New Moon in Gemini – Mask off
The New Moon in Gemini takes place on May 26 or 27, 2025, depending on where you are in the world—and it’s set to be a powerful one. Just a day before this New Moon forms at 7 degrees Gemini, the Moon will pass Uranus in the final degrees of Taurus. This alignment may bring unexpected events that act as catalysts for your personal reset. Be mindful of sudden triggers or even physical accidents—Uranus tends to push us, quite literally, out of outdated habits and into new terrain.
No more masks, no more facades
Adding to the momentum, Saturn entered Aries on May 25. This shift asks us to take full responsibility for our self-expression, our ego, and the path we’re carving ahead. Since the North Node moved into Pisces earlier this year, we’ve been propelled forward—closer to our dreams, our visions, and perhaps even our true selves—more than in all of last year, maybe even years before that.
Now, with both Neptune and Saturn in the mix, it’s no longer about dreaming change—it’s about committing to it. As astrologer Christopher Witecki once said, “It’s the new you that you always knew.” This isn’t a reinvention; it’s a return. A next chapter in your personal epic. Think of it like starting a new game in a beloved series—Zelda, Final Fantasy, whichever your soul resonates with. Until now, you may have clung to the old storyline, the old identity, the old mask. But that time is over.
The North Node in Pisces marks the beginning of an 18-year cycle, inviting us to continue our personal sagas with renewed vigor and authenticity.
Your authentic self wants out
This New Moon brings the chance to express your true self—especially after the Moon’s meeting with Uranus. Between May 25 and 26 (+/- a day), you might clearly see where you’re still stuck in old patterns or hiding behind familiar masks. Are you still pleasing others? Doing things that no longer feel aligned? That’s a hard no from the cosmos.
As the New Moon aligns with both Mercury and the Sun, the spotlight turns to how you communicate—especially on social media and in your everyday interactions. You may realize where emotional baggage has hijacked your thoughts or where guilt and unresolved feelings continue to shape your decisions. This lunation invites you to separate mind from emotion and recognize the outdated emotional patterns you’ve been dragging around as if they were still yours.
Your emotional patters are not your identity
This New Moon acts as a springboard toward living authentically. While transformation takes time, the energy of Gemini provides the curiosity and adaptability needed to explore new facets of ourselves. Embrace this period as an opportunity to set intentions, communicate openly, and take steps toward a life that reflects your true identity.
Enjoy the New Moon—and take the mask off.
