You can't go wrong following the moon. Like a good tour guide it will show you all the sights including those off the beaten track. On Wednesday, Nov. 3 at dawn, a leaf-thin crescent will appear about 3° above the planet Mercury.
Mercury and the very thin lunar crescent pair up about 3° apart 1 hour to 45 minutes before sunrise on Wednesday morning, Nov. 3 low in the southeastern sky. Fainter Spica, Virgo's brightest star, appears nearby. Contributed / Stellarium

New Moon November 2021: How To Harness The Moon In Scorpio
Ready for an extreme makeover? Or a notable shift? The 2021 Scorpio new moon gets the ball rolling.

Moon Phases May Affect Sleep Differently in Men and Women
As the moon's brightness increases daily from a new moon to a full moon, the time that it reaches its highest point in the sky also shifts from midday to near midnight. The reverse happens after a full moon, with brightness decreasing each night.
The researchers found that study participants slept a little less on nights when the moon was waxing, or brightening, compared with waning.
When to See November's Lunar Eclipse of the Beaver Moon
The beaver moon will be full on the evening of Nov. 18 and into the morning of Nov. 19. In North America, if you look high to the west at 2:19 a.m. ET, you'll also be able to see the start of a lunar eclipse.
The beaver moon won't disappear like the sun does during a solar eclipse. Instead, it will gradually darken and turn a coppery orange color. Most of the sunlight that usually illuminates the moon will be blocked, but some rays will bend around the earth and still get through.

Sky shorts: A chance to see the Blood Moon
On that night, the sun, Earth, and moon will line up and most of the moon will move through the darkest part of Earth's shadow. 97% of the moon will be covered by the Earth's shadow.
The eclipse will occur only 1.7 days before apogee, the point in its orbit when the moon is farthest from Earth. It will take the moon longer to pass through the Earth's shadow because the moon will be apparently smaller and more distant. So, bundle up and get comfortable.
