Moon Magic—Full Moon and New Moon Tarot insights for November 2025
November is a month of reflection, gratitude, and grounding. Use this season to pause, gather what matters, and give thanks for both what we have and what we’ve outgrown. The moon’s rhythm mirrors this beautifully.
This month’s Full Moon in Taurus is also a supermoon, the largest and brightest full moon of 2025, bringing grounded energy and amplified clarity. Taurus calls us to appreciate stability, comfort, and the sacred routines that nourish us, while the New Moon in Scorpio invites deep release and soulful transformation.
As the outer world grows quieter, the lunar cycle encourages us to look inward, root down, and realign with what truly sustains us. Let this month’s moon phases and tarot insights guide your gratitude and growth.

Tarot Spread using my Practical Tarot deck:
Card #1 – What needs releasing?
Page of Cups – Cups symbolize the element of Water and represent our emotions and intuition. As you deepen your spiritual path, don’t forget the healing power of joy. Let go of self-judgment and the need to take everything so seriously. Laughter, lightheartedness, and curiosity are essential. Release emotional heaviness and let your heart lead you with wonder and play.
Card #2 – What is transforming?
The Magician – Your connection to the universe is strengthening, and your ability to manifest is evolving. You have all the tools you need. Stay focused, keep your energy aligned, and trust that your vision is coming to life. Transformation is already underway.
Card #3 – What can you learn?
2 of Swords – Swords symbolize the element of Air and represent thought, clarity, and communication. A choice lies before you, and avoiding it won’t bring peace. It’s time to face it with trust. Take off the blindfold and face the decision. Meditate, tune in, and make your move. The birds symbolize your guides and angels. You’re more supported than you know.
Affirmation: “I root myself in gratitude, trust my inner wisdom, and welcome joyful transformation.”
Journaling Prompt: What beliefs or emotional patterns am I ready to release so I can create space for peace, clarity, and joy?
New Moon in Scorpio – November 19, 2025
Scorpio is a water sign known for its emotional depth and power to transform from the inside out. Paired with the New Moon’s energy of renewal, we are being offered a potent opportunity to release what’s hidden, heal what’s been buried, and begin again with greater clarity and courage. In tarot, Scorpio is linked to the Death card, symbolizing necessary endings that clear the way for profound rebirth. Let this New Moon be your invitation to rise from the ashes, lighter and more aligned than before.
Tarot Spread:
Card #1 – What is no longer in alignment?
3 of Swords – You may be overthinking a painful situation, creating mental narratives that block clarity and healing. It’s time to express those emotions honestly. Write them out, then read them back with compassion. Your truth will become clearer, and the storm in your mind will begin to settle.
Card #2 – What aspect of your life is undergoing deep transformation?
5 of Cups – Grief over past choices or perceived failures is ready to be released. Instead of focusing on what was lost, turn your attention to what remains. The transformation begins with gratitude. When you honor what still supports you, you open space for healing and growth.
Card #3 – How to open your heart
The Lovers – Strong partnerships and choosing to work with others will help you heal and find the courage to trust again. Choose the relationships that reflect your values. Mutual commitment and emotional presence will help rebuild trust and remind you that love—of all kinds—is worth the risk.
Affirmation: “I release what weighs me down and open my heart to healing, love, and meaningful transformation.”
Journaling Prompt: What am I ready to let go of emotionally, and how can I begin to trust in love, connection, and my own ability to heal?
As the radiant Taurus Full Moon reminds us to savor what is steady and fulfilling, the Scorpio New Moon encourages us to release what no longer resonates, making space for a more authentic, aligned life. These lunar phases are beautifully balanced. One invites gratitude for what we have; the other empowers us to expand beyond what we’ve outgrown.
This November, let your rituals, reflections, and tarot practice be acts of thanksgiving. Express gratitude for the lessons of the past, the stability that holds you in the present, and the courage it takes to transform in the future. In honoring both your roots and your rebirth, you create a powerful foundation for everything you’re becoming.
The moon will light your way. Give thanks, trust the process, and keep moving forward with an open heart.
“This month we’re honoring the beauty of what grounds us and giving thanks for the courage to let go. The moon reminds us that gratitude and growth always go hand in hand.” – Lisa Kessler
