The Womb of Transformation

In the sacred stillness of the New Moon, something profound stirs beneath the surface. On June 25th, 2025, the Sun, Moon, and Jupiter align exactly at 9 degrees of Gemini in the nakshatra of Ardra—a rare and powerful cosmic moment. In Jyotish, such transits are never accidental. They are activations. Portals.

This lunation is breathtaking in its design. Jupiter, the Guru, magnifies whatever it touches—bringing expansion, abundance, and potential for deep wisdom. But Ardra is ruled by Rudra, the storm god, whose symbol is a teardrop. There is heartbreak here. Something is being grieved, exposed, purified. Communications may shake us. Truths may unravel what we thought we knew. And yet—within that unraveling, there is extraordinary possibility.

This New Moon holds the energetic signature of a Yod—a finger of God—pointing us toward karmic reckoning and soul alignment. It speaks of a time when the mind must surrender to the soul, and the soul must surrender to the Guru, to divine timing, to the path of dharma.

The union of the Sun and Moon—the cosmic father and mother—marks the perfect time to plant seeds for the future. But not just any future. A future aligned with deeper truth. One that will grow with us for the rest of our lives.

This New Moon calls forth the fourfold path of inner alignment:

1. Sadhana — Daily devotion to presence, to light, to practice.
2. Sankalpa — A heart-born intention, clear and soul-led.
3. Surrender — Releasing control. Letting karma burn, and dharma return.
4. Shraddha — Faith in the unseen. Trust in divine orchestration.

When you remember that everything happens for a divine reason, fear begins to loosen its grip. You become strong. Clear. Protected by the force that moves the cosmos.

But make no mistake—this is a critical juncture for humanity.

Mars conjoins Ketu in Leo, stirring up themes of leadership, war, aggression, and collapse. Pluto, also at 9 degrees (in Capricorn), sits in a tight quincunx—intensifying the pressure. We are navigating atomic-level transformation, deep beneath the collective surface. There may be global unrest, confrontations with power, or shocking truths. But from this turmoil, something evolutionary is emerging.

Meanwhile, Saturn and Neptune conjoin at 7 degrees Pisces. This can cloud our vision. Illusions may feel real, while truth is harder to grasp. Ground yourself. Stay alert. Be mindful of your surroundings, and honor your intuition. The Earth is purging. She is recalibrating. So must we.

This is a sacred time to return to the essence of who you are.

To strip away what no longer serves.
To honor grief as sacred.
To let the light of Jupiter show you what is truly possible when you walk in truth.

Plant your seed.
Offer your prayer.
And know that from this storm, a new world can grow.

Love,
