Astro Iris June wraps up with a fresh start sparked by the New Moon in Cancer ♋️. A new chapter, a step forward. Or maybe a few bold leaps!
That’s the beauty of life: it doesn’t wait for anyone. It just happens, always moving, shifting, adapting, and manifesting itself, if I may say so.
On June 25 at 1:31 PM Romanian time, the New Moon in Cancer hits at 4 degrees (07’). This cosmic event lights up the cardinal signs, so expect fresh developments in the areas of your natal chart ruled by Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.
Now, Cancer is hosting Jupiter, which supercharges this moment. As a water sign ruled by the Moon itself—the queen of our emotions—Cancer stirs up themes of family, femininity, roots, birthplace and homeland.
This New Moon lands in the 10th house, the realm of social status and career, with Libra rising, nearly opposite heavy-hitting Neptune and 🪐 Saturn in Aries, chilling in the relationship zone (think partnerships, marriage, or official dealings).
In plain English? Expect new beginnings that shake up your career, social standing, family life, relationships, and even your values—especially around money and your connection to your origins. You’ll feel a nudge (or a cosmic shove!) to change things you’ve been feeling need a shift, and then you’ll strategize how to make it happen. You’ll want to act with precision, maybe even obsess over the tiniest details but rest assured: once you start, you’ll see it through to the end.
This New Moon will have you itching to adapt to the new possibilities peeking over the horizon. But here’s the catch: responsibility and maturity are non-negotiable. Without them, your relationships might take a hit, and your public image will mirror how you present yourself—warts and all. Diplomacy and balance are key, first within yourself, then in your professional, romantic, and social circles. You’ll be drawn to alliances, forming groups based on shared interests, and doubling down on loyalty, belonging, and security.
This New Moon’s power is amplified, both because it’s in its home sign of Cancer and because Jupiter’s hanging out in the Moon’s house. You might feel overwhelmed by emotions and feelings you’ve been dodging like a pro. The more you try to outrun them, the louder they’ll get.
Now’s the time to embrace your fears and vulnerabilities and build from them. Once you see these emotions as resources, you’ll find healing and learn to harness their strength. If you’ve been coasting toward a destination, this moment will give you the speed, confidence, and clarity to charge toward it.
Cancer’s archetype also screams absolute authority, so you might discover your inner boss, boosting your confidence to tackle anything.
The Sabian symbol for 4 degrees Cancer, “A cat arguing with a mouse” hints at a potential clash. It shows we’re different, which puts us in situations to learn from each other. It’s about authority versus vulnerability, power versus resistance. Ultimately, it confirms that vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s cleverness, perseverance and strength.
Final message: The sky’s the limit. Look up!
