Or how to nurture our sense of belonging!

On December 27th, at 00:32 GMT, the Sun at 4° of Capricorn will oppose the Moon at 4° of Cancer, gifting us a beautiful Full Moon in Cancer.

The Moon is in its home sign in emotional and nurturing Cancer and its energy will be felt quite strongly for everybody. Feelings are likely to be intensified and with the festive season and the family reunions, emotions may run high.

A Full Moon is always shining bright on what we need to see clearly and perhaps to let go of for our highest good. In Cancer, the highlight is definitely on home and family matters, our roots and ancestry and of course all the dysfunctional patterns that may come with this package! Under this Full Moon, we are invited to reflect on our sense of belonging and to learn to nurture aspects of it that make us feel great and empowered while giving up on toxicity. Belonging doesn’t mean sacrifice, people pleasing or control, but rather the comfort of knowing we have a place in this world and that we matter.

The Sun in Capricorn seems like a thread of wisdom in the emotional tides of the Cancerian Moon. Family, relationships or comfort require patience and dedication. The Sea Goat reminds us to stay grounded and take small steps towards our dream home, family and relationships life. The trine between the Sun in Capricorn and Jupiter in Taurus helps us find comfort with ease and love more than effort and hard work. And the sextile between the Sun and Saturn in Pisces acts like a memo: we know how it feels like when we don’t set healthy boundaries, so let us work on that and everything will be in the flow! The trine between the Moon in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces reinforces that idea that boundaries are physical, energetic, mental and emotional. If a situation is too much to handle, take a break and retreat. Saturn in Pisces is here to make us find tools that work for our own situation/environment or even personality.

The emphasis of this Full Moon in clearly on emotions and how we can nurture ourselves and take care of our feelings. Neptune in Pisces is square Mercury and Mars both in Sagittarius so our thoughts and actions may not reflect properly how we feel about something. There is a strong message here to do the internal work first, the rest will follow later!

It might be tense to navigate these energies while being in the middle of the festive season but it is also a great opportunity to focus on the positive in our lives and to nurture good feeling thoughts and situations.

Wishing you all a beautiful Full Moon and sending light and loving energy to everyone in this time and space reality 🌠🤍🎆

Love yourself first, and everything else falls in line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.
