As the new moon shines in the sky, you will find that this lunar phase is a time of reflection and liberation. It is as if the moon had buried itself in the shadow of the night, providing you with fertile soil to plant a new seed.
This is why new moons are considered new starts or new beginnings; it’s a chance to let go of your past and lay the foundation for the next chapter in your life.
Even if each new moon will impact you in a unique way, the new moon of May 2020 will be the worst for these zodiac signs: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces and this will encourage them to face some harsh truths. However, they will each come out of the experience feeling so much stronger and better prepared for what lies ahead.
Taking place on May 22 at 1:38 p.m. ET, this new moon is rising in airy and intellectual Gemini, calling on you to embrace your intelligent side and communicate your thoughts. However, the new moon is not the only thing that will be in Gemini. In fact, three other planets, including the Sun, Mercury, and Venus, will also be in Gemini.
Considering how the water signs tend to feel as if they drown when they encounter the aerial element in astrology, this new moon will be particularly difficult for Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. Whatever the attempt of this new moon, it is also an opportunity to learn more about your relationships and to communicate your feelings.
With Venus, the planet of love and friendship, currently retrograde, this new moon is a great time to talk about how you really feel with someone you care deeply about. Here’s what the water signs should know:
