CANCER NEW MOON JUNE 25: SELF-PROTECTIVE REACTIONS TO EXTERNAL THREATS

Astrologically Speaking with Sheri

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST WHICH DROPS JUNE 23 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking
This week’s podcast reviews the major astrological energies affecting us right now—including the ongoing global realignment of partnerships, authoritarian restrictions against individual freedoms, the transgression of previously established boundaries, and the potential of the U.S.’s involvement in war, to name a few.
Since Israel’s attacks on Iran began on June 13, & the Sun’s entrance into Cancer at the summer solstice on June 20 (where he joined Jupiter & Mercury there), & Mars in Virgo, the U.S. decided to join also attack Iran on June 21 as we approach the Cancer New Moon on June 25.
Sensitivity is the name of the game right now, whether we overreact due to hyper sensitivity & lash out, or whether we run and hide to avoid any future pain. As the Sun & Moon conjoin at 4’08” Cancer, they both join Jupiter at 3 degrees Cancer to form a square to both Saturn & Neptune in Aries, which inserts an element of confusion into whether transgressing Iran’s boundaries by dropping bombs on their nuclear facilities was at all successful.
This Sun/Moon/Jupiter conjunction has lent itself to massive over enthusiasm that the “obliteration” of any nuclear threat from Iran, which may well turn out to be false. Similarly, their squares to Saturn/Neptune in Aries may highlight the hubristic nature of America’s unquestioning trust in Israel’s vaguely defined assessment that this threat was (or is) imminent over America’s own intelligence assessment which concluded that this is currently not the case.
This podcast look at the astrological energies leading up to this point where Iran has now retaliated against the U.S. base Al Udeid in Qatar located close to the Iranian border, and whether threats by Iran to actually close the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping are real or exaggerated.
We explore the triggered effects of the Mars/Uranus square which perfected on June 15, and how it’s brought us to this point of sudden warfare. And the effects of the Jupiter/Saturn square which has pitted old, restrictive conservatives against the young progressives a la the mythological battle between Zeus & Cronos, aka, Jupiter & Saturn.
Further, we explore the meaning of the two yods, or fingers of fate, formed now since the June 20 entrance of the Sun into Cancer at the summer solstice & which will reverberate still through the upcoming Cancer New Moon at 4’08” Cancer at 3:32 a.m. PT & 6:32 p.m. on June 25.
Voices--of both protestors against and adherents for war--may get louder as Mercury enters Leo on June 26, while Mercury’s trine to Neptune late June 27 or early June 28, depending on your time zone, may make it easier for some to swallow as true anything from denials to complete fabrications.
By the time Mercury opposes Pluto on June 29, we’ll have a recurrence of the natal energy of the U.S. Sibly birth chart’s 8th House Mercury opposite its 2nd House Pluto. So keep any eye what’s happening by then with Congress’s budget reconciliation bill currently stuck in the Senate as the GOP continues to believe that it can make tax cuts for the wealthy permanent at the expense of removing health care and more from U.S. citizens.
This podcast includes how Uranus at 29-degrees of Taurus, known as the Pleiades point, may well result in metaphorical “blindness” about the potential negative results of actions taken now. At least until they become obvious in the future, since Uranus will hit this degree again not once, but twice before the end of May 2026. Will we wake up to where we’ve been blind to what’s been going on around us and begin to “see" the reality/truth? Only time will tell…
