As the moon darkens and the sky turns inward, we are invited into the heart of the zodiac’s great nurturer: Cancer. The New Moon in Cancer on June 25 arrives as a soft, sacred breath — reminding us that beginnings don’t always need to be bold... sometimes, they’re quiet. Sometimes, they begin with rest.

Cancer, ruled by the Moon herself, invites us home — not just to our physical space, but to the inner sanctuary of our emotions, intuition, and truth. This is a moon to slow down, to reconnect, and to choose softness over striving.
