The first new moon of summer is here — and it's a powerful one. The new moon in Cancer occurs on June 25 at 6:31 a.m. ET.

While new moons are always times of new beginnings in astrology, they take on the specific flavor of what's occurring in the cosmos. In this case, the new moon aspects Mars in Virgo, Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn in Aries and Neptune in Aries.

Emotions will be heightened, so please be kind to yourself and others. Things will feel out of control on small and large scales. We may feel the world is ever changing and evolving, making it hard to keep up with fresh views and novel ideas.

Here's what to know about how the new moon will affect your sign.

Aries

You’re returning to the old philosophies you learned in your youth. Find a balance of ideology that works for you and you alone. As long as you can access your inner wisdom and truth now, you can soar high and be at peace with yourself during this intense lunation.

Taurus

Time to face the truth: You’re listening to others but not exactly hearing them. Tuning out the details of matters and conversations will prove catastrophic if you do not learn to pay attention to what others are saying. Listen up, then make your decisions. Understand matters in your own time.

Gemini

Creating boundaries is easy, but it’s hard for you to stick with them. The truth is that your heart is so big and generous that you want to make everyone happy. As you’ll soon find out, it’s impossible to do that. All the more reason why you should create limits with others. Before you reverse the structure you have spent so much time implementing within relationships, find time to reprogram your heart and mind by learning when to say yes and no.

Cancer

Your professional aspirations will be cloudier than ever, as you are unsure of the steps needed to elevate your professional dreams. Try vision-boarding your goals with your friends for fun to gain clarity on your path for the future. Taking a break from stressing out about work will be the healthiest thing you can do for yourself, as it will allow you to recharge your senses and find clarity in the direction you want to take your career.

Leo

Think of this time of solitude as a blessing in disguise. Not only will you be able to take care of everything that crosses your path, but you’ll be able to win at every endeavor. Nothing will stand in your way of success, as the universe now protects you.

Virgo

Friendships will be more confusing than ever, as you may feel your crew isn’t listening to you. Try to speak to them with directly so that they can understand your concerns and feelings. Don’t shy away from opening up. Although it will be hard to discuss, you must let your friends know how you truly feel about them to mend fences and to become closer.

Libra

You’re overworked and exhausted. Incorporate healing and rejuvenating baths into your routine. Don’t be afraid to sleep in now and again. Hitting the snooze button can be therapeutic, as long as you know you must wake up and start the day off soon. Don’t get so lazy that you forget about your obligations.

Scorpio

Love is on your mind. But you may find it hard to find someone worth committing to. This doesn’t mean you’re destined to be single for the upcoming months ahead. You have to look harder and put more effort into finding your person. If you aren’t lining up with anyone in particular, you may want to try a creative pursuit. This will satisfy the romantic sensibilities that are brewing within you and give you a chance to create something new and inspiring for yourself.

Sagittarius

Don’t underestimate the power of projection. Unfortunately, others are only seeing what they want to see in you now (and vice versa). Therefore, it’s time to put on an enchanting show and wear your rose colored glasses to give off a positive image and vibe. The flipside is that we may be the ones who are projecting our emotions onto others, which may not prove to be accurate or honest.

Capricorn

Finding your vibe and tribe is proving to be more complicated than you thought. However, if you change your attitude and belief system, you can find people with whom you jive well and places you can live for the long haul. If you can’t move at the present time, try adding spiritual pursuits to your daily routine. You’ll find that this activity helps to clear the energy and makes you feel emotionally and mentally fulfilled.

Aquarius

It’s time for you to get a handle on your finances, Aquarius. Although committing to a financial plan is seemingly complex, you must make it work to have savings for a rainy day handy in your bank account. The caveat is that you are not feeling the importance of financial gain, as you are relinquishing the control that the material world has over your financial well-being. However, you need money to live on, so it’s advisable to seek help to navigate through the murky waters of your finances.

Pisces

A former friend will slowly resurface over the next few days. While opening the door to yesteryear may be tempting, you’ll hesitate because you don’t want to focus on the good old days. Live in the present, not in the past, or move on. If you engage with old ghosts, you may trick yourself into thinking that they’ve changed when they haven’t, to believe the best in them now.
