The most dynamic New Moon of 2025 is upon us, folks.
On Monday, May 26th, at 11:02 PM EST, the New Moon in Gemini arrives high on its own supply.
Gemini is the zodiac’s resident storyteller, and under the dark skies and changing winds of this lunation, we’re all offered the opportunity to tell ourselves a different kind of story — and sail into a different way of being.
While we’re all aloft on the fumes of what is possible, four zodiac signs will feel the effects of this New Moon most acutely.
Read for your sun and rising sign.
The new moon is falling in the rich dirt of your first house of the self, Gemini.
Mercury, the god for whom your ruling planet is named, went from birth to flight and full fluency in under a week. There’s a similar acceleration of actualization for you under this New Moon — as you say it so shall it be — in kind, be kind, don’t look back, and insist on being a maximalist of your own self-hood.
We need you to be you because by existing, you make the world more interesting.
Less quiet, but endlessly more interesting.
Ahoy Virgo! This New Moon is kicking down the door of your tenth house of legacy, career, and authority figures. This is a summons to edit the narrative you have attached to the work that you do and how it is viewed.
How often do you toil for someone else’s dream or accept less when you should be asking for more?
This New Moon in Gemini isn’t a blank slate for you, my babies, it’s a blank check.
Step up, cash in, settle never.
Happy New Moon, Sagittarius! These dark skies highlight your seventh house of trusted partnerships, offering you the auspicious opportunity to rewrite the book of love.
How often do you think of love as a limitation rather than a force of liberation? What relationships in your life have reinforced this paradigm?
While you’re statistically more likely to cut bait than commit, Sag, under the influence of this moon, maybe you can resist either extreme — and instead get curious about the possibilities that live between.
The New Moon in Gemini activates your fourth house of origin, Pisces.
This is an invitation to consider your role in family dynamics and the stories you’ve been told about yourself.
What does the narrative say to you about you?
How much of your inner voice and cruel critic is the echo of a parental figure? Remember, fish folks — the sole power of a story rests in whether you believe it to be true.
Whether you are recovering a part of your past that you surrendered in order to be accepted, or are practicing fresh affirmations, you are more powerful than you know — and more valuable than you’ve ever been told.
