New Moon in Ardra Nakshatra

25 June 2025

The upcoming New Moon in Ardra Nashatra will be quite a unique stellar event, with not only Moon and Sun tightly conjuct in the star of cosmic Rudra, but also Jupiter joining them in the same degree. Thus on that day Sun will be combusting, or symbolically refining within its fiery rays two planets, Jupiter and Moon. This intimate conjunction will additionally happen in the amsha of Goddess Sati in the D20 chart (Vimshamsha chart of spiritual progress), the Goddess who self-immolated herself, which will remind us of the meaning of sacrifice and the need of transformation in our lives. This deeply transformational fortnight will be ideal for any purification practices during this fortnight. It is, however, also an indicator that with Jupiter combust in Ardra our judgement might be clouded at times and we might like to avoid any impulsive decisions in this period.
