2020 New Moon in Cancer and Solar Eclipse: What You Need To Know

“And in total darkness, light is born”

On June 20 - June 21, the Moon will rebirth itself at 0 degrees Cancer, creating a fresh start in the area of your chart that rules the Cancerian Crab. 

With the Cancer New Moon also doubling as the final Cancer Solar Eclipse for the decade, this is a grand-slam for many, as endings and beginnings are an inevitable part of life.

Remember who you are….. 

The Cancer New Moon and Solar Eclipse will sextile Uranus in Taurus, bringing support to your financial goals and overall sense of self-worth. So even if the world around and within you feels shaky, know that you are protected and can turn things around. Trust your gut. 

If you’ve been looking to rebuild any area of your life, this is the time to do it (or start seriously thinking about it). 

The practical energy of Uranus in Taurus supports the emotional desires of Cancer but in a sustainable way. 

Even if you are crying your eyes out or bringing in Father’s Day with your family, stay grounded, and keep your eye on the prize. Don’t let emotions and sensitivities deter you from your long-term goal. 

Let go of the past...

As the Cancer New Moon and Solar Eclipse form an intense square with Chiron in Aries,  touchy subjects from the past may come up for clearing and reevaluation, so be willing to sit with what’s wounding you. 

For many, this wounding deals with a feeling of rejection, resentment, or unforgiven events that were most likely out of your control. 

Even if you did play a major part in your wounding, learn to forgive yourself. 

Instead of focusing on what did or didn’t happen, find your future in the present. 

Be willing to consciously observe the past without dragging it into your day. Witness and release. Don’t hold on to the pain.
