November 2028 new moon: Thursday 16 November in Scorpio

The November new moon is exact on Thursday, 16 November 2028 at 13:20 UTC, with the Moon and the Sun together in Scorpio.

Meaning

A new moon in Scorpio starts what needs privacy: the therapy, the debt plan, the research into what actually happened. Tell one person, not everybody. The cycle is unusually good at finishing what earlier attempts left half done.

Rituals

  • Set 1–3 intentions you can act on within 48 hours
  • Clear digital or physical clutter in one small area
  • Light a candle and name what you are calling in

Journal prompts

  • What do I want to begin without needing instant proof?
  • Which habit would change everything if I stayed consistent?
  • What would feel like self-respect this week?

Questions about the November 2028 new moon

When is the November 2028 new moon?

Thursday 16 November 2028, at 13:20 UTC — the moment the Moon and the Sun meet at the same degree of Scorpio. Nothing is visible that night, which is why the date is computed rather than observed.

What sign is the November new moon in?

Scorpio, the sign the Sun is passing through. A new moon is a conjunction, so the two bodies always share it, and it moves on by one sign each month.

What time is the November new moon where I am?

13:20 UTC in Universal Time, which is one instant everywhere. New York runs five hours behind it, Madrid one or two ahead, Buenos Aires three; if it falls close to midnight your local date sits a day either side of 16 November 2028.

When is the next new moon after this one?

16 December 2028, in Sagittarius. New moons repeat every 29 or 30 days, and the table above lists all of them for 2028.

What should I do on the November 2028 new moon?

Start one thing and keep it small enough to survive the week. The usual practice is to write one to three intentions within a day of 13:20 UTC and take a first step inside forty-eight hours, with Scorpio setting the tone. Endings belong to the full moon a fortnight later.
