This New Moon invites transformation, emotional release, and a plunge into the unknown. Just as a diving coach guides us to trust the fall, this lunar cycle encourages courage and surrender as we embrace life’s depths. Gear up, because powerful waves of insight and renewal await.
The celestial tides are shifting as we welcome the New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st. This powerful tidal pull on the waters of our body invites us into the depths of our emotions, encouraging transformation and profound healing. At The Sound Temple, we believe that each New Moon offers us a sacred opportunity to set intentions and delve deep into our inner world, and Scorpio’s energy amplifies this process.
Scorpio, ruled by both Mars and Pluto, embodies the essence of Change, Renewal, and the Mysteries of Life. As we stand at the threshold of this New Moon, we are invited to get serious – to dig deep and to take the deep dive, don’t forget to put your hands up high above your head, hands together, point the fingers and tuck that chin in before your face slaps the surface of the pool!
What is really laying beneath the surface, it’s time to stop pretending.
In the tranquil space of The Sound Temple, we often find that the most profound insights arise when we allow ourselves to sit with discomfort and embrace vulnerability. We are all running from home, to drop children off, to gather up some grocery items, to get petrol on the ‘cheap’ day, to get to work, to make appointments and then in the afternoon- try and do it all in reverse and finally you land on the couch exhausted – day in day out! That’s why people feel so relieved when they land on the deck up at The Sound Temple – ahhhhh, the relief is palpable and we love receiving you all – warts and all!
Thanks for taking time out of the crazy world, it’s actually scary to stop sometimes and to hear your own voice and the rubbish that is being cycled round and round and round. Take time to sit in the energy of the New Moon and soak up the cleansing Spirit of this sacred land, enjoy a quiet ceremony which includes your own contemplations of what it is that your Soul needs right now.

What are you yearning for?
Time to ditch the unhealthy thought patterns and limiting beliefs – they are there, you just need to stop for five minutes and they start to go round and round. Hopefully, you spent some time at the last Full Moon of Aries in October when we held space for the ritual of letting go and the focus was all about cleansing the old and making way for the new. It was a time of great action with Mars being right in the foreground ready to pounce – what a fantastic opportunity it was to get so much done!
It’s time to consider a New Moon Session now at The Sound Temple as we host a ceremony where you write down what you wish to bring into your life, what seeds do you want to plant, what desires to you have, dig down into the dark of Scorpio, plunge through the top of the swimming pool, bust
up through the glass ceiling and channel what intentions you have for your immediate future. Forget asking for the lamborgini – maybe ask for Love, maybe write your intentions as if they have ALREADY happened. The more sugar you confirm to the universe you have the more sugar you will receive – true story. We dare you to try it out!
The great thing about connecting in community is accountability and actually writing down these intentions can deepen your own commitment to self!
As we gather for the New Moon in Scorpio, let us also embrace our intuition, sit quietly and see what comes when you listen. Uncle Noel and Artist Elina El Daher created an art piece here on this land during our 10th Year Anniversary Celebrations and it’s aptly named “It’s Time to Listen” – maybe not only to ourselves but our friends, family, loved ones and mostly MOTHER EARTH!
