Cancer New Moon Horoscope
Tonight, we have the New Moon in Cancer taking place at 10:52 pm EST. This New Moon in Cancer brings up a fresh start and new experiences in regard to home, family, safety, caretaking, and emotional health. This New Moon forms a square to Jupiter and in conjunction with Lilith. The square from Jupiter in Aries during this new moon makes us aware of the ways in which we have grown beyond where we come from and how our history and learned traditions no longer inspire our faith. It’s for us to create something new for ourselves based on the morals, faith, wisdom, and education we have received from our own life experiences and intentional exploration. Lilith conjunct this new moon in Cancer brings rebellious energy that feels the need to protect what we deem sacred, sentimental, and close to us. Lilith conjunct the New Moon also makes us aware of the shadow side of our home, origins, and family. This could be part of what propels us toward rebellion and strengthening our belief in what we learned away from home.
As we realize that where we come from isn’t a perfect place, we do not have to judge ourselves as products of imperfection. We must realize that we don’t have to conflate our being with the place we come from. Yet as we realize that the place or people we love and used to find no flaw in does indeed have a dark side, it prompts us to accept that side of ourselves as well. We embrace a newfound emotional strength as we allow ourselves to integrate our shadow with our light, as our shadow side is an untapped well of strength and potential when we open ourselves up to it. Lilith’s conjunction with the New Moon inspires us to be our most authentic selves, shadow and shamed parts included, without fear of punishment. It is our liberation from the judgment or shame from our family, whether still occurring in reality or ever-present in the mind, that allows us to enjoy this new freedom of self-expression.
Lilith is associated with sexual liberation, dark femininity, and reclaiming of power after being shunned or exiled. We might feel as though the change within our home situation or family dynamic is scary at first because it can take a minute before the grief makes way to feelings of freedom. This is a time to reclaim the power in your body whether it be through the liberation of sexuality or seeing the value in your body as a home, as a place where you are protected. We are taking better care of ourselves by protecting ourselves. We understand self-care as far as tending to our physical and emotional needs, but self-care is also protecting your energy, setting boundaries, and not allowing people to drain you. Some boundaries are sure to be set at this time. We are leaning into our softness and simultaneously our fierceness. We are caring and giving, but thanks to Lilith we also know how to leave or take action when the energy tip towards imbalance, inequality, or injustice.
This new understanding of protection and self-preservation also extends to protection from ourselves. Protection from our learned and inherited techniques of self-sabotage, rejection, and denial. We must address and actually stand up against the things we don’t want to accept anymore. This moon cycle between the Cancer New Moon and Capricorn Full Moon might not feel very gentle. Part of protecting ourselves from endangering ourselves is actually having to be honest about the ways we contribute to our own feelings of failure and suffering. Sometimes in this process, we have to be stern and almost brutal with ourselves for us to acknowledge the damage we’ve done and actually stop ourselves from taking it any further. I actually really appreciate Jupiter’s square here because although it’s a square and we’re being handed this reality check, Jupiter’s influence as a benefic still makes it so that it is not so harsh and we really do see a great reward for it after the fact. Jupiter in Aries is really about acting on faith. Belief is about behavior. It’s one thing to declare your beliefs about abundance, love, your power, success, and your faith it’s another thing to really walk in that. This new moon is here to inspire us to walk in, feel through, and protect this belief of ours.
As we continue to take risks and find ourselves far from our usual place of comfort it is important that we keep our wits about ourselves. We don’t have to deny or feel shame about our history and place of origin now that we know deeper truths about it. This New Moon in Lilith gives us the opportunity to let us be reborn and delivered from the perceived “errors” of our past into a version of ourselves that can no longer be weakened by shame nor repress one’s own power for the comfort of others. We are allowed to comfortably walk in our power and confidently take the risks that we didn’t think we could afford because of where we come from. It could be most important now to come to terms with the fact that you can’t go back to your ignorance nor to your ideals of comfort nor to the role of playing it weak. It’s a rebirth into being so true to ourselves that we are willing to sacrifice our comfort and the convenience we are to others in order to live courageously in our truth and align our being with our beliefs.
When it comes to the setting intentions for this moon it should be related to emotional protection, liberation, and power. I would recommend speaking life into the water that you drink. If you are on your period at this time I would highly suggest becoming one with your blood whether through making a face mask, writing your intentions in the blood, creating a bath with the blood, meditating while visualizing the flow of your menstrual, or whatever makes you feel more in tune with your sacral center. Lilith is related to the “wild woman” archetype and primitive behaviors, let us lean into our wildness. Sometimes you need to walk away from where you come from to shed domestication and indoctrination to get back in touch with your liberated, wild, uncensored, uncontainable side. It’s giving unleash the beast. We’ll be better for it. Forget your chains so that you can test your new wings.

Be honest about what these goals, these connections, this community, or this project means to you. Don’t lose out on being a part of the growth of something greater than you because you aren’t intimidated by the intimacy this kind of community requires.

You have no responsibility to people who are just on-lookers of your life. Practice your freedom to make decisions for yourself. You are in control of your path and you get to choose your position in life, whether this be your profession, how you show up in relationships, your politics, and how much you allow others to know about you. It’s okay to pull back and become more private with your affairs if that helps you to feel more in control. An audience cannot be your master. You control your own narratives. Right now, close relationships in your life help to give you a different vantage point of your reputation and path. The observations of trusted peers and partners can help you to feel more aware and in control of your trajectory, but know the difference between an observer and an overseer. You get the final say about your life decisions. You are free from the molds that have been set out for you. What will you make of your freedom?

Jupiter in the 6th house is about incorporating faith and belief into your daily routine. This could be a new start that includes validating your own emotions and protecting your optimism from the cruelty of the world. You don’t have to give in to groupthink just because the majority have signed up to believe in it and claim it as their truth. Laws are formed from collective agreeance. Sometimes when we rewrite our own code of conduct we find ourselves to be outlaws of society’s laws. That’s okay, stand tall in that. It’s not your job to convince anyone else to believe what or how you believe and someone denouncing your beliefs shouldn’t be enough to make you walk away from your own. Allow the consistent daily practice of your faith to help to strengthen your optimism. Open your mind so that mundane moments can become practice and dynamic learning opportunities for you.

You are realizing and opening up to the ways in which sex and intimacy require deeper healing and more work from you. I applaud you for the work you have already done while reminding you there is more to do. You are being invited to become more comfortable with all the secret parts of yourself that you have been avoiding. You are invited to revisit past versions of yourself to see how you can draw on their wisdom and power to finally transform into a version of you that actually includes every version of you. You have finally come to terms with the outcome of past relationships, and although you can’t change them you can evolve so that you don’t have to repeat similar situations. Challenge your views on dating, closeness, intimacy, and sex. See the ways in which you have chosen shallow living in relation to these topics, as opportunities come up to go deeper do not shy away. On the other side of the fear of intimacy are pleasure, magic, and combined forces to create greater power. Yet you have to be comfortable with your own power in order to contribute to such a bond.

You could be starting a new relationship or starting a new chapter in one of your relationships. If you want this one to be better than the last it’s important that you move with intention and are honest about your needs upfront. You might be adopting new terms of agreement in your partnerships, whether that be platonic, romantic, or business. Make sure everyone is clear about what they’re agreeing to and that you are clear about what you need and expect from them. Be receptive to what others state their needs to be and make sure that you actually feel equipped to take care of those needs. Lilith’s placement demands respect, autonomy, and equality in this relationship avoid future feelings of betrayal and wasted time by confronting red flags or dismissal of your demands as they come up. Aries Jupiter in the 4th house square to the Moon and Lilith in the 4th house can reveal the disparity between what your past and upbringing have caused you to believe about safety in relationships and what it is in reality.

Allow your faith in your future to help you discover more care and feelings of empowerment in your current reality. This new moon calls you to become more dedicated to and invested in your own health and habits. Lean into the intuitive messages from your physical body as they call out to you. Care for yourself and your health as you would care for a friend, elder, or child. Be gentle yet stern with yourself as you build better habits of self-care. Watch how pouring into yourself strengthens your natural reserve of power. As you learn to be better to yourself the quality of your life improves and you can make an even more positive impact on your surrounding community. This New Moon/Lilith conjunction in the 6th house creates the potential for liberation via work or finding new job opportunities that feel more authentic, empowering, and serving of your emotional needs.

This new moon can birth to new creative ideas within you. You might feel more inclined to take better care to pleasure yourself and experience real joy. Right now, for you the best kind of self care is play, creativity, and intentional sexual pleasure. You are realizing the needs of your inner child for freedom to just let loose and have fun without worry. You could be opening your mind to realize that sex can be something that is done with care, even if it’s not out of love it doesn’t have to be based on superficial lust either. You’re understanding what pleasure truly is and taking the pressure off of yourself to feel pleasure in ways that haven’t felt authentic to you. You are allowed to protect and keep private the things that make you feel good, you don’t have to share the sacred aspects of your joy. Yet you don’t have to close other people out in order to protect your precious, its possible to section off certain areas of your life in order to grant access to more general areas while closing off what you want to keep for yourself. Jupiter’s square to the New Moon from its place in the 2nd house indicates tension between the belief in your personal values and what you consider to be pleasurable. So that you don’t get caught up in a cycle of shame rather than trying to cut off your “guilty” pleasures due to your faith, find a way to make your own morals more accepting of your pleasure. You don’t have to rob yourself of what you enjoy just because it’s not monetarily beneficial or in line with what your values have been thus far. This is your opportunity to expand your values and allow your own joy and pleasure to be a resource and an aid to you.
