New Moon Intentions for Scorpio This Month
The new moon descends into darkness like a deep-sea dive—a journey into the mysterious depths where transformation occurs far from surface visibility. For Scorpio, the zodiac's alchemist and truth-seeker, this monthly portal is your sacred domain, where you excel at transmuting pain into power and endings into rebirths.
As a fixed water sign ruled by Pluto and Mars, you possess unmatched capacity for emotional depth, regeneration, and wielding hidden power. When you align your new moon ritual with your transformative nature, you manifest with intensity that literally restructures reality at its core.
Understanding New Moon Energy and Symbolism
The Void Where Death Becomes Rebirth
The new moon represents the darkest point in the lunar cycle—the death before resurrection:
New Moon Represents:
- Death and rebirth cycles
- Shadow work and hidden truths
- Sexual and creative power
- Emotional and psychic transformation
- Releasing control and surrendering
- Merging and deep intimacy
For Scorpio, this energy is your natural habitat. You understand that real transformation requires destroying what no longer serves before something new can emerge. The new moon's death-rebirth cycle mirrors your soul's essential journey.

- Fixed Energy: You sustain transformation through death-rebirth cycles
- Water Element: Emotional and psychic depths power your manifestation

New Moon Intention-Setting Ritual for Scorpio
Sacred Preparation (30 minutes)
Create a ritual space that honors your need for privacy, intensity, and depth:
Set the Scene:
- Light black, deep red, or burgundy candles
- Play deep, intense music or complete silence
- Ensure absolute privacy—lock the door
- Place obsidian, black tourmaline, or garnet crystals nearby
- Use a special journal reserved only for shadow work
- Prepare red wine, dark chocolate, or pomegranate juice
- Include items connected to transformation (snake imagery, phoenix symbols)
- Consider ritual bathing with salt and rose beforehand
Shadow Integration: Begin by acknowledging what you're ready to transform:
- Sit in complete darkness for 3-5 minutes
- Place your hands on your womb/lower belly (power center)
- Breathe deeply and ask: "What am I ready to die to?"
- Welcome any difficult emotions, images, or truths that arise
- Light your candle symbolizing bringing light to darkness
This honors your need to face shadow before creating light.
The Intention-Setting Process (35 minutes)
Step 1: The Death Inventory (10 minutes)
Before planting new intentions, identify what must die. Write:
- What I'm releasing: Specific patterns, beliefs, relationships, or identities
- Why it must die: How it limits, harms, or no longer serves you
- What will be freed: The power or space created by this death
Be ruthlessly honest. This is shadow work.
Step 2: Phoenix Intentions (15 minutes)
Now write 3-7 intentions for what will rise from these deaths:
Example Scorpio Intentions:
- "I transform my [specific pain/trauma] into powerful wisdom and unshakeable strength"
- "I attract a partner who meets me in soul-deep intimacy and radical honesty"
- "I reclaim my power from [person/situation] and direct it toward [specific goal]"
- "I trust my psychic knowing completely and act on my intuition fearlessly"
- "I build wealth through strategic use of shared resources and hidden opportunities"
- "I speak the uncomfortable truths that liberate me and others"
- "I emerge from this cycle completely transformed and more powerful than before"
Step 3: Alchemical Activation (10 minutes)
Scorpio intentions require visceral embodiment:
- Read each intention with full intensity in your voice
- After each, stare into the candle flame and say: "By fire and water, by death and rebirth, SO IT IS"
- Visualize yourself not just having this—but being completely transformed into someone who already embodies it
- Feel the death of the old self and the emergence of the new
- If called, write one intention on paper and burn it safely (fire transformation)
Scorpio New Moon Journaling Prompts
Deepen your practice through unflinching self-inquiry:
-
What truth am I avoiding because it would require everything to change?
- What do I know in my gut that I haven't admitted?
- What reality am I ready to finally face?
-
Where am I using control to avoid vulnerability or powerlessness?
- What would happen if I surrendered control in this area?
- Is my controlling behavior creating the abandonment I fear?
-
What pain or trauma is ready to be transformed into power?
- What have I survived that proves my strength?
- How can I alchemize this suffering into wisdom or service?
-
What am I ready to merge with or commit to completely?
- Where am I holding back from deep intimacy?
- What or who deserves my full, intense commitment?
-
What needs to die for me to be truly powerful?
- What false self or outdated identity must be released?
- Who am I beneath all the protective armor?

Bringing Intentions to Life
The Scorpio Advantage: Alchemical Will
Your superpower is transformative intensity. What would take others years to process, you can transmute in months through your willingness to face darkness and die to the old self.
Daily Death-Rebirth Micro-Practice: Each day, ask: "What small death serves my transformation today?" This might be:
- Ending a limiting belief
- Releasing a resentment
- Letting go of control in one area
- Speaking a truth you've been hiding
- Surrendering one expectation
Weekly Power Check-Ins: Every seven days during this lunar cycle:
- What died this week? (patterns, beliefs, situations)
- What's being born in its place?
- Where did I reclaim my power?
- What truth did I speak or face?
- How am I different than I was seven days ago?
Maintaining Momentum Through the Lunar Cycle
Days 1-7 (Waxing Crescent): Destroy what must die. Dig deep. Face shadow.
Days 8-14 (First Quarter to Waxing Gibbous): Build power. Emerge changed. Take bold action.
Day 15 (Full Moon): Celebrate transformation. Claim your power publicly. See how far you've come.
Days 16-29 (Waning Moon): Integrate change. Rest in the void. Prepare for next death-rebirth.
The Phoenix's Path
Remember, dear Scorpio, that new moon ritual practice for you is fundamentally about death and rebirth. Your intentions aren't gentle affirmations—they're declarations of what you're willing to destroy within yourself to become who you're meant to be.
Your manifestations don't arrive through passive wishing but through your fierce willingness to face uncomfortable truths, release control, and completely transform. This requires the death of who you were to birth who you're becoming.
This is your gift: the courage to descend into your own underworld, transmute what you find there, and emerge wielding power that others fear to claim.
Final Blessing
May this new moon transform you at the deepest levels. May you have the courage to face all truths. May you reclaim every ounce of your power. May you emerge from darkness more luminous than before.
The universe honors those brave enough to die and be reborn. Set your intentions, destroy what must be released, and trust your regenerative power.
And so it is. 🦂🌑✨
