The New Moon takes place in the evening on June 18th at 26 degrees Cancer.  The  Sun and Moon square Saturn @ 23 degrees Libra. This creates a serious but most likely, supportive situation, thanks to fact that Saturn is direct in the sign of it’s exaltation.  Look for connection between your family and Libra-ruled things like partners (romantic or business) and the social structure of our life.

As an example, my son’s best friend since 3rd grade, comes from a large Mexican family.  The frequently have parties and told my husband and I yesterday, that we’d be invited to these events from here on out because they consider us family. There is a jarring aspect here (the square) in that I don’t speak Spanish and they don’t speak English, but you can see how this mashes up.  Social (Libra) commitment (Saturn) supports the family (Sun and Moon in Cancer).

To take advantage of the New Moon, set an intention around shoring up (Saturn) your security (Cancer) using Libran principles. Things like fairness, reciprocity and good manners.

Where does the New Moon fall in your chart?  Can you see a way to increase your security via supporting others and getting along?

New moon in my second giving me a grand cross (natal vertex conj transiting Saturn in libra) Venus at 29 Aries.

The moon also trines my 29 scorp moon and my 28 Pisces vesta for a grandtrine

It’s always been hard for me to feel like I give enough at home if I’m giving enough at work. I’m hoping to see the time and effort I put in both places start to pay off. I value both afterall how I do at work increases $ (Venus) which increases what I can do WITH and FOR my children/home :)

New Moon/Sun will be in my 11th house, Saturn is conjunct my Mars in 2nd house. And, transiting Mars will be exactly conjunct my Sun on that day too. I’m pretty certain this has a lot to do with the situation at work. I’ve long felt my contribution to my work community isn’t quite appreciated. I doubt this will change, so I’m actually looking for other option, within the company (I didn’t have this problem in the department I used to work previously) or outside even.

Hah, my Sun is at 23°Libra. The New Moon will be still within orb from my Mars in Cancer, the party takes place in my 11th house. It’ll make an exact trine to my Venus.

Finding security with my friends. No problem.

11th house, between my Venus and my Sun, with my NN only 5 degrees away. I hope this helps me with work/family endeavours. : )

In my 7th. I definitely know what I need to focus on (partnerships and marriage).

I have been a bit nervous about July 18th as it would have been my best guy friend’s 50th birthday. I wasn’t sure how I would feel or how to handle that day. The new moon gives me something to focus on.

In 9th house and cancer rules 10th house. I’ll be having faith in my new religious beliefs. Also with my meditation meetup group.. I’m setting up to share hosting an event with a spiritual group from Montreal. And I’m getting a new spiritual mentor and partner as the one that led me to this point is going on mat leave. This new moon will be on my saturn. I’m also trying to come up with a final new career path here and am going to be working with another libra where we’ll be partners but I’ll also be in a natural mentor role.

Perhaps I’ll get a job opportunity that fits me to a T?

And I’ll be babysitting for my bro the day before. He’s trying to get me to stay over but I REALLY don’t want to. Super lack of space and comfort. I’d rather drive home really late.

Trining all my Scorpio planets. Support with my 2nd house stuff. It occurs in my 10th house anyway, which is good news.

Wow, this will fall really close to (not sure how close the orb has to be) falling right on top of one of my natal squares.

I have Mars at 22 cancer in the 10th squaring pluto at 26 libra and saturn at 28 libra in the 1st.

Hopefully this will be some good news for me (maybe career or relationship-wise?) as opposed to more bad. I could sure use it!

Sextile my 6th house pluto, trine 8th house jupiter. Have a potential job prospect/would be good $. Hard work. Have a few things to do to prepare. Car, go to chiropractor. Will include physical work and a mid size commute. ::fingers crossed::

Turns out my neighbor works for a chiro. :) What are the odds? :) Getting lucky potentials over here. :)

I just love other people’s families. It’s like a foregin land. Cancer on 9th house cusp? I always do well there. That’s the hardest part of breakups: I miss the other people sometimes.

I prefer jobs where I work on contract or through a temporary agency because I don’t get dragged into the political in-fighting and tribal warfare. Perhaps this virgo does better in the service quarters rather than the main house.

And perhaps if I had married (gone permanent) with those men it would have changed my relationships with their families.

I have been zooming out to the wider family of humans lately. Alot of it sad. Mainly because there is nothing I can do about it, but I do think I am finding my place in it all. It is just coming to grips with my PoF.

@Elsa “The Sun and Moon square Saturn @ 23 degrees Libra.”

Ha, my MC is at 23 Libra. This also trines my Neptune in Scorpio, sextiles my Sun/Pluto in Virgo, and so on. Cancer’s my 7th house.

Great article as always. I loved how clearly it played out in your case. For me, I need some help. Cancer is my 6th house and Saturn is in the end of my 8th house. Work/Health helped by other people’s money/resources?
