It’s a New Moon this Week!
The week begins with the moon in Taurus on Monday, giving a stability and productive mindset. The focus is on the future and how you can secure what you want. It can also be a foodie night, made for having your favorite comfort food or snuggling up with a blanket and a movie.
Tuesday begins an energetic shift and is the busiest day of the week. Neptune stations retrograde, offering you a chance to pause and reflect on your dreams. Mercury moves into Leo, taking the mental focus inward, and lets you think about yourself and your needs. And if that isn’t enough, the moon is moving into Gemini, spicing things up with lots of choices, interests, and insights. Let your intuition come online and lean into anything that feels fun, fresh and inspirational. The moon is in its balsamic phase giving an extra dose of gut instinct. Trust yourself to make wise choices.
Wednesday and Thursday have a potential for fireworks, both through arguments and drama. Try to sit back and watch the show. You may be feeling impatient and frustrated. Or shy and defensive. You’re trying to get to the bottom of something, or complete a task you don’t want to share with others, so keep it to yourself if you don’t want to emote in the wrong places. You can use physical activity or keeping yourself busy to make the 4th of July a happy holiday all around.
Friday is a New Moon. In Cancer, it may ask you to do some reparenting of your inner child, and self-nurturing, as emotions might be a little raw or tender. It can be an emotional time and you might feel a little moody or overly protective or attached to someone or something. It typically brings nurturing, emotional, and home-oriented energies. It’s a time for new beginnings related to family, home, and personal security. This can be a time to stay in and lean into healing practices.
On Sunday, the moon moves into Leo, giving another dramatic shift energetically. The lion is roaring, and you might be too. Take the lead, be open-hearted, and have a laugh. It will do you heart good after a waterlogged week. Leo energy brings optimism and a happier, lighthearted vibe. Creativity, social outings, and being seen are ways to tap into your inner Leo.
And here’s what’s happening for your zodiac sign this New Moon week:
Wherever you are, find your flow with your horoscope for the week. You can use your Ascendant or Sun Sign to start, but check in with your Mars, Venus, or Moon sign – as they too may offer additional clues that can be helpful.
Aries
Aries, this New Moon highlights your domestic sphere. It’s a great time to start new projects at home or spend quality time with family. You might feel a strong urge to create a cozy and nurturing environment. Topics of shelter, security, and having a safe place will be high on your priority list this week.
Taurus
Taurus, this New Moon encourages you to express your feelings and connect with those close to you. It’s an ideal time for heartfelt conversations and resolving any misunderstandings with siblings or neighbors. You may feel chattier and more social than usual. Let the words flow as a source of healing.
Gemini
Gemini, the New Moon brings attention to your financial security. You may find new ways to boost your income or set up a budget that makes you feel more secure. It’s a good time to invest in your home. If you do have the urge to spend, investing in small self-esteem boosters like do-it-yourself beauty treatments, or searching for treasures at a second-hand store are small things you can do to boost your confidence while saving your cash.
Cancer
Happy Birthday Cancer! This is your New Moon, and like the start of a new year, it’s a powerful time for personal development and new beginnings. Set intentions related to self-care, appearance, and personal goals. It’s your moment to shine and start fresh. Let yourself dream big and envision all the ways you can grow in the coming year. This year features multiple tracks growing simultaneously, so don’t feel like you have to choose.
Leo
Leo, the New Moon illuminates your spiritual sector. You might feel a pull towards introspection, meditation, or exploring your subconscious mind. It’s a good time for spiritual growth and inner healing. Envision the Hermit card in the tarot and seek solace alone and in contemplation. You’re getting ready to level up but first you need to envision what that means for your soul. Stillness and quiet are your best allies right now.
Virgo
Virgo, the New Moon in Cancer is a great time to connect with friends and social groups. You might feel a renewed sense of community and belonging. New friendships or involvement in group activities could be beneficial. Take opportunities to connect and network. You never know how relationships formed now may be helpful in the future. It’s all about planting the seeds.
Libra
Libra, this New Moon highlights your career and public image. It’s a time to set new professional goals and seek recognition for your hard work. Consider starting new projects that align with your career aspirations and make you feel more secure. If you’re thinking to switch jobs soon, this is a good time to update your resumes and portfolio. Put feelers out on any positions that pique your interest.
Scorpio
Scorpio, the New Moon brings a focus on education and/or long-distance travel. It’s a great time to start a new course of study, plan a trip, or engage in activities that broaden your horizons. You may be feeling restless and need a new direction. Take the leap and strike out into territory you’ve never experienced before. Risk taking can feel really good for you right now.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius, this New Moon emphasizes shared finances and deep emotional connections. It’s a good time to manage joint resources, debts, or investments. Emotional bonds can be strengthened now. You’re tuning in at a deeper level and may feel ready to be more vulnerable and honest. If you’re feeling raw you’re on the right track. Take the leap, you’ll be glad you did.
Capricorn
Capricorn, the New Moon in Cancer highlights your partnerships. It’s a prime time to start new relationships or bring a fresh perspective to existing ones. Try to see things from their perspective. Focus on balance and mutual support. How can you get what you need, while also being a shoulder to lean on? When working with others, communication is a two-way street and you may need to give something to get something.
Aquarius
Aquarius, this New Moon focuses on your daily routines and health. It’s an excellent time to start new habits, improve your wellness, and organize your day-to-day activities for better productivity. This idea of changing things up isn’t new. It has been brewing all month long for you. Now it’s time to crystallize the plan and make it last. It takes twenty-one days of consistency to make a new habit become routine. Plan your days accordingly.
Pisces
Pisces, the New Moon brings a burst of creativity and possible romance. It’s a wonderful time to start new creative projects or deepen romantic connections. If you’re single, do things that feel romantic to you. Fresh flowers, lighting candles at dinner, or getting lost in a rom-com can be fulfilling. Allow it to heal your heart. Let your imagination and emotions guide you. Things are flowing and it feels good. Lose yourself in a carefree pastime.
