Heartfelt Wellness Healing One Heart at a Time

24/06/2025

HEADS UP! Tomorrow's NEW MOON!

GREETINGS ALL,

Our CANCER NEW MOON feels right at home as this sign is ruled by the MOON. Home is where the Heart is! What is a home? What helps you to feel at home? It's within us, and where we feel safe, nurtured, mothered, relate (especially to family), and can express our feelings. This will be a very HEART-Led time if we open and allow the connection. It also can be a sensitive and emotional time, intensity with intimate feelings. Intuition and creativity will be heightened now. This watery MOON sign can be very helpful and insightful for healing relationships, especially with those we love.

The planetary environment around this NEW MOON is supported by the planet JUPITER (expansion/growth/abundance) which has also recently moved into the sign of CANCER for the next year. Another aspect taking place with the Moon, maybe a bit more complicating, involving planets Pluto, Saturn and Neptune. When moving forward with plans, personal obstacles or blocks may have to be managed with care and sensitivity.

This CANCER NEW MOON occurs on WEDNESDAY, June 25th, 2025 at 6:32 AM, EDT (adjust to your time zone). Each NEW MOON, and during its waxing stage, can be a very powerful tool for planning ahead, and it's enhanced when writing down those goals. It's important to release just before a NEW MOON, (while in its Balsamic phase), what's no longer supporting you. Journaling before helps us express feelings and create clarity, which might assist in designing a clearer intentions list. Times best for writing your intentions are after the NEW MOON is exact, then through the next few days and weeks up through the Full Moon. But it's best to avoid times when the moon goes Void of Course (it's not making aspects to any planets as it's due to change signs). During the next week, those short times to avoid writing are:
FRI 6/27 from 1:16 AM to 2:05 AM
SUN 6/29 from 7:02 AM to7:43 AM
TUES 7/1 from 4:46 PM to 5:16 PM
WED 7/2 from 3:30 PM to FRI 7/4 5:33AM (all day 7/3)

NEW MOON TONIGHT!!! May 26.

GREETINGS and BLESSINGS,

We've recently moved into the sign of GEMINI after leaving TA**US, allowing for a very different atmosphere. Have you noticed you've wanted to connect more, maybe a bit more curious about some things, or even ready for a change? This energy asks us to communicate, be flexible, open, and positive, and it will support us.
Known for its intellect and communication skills, (both expressing and listening), this sign loves socializing and exploring. Information and research are also key here but can be easily leading to overwhelm for some. Siblings and neighbors are a part of the month's theme too, a good time for sharing ideas and improving those relationships. Overall it's an upbeat energy and a great month for writing down our intentions for the future.

Another aspect that will be positive in the next few days is there will be a Trine. The planet Pluto in Aquarius and Mercury in Gemini will be conjunct the moon. Trines bring an ease to things with fewer difficulties and this will can be empowering. Pluto will add more depth to a usually not so deep air energy, which can add a quality or meaning, especially with conversation.

On MONDAY, MAY 26, 2025 at 11:02 PM EDT (adjust to your time zone) the NEW MOON in GEMINI begins. Generally, the first 8 hours after the exact time are most potent times for writing your intentions down. A strong NEW MOON energy will last for the first few days following the exact time of the NEW MOON, and continues up until the Full Moon. As the moon waxes it has an expansive energy helping our ideas and intentions ride with the with the growing light of the moon. There's plenty of time to work with your feelings, getting more clarity on what's most important. With the hours or days before a New Moon, one can work with releasing un-serving old structures and beliefs in the Balsamic moon phase. Keep an open mind with an open heart before setting intentions. Balsamic phase is the time for reflection, surrender, letting go, slowing down, and listening within.

There will be a few times when it's best to avoid working on your intentions list, that is when the moon is Void Of Course (meaning it's making no aspects to any planets). These times listed below are best if possible to avoid for writing your lists during this upcoming week ( all in EDT).
WED 5/28 from 9:01 AM to 1:32 PM
FRI 5/30 from 12:50 PM to 4:16 PM
SUN 6/1 from 7:38 PM to 11:00 PM
WED 6/4 from 7:11 AM to 9:38 AM
For more of these VOC dates, see Void Of Course Moon Times in Astrology | Cafe Astrology .com:

This NEW MOON allows for a smoother fresh mental start and could be fast moving. It may be encouraging us to journal, speak up, listen more, and can be playful or fun. Remember to find the time for stillness within or peaceful activities to strengthen your own connection to your inner guidance. During this time there can be a more scattered atmosphere. Also being mindful of the way you relate to yourself as well as to others.

May you ride this GEMINI NEW MOON energy and bring forth your truth through expressing yourself in a clear and focused way. Plant seeds for fresh ideas, growth, learning, and meaningful conversation. May you have many opportunities for an expansive and curious month!

SATURDAY'S NEW MOON ECLIPSE!

GREETINGS FRIENDS,

Another eclipse is here this weekend, it's a PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE and it may or may not be so visible here on the east coast, but could still be felt. This NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE will be in the sign of ARIES, signifying the beginning of the astrological new year. NEW MOONS always offer us a fresh new start and now aligned with the sign of ARIES and the eclipse, it brings us that more intense goal-oriented energy. The initiator energy is a perfect opportunity to move forward with new plans for your future. Eclipse energies last for at least six months, some say even years! They bring usually huge (powerful) shifts in our lives, individually and/or collectively. Think of them as Re-sets or Re-newals.
Here's how you can check if it's visible for you and the timing:
https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2025-march-29

March has been one of the most intense months of the year astrologically. We are still in Mercury and Venus Retrograde periods, this reminds us to to be more conscious before moving forward, taking our time while things might still seem foggy for a bit to us, and learning from our past expereiences. Good news, Mercury will be going direct in about a week, April 7th, followed by Venus stationing direct April 12th. April could be a less intense month than March, maybe giving us some time to breathe. It will also have the energy of PISCES and ARIES, as both signs will be dominant for a while with heavy planetary placements in those signs.
This ARIES NEW MOON PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE occurs exactly on SATURDAY, MARCH 29, 2025 at 6:58 A.M. E.D.T. (adjust to your time zone). Usually the first 8 hours following a NEW MOON are the most potent for writing down goals, although this energy lasts several days, actually this new-start energy is really anytime up to the Full Moon on April 12th. Remember because of the eclipse, it will go further!
Writing down your intentions helps to confirm and strengthen them, adding to the effectiveness of seeing them through fruition. If possible, add the "feeling you wish to feel" when writing, as if you have your goal already met. Allow your passionate feelings to drive this energy with Gratitude, intending that the highest good will be served.

The Balsamic moon phase, just few days and hours before and up to the NEW MOON is a time for reflection, releasing, shedding what no longer is serving your life. Timing for this process is perfect today or tonight.
***There are sometimes short periods of time, which are NOT ideal for writing your list, before the moon shifts to the next sign and it's making NO major aspects to other planets. This is called Void Of Course moon. During the next week if possible, AVOID writing your intentions during these VOC moon times, (all EDT):
SUN 3/30 from 5:18 AM to 4:15 PM (all day)
TUES 4/1 from 1:42 PM to 4:25 PM
THURS 4/3 from 2:26 PM to 6:50 PM
SAT 4/5 from 6:54 PM to SUN 4/6 12:34 AM
TUES 4/8 from 12:08 AM to 9:40 AM
(For more on VOC dates see https://cafeastrology.com/void-of-course-moon-times.html

GREETINGS FRIENDS at this PISCES NEW MOON,

We're entering our NEW MOON cycle once again tonight and with it is a huge watery energy consisting of many planets in PISCES that join the aligned Sun and Moon (Mercury, Saturn, Neptune and North Node). Adding to this, is the now direct planet of MARS, (who just left its Retrograde period on the 23rd), also in a watery sign, CANCER.

This NEW MOON will be followed by other strong planetary aspects during March. Venus and Mercury will be stationing Retrograde (see more below *** on March heads up). Keep in mind, we are approaching eclipse season also which creates big shifts in the collective and in each of us individually.

This NEW MOON occurs today, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2025 at 7:35 PM EST (adjust to your own time zone). Writing down your creative ideas, goals, or intentions following this time is recommended with usually the first 8 hours being most potent. There is still plenty of time left for contemplating and writing intentions to ride with this energy up to the full moon in two weeks. This is a potent time for feeling our way into the future. NEW MOONs are perfect for planting seeds especially with this energy of PISCES (the dreamer). Your intentions can be made known through journaling, listing, coloring, drawing, etc. Most importantly connecting to your heartfelt feelings is key.
The Balsamic moon phase, which is now and just before any NEW MOON, is best time for letting go the old which no longer serves your highest good and what you are not willing to bring forward into this new beginning energy.
**(Keep in mind times when the moon will be Void of Course, which means it makes no aspects to other planets and is not favorable for new beginnings.) The Moon will be VOC during these times for the next week, so it's best to AVOID writing your intentions then (all in EST).
(more times further out on VOC at https://cafeastrology.com/void-of-course-moon-times.html )
SAT 3/1 from 3:05 AM to 4:52 AM
SUN 3/2 from 8:52 AM to MON 3/3 5:32 AM (all day Sunday)
WED 3/2 from 5:53 AM to 7:29 AM
FRI 3/7 from 9:57 AM to 11:29 AM

The symbol for PISCES is of two fish swimming in opposite directions and PISCES is known to be one of the most spiritual and intuitive signs. It is a Mutable, Water sign ruled by planets Neptune and Jupiter. Water signs generally are more fluid, emotional, sensitive and imaginative.
Below are some of the characteristics which you may want to include on your list of intentions that rule the sign of PISCES:

DREAMS, SURRENDER, FAITH, SPIRITUAL, SACRED, METAPHYSICAL, FLOW (Go with it!), INSPIRATION, CREATIVITY, PSYCHIC, EMPATHY, INTUITIVE, CONNECTION TO ALL/ONENESS, MAGICAL, HELPFUL, INNER PEACE, MEDITATION, HEALING, PEACEFUL,BEING OF SERVICE, PRAYER, IMAGINATION, MULTIDIMENSIONAL, FEELINGS, TRANSCENDENCE,

** Heads up, March will be a very active, powerhouse month as we approach eclipse season, Venus Retrograde and Mercury Retrograde. Venus retrogrades on March 1st, Mercury retrogrades on March 15th, Lunar Eclipse March 13th and a Solar Eclipse takes place on March 29th.
Video on March:

PISCES, being the last sign of the zodiac, (the new astrological year actually begins at the spring equinox, March 20), reminds us to let go, trust, have faith, and surrender and remember to find ways to ground yourself. This energy wants us to be softer with ourselves, to flow and reconnect with our inner world and deepest values.

Wishing you all a safe and easeful month with much patience, peace, inner reflection, and deeper spiritual connection.
Namaste 🙏

Blessings Be,😇

NEW MOON WEDNESDAY 1-29-25

Greeting Friends and All,

Tomorrow is our first NEW MOON of 2025 and it's in the sign of AQUARIUS aligning with the CHINESE NEW YEAR of the SNAKE! The energy will be shifting and very different from last month's CAPRICORN themes. More the important reason to be planting seeds for our future vision, AQUARIUS is about the future. Technology, new ideas, and information will be highlighted. Big influences from both the signs of AQUARIUS and PISCES energies will be dominant now. As SNAKES shed their skin and regrow new skin, we also have this opportunity to discard the old, leave it behind and put on our new skins (rebirth and renewal). See more on Chinese New Year here:
https://chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/snake/

Other planetary aspects may add to a more positive tone to this NEW MOON. JUPITER is making a Trine to this NEW MOON affecting it auspiciously, in the sign of GEMINI. NEPTUNE in PISCES brings us more in touch with our dreams and spirituality. MERCURY also in AQUARIUS, asks us to dig deeper into our beliefs and find the truth. And URANUS will be going direct the day after, January 30! Anytime planets come out of retrograde, and station direct there is a shift of moving forward again.

AQUARIUS is a Fixed, Air sign and is symbolized by the water-bearer (a symbol for healing and transmuting). It has two rulers, the planet URANUS (the Great Awakener) and SATURN (responsibility). A recent shift was PLUTO'S entry into AQUARIUS lasting for a very long time, nearly 20 years! This is a huge planetary change which will affect the collective as well as each of us individually. PLUTO is about TRANSFORMATION and with lots of AQUARIUS energy many changes will be coming and quickly. With the AQUARIAN atmosphere, new inventions and out-of-the-box thinking will be amplified. You may notice this month some of these characteristics and themes below that rule the sign of AQUARIUS:
INDIVIDUALIST
INNOVATIVE
EXPERIMENTAL
INDEPENDENT
AUTHENTICITY
FUTURE-MINDED
IDEALISTIC
FREEDOM
NEW IDEAS
COMMUNICATION
REVOLUTIONARY
WORLDLY/GLOBAL
EQUALITY
UNCONVENTIONAL
VISIONARY
BRILLIANCE
FRIENDS
HUMANITARIAN
HUMOR
UNIQUE
NETWORKING
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX
INVENTIVE
TECHNOLOGY
DIFFERENT
COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS
ACQUAINTANCES
LONG TERM GOALS/DREAMS/HOPES
ORIGINAL
KNOWLEDGE
CREATIVITY
THINKERS
ECCENTRIC
NEW GROUPS/ORGANIZATIONS
BROAD PICTURE and IDEAS
WILLFUL
INTELLECT
OBJECTIVE
DETERMINED
ASTROLOGY
VOLUNTEERING
Shadow Side

UNEMOTIONAL
DETACHED FEELINGS
OPINIONATED
UNRELIABLE

This NEW MOON occurs WEDNESDAY,JANUARY 29, 2025 at 7:36 A.M., E.S.T.(adjust to your time zone). This forward-thinking, forward-moving, NEW MOON is a great time for writing a new chapter in your life. NEW MOONS are potent times to use your vision to plan for new beginnings.The best time for writing your goals would be after the exact time above, (usually the first 8 hours being most potent and first few days). But the expansive, growing NEW MOON energy will continue through the next two weeks up to the Full Moon. Adding how you want to feel while contemplating your list, will be more powerful. See, feel, and visualize, if you can, what it will look like when it comes to fruition. Drawing and journaling are other ways to to do too. Utilizing the time just before, and up to, the NEW MOON (Balsamic moon phase) is best for shedding and releasing the old, this creates new space for the new. It is also suggested around the Chinese New Year, clearing and cleaning your space helps set the year up with a clean slate.

**There may be times when the moon is Void of Course and not the best times for writing down wishes. (VOC is when planets are not making any aspects just before changing signs). Here are some VOC times to avoid writing for the next week (in EST):
THURS 1/30 from 6:29 AM to 5:52 PM (all day)
SAT 2/1 from 5:06 PM to 8:10 PM (3 hours)
MON 2/3 from 5:19 AM to 10:33 PM ( all day/night)
WED 2/5 from 10:29 PM to THURS 2/6 1:43 AM (few hours)
SAT 2/8 from 2:52 AM to 6:04 AM
(You can find out more upcoming VOC times here:
https://cafeastrology.com/void-of-course-moon-times.html

Here are some samples of written goals that include AQUARIAN themes:
"I am grateful to find a new group of like-minded friends to communicate and share my creative ideas with for a better vision for our planet."
"I am grateful to be participating in those activities that attract happy, healthy friendships."
"I am grateful that I now see what is going on in the situation with ______."
"I am grateful that I easily find new ways to be creative and innovative, thereby expressing my true self."
"I am grateful for my new independence and easily share my unique gifts with the world."
"I am grateful to joyfully learn new technology for networking and better communication."
"I am grateful for the clarity I easily receive around the actions I need to take to move this _________ project forward."

I'm sharing this prayer borrowed from Debra Silverman, she writes:
This New Moon has a prayer for you...

Help me keep my mind open.
Allow me to celebrate the diversity of this world without resistance.
I want to grow, help me to do so.
I am yielded and willing to learn something new, that is old or new.
I am here and available for evolution - this is my promise.
Help me evolve.
May it be so.

That this new moon opens your mind and takes you to the tenderness of your wise heart.
Debra ...https://debrasilvermanastrology.com/double-aquarius-sky-we-are-in-the-future/

As we envision our personal worlds and collective worlds, know the cosmic atmosphere can be very supportive now. Humanitarian and community efforts will increase, as AQUARIUS energy will be affecting society as a whole. This will be an important time for grounding ourselves, meditation, settling and silencing our minds, and staying in the present. Use the tools that work for you. There's a lot of AIR (mental) energy, but the PISCES stellium will soften it and help bring understanding and trust. Doing our inner work as well as outer is very important, and reach out if you need help.
May you be Divinely guided and protected in these changing times and emerge with a deeper, broader understanding and knowledge of a new way of being for yourself and others.
Namaste,🙏
Light, Love, and Blessings,👼

30/12/2024

HEADS UP!!! MONDAY, 12/30/24 LAST NEW MOON!

GREETINGS ALL,

This is the last NEW MOON of 2024, also the second one this Month! It happens to be also the second CAPRICORN NEW MOON this year. When there is a second NEW MOON in the same month it is known as a Black Moon, which happens around every 29 months. This final NEW MOON phase lands just as we are about to enter the New Year. The timing here benefits us perfectly, with the determination, discipline, goal-setting, and resourcefulness of the sign of CAPRICORN going into 2025. And just before any NEW MOON we have the Balsamic phase, the dark period of releasing and letting go. Again, perfectly timed with the end of this year where we can reflect a bit on the past year, and set free what we no longer want to bring into the new year. It might be helpful to make a list of those things you don't want to take into the new year, then it will be clearer to see what you do want. Allowing time to sit with this process a while before writing the new moon list could benefit greatly. Noticing the blessings you've received along with the challenges you've overcome, thanking them for the lessons learned, and seeing how far you've come.

This practical NEW MOON will occur on MONDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2024 at 5:27 P.M. EST (adjust to your time zone). Take your time after the NEW MOON to compile your list, focusing with patience after you've reached clarity. This sign plans for the future and wants to achieve. Writing down goals usually just after the exact time is most powerful and this expansive energy lasts many days afterwards, with the waxing moon right up until the full moon. Include how it would feel when each intention is fulfilled, holding that vision, what joy will it bring you? Bring your passion into it.
(There are times to avoid writing your list when the moon goes Void Of Course, which means the moon is switching to another sign and there is a short period when there are no aspects happening) Here are some Void of Course times to avoid if your writing during the next week (times are EST):
WED 1/1/25 from 1:02 AM to 5:49 AM
THURS 1/2 from 11:13 PM to FRI 1/3 10:21 AM
SUN 1/5 from 9:30 AM to 2:01 PM
TUES 1/7 from 4:16 PM to 5:11 PM
