November's New Moon occurs in tropical Sagittarius while in trine aspect to Jupiter stationing direct in Pisces. After two heavy eclipses, this lunation is an uplifting reprieve and gentle integration of the past month. However, feeling restrained by present circumstances can also compel one to reach out for more, so this is a time to wisely reflect on all motivations and impulses to gain clarity before stepping ahead.

New Moon's correlate with the emergence of some new potential, dynamic, or impulse--a reset within our personal and collective narratives. In the sign of Sagittarius and aspecting its ruler, Jupiter, this New Moon opens new possibilities, horizons, and experiences more so than usual. There can be a rise in optimism and expansiveness around this lunation that carries over from the past week.

However, the shadow of these archetypal dynamics can equally correlate with careless or unquestioned confidence about one's perception of truth. Zeal, dogmatism, and unchallenged crusades against some perceived evil can also gain traction. Before jumping to conclusions or getting swept up in emotionally charged passion, think and reflect carefully on the details or true motivations.

In the several days surrounding this lunation, it'll be easier than usual to find an outlet or support for our passions, enthusiasm, and faith. As with anything in astrology, there are both positive and negative possibilities. Both the trine aspect and archetype of Jupiter open doors and provide access to new vistas and arenas, but not all luck or opportunities are equal. Be discerning between real growth and mere temptation.

However you notice or respond to this lunation, you'll likely find yourself moving more confidently toward a new experience, territory, or possibility. And while there are certainly more positive potentials here, the above mentioned cautions should definitely be noted. Yet, with increased consciousness, this is an ideal New Moon to renew faith, hope, and optimism and to seek new experiences that bring you closer to attaining a bigger truth, understanding, or awareness.
