New Moon in Cancer

This Full Moon arrives in direct opposition to Jupiter in Leo.

This is not a quiet transit. It is not subtle. It does not ask us to shrink, hide, or remain emotionally disconnected from our desires. Jupiter in Leo arrives like sunlight breaking through heavy cloud cover. It amplifies visibility, ambition, creativity, confidence, leadership, artistry, and the deep human desire to leave something meaningful behind.
