This weekend marks the Scorpio new moon, the start of a six-month cycle that helps us all reconnect with the people, projects and ideas that matter to us most. New moons encourage fresh starts, and one falls in a different sign each month.

Scorpio rules a whole host of things -- intimacy, sex, trust, psychology, joint finances, real estate and large chunks of money (like taxes, inheritances and royalties). Are you ready to confess your deeper feelings? Share an erotic fantasy? Do you owe money on a credit card, or want to reorganize your finances? Scorpio is where “me” merges into “we,” so the new moon can be a favorable time to talk with your sweetie about cohabitation, engagements or kids.

We’re fans of astrologer Jan Spiller’s book "New Moon Astrology," which suggests “new moon wishes” you can make every month, specific to the sign the moon is in. It’s a great ritual to sit down and focus on what you’d like to manifest. Once it’s clear and committed to writing, you’ll be amazed at what you attract.

What is your new moon wish?
