The New Moon in Cancer on Saturday the 10th of July








Edited by Gemma



How Will We Experience the Coming New Moon in Cancer?

This week’s New Moon will be at 18° Cancer conjoining the Sun, also at 18° Cancer.

The Sun is illuminating the Moon, bringing her watery depths to the surface while the Moon infuses the Sun with her goddess nurturing abilities of creation, so the New Moon is a great time to set our intentions for the future, while imagining the gifts we would like to come our way on an emotional and spiritual level. The planetary conditions are perfectly opening us up to receiving this intuitive light.

With the New Moon occurring in Cancer, focus may be primarily on home and family, with many opportunities for reflecting on our memories of our past emotions during those times in our lives we were called to search deep within ourselves for purpose, meaning and resolution. These are the times that may have stood out to us the most in our past, throughout our lives. Especially with Jupiter still moving retrograde through Pisces, we may take a recap of our values and recall the reasons they meant so much to us when we first developed them.

The New Moon will Oppose Pluto

Pluto is in a strong position again on Saturday as he will be opposing the New Moon. This promises an even deeper delve into our emotions with an offering of memories from our distant past, as they promise to bring us wisdom and strength when we accept them and bring them in to us to merge with our light. Pluto, like Jupiter, is also retrograde, further intensifying the likelihood of us reaching back into our minds for all the hidden gems we might find there. Pluto also teaches us survival and bolsters our strength, which works wonders for us whenever we know we need that extra resolve and firmness of intention.

When Jupiter Trines Mercury

This Jupiter retrograde will trine Mercury in Gemini, which may have us thinking a lot about our values we have relied upon and the philosophies that brought us towards taking these on as aspects of ourselves many years ago. We may feel like we want to reset and refresh our outlook within our home life and with our families so that we can move ahead of this New Moon feeling enlightened in a new wave of positivity.

More about Saturday’s New Moon in Cancer

Venus Conjunct Mars in Leo

With Venus moving swiftly ahead towards a conjunction with Mars in Leo, there might be an extra flair of fun and some more emphasis on pleasure injected into our lives. Passions in romance will be heightened and even those of us who are usually the shyest may be feeling more confident and bold. Mars in conjunction urges Venus on to react and express with affection and joy, while Venus in return can temper Mars’ roughness, opening him up to a more sweet and sensual language style.

Saturn opposite Venus and Mars with Uranus square

Saturn is opposing the Venus Mars conjunction, so there might be some balancing to do between pleasure, self-care and work. The desire and need for all these things may become quite pressing at this time, with Saturn in domicile in Aquarius, calling for many levels of activity. Uranus in Taurus will be squaring this opposition, so he will be forming tense aspects to all three; Venus, Mars and Saturn. This can be a good thing, because these tense aspects with Uranus can inspire creative action, perhaps encouraging us to think on our feet to come up with ways we can balance our work and leisure time. Other ways we may become inspired to act are through the projects we have already been working on long-term, as we may suddenly realise all the ways we can smooth these over and refine them for the pleasure of others (or our clients). We may also want to ramp up our exercise schedule or our beauty regime. Either way, we can usually rely on Uranus to help keep things fresh and exciting.

The Midheaven and the Ascendant

The Aquarius Midheaven will be ruled by Uranus, while the Gemini Ascendant will be ruled by Mercury, therefore the two planets in our solar system who will be supporting the whole chart of the New Moon this week are both very closely connected with the mind, ideas, communications and technology. With Uranus under stress and Mercury in domicile in a trine to Jupiter, the chances are that anything related to these should be moving forward at good speed, even though they may not always be necessarily moving in a direction that is according to our pre-made plans as Uranus is known to cause a little disruption to our schedules when under stress.
