What July's New Moon in Leo means for you: A horoscope reading for every star sign
New Moons are a time for rejuvenation and manifestation. If you have a lack in your life, then this is the time the collective will work to fill it, whether through a new experience, person, or item. We must make space for beginnings and foolish behaviour during new moons. Mind you, we're all fools when beginning something new, so don't be scared to get experimental. For newbies, a New Moon is when the moon conjuncts the sun to the same degree. New moons are for setting intentions and goals to manifest. Take the theme of each new moon (manifestation period) as inspiration to bring forth the best version of yourself! If you find your horoscope helpful or have any questions, please share your horoscope and tag me on social media @monishaholmes. July's New Moon in Leo will happen on 24th July, 2025 emerging like a sunrise on an unpleasantly cold day and making Leo season the perfect time for shedding personal layers and melting the social ice. Get ready to step out — adorned in your baddest attire — and draped in unshakable confidence. But this New Moon isn't just about flaunting your shine — it's happening in the 10th House of career and legacy, so your outfit isn't the only thing at stake; your reputation is. With Mercury Retrograde also in Leo, people are feeling an emotional pull to defend their egos, preserve their narratives, and secure their spot in the world's memory. This isn't performative confidence — it's ancestral. It's the version of you that refuses to be erased. And here's where things get layered: Saturn and Neptune in Aries are trining this New Moon, which means people may start leaning into masculine-coded power — authority, intimidation, superiority — not necessarily to be oppressive, but to let those optics work for them if it helps get the job done. Intention may be quiet, but impact is loud. Thankfully, Uranus in Gemini is sextiling this lunation, and that's your pressure valve. Think fast. Speak smarter. There's always a third perspective no one's thought of, and if you can surface it, you might shatter the whole illusion that's cornering you. Still, beware: Chiron in Aries squaring the New Moon, and Pluto opposing it, means people are fragile right now. There's cultural resistance to transformation — especially if you don't struggle for it. You might even notice folks clutching onto pain like it's a badge of honour. Let them. That's not your cue. This New Moon is not asking you to invent a new version of yourself, nor does it have any need for you to create a solution for other people's lack of excitement. Instead, you may gain most from finding new ways to look at the features of your uniqueness. How do you move when no one is watching? What if that is your truest dance? What to do for this New Moon in Leo Schedule the shoot, wear the silk, and post the photo that makes your inner critic sweat. Leo rules performance, not for attention's sake, but because self-expression is divine worship. Make your mirror a stage. Let your authenticity rehearse in front of the spotlight until you remember that you were never pretending. Some people will never applaud until you shrink. You don't need their validation — you need your fire back. Notice where you dim your light to make others feel less insecure. This New Moon is your permission slip to stop treating your joy like it's disruptive. If they think you're too much, let them go find less. Take yourself on a date that rivals your Pinterest board. Dress up for no reason. Serenade your reflection. Leo energy lives for love — but the highest octave of Leo love is the kind you give yourself before someone else earns a seat at your table. Wholeness looks good on you. The moments you once felt humiliated by? They're part of your mythos now. Reclaim the plot. Make a podcast episode about it. Write a poem. Turn your heartbreak into a one-woman show. Leo doesn't just survive — it makes the pain into art and the healing into a performance. Let your legacy be one of unapologetic colour. This New Moon in Leo invites you to break character and become the star you forgot you already were. Don't just rise. Erupt. Become the sun that the world was waiting for. And if someone tells you to tone it down, just tell them: babe, this is the toned-down version. Read your horoscope based on your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. Read for your Sun sign to gain insight based on the version of yourself you're maturing into, your Rising sign to reflect on your present state, and your Moon sign for guidance on caring for your inner child. It's okay to want to be adored. This Leo New Moon is blessing your 5th House of joy, romance, and risk. But what happens when the applause fades? With Mercury Retrograde in this same space, you're being asked to revisit how you create, why you perform, and what you hope to receive in return. This lunation is not just about being seen — it's about being felt. Ego may want to steal the mic, but your spirit needs something softer. Create like you've already won. Love like you're not auditioning. And remember: pleasure that's conditional is just performance in a prettier outfit. You've outgrown pretending you're fine at home when you're not. The Leo New Moon is sitting in your 4th House of roots, lineage, and emotional interiors. With Mercury retrograde here too, you may notice yourself rehearsing old lines just to keep the peace. But who does that peace actually serve? This lunation encourages you to re-establish your authority over your own private world. You can't build a legacy on someone else's rules. And you don't need to prove anything to earn protection. Make home a sacred theatre — not a stage for keeping up appearances. The stories you tell about yourself are sacred. This New Moon is lighting up your 3rd House of communication, memory, and inner monologue. With Mercury Retrograde here, expect a resurgence of voices — internal and external — that once made you doubt your clarity. But you're different now. You can speak without shrinking. You can teach without performing. Not everyone will understand your expression, but that doesn't mean it's not resonant. You are allowed to change your mind and still be taken seriously. You are allowed to be radiant and still tell the truth. Especially when the truth comes out dressed in gold. This New Moon is testing the frequency of your self-worth. Leo rules your 2nd House of value, and with Mercury Retrograde dancing in the same space, old insecurities may resurface through your spending habits, your reflection, or your need for validation. But you don't have to fix it all — just face it. If you've been taught that you have to struggle to deserve abundance, this lunation might challenge that narrative. You're not a project. You're not a price tag. You're a person who deserves nice things without performance. Don't let wounded egos set the cost of your glow. This is your New Moon — and the world feels like a mirror. Happening in your 1st House of identity and personal expression, this lunation challenges the version of you that's still trying to be palatable. Mercury Retrograde in your sign adds extra static, tempting you to defend past performances or rework your image. But there's nothing to defend. You're not an explanation. You're a revelation. There's a difference between being perceived and being known. Let this moon teach you the difference. And when people start treating your presence like prophecy, remember — you wrote the story. They're just catching up. This lunation dips into your 12th House — your inner sanctuary and sometimes your subconscious exile. New Moons here don't always feel exciting. They feel like whispers behind closed doors, like sleep that won't come, like shame that never got spoken out loud. With Mercury retrograde also lurking in this space, you may find yourself tangled in thoughts that belong to a past self. Be still. Let her speak. But don't let her drive. You don't need to armour up in intellect or disappear behind your duties. Your softness is not a liability. Let this moon mend your inner altar. This New Moon is giving main character energy to your 11th House of friendship, community, and future dreams. But with Mercury Retrograde in the mix, don't be surprised if the group chat feels…off. There's a difference between being liked and being aligned. Some people orbit your light just to say they've been close to it. That's not loyalty, baby, that's proximity. This lunation is about finding people who aren't just watching your rise — they're rising with you. You don't need to explain your evolution. Just keep becoming. The right ones will find you mid-flight. The spotlight is burning through your 10th House — career, visibility, public perception. This New Moon is asking you to redefine what 'success' means when you're not performing for praise. With Mercury Retrograde here, past achievements (or public missteps) may come back for review. Don't spiral. Legacy is not built on optics—it's forged in integrity. You don't have to dominate to be impactful. You don't have to post to prove you're powerful. You just have to know. Let this moon teach you the quiet confidence that doesn't ask for applause. You're used to looking far ahead, but this New Moon wants you to go deeper—time to confront your feelings sweetie. Leo is your 9th House ruler — home of purpose, philosophy, and the stories we tell about meaning. With Mercury Retrograde here, questions may arise about whether you still believe in the thing you're chasing. You're allowed to pivot. You're allowed to be moved. You're allowed to outgrow the spiritual narrative that once saved you. Let this moon rewire your truth — not with logic, but with fire. You don't need new doctrine. You need devotion that doesn't shrink your joy. This New Moon glows in your 8th House — the place where we hold power, pain, and the pieces we've merged with others. This transit might make you feel a little raw. Mercury retrograde here is resurrecting emotional debts and psychological secrets. You're not being punished. You're being purified. This lunation doesn't want to control you — it wants you to remember what's yours. Reclaim your energy. Release the shame. Reframe the narrative. You don't owe anybody a performance of composure. Let the rupture make room for rebirth. Your partnerships are under divine review. With the New Moon in your 7th House — and Mercury Retrograde parked there, too — relationships may feel like a hall of mirrors. You might feel like you're being studied instead of loved. Like you're being managed instead of met. But connection is not choreography. You don't have to over-explain your boundaries or shrink your autonomy to maintain peace. This lunation is about choosing union without erasure. It's about being known and free. If someone can't hold both, they might not be the one holding you next. You don't have to disappear to be of service. This New Moon lands in your 6th House of routine, wellness, and work — and with Mercury Retrograde here, your body and schedule are sounding alarms. The pressure to prove your usefulness is not the same thing as being valuable. You don't owe your energy to every inbox, every role, every silent expectation. Real devotion is sustainable. Real care includes you. Let this lunation invite you to rest not as rebellion — but as ritual. You're not behind. You're just healing in public.

Your horoscope for the New Moon on 25th June is urging you to practice forgiveness
New Moons are a time for rejuvenation and manifestation. If you have a lack in your life, then this is the time the collective will work to fill it, whether through a new experience, person, or item. We must make space for beginnings and foolish behaviour during new moons. Mind you, we're all fools when beginning something new, so don't be scared to get experimental. For newbies, a New Moon is when the moon conjuncts the sun to the same degree. New Moons are for setting intentions and goals to manifest. Take the theme of each new moon (manifestation period) as inspiration to bring forth the best version of yourself! If you find your horoscope helpful or have any questions, please share your horoscope and tag me on social media @monishaholmes. June's New Moon in Cancer occurs on 25th June, 2025, and this time, it's not just the Moon whispering to us. Jupiter, the planet of wisdom, expansion, and grace, has entered Cancer for the first time in over a decade. This isn't just any new moon. This is a spiritual rebirth coded into ancestral memory. Jupiter in Cancer doesn't just bless — it remembers. And in doing so, it asks us to rewrite what was handed down too soon, too rigidly, or too painfully. Here's the truth: many of us were taught to nurture others before ever being taught how to nurture ourselves. We were handed scripts — how to smile softly through heartbreak, how to say yes when we meant no, how to make ourselves digestible even when we were starving for our own wholeness. Somewhere along the way, grace became confused with self-abandonment, and elegance with silence. We were told that to be good women, we must be good mothers to everyone — except ourselves. But what if that script was never written with our spiritual evolution in mind? This New Moon is not asking you to run away from home; it's asking you to create one within. One that shelters your dreams, your voice, and your inner child. It's time to re-mother yourself — with boundaries, with tenderness, and with truth. Find your Ground. Reclaim rituals that make you feel safe, nourished, and held. Bake yourself a dozen of your favourite cookies. Be bad at playing an instrument, and mother yourself becoming good at your gifts. Take a long shower. Go on a field trip to your favourite museum. Buy yourself that plush keepsake. Say no. Even to people you love — when your body contracts in their presence. You might be saying no to the person that expanded you because you were taught to be ashamed of your growth. Some people can only be as content with you as they are with themselves, and will speak you away from living life's fullness. This may be unintentional, might speak to a lack of alignment, and is ultimately up to you to discern. Sometimes, saying 'I don't know' or 'not at this time' is a proper response to a forced outcome. Reclaim your narrative. Call back the parts of yourself you've exiled in the name of being 'nice.' You need to be a self-affirmed human. Calling back the exiled parts of yourself mean owning up to your shame, and choosing to be accountable for your healing. Practice forgiveness. But only if you're ready. Forgiveness is not a requirement for freedom. Mamas, girlies, and gays, if you are holding a harshness within yourself please work with this New Moon to commit to accept softness. This New Moon wants to teach you how to stop outsourcing your worth and start coming home to your own spirit. Let the tides of the cosmos pull you inward. Let the winds of the world soften the walls around your heart. And when you rise like light again, let yourself be your own sanctuary. Your biggest task right now is to get through to yourself. You're so used to solving things alone that you've internalised neglect as normal. Just because you've adapted to an unmet need doesn't mean you should continue to tolerate it. This New Moon is here to help you re-establish basic self-care, not as a checklist but as a spiritual practice. Start by creating a cozy, safe environment — your body, your home, your mind. Softness isn't weakness, Aries. It's wisdom. And giving yourself what you never had doesn't make you needy. It makes you whole. Teaching yourself tenderness means unlearning how harsh your inner voice has become. You've been resilient for so long that toughness has become your armour — but now it's weighing you down. This New Moon invites you to treat your thoughts like a garden. Pull out what no longer serves you. Plant kinder words. Nourish your nervous system with slowness, beauty, and deliberate care. You are allowed to be soft. You are allowed to rest. Mindfulness isn't a luxury — it's a tool for survival. It's time to save yourself with softness, not stoicism. This New Moon asks you to define what safety means to you. You've been trying to find security in people, ideas, and new goals — but emotional grounding begins within. You might feel sensitive about finances or your body, but those triggers are guiding you back to what matters. It's time to retreat into the rituals that nourish you. Don't be afraid to pull away from surface-level chatter and go deeper into your own voice. Your peace is sacred. Make decisions from that space, not from the need to be everything to everyone. Happy Birthday, sweet Cancer. This New Moon is not just about beginnings — it's about remembering who you are underneath all the roles you've been asked to play. Jupiter is expanding your self-understanding, showing you just how much wisdom you carry from surviving what others never knew about. You've been growing, healing, and becoming —and now it's time to be seen in your fullness. Don't shrink back into old comfort zones. You are allowed to take up space. Nourish the version of you that no longer needs to be rescued. Let your softness lead the way. You finally see clearly. After years of denying your own depth in order to shine for others, your inner world is now louder than the applause. This New Moon calls you to step behind the curtain and reconnect with your true self. Your influence doesn't come from being on display — it comes from being intentional. Your insights deserve to be shared, but don't perform your wisdom. Let it drip from a place of presence, not persona. Leadership begins with self-trust. Let your presence be your power. Let go of the belief that love must be earned through labor. This New Moon asks you to redefine what it means to be helpful. Your worth is not measured by how much you produce or how many fires you put out. You've done enough. Now it's time to let yourself be held, even if only by your own arms. Call in community that values your heart, not just your hands. Rest is not a reward — it's a right. This is your moment to receive what you so often give away. Your career is taking shape, but not without some growing pains. You've been showing up for your professional self while quietly wondering if your personal relationships will survive the ride. They can — if you stay rooted in your truth. Don't abandon your needs just to make peace. You can hold your boundaries and still love deeply. This New Moon gives you a chance to re-evaluate how you balance ambition and affection. Let your emotional clarity guide your next step, not your fear of losing connection. This New Moon illuminates your inner search for meaning. You've been carrying silent truths and now they're ready to be integrated. Don't rush to share everything—sometimes the power is in holding your wisdom close until it fully ripens. You are transforming, and this time, it's not about survival. It's about truth. Deepen your studies, your spiritual path, or your private thoughts. Let this be a time of sacred internal growth. When you do speak again, your words will carry weight, magic, and healing. You're not as detached as you pretend to be. This New Moon exposes your deeper emotional needs — especially around intimacy, trust, and belonging. Let yourself feel what's coming up without trying to escape it. Emotional vulnerability doesn't make you weak; it makes you real. You're preparing for a creative rebirth, but it requires you to get honest about your fears. What do you avoid in the name of freedom? What would happen if you stayed and felt it? Stay. Feel. Heal. The world can wait while you come home to yourself. This New Moon highlights your relationships, but not in a romanticised way. It's showing you the work — the effort it takes to build connection, the courage it takes to stay open, and the self-respect required to walk away when your needs aren't met. You've grown past people-pleasing. Now you want something real, mutual, sacred. That starts with honesty —with yourself and with others. Let this lunation clarify what kind of love you're available for. And more importantly, what kind you're not. You're being asked to take better care of your human side. The part of you that aches, that gets tired, that wants more order and less chaos. You often live in your head, but this New Moon is asking you to ground your energy into rituals of restoration. You don't need a total life overhaul—just a willingness to start small. Declutter your space. Nourish your body. Reconnect to purpose through daily rhythms. The more you tend to the now, the clearer your long-term vision will become. This New Moon is a healing balm for your creativity and your heart. You've been giving a lot emotionally, and now it's time to pour some of that tenderness back into yourself. Let art, poetry, and play be your medicine. Your relationships are stable, even if they feel quiet. That stillness isn't rejection — it's reflection. Take this time to re-align with what brings you joy, not just comfort. You're ready to express yourself more fully. Your magic returns when you stop performing and start creating from your soul.

New Moon in Cancer Horoscope for Each Sign
New Moons are a time for rejuvenation and manifestation. If you have a lack in your life, then this is the time the collective will work to fill it, whether through a new experience, person, or item. We must make space for beginnings and foolish behavior during new moons. Mind you, we're all fools when beginning something new, so don't be scared to get experimental. For newbies, a New Moon is when the moon conjuncts the sun to the same degree. New moons are for setting intentions and goals to manifest. Take the theme of each new moon (manifestation period) as inspiration to bring forth the best version of yourself!

But what if that script was never written with our spiritual evolution in mind? This New Moon is not asking you to run away from home; it's asking you to create one within. One that shelters your dreams, your voice, and your inner child. It's time to re-mother yourself—with boundaries, with tenderness, and with truth. Find your Ground. Reclaim rituals that make you feel safe, nourished, and held. Bake yourself a dozen of your favorite cookies. Be bad at playing an instrument, and mother yourself becoming good at your gifts. Take a long shower. Go on a field trip to your favorite museum. Buy yourself that plush keepsake. Say no. Even to people you love—when your body contracts in their presence. You might be saying no to the person that expanded you because you were taught to be ashamed of your growth. Some people can only be as content with you as they are with themselves, and will speak you away from living life's fullness. This may be unintentional, might speak to a lack of alignment, and is ultimately up to you to discern. Sometimes, saying 'I don't know' or 'not at this time' is a proper response to a forced outcome. Reclaim your narrative. Call back the parts of yourself you've exiled in the name of being 'nice.' You need to be a self-affirmed human. Calling back the exiled parts of yourself mean owning up to your shame, and choosing to be accountable for your healing. Practice forgiveness. But only if you're ready. Forgiveness is not a requirement for freedom. Mamas, girlies, and gays, if you are holding a harshness within yourself please work with this New Moon to commit to accept softness. This New Moon wants to teach you how to stop outsourcing your worth and start coming home to your own spirit. Let the tides of the cosmos pull you inward. Let the winds of the world soften the walls around your heart. And when you rise like light again, let yourself be your own sanctuary. Your biggest task right now is to get through to yourself. You're so used to solving things alone that you've internalized neglect as normal. Just because you've adapted to an unmet need doesn't mean you should continue to tolerate it. This New Moon is here to help you re-establish basic self-care, not as a checklist but as a spiritual practice. Start by creating a cozy, safe environment—your body, your home, your mind. Softness isn't weakness, Aries. It's wisdom. And giving yourself what you never had doesn't make you needy. It makes you whole. Teaching yourself tenderness means unlearning how harsh your inner voice has become. You've been resilient for so long that toughness has become your armor—but now it's weighing you down. This New Moon invites you to treat your thoughts like a garden. Pull out what no longer serves you. Plant kinder words. Nourish your nervous system with slowness, beauty, and deliberate care. You are allowed to be soft. You are allowed to rest. Mindfulness isn't a luxury—it's a tool for survival. It's time to save yourself with softness, not stoicism. This New Moon asks you to define what safety means to you. You've been trying to find security in people, ideas, and new goals—but emotional grounding begins within. You might feel sensitive about finances or your body, but those triggers are guiding you back to what matters. It's time to retreat into the rituals that nourish you. Don't be afraid to pull away from surface-level chatter and go deeper into your own voice. Your peace is sacred. Make decisions from that space, not from the need to be everything to everyone. Happy Birthday, sweet Cancer. This New Moon is not just about beginnings—it's about remembering who you are underneath all the roles you've been asked to play. Jupiter is expanding your self-understanding, showing you just how much wisdom you carry from surviving what others never knew about. You've been growing, healing, and becoming—and now it's time to be seen in your fullness. Don't shrink back into old comfort zones. You are allowed to take up space. Nourish the version of you that no longer needs to be rescued. Let your softness lead the way. You finally see clearly. After years of denying your own depth in order to shine for others, your inner world is now louder than the applause. This New Moon calls you to step behind the curtain and reconnect with your true self. Your influence doesn't come from being on display—it comes from being intentional. Your insights deserve to be shared, but don't perform your wisdom. Let it drip from a place of presence, not persona. Leadership begins with self-trust. Let your presence be your power. Let go of the belief that love must be earned through labor. This New Moon asks you to redefine what it means to be helpful. Your worth is not measured by how much you produce or how many fires you put out. You've done enough. Now it's time to let yourself be held, even if only by your own arms. Call in community that values your heart, not just your hands. Rest is not a reward—it's a right. This is your moment to receive what you so often give away. Your career is taking shape, but not without some growing pains. You've been showing up for your professional self while quietly wondering if your personal relationships will survive the ride. They can—if you stay rooted in your truth. Don't abandon your needs just to make peace. You can hold your boundaries and still love deeply. This New Moon gives you a chance to re-evaluate how you balance ambition and affection. Let your emotional clarity guide your next step, not your fear of losing connection. This New Moon illuminates your inner search for meaning. You've been carrying silent truths and now they're ready to be integrated. Don't rush to share everything—sometimes the power is in holding your wisdom close until it fully ripens. You are transforming, and this time, it's not about survival. It's about truth. Deepen your studies, your spiritual path, or your private thoughts. Let this be a time of sacred internal growth. When you do speak again, your words will carry weight, magic, and healing. You're not as detached as you pretend to be. This New Moon exposes your deeper emotional needs—especially around intimacy, trust, and belonging. Let yourself feel what's coming up without trying to escape it. Emotional vulnerability doesn't make you weak; it makes you real. You're preparing for a creative rebirth, but it requires you to get honest about your fears. What do you avoid in the name of freedom? What would happen if you stayed and felt it? Stay. Feel. Heal. The world can wait while you come home to yourself. This New Moon highlights your relationships, but not in a romanticized way. It's showing you the work—the effort it takes to build connection, the courage it takes to stay open, and the self-respect required to walk away when your needs aren't met. You've grown past people-pleasing. Now you want something real, mutual, sacred. That starts with honesty—with yourself and with others. Let this lunation clarify what kind of love you're available for. And more importantly, what kind you're not. You're being asked to take better care of your human side. The part of you that aches, that gets tired, that wants more order and less chaos. You often live in your head, but this New Moon is asking you to ground your energy into rituals of restoration. You don't need a total life overhaul—just a willingness to start small. Declutter your space. Nourish your body. Reconnect to purpose through daily rhythms. The more you tend to the now, the clearer your long-term vision will become. This New Moon is a healing balm for your creativity and your heart. You've been giving a lot emotionally, and now it's time to pour some of that tenderness back into yourself. Let art, poetry, and play be your medicine. Your relationships are stable, even if they feel quiet. That stillness isn't rejection—it's reflection. Take this time to re-align with what brings you joy, not just comfort. You're ready to express yourself more fully. Your magic returns when you stop performing and start creating from your soul.

The New Moon in Gemini Miiight Have You Jumping to A Lot of Conclusions
New Moons are a time for rejuvenation and manifestation. If you have a lack in your life, then this is the time the collective will work to fill it, whether through a new experience, person, or item. We must make space for beginnings and foolish behavior during new moons. Mind you, we're all fools when beginning something new, so don't be scared to get experimental. For newbies, a New Moon is when the moon conjuncts the sun to the same degree. New moons are for setting intentions and goals to manifest. Take the theme of each new moon (manifestation period) as inspiration to bring forth the best version of yourself! If you find your horoscope helpful or have any questions, please share your horoscope and tag me on social media @monishaholmes. The New Moon in Gemini, which takes place on May 26, 2025, at 11:01 p.m. EST, is all about recognizing the danger of jumping to conclusions before you have the whole picture. Imagine this: You read one textbook paragraph and suddenly believe you've unlocked the secret to life. You overhear a fragment of gossip and start drawing bold, confident conclusions. Welcome to Gemini season. This Air sign loves ideas, conversations, and information—but not necessarily complete information. And under this lunation, there's a high chance that many of us will fall into the trap of thinking we know it all…when we do not. During this New Moon in Gemini, there are five considerations to remember: Our brains are designed to fill in the blanks, but sometimes that can work against us. Psychologists call these mental mishaps "cognitive distortions," which are basically unhelpful thought patterns like black-and-white thinking, catastrophizing, or assuming the worst without evidence. Under this New Moon, you might be reading too far into a text, overthinking a tone of voice, or assuming someone is mad at you when they're distracted. The assignment? Don't consider your assumptions facts. Gemini energy is fast-moving and mentally stimulating, but is not always thorough. You might receive a powerful message, idea, or revelation, and immediately want to act on it. But the truth is, you may have only part of the story. Be mindful of the temptation to run with a sliver of it. Don't skip to the book's conclusion by proceeding towards triumph without reading all the chapters (yes, including the glossary). Gemini is associated with the trickster—an archetype that thrives in duality, nuance, and contradiction. This doesn't mean people are lying to you, it just means that reality may be more layered than it seems. What looks like a contradiction might be two truths coexisting. Instead of calling it deception, consider the possibility that complexity is part of the truth. Rather than reacting, get curious. Ask more questions. Stay open. Be willing to admit, 'I don't know yet.' That mindset will protect you from misunderstandings, misinformation, and unnecessary drama. This New Moon rewards those who pause to investigate rather than those who rush to solve. Assume less. Listen more. Clarity will come—but only to those who are patient enough to receive it. With several planets soon moving into Aries, the urge to 'figure it out now' might feel overwhelming. But manifesting under this New Moon means surrendering your need to know everything. You don't need to decide, conclude, or define just yet. The plot is still thickening. Let it. Trust that truth reveals itself in time, not under pressure. Below, read your horoscope based on your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. Read for your Sun sign to gain insight based on the version of yourself you're maturing into, your Rising sign to reflect on your present state, and your Moon sign for guidance on caring for your inner child. Whew, Aries. Girl, y'all know you're only at the beginning of a new journey, right? Saturn, the planet of growth, has entered your energetic orbit and is slowly guiding you toward long-term triumph. That means you'll be working closely with Saturnian energy between now and April 14, 2028 (lol, enjoy that). In three years, you'll be basking in the rewards of your spiritual breakthrough! This New Moon is the official kick-off, teaching you new ways to communicate and express yourself. Look up, babe—you're growing. The constellations make it seem like you've got a lot on your mind, Taurus. The best thing you can do for yourself is keep a journal. Set your inner critic to the side and let whatever floats to the top of your mind spill onto the page. Daydreams, fears, hopes, or even random sounds—write it all. These brain dumps will act as a mirror to help you meet the version of you who can bring you peace. This New Moon is testing your values. Stand ten toes down in what you believe—unless you're handed evidence that it's time to evolve. How does it feel being the belle of the ball, Gemini? You're nearing the end of a long chapter in self-discovery. Just when you think you've flipped every rock and turned every page, you'll be invited to look at it all again—but from a different angle. Moving from a 'me-first' approach into a more collaborative and other-centered mindset is your next step. For now, soak up the spotlight. Soon enough, you'll step gracefully into a more supportive role—and it will suit you beautifully. Try as you might to compartmentalize or dismiss your instincts, your sixth sense always finds a way to speak. During the New Moon in Gemini, you'll finally see a situation clearly—maybe one you've been trying to delulu your way out of. But guess what? That's not a bad thing. Honesty brings healing, and you'll feel stronger for facing the truth head-on. Now that the rose-colored glasses are off, you can move with precision and power. Keep your chin up, Leo—Pride Rock awaits. There may be a few important (and possibly humbling) health lessons coming your way. If you've been avoiding a doctor's appointment or ignoring your wellness app, now's the time to follow through. This New Moon has major blessings to offer, but they'll require your full energy. And that means learning to rest when your body asks. Somatic self-care isn't a punishment—it's part of your three-year glow-up journey. Time to come out of the cave, Virgo. As much as you love your hermit era, every retreat needs a return. You can't escape the world if you never re-enter it. This New Moon is guiding you back towards deep connection—especially in ways that can elevate your career. The relationships you build now may shape your professional path for years to come. So dust yourself off, step into the sun, and know that you're supported as you reconnect. What could you learn from a quick getaway outside your area code? The May 26 New Moon is inviting you to explore—literally. Whether it's a road trip, flight, train ride, or even a bike adventure, movement is your magic. Just pick a direction and go. You'll find a spark of inspiration hiding in unfamiliar places. Trust your wanderlust. When in doubt, lead with curiosity and play. Oh, Scorpio. For someone who thrives in the depths, you might feel a little boxed in under this Gemini New Moon. Home transformations are taking up your energy, which makes being seen feel risky. But don't retreat just yet—this is your cue to let someone into your space and soften your grip on control. Let go of the script. Let people surprise you. You'll find joy in the spontaneity that follows. Partnerships are evolving in unexpected ways, Sag. Don't panic—this is a good thing. You're learning that real connection often comes after chaos, detours, and a few comedic errors. Be brave. Speak your truth. The people meant for you will stick around for the full ride. Take up space unapologetically—you deserve relationships that feel like home, not a performance. Bring your whole self. That's how you call in what's meant for you. Take it easy, gym warrior. You've been grinding, and the Gemini New Moon wants you to switch up your pace. If you're all about high-intensity workouts, try something slower. If you've been dragging, maybe it's time to add a little fire. Opposite Day-style self-care is your best bet. Surprise your body. Refresh your routine. You'll thank yourself later. And if you're feeling confused about what you need? Ask your body—it always knows. Yum, Aquarius. This New Moon wants you to enjoy yourself. Think: pleasure, curiosity, lighthearted chaos. Channel the energy of a flirtatious dolphin—yes, really—and give yourself permission to break the rules. Kiss someone unexpected. Ghost them playfully. Make mischief without strings. The world is your buffet—try everything. Life doesn't always need to be a mission. Let fun be the purpose for once. Is there ever really an end to home improvement, Pisces? Probably not—but that's what makes it beautiful. Your space is an extension of your soul, and this New Moon is asking you to bring it back to life. Whether it's popcorn-shaped candle holders or circus-core decor (you heard me), it's time to play. Not sure where to begin? Make a list of things that make you smile, then find ways to incorporate more of that into your home. The weird stuff belongs. So do you.
