New moons always herald new beginnings, and when both the Sun and Moon meet in sensitive, cardinal Cancer, their energies are amplified. Cancer, ruled by the Moon itself, is known for its nurturing, inward-looking, and emotionally intelligent nature. Cancer’s archetype is the crab—a tender core shielded by a protective shell, teaching us the power of intuitive boundaries.
What's especially remarkable this year is Jupiter’s presence in Cancer, beginning a year-long journey (June 2025–June 2026). Jupiter, the planet of luck, expansion and higher consciousness, is exalted in Cancer. This powerful alignment infuses the lunar cycle with an “all-encompassing recipe for expansion”—expansion anchored in intuitive emotional intelligence and the merging of ego with soul, and the 3D physical world with the 5D energetic world.
The Finger of Fate: A Yod Activation
Layered atop this fortune-filled new moon is an exceptionally rare and impactful configuration: a Yod, or the “Finger of God.” At the apex of this Yod stands Pluto in Aquarius, with the Sun, Moon, Jupiter, and Mars forming its base.
A Yod often signals a significant turning point or crisis that catalyzes deep transformation. Here, the energetic flows between emotional intelligence (Sun, Moon, Jupiter) and action (Mars) are channeled—sometimes uncomfortably—through Pluto’s domain of death and rebirth. Pluto’s presence as the apex planet supercharges the transformational potential, making adjustments inevitable, karmically guided, and ultimately for the collective good.
Lisa emphasizes, “the outer planets always win.” Even if we don’t notice drastic events in our day-to-day 3D world, we are invited to trust the slow, subtle, yet profound energetic shifts.
Integrating the Energies: Intuitive Action and Centered Communication
Additional aspects offer practical guidance for navigating these heady times. Mercury conjoins the fixed star Procyon, bringing mental agility and adaptability, but also potential for conflict. The remedy, according to the cosmic counsel, is to remain anchored in one’s center—acting and communicating from the heart, in alignment with our inner knowing, rather than from reactivity.
Further, a grand web of harmonious aspects between Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn amplifies the undercurrent of transformation with grace, flow, and further fortuitous outcomes—especially over the long term.
The overarching message is to attune ourselves to these subtle energetic flows. Now is the time to trust, listen, and feel from the inside out. It’s both permission and invitation to heed intuition, opening the heart and third eye as our most potent tools for expansion.
Embodying the Shift: Meditation and Conscious ReceivingTo help integrate these potent energies, Lisa guides listeners through a centering meditation: awareness to the breath, the body, and the energy field, inviting breath as a vehicle to release what doesn’t serve and to receive new cosmic light. She encourages a conscious expansion from the “seat of your soul” outward, merging your inner essence with your energetic field. This, she offers, is the path to activating the intuitive, open-hearted, centered self needed in these transformational times.
As you breathe in the new lunar energies, you’re not simply resetting for a new cycle—you’re activating capacities that uplift not only yourself but ripple out for collective benefit.
Embrace Your Role in the Greater Energetic WeaveWhether you’re new to astrology or a seasoned energy reader, this Cancer new moon invites you to align with your heart and intuition, step into conscious expansion, and remember your essential role in the web of collective transformation. Trust the process, stay centered, and know—you are a channel for light, intuition, and destiny’s unfolding.
