Cancer Full Moon

January 17 at 6:48 pm EST

Take time to reminisce, review the past year and reflect on where you have grown or transformed during the full moon in Cancer. The sign of the crab is about our home, our ancestry, and what nurtures us. The full moon illuminates the story that has shaped our present and allows us to examine where we would like to make changes as we move forward. This lunation is potent for change as the Sun is conjunct Pluto in Capricorn, shining a light on where we use our power and Uranus is stationing to turn direct. If you want to rewrite the script now is your opportunity.

Look back on what you have achieved, the goals that have been accomplished and all it took for you to be where you are today. Now is a time to let go of what didn’t work out, reassess the path forward and decide what can be left behind because it is no longer needed or isn’t necessary for our future success. Full moons contain a duality, the opposition of the sun and the moon. In this case it is the comfort and safety of the Moon in Cancer versus the ambition and authority of the Sun in Capricorn. These energies can work together well or create conflict, it all depends on if they are in sync for the same outcome. You are the one that determines what your end game is.

This is a time to finish up something you may have started under the Cancer new moon on July 20, 2020. Look back and see what has happened since then. Release the stories, the patterns and the habits that no longer motivate or are healthy for you. Honor your ancestors in some way. It can be retelling funny family stories, looking at old photographs, or maybe researching your heritage.
