We go into the weekend with a Taurus Moon, one that favors good company as well as good food. But with both Venus and Jupiter in Cancer, a sign that pulls Leo Season behind the scenes, we may be seeking out quiet time as well.
We’re a week away from Virgo Season and a Virgo New Moon, a moon that I have had my eye on ever since I sat down late in 2024 to go through the astrology of 2025. This new moon is important for a couple of reasons. One, it ushers us into a lunar month punctuated by a Pisces lunar eclipse on September 7. Two, it’s our first new (or full) moon directly aspecting Uranus in Gemini. (Read Uranus in Gemini: Radical Ideas)
Each planet plays a symbolic role in our lives. The Sun represents our self, where we shine the brightest … the Moon, our wants and needs … Saturn, the lessons we came to learn and our life-long priorities … to name a few.
Uranus is a bit different from the other planets. It’s an evolutionary planet, which means that its role is to get us to grow and evolve. It’s the great awakener, a planet that often accompanies us when we make breakthroughs or even a radical change.
As of July 7, Uranus is in Gemini for the first time in 80 years, which means that most of us alive have never experienced Uranus in Gemini. Much like when Uranus arrived in Taurus way back in 2018 and 2019, a key area of our lives has begun to shift. We’re early in the story. But the clues are there.

For most of us, we haven’t been alive for Uranus in Gemini. And now that Uranus is in Gemini, it’s a new era, one that will come to the forefront with the August 23 new moon at 0 Virgo and Uranus at 1 Gemini.
September, alongside two eclipses, may bring breakthroughs, reinventions, and changes. We can use this energy to break free from the past and to create movement if we have been feeling stagnant.
If you are in AUSTRALIA or NZ, this forecast applies approximately for August 16-18, 2025.
