I'm ready to honour that desire by..."
The New Moon invites you to plant the seeds of a fresh beginning, Scorpio encourages you to explore the deeper desires and motivations that make change meaningful, and the Moon reminds you to trust your emotional wisdom as you begin creating a life that reflects more of what truly matters to you.
