On New Year's day 2018 we are having a Full Moon in Cancer. What a way to start the New Year!
Full Moons are typically a time of culmination with a period of release following it.
Let's delve into the themes and aspects of this Full Moon to see what is culminating and what needs releasing.
With this Full Moon we're dealing with the Cancer-Capricorn axis. This is an axis that deals with security. Cancer with emotional security; wanting to feel safe and nurtured. Capricorn is about security more on a physical/material plane.
It's time to release some needs for security that aren't serving us anymore. There's a huge emphasis on Capricorn energy right now with four planets being in Capricorn including Saturn and Pluto. There's a bigger emphasis on the Capricorn energy than the Cancer energy. It's important to release some emotional, needy security issues because of this. The Cancer side of things seems to need the most releasing, although if you have Capricorn material security issues holding you back, you should look at that as well. All the heavy Capricorn energy is urging us to build the lives we want though. It's the time to focus on that and release security issues that are holding us back from manifesting what we want in our lives.
With this Full Moon it would ideally be good to find balance between Cancer and Capricorn needs however. Find balance between what your emotions want and what works best for you in the physical/material world.
Not only is it important to start building the life we want this month with all the Capricorn energy, it's important to remember that Saturn just entered Capricorn. We're starting a two and half year cycle right now. The things we decide to build will have long lasting results.
Out of the four planets in Capricorn at the time of the Full Moon, a conjunction between the Sun and Venus is the closest. This means that relationships for some people are a big focus at this time. Trying to build one or manifest the one we want. Venus is Capricorn takes relationships seriously. This really isn't a time to just mess around. There's a desire for much more than that.
The biggest aspect at this time is an exact trine between the Moon and Neptune. This is Neptune trying to positively help us. Urging us to connect to our spirituality. When the going gets tough connect back to the source. With all the security issues you may be feeling, remember that our greatest sense of security simply comes from the divine or the universe. Trust in the universe at this time. Neptune even at it's best can make things seems a bit foggy, so use it's positive side to trust in the universe and connect spiritually.
I wanted to mention that the day after the Full Moon Uranus goes direct. This could bring up something unexpected. When that happens though, all planets will be direct. That's kind of a big deal. You usually hear about the personal planets going retrograde, but outer planets go retrograde pretty often and for long periods of time. With all planets direct now, it's full steam ahead.
Two big aspects that we have to look forward to soon that I also wanted to mention are a conjunction between Mars and Jupiter and a sextile between Jupiter and Pluto. Things will really be moving and expanding to get us to our soul's deepest desires with the Mars and Jupiter conjunction. Jupiter sextile Pluto is a rare and important aspect that will really be pushing us to transform and grow. Lots of change coming!
The last thing I wanted to talk about may shed some light as to why it seems like there could be a bit of information lacking in our lives. We have all this Capricorn energy urging us to start building the lives we want, but Mercury is a straggler in Sagittarius. It turned direct a little bit ago, but hasn't caught up to where it was when it went retrograde. It's backtracking. It may feel like part of the truth is still missing or like we're still seeking where we should point our arrow to some extent.
~Overall this can be an intense and emotional time. Yes, this is a Super Moon so the energy is magnified and the Moon is in it's home sign of Cancer. Talk about feeling all the feels! This is quite the way to start the year. It's a time of release and culmination, so that we can really start to build the life we want. Change and transformation are coming, even if we're still a teeny bit unsure where things are going at the moment. It's all coming together in a big way though, and it will really be interesting to see how January plays out. ~
