January 12th's Cancer Full Moon calls us home to ourselves, to who and what we love. Emotions are high. We may be pulled to extremes. Riding the wave of Cancerian watery emotional depths, we easily could plunge in between recklessness and vulnerability, and from neediness to wanting to cocoon alone.
On January 8th the forward motion of New Year started up. This full moon is an opportunity to tie up loose ends from last year and take a look inward to what we really wish for and for what really matters to us.
☽Truth
Two opposing warrior goddesses stand face to face, swords drawn, yet the all seeing eye in the moon is our full moon calling us back to what is true. We are pulled in so many directions and greatly influenced by the outside world. Responsibilities call to us. How can we not be influenced by the what the world says it right and true? Tv commercials use new age sayings to sell their products, seeming to carry a hidden promise that life will be wonderful. Buying this will make you feel so good and could change everything. We could have all we want and still find something lacking in ourselves or life.
This Cancer full moon is calling us back to ourselves, back to our Soul. Come home and rest she whispers. Cancer is the sign of home and heart. Spend time at home three days before and after the full moon if you can. It's a great time to feather your nest. Curl up in blankets. Quality time at home and with your beloveds feels magical now. Use the lovely full moon ritual below to make this moon phase super magical and special.
The original astrological animal of Cancer was a turtle. Take it slow. Quiet time now helps to hear what is going on inside. We can feel our emotions. This moon may keep you up at night. She may leave you reckless and wanting, or angry and depressed. Riding the wave of Cancerian emotions is possible. Let that be ok. Lean on the security and comforts of home.
Nurture yourself. Make yourself a priority. During this moon phase you might feel the need to love and nurture others, and express your love but please don't forget you. The eye in the moon above symbolizes our third eye, or intuitive eye. It is in between our human eyes and sees the truth of ultimately what is right for us. It sees the truth of everything really.
What emotions have you been running away from? What emotions are running you? Full moons like this one are a chance to sit with ourselves and how we feel. If you have been feeling anxious or sad, ask yourself why? A few layers underneath lies the root of that feeling. What can you do to create feelings of calmness and security? What calms you? Who calms you? Who is really supportive of you? Who gets you? Who is your kindred? The truth streamlines how you spend your time, on what and with who. The truth helps you to see.
☽ Freedom
2017 has the mark of freedom, a Number One Year. It's momentum is finally afoot shown by a lovely maiden just about to release a white dove to fly freely. Please don't beat yourself up if you created resolutions or have not done what you intended. I repeat DO NOT beat yourself up. Choose one thing if you must. If I could recommend just one thing for you, it would be to come home to yourself. To take care of yourself and BE at the center of your life. Take your cues from the inside. Follow your hunches. This is about holistic change and what really matters.
The energy of this year is about being present in the moment and creating. It's also about what we are being called to do. This could feel like a mission. You may even feel divinely led. Or it could feel like yes! I have always wanted to do that! Last year I started visiting animal shelters and donating food and supplies. I love spending time with the adoptees, playing and cuddling with them. This brings my heart great joy. I created an Animal Advocate page to share petitions for animal welfare and I donate regularly. I feel deep inside it is part of what I am supposed to be doing while I am down here this time. January is ruled by Capricorn highlighting answering the call of our lives.
Go for it now if having that degree, moving or getting that raise is what you really want. Do what you have to do and take some steps. Reading motivational books is great but it won't do your workouts for you. And Yes.Your mind will fight back. We are wired as humans to prefer what is familiar and known. This means you cannot beat yourself up. Your mind wants what it already knows. This is safe. This is good. We did this for protection and survival as a species. Do something more and it will feel familiar and right.
We want to live an amazing life and be happy. We want to be inspired. We want love, passionate love, family love and strong friendships. We want to feel like life matters. La Luna, our beautiful Cancer moon can take us there, to being in touch with something deeper. There is freedom in letting the soul and heart lead, and enjoying the ride. Take your time. Connect to your intuition. Make yourself a priority to create communication between your heart and mind. Do we have to know what is going to happen minute by minute? Or do we want to have an amazing experience?
☽ Protection
Ocean waters may bring waves of emotions but we are protected. These are big waves. People may show their true colors now. It's a blessing in disguise. We may see something we don't like about ourselves during this moon. That too is a blessing to embrace. An extra project you took on may not work out to be profitable because you are already spread too thin. Take time to receive guidance from your inner voice on how to move forward using Divine Feminine energy rather than pushing through with masculine energy.
Full moons are "the" time to forgive. Maybe you feel like you have forgiven but still feel conflicted in your heart. The heart does its work but it can take time. If there is anything to get over or get past, talk to someone who can help you with that. Find a trusted friend who will listen but give you good advice you will take. See a therapist or get an intuitive reading.
Cancer Full Moon Ritual
* Open all the windows.
* Clean and mop the floors with water. (Cancerian element)
* Clean the heart of your home. Get rid of things like pictures and knick knacks that you don't want to have around anymore.
* Light incense. Make a list of what you want to release for the full moon and who you want to forgive. Bury it or tear it up in pieces. Give it to the ocean, a river or down your toilet.
* Use crystals from the Cancer Mystical Guide Above. Put them out as well as flowers and things that beautify your home.
