This New Moon, Trust Your Own Sense of Direction

Ava Tichenor

Dear Astrology Reader,

On the 9th November 2026, we have a New Moon in Vishakha nakshatra which occurs in sidereal Libra of the zodiac wheel.

Vishakha is a branch like a forked road, reflecting dual paths and versatility. The ruling deities are Indra and Agni: force and willpower. One of its symbols is a potter’s wheel. 

Let’s imagine that you are the potter, and you have come to the forked road. This new moon is spinning like potter’s clay on a wheel. You have an idea, something new that has been revealed to you, or a difficult choice, and you have an internal desire to find the form within the formless. Only after dedicating time, force, and willpower to this raw material will you see a vessel of real worth—one that has moved on from chasing empty desires and can now hold something with true purpose, like inner wisdom, leadership, or abundance and grace.

“Facing the fork in the road that lies before you, enshrouded in darkness, you must rely on your own intuition to feel which direction is the right one for you to take.”

At this time, the Sun is debilitated in Libra, so the path ahead is not illuminated, and the Moon is dark. Facing the fork in the road that lies before you, enshrouded in darkness, you must rely on your own intuition to feel which direction is the right one for you to take.

Your purpose is protected, so don’t let the mind games of past failures get in your way. You are moving forward into something tangible. Ahead lies some work you will need to put in, but follow your own pace—the result will be the same whenever you arrive there.
