Full Wolf Moon in Cancer ♋ Jan 6, 2023
artist: Susan Polston
Friday, Jan 6 @ 3.08 pm PST
The first full moon of 2023! The January full moon is called the Wolf Moon. The moon will rise at sunset, peak at midnight, and set at sunrise in all time zones.
Moon and sun hover between Cancer and Capricorn. These archetypes are all about putting down roots and getting settled in life. They gravitate toward relationships and environments which promise longevity and security (Capricorn) as well as the space and emotional safety required for true vulnerability and acceptance (Cancer). This full moon brings greater intimacy and understanding to our closest relationships. It’s a great time to spend at home with family.
Luna is right at home in Cancer, the constellation she rules. The crab and the moon are associated with femininity, matrilineal lines, family, and homeland. This full moon is about what makes us feel at home. It’s about (self) love and commitment (to self).
Capricorn Season is designed to help us cultivate discipline, focus, and clarity. Cancer can learn a lot from this. The Cancer-Capricorn polarity unites the heart and the logical, planning brain. Too much Capricorn makes us anxious about the future as well as our performance in the theater of society; too much Cancer makes us fearful and clingy. Focus on release, letting go; only a calm, peaceful heart may proceed.
Heads up: this full moon will sharply oppose Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn. It’s going to be a wild ride – expect the unexpected. Watch for mood swings anyway – Cancer’s affirmation is “I feel”!
