The Moon and Sun meet at 6°06' Gemini at 03:02 UTC on 27 May 2025, making this the new moon of late May. The Moon sits 360,042 km from Earth, and there is no eclipse. Mercury, the ruler of Gemini, is within 3.7 degrees of the Moon, and Pluto, retrograde at the time, forms a trine to it at 2.4 degrees.

Astrologers read a Gemini new moon as a start for things of the mind: conversation, learning, errands, short trips and the exchange of ideas. With Mercury close by, the tradition puts extra weight on words and plans, while the trine from Pluto is taken to lend some depth to what gets said. A modest way to use it is to write down one question you want to explore and decide where you will look for answers.
