The new moon in Cancer is happening at 12:57 am on the 6th of July 2024.
Whenever there is a new moon, it is a new beginning. And this new moon is happening with the
moon in its own sign, because Cancer is ruled by the moon. This means that the moon is
domicile, more commonly known as – ‘at home’ – where an energy of comfort, stability, and
ability to perform well is honed.
This is a time to slow down and connect with yourself, your intuition, and your body. Now is the
perfect time to set your intentions and what you want to achieve during this lunar cycle. As well
as begin something new and cleanse any stagnant or unwanted energies holding you back.
The moon dictates emotional tides and feelings in and out. The moon is in the second decan
that is associated with the 3 of Cups tarot card, which is also co-ruled by Mercury (the planet
that rules communication). This moon is focused on the celebration after connecting with
someone. A good open conversation and a coherent bond with another person. Therefore this
new moon shows an emotional new beginning as well as a conversational or social one where
we feel as if we belong around someone else.
The moon is conjunct with Venus in Cancer which shows even more social harmony. Trine to
Saturn and Neptune. Saturn’s placement allows for easy maturity and seriousness with what
you are doing. Neptune’s placement shows a lot of ease with spirituality/faith/overall emotional
fluidness.
