Or how to get clarity and implement soft but meaningful changes!

On January 13th, at 22.26 GMT, the Moon at 23° of Cancer will oppose the Sun at 23° of Capricron, giving us the first Full Moon of the year 2025, in the sign of the crab.

The Moon is thriving in her home sign Cancer and will shine to help us see clearly what no longer works in our life. In Cancer, the emphasis is definitely on what nurtures us (or doesn’t), where we feel at ease, at home and protected and what makes us feel uneasy or in survival mode. Anything going against our own comfort and protection will be highlighted so we can fix a situation, a pattern, an intuitive nudge…

Full Moons are related to releasing toxicity, shedding our old skin and sometimes even letting go of people. In Cancer, this process is soft yet powerful, obstacles are dissolving with the tides of emotions and we can feel lighter and ready for our next steps.

The Moon is in a trine to Saturn in Pisces, easing up the edges, facilitating improvement and pushing us gently to stay focussed and disciplined. Another trine between the Moon in Cancer and Neptune in Pisces is like a green light to dreams and visions: yes, another take on the world is possible, yes dreamers have powers and yes, imagination is what creates reality. Softness doesn’t mean weakness and this could be the mantra of this Full Moon. A loose conjunction between the Moon and Mars (still retrograde) feels like we have the energy required to transform but it should be well channeled: let us not forget that any emotion is energy in motion so we’d better choose wisely!

Both the Sun and the Moon are well aspected to Uranus in Taurus and this is quite auspicious for anyone who wants to see clearly, experience a lightbulb moment or welcome change. Things are clicking, we are understanding some patterns, we are transforming and a inner revolution might be silent but it is potent nonetheless.

This Full Moon is internal, feminine and deeply transformative. It is about that soft power, that intuition, that trust in the language of the Universe and above all, about love. For as corny as it sounds, this is the only emotion that truly moves mountains, attracts miracles and heals any soul.

To love, care, respect and instinct, to wisdom and to a quiet yet strong magic, I wish you an enchanting Full Moon in Cancer 🤍🤍🤍

And a softness came from the starlight and filled me full to the bone. William Butler Yeats
