Astrological forecast: New Moon 9th November 2026 Samhain, the Celtic New year: re-find your path!
Following the will of not being conditioned by a fixed program, this 9th Nov NM
announces the feast of Samhain, usually located on the 31st Oct-1st November, called
by the matrix = “Halloween”. But, like the Chinese NY, a new year really starts on a
new moon and shakes up the calendar!
Reminder:
The Festival of Samhain marked the end of the Celtic year and the beginning of the
new one. In ancient Celtic religion, one of the most important and sinister calendar
festivals of the year. At Samhain, held on the 1st NM of November, the world of the
gods was believed to be made visible to humankind, and the gods played many tricks
on their mortal worshippers; it was a time fraught with danger, charged with fear, and
full of supernatural episodes. Sacrifices and propitiation of every kind were thought
to be vital, for without them the Celts believed they could not prevail over the perils
of the season or counteract the activities of the deities.
During Samhain and Scorpio times, the sun has descended into the realm of the
underworld (Pluto), the forces of the underworld are in the ascendancy. The lord of
the underworld, unfettered from the control of the sun, now walks the earth and with
him travelled all those other creatures from the abode of the dead.
Chart of the New Moon and its mysteries:
*The warriorish attitude : Sun + Moon+ ascendant in Scorpio, Mars in Leo!
- Sun and Moon in Scorpio often referred to as a "double Scorpio" or "Stellium"
(+Mercury). This combination means both conscious identity and emotional needs
are filtered through the same intense, water-fixed energy, resulting in unwavering
consistency between inner feelings and outer actions, but with no built-in
mechanism for lightness or emotional counterbalance.
- Tracks:
- Exceptional ability to understand human psychology.
- Control of mind and body, Transformation.
- Loyalty and Secrecy.
- Ability to handle crisis situations.
- Struggling with loneliness.
- Intense relationships.
- Revealing an unexpected creative force.
- The Scorpio ascendant confers a magnetic, intense and mysterious presence, often
perceived as intimidating but deeply seductive. In relationships, the Scorpio
ascendant demands deep emotional intimacy and absolute fidelity; betrayal is
unforgivable there.
Key words:
- Magnetic presence.
- Ability to personal transformation.
- Inner confidence.
Mars in Leo: the planet of action resides in the fiery, fixed sign of Leo, creating a
dynamic, confident, and expressive energy. This aspect might involve dynamic
behaviours like avoiding dramas, being enthusiastic and brave, choosing open
confrontation over passive aggression.
Tracks:
- Embracing creativity
- Leadership
- True self expression
* Spot on Mercury R in Scorpio, the scout planet:
This aspect occurs from 24th October 24 to 13th November 2026, marking the final
retrograde of the year. This transit is notable for remaining entirely within the sign of
Scorpio, a fixed water sign associated with emotional intensity, transformation, and
hidden truths.
This is the perfect time to align yourself with your deep feelings and your
intuition.
* The subtle parallel with the NM in Taurus (16th May 26)
This NM in Scorpio is the counterpart of the NM in Taurus, mirroring a cycle of 6
months and showing us what has be done or seen, and what has to be done and seen.

And I would like to add this article that suits Samhain, as Mercury R in Scorpio is not
logical or rational any more. It is sensitive.
