June 25th New Moon Increases Inner Peace

The high-octane activity of the first half of June shifts into calmer aspects on June 25.

Astrologically, June is a busy month. It brings big changes that make us turn inward, check in with our emotions, and open the door to healing and fresh starts.

This year, Cancer becomes the stronger force, taking over from Gemini. Three major planets move into Cancer, shifting the focus from fast thinking to deep feelings and inner care.

On June 9, Mercury entered Cancer. On the same day, Jupiter also entered Cancer. On June 20, the Sun joins them in Cancer. These placements form tense angles (called squares) to Saturn and Neptune in Aries. This can stir up confusion, doubt, and emotional struggles—some of which may not be as real as they seem.

The Cancer Shift: Feeling More, Thinking Less

Gemini season brings ideas, speed, and curiosity. But by the middle of the month, Mercury, Jupiter, and the Sun all move into Cancer. This shifts the energy toward emotion and imagination, which can overpower logic and action.

Cancer energy is caring and wise—but also very sensitive. When it mixes with pressure from Saturn (rules, limits) and Neptune (dreams, illusions), emotions can feel extra heavy.

Little problems may suddenly feel huge. But many of the blocks you feel now are coming from inside—not outside.

The message here? Stay steady. Be honest about what’s real and what isn’t. Don’t let strong emotions shape a false view of your life.

Lunar Support: A Break in the Clouds

Luckily, a helpful moon phase is coming. The Cancer New Moon arrives on June 25. This moon marks a fresh chapter and brings lighter energy, thanks to several positive connections:

• Sun conjunct Jupiter – brings hope and big-picture thinking

• Sun sextile Mars – adds energy and courage

• Mercury sextile Uranus – brings sudden insight

• Mercury trine Saturn & Neptune – offers peace, focus, and long-term vision

Things start to clear. You may feel stronger, more motivated, and better able to handle life again.

This New Moon is great for self-care, journaling, and setting kind goals. It’s a time to slow down, tune into your heart, and begin again.

The second half of June brings a wave of calm. As the good aspects build, you’ll likely feel more inspired, focused, and in control of your emotions.

Tips for June:

• Take a breath before believing every feeling. Emotions are real, but not always true.

• Don’t rush answers. Let things clear on their own after June 20.

• Use the Full Moon and New Moon as your reset points.

• Keep things balanced: rest and action, emotion and reason, dreams and facts.

Not all stress is bad. Sometimes, it’s just a sign that it’s time to change, grow, or let go of something old.

This is a month to feel deeply—but also to pause and reset. Let your emotions flow—but don’t let them wash away your path.

May the stars guide your way,
