Daily Horoscope: New Moon in Cancer, June 28, 2022

New Moon in Cancer, Tuesday, June 28th, takes place in a cardinal (boss like) feminine water sign which rules the 4th house of home, family, parenting, and psychological foundations. Each of the 12 zodiac signs are assigned to different parts of the body, and Cancer is associated with the breasts, the stomach, and the womb. As the moon joins the sun in Cancer today, while forming a square aspect to Jupiter in Aries, the issue of women’s reproductive rights stands front and center. Venus in Gemini trine to Pluto in Capricorn and sextile to Jupiter in Aries gives women, and those who support their rights, the power to overcome patriarchal control. A square aspect between Mars in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn can give rise to an abuse of power and control, but it can also stimulate rage and righteous anger in the oppressed to be assertively and effectively directed toward the abuser – very much a double-edged sword at this time. Mercury square to Neptune in Pisces can feel like Mercury retrograde as it activates deception, illusion, disorientation, and disappointment, but Mercury is also trine to Saturn retrograde in Aquarius, indicating that the voice of the people will be heard, and inventive or alternative workarounds to restrictions will be created, which has already been seen as many large companies (Saturn in Aquarius) are offering to pay for transportation (Mercury in Gemini) on behalf of employees seeking care in states which support their reproductive rights. Beyond the present political issues, if you have any planets in your own natal chart in the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn, you could be feeling triggered and pressured to get unstuck, or take an action, at this New Moon due to the moon, sun, Mars, and Pluto transiting the cardinal signs activating a T-square or Grand Cross by transit to your natal planets. The protection and defense of what is vitality important to you is the essential work of this New Moon, and that may require you to nurture and love yourself so well that you have the power and fortitude to fight.
