New Moon in Cancer Horoscopes
July’s New Moon is a turning point…
The tender Cancer New Moon on July 15, 2015, marks a turning point in our relationships, offering us an opportunity to clear the air of hidden emotions. Normally, the Cancer Moon is capable of locking up our feelings, but we won’t likely stay quiet with so much tension in the air. Cosmic bad-boys Mars and Pluto face off in a planetary tug-of-war, but we shouldn’t expect to see a winner until the dust settles.
Communication is charged with irrational passion as contentious Mercury and combative Mars form tense oppositions with tyrannical Pluto around this New Moon. People tend to say things without realizing how negative they sound. We may be bounced around on rough seas, but practicing patience enables us to conserve our energy for later. Determination is the best antidote when responding to the powerful currents during this New Moon.
Aries Horoscope (March 21 – April 19)
Although profound resistance to your plans can stop you in your tracks, don’t give up on a good idea just because someone tells you it has no merit. If you don’t understand why you are running into trouble, stop and listen carefully to the message of the Cancer New Moon as it floods your 4th House of Security. Obstacles are more easily handled once you accept that your current fear of change is unwarranted. Ironically, it’s less important to reach your destination than it is to fine-tune your plans. Safety comes first.
Taurus Horoscope (April 20 – May 20)
Although you probably have an overcrowded calendar while the Cancer New Moon rocks your 3rd House of Immediate Environment, it’s tough to shift into gear. At first, you’re tempted to get by with doing less, but your energy builds steam, enabling you to overcome anything that stands in your path once you find your pace. Just remember you’re not the only person with an ambitious agenda and intriguing ideas. Staying open to new information from a variety of sources can dramatically change your perspective and increase your options.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – June 20)
It’s all too easy to waste time running around in circles just trying to keep up with the hectic pace of events. But unless you slow down and reconnect with your core values, you may not feel satisfied with your objectives while the Cancer New Moon emphasizes your 2nd House of Self-Esteem. Proceed with caution; taking time for contemplation should not be thought of as a retreat. In fact, you could jeopardize your success if you continue to move too fast. Remember, reaching your goals is more like a marathon than a sprint.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – July 22)
The emotional New Moon in your sign is an early warning sign of an energetic shift that’s unfolding at home or within your family. You might choose to hide your head in the sand, only to be shocked by what happens. Or, perhaps you’re trying to co-create your future by living the change you seek. Start by creating a list of resolutions, as if it is New Year’s Day. Focusing your positive intentions during the New Moon plants significant seeds of thought in your fertile imagination.
Leo Horoscope (July 23 – Aug. 22)
The Cancer New Moon is a fresh start, but this new beginning falls in your 12th House of Endings, revealing an ironic blending of two cycles. However, starting a new phase prior to completing old business can be extremely problematic for everyone involved. Allow the current process to play out naturally or you might miss your chance to get the closure you need. Your best bet is to stay acutely aware of the complex interrelationship between what you are finishing and what you hope to do next. You can only embrace the future once you let go of the past.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
You may feel uncomfortably isolated while the moody Cancer New Moon shakes up your 11th House of Community. People that you can usually count on are nowhere to be found when you go searching for advice. You might react in anger or disappointment, thinking about all the times in the past you showed up for them. But don’t draw conclusions prematurely; give others the benefit of the doubt instead of assuming the worst. Thankfully, your real friends will come through in the nick of time and you will realize how lucky you are to have allies in your corner.
Libra Horoscope (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
You may feel pressured to make a career move as the Cancer New Moon highlights your 10th House of Career. But a relatively minor family crisis might add additional stress to your day, especially if you’re already involved in a disagreement. You won’t be happy if someone tries to take control of the situation now, but you should heed the practical advice, nonetheless. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater; be astute enough to show your ability to discern what’s useful from what is not.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Building emotional continuity in your life is an admirable goal, but it may come with a component of drama while the moody Cancer New Moon stirs up trouble in your 9th House of Big Ideas. You are passionate about your purpose in the world and enthusiastic about the direction for your future. But your drive can be so consuming now that you feel compelled to stand up for your beliefs. Tread lightly, for you could provoke a fight by resorting to aggressive behavior. Channel your intensity into physical activities; strenuous exercise is the remedy that will create the least damage and do the most good.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You might be confused about your evolving direction as the Cancer New Moon rattles your 8th House of Transformation, evoking a sense of discomfort by pushing you to explore feelings that you prefer to forget. Don’t belittle a friend’s melodrama by dismissing it as so trivial that you don’t have to get involved. Your willingness to partake in a meaningful dialogue may be exactly what’s required to take a relationship to a new level of intimacy.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
An overly emotional interaction with a friend or partner reveals that he or she has more to tell you than you previously thought. There may be a suppressed power issue lurking in the background as the Cancer New Moon occurs in your 7th House of Relationships. Unfortunately, direct confrontation could make matters worse. But letting the negativity linger isn’t the answer, either. The conversation will be awkward at first, but you can make real progress if you talk about your concerns without blaming anyone else. Take the high road and see who follows.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You aren’t necessarily aware of harboring any resentments about your job, but it’s not that simple to let go of an unresolved hurt. Fortunately, you have a pretty good grasp of the source of your current negativity if you are willing to be honest. The Cancer New Moon’s presence in your 6th House of Logistics gives you a clear picture of what you must do next. Be open to receiving emotional support from people who have your best interests at heart. Leaning on loved ones gives you the strength to process your feelings and get on with the real work at hand.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb. 19 – March 20)
You can finally stand and hold your ground after an extended period of uncertainty. But your feelings are more complex than they seem on the surface now that the cautious Cancer New Moon lands in your 5th House of Self-Expression. Don’t overcompensate with false bravado; there’s no logical justification for flaunting your victory. Nothing is gained by creating a competitive environment where others are threatened by your success. Softening your stance helps to relieve tension and return harmony back to your relationship world.
