Let’s see how it affects each star sign individually:

Aries

The New Moon in Taurus activates your financial sector, bringing sudden developments and pressures. Unforeseen expenses may force you to rethink how you manage your money. At the same time, issues of self-esteem and personal values come to the fore – you may feel you need to reassess your relationship with security and material stability. You are called upon to make sensible choices, without acting on impulse. In your love life, passion may lead to tension or power struggles, particularly if there are unresolved issues in your relationships.

Taurus

This New Moon takes place in your sign and brings about intense events, both internal and external. You feel the need to redefine yourself, but external circumstances are pressuring you to act before you’re ready. You may face challenges in your relationships, as others may demand that you change or make decisions that you find difficult. Patience and self-care are essential, as your body and mind are being put to the test. Despite the challenges, this period could propel you towards a fresh start, provided you act strategically rather than impulsively.

Gemini

The New Moon stirs things up behind the scenes in your life, bringing to light hidden issues, worries and truths that you may not have been ready to face. Issues of trust or disappointments from people you didn’t expect may come to the surface. Anxiety and inner turmoil may be intense, making you feel the need to withdraw or reassess relationships and situations. Be wary of behind-the-scenes manoeuvring in the workplace and don’t let impulsiveness lead you to make the wrong decisions.

Cancer

This period affects your circle of friends, social groups and long-term goals. You may realise that some people are not what you expected them to be, leading to rifts or a distancing of relationships. At the same time, you may re-evaluate your goals and ambitions, as you realise that something no longer reflects who you are. Some partnerships or social relationships may be put to the test, so avoid heated arguments. Instead, focus on what brings you genuine value and support.

Leo

The stage of your life is illuminated by a New Moon that is shaking the foundations of your career and public image. The world around you is changing, and with it, the roles you are called upon to play are changing too. Sudden developments at work, pressure from superiors or even your own inner reflections are causing you to question the path you are following. Your ambitions are being tested by the challenges of reality, and you are called upon to prove your strength and resilience. Be wary of clashes with those in authority and do not rush into making decisions regarding your career – sometimes, patience is your greatest asset.

Virgo

Just like a traveller who suddenly loses their bearings, you too are called upon to question everything you once took for granted. The New Moon opens a new chapter in your personal development, your beliefs and your distant horizons. Your plans may be turned upside down, or you may need to adapt to new realities you hadn’t anticipated. Studies, travel, ideological conflicts or legal matters may come to the fore. Be wary of extreme reactions and give yourself time to reconsider what you consider important. Life is an endless journey of learning, provided you allow yourself to grow.

Libra

The shadows deepen and your desires grow more intense. This New Moon brings to the surface fears, passions and emotions that you had left buried deep within you. Your finances, your commitments and the power dynamics in your life are becoming a battleground. Your obsessions and weaknesses are coming to light, demanding that you confront them. Some chapters are closing, others are opening – but nothing remains the same. Be mindful of your financial dealings, avoid risky investments and do not let anyone push you to your limits. Every transformation is painful, but in the end it leads you to a truer version of yourself.

Scorpio

Your relationships are at the centre of the changes brought about by the New Moon. Anything that was unclear is now under the microscope and demands answers. Partnerships, marriage, commitments – everything is being put to the test as new developments emerge and demand adaptation. You may be confronted with revelations that alter the dynamics of a relationship, or feel that you need to set clear boundaries. If a relationship is strong, it will find a way to evolve. But if there is tension or pent-up frustration, then conflict is inevitable. The people around you reflect your inner world – what do you see when you look around you?;

Sagittarius

Your daily routine is being disrupted and you are being called upon to adapt to new circumstances. The New Moon brings upheavals in your work, your commitments and your physical well-being. The pressure is mounting and you may feel that you need to change your lifestyle to cope. Your commitments may seem overwhelming, but this is an opportunity to see what is truly worth your time and energy. Your health needs attention – don’t ignore the signs of fatigue and make sure you strike a balance between activity and rest. If a work situation no longer suits you, a change may be inevitable.

Capricorn

Love, creativity and your need for self-expression are at the heart of this New Moon. Intense emotions, passions and feelings that you cannot ignore are coming to the surface. Whether it’s a romantic relationship or a creative project, you feel that something is changing radically. There may be tensions or even break-ups if you feel that something is holding you back. If you’re a parent, you may need to pay more attention to your children or their needs. Your heart knows the truth – perhaps the time has come to really listen to it?;

Aquarius

The New Moon is turning things upside down in the areas of family, home and your personal foundations. Your roots, your relationships with your loved ones and the sense of security you have built up are being put to the test. There may be changes regarding your living situation, or you may feel the need to break away from something that is holding you back. Old emotional baggage is coming to the surface, demanding resolution. If there is tension within your family, this may come to a head. The past may weigh heavily on you, but only if you let it dictate your future.

Pisces

Your communication with the world around you is changing, as the New Moon brings about a shift in the way you think and express yourself. Unexpected news, conversations and information may lead you to make new decisions. Your relationship with siblings, close relatives or colleagues may experience some tension, but also some revelations. Be careful how you convey your thoughts – certain words may cause hurt or provoke a reaction. Your plans for moving house, travelling or studying may need to be adjusted. The world around you is changing – perhaps it’s time for you to change your perspective too?;
