Welcome in the New Moon in Cancer on June 25, 2025

We can observe the phases of the moon with the naked eye, making them among the most fascinating astronomical behaviors. Astrology finds them to be deeply rich sources of thought and interpretation. Among the 9 phases – New, Waxing Crescent, 1st Quarter Half, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter Half, Waning Crescent, and Balsamic – the New and Full Moons capture most of the attention. This article will look at the current New Moon. It includes a “creation activity” associated with the sign of this New Moon in Cancer. The idea originates from Jan Spiller’s book: New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.

New Moon in Cancer – Let’s Start Something!

The Cancer New Moon will occur on June 25^th at 04 degrees and 07 minutes. In my Eastern Standard Time zone, it will happen at 6:31 am.

It takes 29.5 days from one New Moon to the next, spending approximately 2 and ½ days in a sign. Just before the New Moon begins, the 3 days of the previous moon phase is the Balsamic Moon. That period is ideal for meditating, reflecting, and releasing; all in preparation for the New Moon.

The first 12 to 24 hours after the New Moon begins is the best time to initiate energy. We will explore each New Moon using Jan Spiller’s suggested actions to take advantage of this period of inspiration.

The energy of the New Moon perfectly suits embarking on a first date, exploring novel experiences, and visiting uncharted places. It’s an opportunity that unfolds each month, inviting you to synchronize your actions with the fresh beginnings. Keeping track of the New Moon allows you to deliberately engage in something new. Take the time to initiate a project aligning with the Moon’s unique energies as it travels through different signs.

New Moon in Cancer

During the New Moon in Cancer, the focus turns inward, inviting us to nurture our foundations and strengthen our bonds. Cancer’s influence emphasizes safety, care, and intuitive connection, making this the perfect time to set intentions around family and self-care. This lunar phase encourages us to protect what we love, honor our feelings, and create a supportive inner world. Let this New Moon guide you to plant seeds of emotional resilience, heartfelt connection, and deep-rooted security.

This New Moon will occur at 04d07m of Cancer, making its Sabian symbol 5 Cancer. “An automobile wrecked by a train.” Marc Edmund Jones says, “This is a symbol of the irresistible power of completion inherent in the very make-up of man’s world whenever a sequence of events once is set in motion, as is evident continually on the objective side of things. Implicit in the reversed symbolism is the concept of control, or the assurance that it is not necessary to continue any given action to the point of self-cancellation. The ultimate obligation of the individual is to himself, and not to the narrow and momentary direction of circumstances.” The key word is: DISPERSION.

The Numbers of This New Moon

This New Moon happens on 6/25/2025, so the number is 22, a master number, which reduces to 4. The Cancer New Moon, illuminated by the energy of 22/4, invites you to build emotional stability through intuition and connection. Cancer’s nurturing influence supports deep inner work, helping you create strong foundations rooted in love, security, and emotional wisdom. With 22/4 guiding this lunar cycle, it’s a time to bring structure to your emotional world and manifest lasting support. Trust your instincts, nurture your dreams, and commit to creating a home that feels safe, grounded, and purposefully aligned.

The Major Arcana cards for the number 4 are The Emperor (4) and Death (13). They embody stability, transformation, and the balance between control and necessary change. The Emperor teaches the Fool the value of structure and the power of building a solid foundation. He offers security and order, establishing the framework for lasting success. Death then challenges the Fool to release what no longer serves, embracing transformation to create renewal. Together, they reveal the wisdom of both stability and evolution.

The New Moon occurs on the 25th of the month, which reduces to the number 7. This is the number of inner wisdom, spiritual reflection, and emotional insight. Paired with the intuitive and nurturing energy of Cancer, this lunar moment calls for deep introspection and meaningful connection. The 7 invites you to slow down, trust your inner voice, and seek truth beyond the surface. Cancer’s influence encourages emotional healing and the creation of safe, sacred spaces. Use this New Moon to retreat, reflect, and set intentions rooted in emotional authenticity and soulful alignment.

New Moon Wishing (A Tribute to Jan Spiller’s Work)

I deeply appreciate the practical applications of astrology. And one gem is Jan Spiller’s book, “New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.” Spiller emphasizes that wishing is not mere idle desire but a conscious act of responsibility. To harness this energy, you must be aware of the New Moon’s timing in your time zone. Once you know it, write your wishes within 24 hours after it becomes new.

Once the New Moon’s energy is underway, it’s essential to take pen to paper. Though digital options abound, handwriting your wishes and intentions is integral to the energy ritual. Spiller advises crafting 3 to 7 wishes, depending on the New Moon and your life circumstances at the time. Aligning your statements with the New Moon’s sign when you write your intentions adds an extra layer of potency.

Wishes/Intentions

Sit down somewhere you can be comfortable, get your favorite pen, and write your wishes/intentions. Wording is very important, and Spiller suggests starting each sentence with, “I wish/want …”.

During the New Moon in Cancer, consider the following wishes:

• I wish to nurture my emotional well-being and create a safe, loving environment for myself and others.
• I wish to release past emotional wounds and embrace healing, allowing deeper intimacy and connection in my relationships.
• I want to strengthen my ties with family and loved ones, fostering deeper bonds built on trust and understanding.
• I wish to align with my intuition, honoring my inner voice as a guide in all decisions.
• I want to cultivate a sense of emotional security and find fulfillment in my personal and professional life.

After jotting down your wishes, find a meaningful place for to keep them and revisit them periodically. Placing them in a journal or a special box by your bedside is a wonderful choice. Remember that the choice of paper and the pen you use play a role in this process. Being deliberate in every detail is key.

Happy New Moon Wishing!
