The new moon in Cancer on 5th July 2024 is happening at 14º23' degrees of Cancer at 10.27pm (UK time). This is one of the nicest new moons of the year. It doesn’t form any tight aspect but it is loosely sextiling Mars in Taurus (within 4 degrees). Mars on the other hand is tightly sextiling Saturn in Pisces.
Mars is our energy, drive and passion. It’s the fuel of your natal chart and says a lot about the nature of our strength, our capacity for courage and our ability to endure. In Taurus, it’s a Mars that is practical, materialistic and security conscious. It possesses great stamina and a capacity to endure. Sexually, it’s a placement where the native’s voice can be a great attractor or detractor.
Saturn is the planet of restriction, control and limitation. In the natal chart, by sign, house placement and aspects, it points to the area of your life where we lack confidence or feel restricted. It’s the area of “shoulds” and “ought tos”. It’s the area where we are tested in this lifetime. If we pass the test, Saturn will eventually bring rewards. In Pisces, it invites us to be flexible, have fluid boundaries and work creatively but also warns us not to be sucked into something beyond our control.
On a collective level, a new moon in Cancer invites us to start afresh in the area of family, domestic life and emotional well-being. It wants us to follow our instinct and that includes our survival instinct and a desire to feel safe and to protect. With the sextile between Mars in Taurus and Saturn in Pisces, we are being driven by passion, based on solid foundations and encouraged to be creative within a fluid structure but a structure nonetheless. This combination gives us a balanced dose of passion and realism. Anything touched by Saturn has the potential to become something permanent.
As usual, if your birthday falls on 5th July or thereabouts, you will have a new moon in your solar return chart so that means the next 12 months offer opportunities for a lot of new beginnings. For the most accurate forecast, read your ascendent sign.

TAURUS
During this new moon with Mars in your sign, you should feel more driven than usual. At this time, you have an opportunity to start something new in the area of communication, local community, education or short-distance travel.

It might be a good time to think whether you should pursue financing of a career-enhancing project or there could be an opportunity to get a bonus or a sizable commission. Alternatively, there could be something psychologically demanding happening in your career that might lead to positive developments. Whatever it is, it looks like you have the mental resources to pursue your objectives.
VIRGO
This new moon is an opportunity for you to do something with your friends or join a new group. It might also be a good time to start pursuing a long-term objective like further education (your one-on-one relationships should be supportive at this time even though it may not have looked like that since March 2023). Alternatively, it might be a good time to go travelling with someone as it might open you up to a life-changing experience.
LIBRA
The new moon is happening in your career sector so think whether you could initiate something there in the next two weeks.
