The new moon in Cancer takes place this upcoming Mars day, 06/28 at 10:52PM est, 7:52PM ptd. With this moon taking place in its ruling sign, we can expect heightened intuition and emotions at this time. Jupiter in Aries squares off to this moon, which can lead us to jumping to conclusions and poor reactions. Reminding ourselves to not take everything personal including the projections of others, is important at this time. Jupiter in Aries also has strengthened our passion and drive to push through our goals. This has been beneficial to boosting our confidence and belief in self. While Cancer enjoys the predictable status quo, Aries seeks a new journey to embrace. This aspect can lead us to reflect on our personal goals and our progress within them. Sometimes our goals feel distant to us because we’ve chosen our comfort zone instead. Often times our goals require us to move outside of our comfort zone and embrace the unknown.
New moons are often about new beginnings, but this new moon reminds us that we must first be ready to release what is weighing us down and stunting our growth, before entering a new era. In conjunct to Black Moon Lilith, this moon reminds us the power in embracing our shadow element. Venus in Gemini creates harmony with Pluto in Capricorn, which can help us keep an open mind on how our plans unfold, as they may be re-directed and resurrected into something more stable and successful. As we are entering this new moon cycle, Neptune also stations retrograde this same day. This retrograde which is ongoing until 12/03, highlights the benefits of solitude and tranquility. Our intentions planted under this moon will require complete focus and patience.
Aries
This week and moon cycle highlights the need for an emotional release. After holding onto things for so long, it can begin to slow us down! Release to receive. Not only will you feel more light, but you’ll gain an abundance of insight too.
Taurus
More stability and success can be created under this new moon/week, if you’re able to remain optimistic. Don’t give up just yet! You’re about to get to the good stuff. Clear out what is necessary, so you’re ready when the prosperity is delivered.
Gemini
A necessary wake up call and clarity could be delivered to you at this time. While you receive these details, give yourself time to digest them and unplug if necessary. Your intellect and intuition will guide you accordingly.
Cancer
With this new moon taking place in your sign, taking the time to slow down and reflect can be beneficial. Avoid keeping your thoughts and emotions bottled up, as this can cause destruction. Just be mindful of how you deliver your message!
Leo
There could be some blockages building up this week and causing delays in your plans. However this doesn’t mean you should criticize yourself to the point you want to quit. It’s okay to take a break and return when you’re ready.
Virgo
You may feel heightened static and “noise” in the air this week, as your ruling plan creates tension with the planet of dreams, illusion and spirit. Focus on simple tasks and remove all distractions as necessary. Everything is falling into place.
Libra
This week/moon cycle may create tension with personal affairs. Instead of overthinking the issue, focus on your personal goals for the year. Giving yourself space to review these, also gives those involved with your affairs time to reflect. This issue may also be the catapult to necessary release for your own growth.
Scorpio
Be open to receiving good news this week including new paths to abundance opening up. You don’t have to do anything (in fact don’t!) to receive this blessing, you just have to stand still and trust! Your patience and stillness leads to more than what you expected for yourself.
Sagittarius
This week is all about recharging and taking time to breathe out. Although you may receive the luck of your planet on your side (as always), this is not the week to test your limits. You may also feel more emotional/irritated with affairs at this time. Focus on giving yourself grace and forgiveness.
Capricorn
Allow yourself to be more free this week and tap into your creative side. A new perspective may develop at this time which can support your plans and bring forth more progress. Keep an open mind!
Aquarius
Although it may feel like you’re putting out a lot of fires lately, keep your head up! Release from these blockages can take place this week through a revelation that leads to a change in plans. Keep your eye on the prize and remember how far you’ve come.
Pisces
Your mind may create more distractions than usual this week, as you may be focused on the emotional depths you’re feeling. Allow yourself to completely focus on these, so that you can release them and move forward. When in doubt, trust your intuition.
