The passionate and intense New Moon in Scorpio coincides with the celebrations of All Saints’ Day, Halloween, Samhain and the Finnish Kekri. This is considered a time when the veil between our physical world and the spirit world is at its thinnest. Candles, lanterns and bonfires are lit to illuminate this dark time.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The traditional and modern rulers of Scorpio, Mars and Pluto are in exact opposition to each other. The New Moon is in conjunction with Zhulong, a scattered-disc object in a 2:5 resonance with Neptune.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Zhulong was discovered in 2014 by Pan-STARRS (<\/span>The <\/span><\/span>Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System<\/span><\/span>), an astronomical survey program which is systematically surveying the entire sky on a continuous basis. Other discoveries by Pan-STARRS are for example Oumuamua, the first interstellar object detected passing through our solar system; <\/span><\/span>Ka\u02bbepaoka\u02bbawela, an asteroid in a 1:1 resonance with Jupiter, and possibly of interstellar origin too; and Kamo\u02bboalewa, one of the quasi-satellites of Earth.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The orbital period of Zhulong is around 420<\/span><\/span> years and its diameter is about 233 km. Zhulong is named from Chinese mythology after the Torch Dragon, a giant red dragon with a human face and scarlet serpent body. It controlled the day and night by opening and closing its eyes. It has been described as shining a torch over \u201cthe ninfold darkness\u201d.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
