Read MoreOur New Moon is giving us a second chance this month with yet another cycle through Cancer, but what does a back-to-back Cancer New Moon mean? The new moon often represents a fresh start, new beginnings, and it is a great time to reassess the things going on in your life or choices you may have made. These moon cycles grant us the opportunity to look within ourselves, question our own motives and in turn make those outward changes to be the best versions of ourselves. However, this month it doesn’t exactly feel like a fresh start, am I right? I think we’re all feeling this sensation of moving in reverse, like we’re all going backwards instead of forwards. Staying stagnant when we should be moving. Is it because we’re emotionally exhausted? Stressed beyond belief? Or could it be that now is not the time to be moving in leaps and bounds? There is a time to move and there is a time to grow, but we must also make time to rest, dig deeper, and reevaluate. Without this period of digging for answers we risk moving in the wrong direction. Cancer is giving us this opportunity right now, so what does a consecutive Cancer New Moon actually mean?

Read MoreWe are experiencing a whole bunch of change, transformation, and new beginnings starting this weekend. It's the first day of summer, the first day of Cancer season, the first weekend of Mercury retrograde, and the start of a brand-new lunar cycle via the June 2020 new moon. This weekend's new moon will align with the sun in the emotional sign of Cancer, it is also a solar eclipse — which means that it's going to feel a lot more intense. Eclipses tend to speed up fate and bring about rapid changes in our lives. We're seeing this intensity on a large scale right now, as the civil uprisings against systemic racism are bringing about massive change in our society. But this weekend's eclipse in the sensitive sign of Cancer will also induce change on a much more personal level, hitting close to our hearts, shaking our foundations, and stirring up emotions.
