🌑 New Moon 2026
New Moon in Gemini
A breezy, unencumbered New Moon for starting conversations, sparking curiosity, and planting social seeds.
What This New Moon Brings
After months of heavyweight transits — stelliums, Neptune conjunctions, Saturn alignments — the Gemini New Moon on June 15 at 24°02' offers something refreshingly simple: a blank page and a sharp pencil. With no major planetary aspects weighing it down, this lunation has an unusual lightness. Think of it as the cosmos clearing its throat before speaking clearly.
Gemini is the zodiac's journalist, networker, and eternal student — endlessly curious, socially dexterous, and genuinely delighted by the exchange of ideas. This New Moon carries that same buzzing, pollinating energy. It's the perfect time to start a conversation you've been meaning to have, sign up for a class that piques your curiosity, pitch an idea, begin a writing project, or simply reconnect with the neighbor, sibling, or old classmate you've been thinking about.
The lack of heavy aspects is actually the gift. Without Saturn demanding structure or Neptune blurring boundaries, your intentions can be playful, multiple, and experimental. You don't have to choose one thing. Gemini thrives on variety — set three intentions instead of one. Start the podcast AND the book club AND the language class. This New Moon rewards the scattered brilliance that other lunations might judge. Let your mind wander toward whatever lights it up.

How It Affects Your Sign
Select your Sun, Moon, or Rising sign for a personalized reading.
Aries
Your 3rd house — Gemini's natural home — is activated. Communication is your superpower this lunar cycle. Set intentions around a writing project, a difficult conversation you need to initiate, or a short course that sharpens your skills. Your words carry unusual impact right now. Text the person. Send the pitch. Say the thing.
Taurus
The 2nd house of income and resources gets Gemini's multitasking energy. Side hustles, freelance gigs, and creative ways to monetize your skills are all favored. Set intentions around diversifying your income streams or learning a skill that increases your marketability. Gemini says you don't have to rely on a single paycheck — variety is security.
Gemini
This is YOUR New Moon in your 1st house — a personal reset button for your identity and self-expression. How do you want to present yourself to the world for the rest of 2026? Set intentions around personal branding, communication style, appearance, or any aspect of your self-presentation. You get to reintroduce yourself to the world, and the world is ready to listen.
Cancer
Your 12th house of the subconscious is activated with mental, airy energy. Journaling, talk therapy, and processing your inner dialogue are all supported. Set intentions around understanding your own thought patterns better. What stories is your mind telling you on repeat? This New Moon helps you notice them — and start writing new ones.
Leo
The 11th house of social networks and future hopes gets a communicative boost. New friendships, group memberships, and community involvement are all ripe for intention-setting. Set goals around expanding your social circle with interesting, stimulating people. The friend you meet under this New Moon could become a significant ally.
Virgo
Your 10th house of career and public reputation is animated by Gemini's versatile energy. A new professional skill, a communication-focused career move, or increased visibility through writing or speaking are all favored. Set intentions around being known for your ideas, not just your output. Your intellectual gifts deserve a bigger stage.
Libra
The 9th house of travel, higher learning, and beliefs receives this curious energy beautifully. Set intentions around learning something that genuinely fascinates you — no practical justification needed. Book a trip to somewhere you've never been. Start a philosophical conversation that changes your perspective. Gemini gives you permission to follow your curiosity wherever it leads.
Scorpio
Your 8th house of deep exchange and transformation gets a lighter touch than usual. This New Moon helps you talk about heavy things without drowning in them. Set intentions around having the difficult financial conversation, researching an investment, or opening up to someone about the things you usually keep locked away. Gemini lends eloquence to your intensity.
Sagittarius
This New Moon opposes your sign, activating your 7th house of partnerships. One-on-one relationships benefit from better communication — actually listening, not just waiting to talk. Set intentions around having more honest conversations with partners, or attracting someone who stimulates your mind as much as your adventurous spirit.
Capricorn
The 6th house of work routines and health gets Gemini's organizational variety. Set intentions around streamlining your daily systems, learning a new productivity method, or adding intellectual stimulation to your workday. Your health benefits from movement that engages your mind — walking meetings, dance, or exercise that doesn't bore you.
Aquarius
Your 5th house of creativity and self-expression is sparked with ideas. A creative writing project, a social media presence that actually reflects your personality, or a hobby that feeds your brain — all are excellent intentions. This New Moon says creativity and intellect are not separate endeavors. The most interesting art comes from a curious mind.
Pisces
The 4th house of home and family receives Gemini's communicative energy. Conversations with family members can clear old static. Set intentions around improving communication within your household, creating a home library or study space, or finally having the talk with a family member that's been overdue. Your home benefits from more words and fewer unspoken assumptions.
Intention Setting
New Moons are for planting seeds. Set intentions with these practices.
The Letter You'll Never Send
Write a letter to someone — living or dead, known or imagined — saying everything you've never said. Don't censor, don't edit, don't worry about grammar. The act of putting unsaid words on paper is deeply Geminian magic. When you're done, fold the letter and place it under your pillow for one night. The next morning, burn it or keep it — either way, the words have been released.
Curiosity List Intention
Write a list of 10 things you're curious about right now — no matter how random. Number them. Then circle the three that make your pulse quicken slightly. Those are your New Moon intentions in disguise. Commit to taking one small action toward each within the next two weeks. Gemini's magic lives in the follow-through on curiosity.
Mercury's Mirror Conversation
Sit across from a trusted friend or partner. Set a timer for five minutes each. One person speaks uninterrupted while the other only listens — no advice, no reactions, just presence. Then switch. This ritual honors Gemini's twin nature: the speaker and the listener, the teacher and the student. Set an intention afterward about what kind of communicator you want to become.
Dual Candle Lighting
Light two candles — yellow or light blue, Gemini's colors — side by side. Assign one candle to represent a mental intention (something you want to learn, write, or communicate) and the other a social intention (a relationship you want to begin or strengthen). Gemini is the sign of duality — you don't have to choose one intention when you can genuinely hold two.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the June 2026 Gemini New Moon unique?
This New Moon at 24°02' Gemini is notably free of major planetary aspects — no squares, oppositions, or heavyweight conjunctions. This gives the lunation a light, unencumbered quality that's rare in 2026. It's an ideal time for playful, experimental intention-setting without the cosmic pressure that accompanied earlier New Moons this year. Think of it as a creative breather.
Can I set multiple intentions during a Gemini New Moon?
Absolutely — in fact, Gemini encourages it. Unlike more focused signs that demand single-pointed intention, Gemini thrives on multiplicity. Set two or three intentions that excite your curiosity. The sign of the Twins understands that you contain multitudes, and your goals can reflect that diversity without losing power.
What areas of life does a Gemini New Moon affect?
Gemini governs communication, learning, writing, local community, siblings, neighbors, short trips, and all forms of information exchange. This New Moon is especially powerful for starting a writing project, enrolling in a course, improving your communication skills, launching a social media presence, reconnecting with your local community, or healing a sibling relationship.
How should I set intentions during a Gemini New Moon?
Write them down — Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of writing. Use specific, active language. Instead of "I want better communication," try "I will have one honest conversation per week with my partner" or "I will write 500 words every morning." Gemini responds to concrete, actionable intentions. Speaking your intentions aloud adds extra power, as Gemini rules the voice.
