Dear friends, chères amies:
How fitting that we close out this gruelling year with a Full Moon in Cancer, the gentlest sign of the entire Zodiac. As I sit down to write this post, Luna is rising outside my window, like a gigantic, gleaming pearl in the sky, casting a delightful spell on my soul. I was born with the Moon in Cancer and love this energy! This Full Moon is always important because the Moon is in her home sign of Cancer. I want to send this post out this evening and so it will be short and sweet. Allow yourself to get cozy and enjoy this read.
The Full Moon in Cancer lies opposite the Sun in Capricorn, symbolizing among many things, the balance between the divine Masculine and the divine Feminine. The Winter Solstice always connects us to the Summer Solstice. It is important to remember that our friends in the southern hemisphere are celebrating the longest days of the year at this time. I love the Solstices and Equinoxes for many reasons, but I especially love how these sacred points in time and space recalibrate and reconnect humanity so profoundly.
The Capricorn vibration was extremely strong in the collective psyche since 2018, but peaked in 2020, when Saturn, Pluto and Jupiter all formed conjunctions in the sign of the Sea-Goat and stayed together most of the year. We are finally leaving a period of time that was very dense, contractive, heavy and painful; however, it also pushed masses of people to make some of the greatest evolutionary leaps we have ever experienced! On a personal level, I worked on some important projects this past year, and although I feel somewhat tired from it all, I feel that I have grown immensely. As we cross the bridge between 2020 and 2021, we can take some time to pause, put our hands on the railing, take in the view, and reflect on everything that we have experienced in the last 12 months.
This Cancer Full Moon is casting the perfect light in which we can do this inner reflection. Cancer invites us to create a deep, yet soft and safe, nurturing space that we can call home, wherever we happen to be. Home is where we feel safe, vulnerable, supported, loved and nourished. Cancer also represents a sense of family, connection and community. 2020 has taught us so many lessons! We have learned to connect tenderly with close friends and family despite physical distancing. Communication technology has allowed us to nurture our connections with our support bubbles, soul tribe and spiritual family around the world. What a surprising and beautiful gift! I have to admit that I love good science fiction movies but since we are moving into more Aquarius energy I am relating more and more to the imagery of space vessels able to communicate with other vessels and planets across the galaxy. I also feel like we are expanding our ability to communicate psychically, telepathically, and from the heart, which radiates the strongest field of energy in the human body.
This Full Moon is also a powerful opportunity to release a gargantuan amount of ancient emotional baggage stored in our bodies. Like Scorpio and Pisces, the cosmic Crab is a super sensitive, tender and vulnerable energy that feels emotion at an incredibly deep level. This Cancer Full Moon can greatly assist us in recognizing, thanking and then purging these old traumas. I have recently worked with an intuitive healer and had a BodyTalk session through which I learned that a lot of childhood and past life issues came up that still needed to be released. I was amazed to witness how much old conditioning was still at the root of many physical issues. I invite everyone to consult with complementary healing practitioners who can offer some invaluable insights into our physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual wellness.
I will conclude with a healing visual imagery that came to me a couple of days ago that can help us to integrate the powerful lessons, growth and wisdom of 2020 that is being birthed in our awareness. Imagine that you are standing under the most exquisite waterfall at the base of a majestic mountain stream. Visualize the most pristine and refreshing water washing over you and cleansing you, purifying and revitalizing every molecule of your being. Take many deep breaths and feel all the heaviness, worries and doubts fall away and flow into into the ocean nearby. Take your time and allow yourself to surrender to this flow and bathe in its divine purity. When you are ready, step onto the beach and join the circle of humanity holding hands and joining hearts in a line that encircles the globe. Let’s give the entire planet Earth the most powerful love we can imagine! Let’s do this everyday!
Thank you so, so much for joining me today in this experience. In writing that last paragraph, I had my hands on my heart and sobbed. I feel so much lighter and connected to all of you in this soul family. Wishing all of you a magical New Year filled with the promise of billions of possibilities! If you resonate with this post, I lovingly invite you to consider becoming a member of my Patreon community and receive deeper insights as we explore the astrology and the magic of a new Earth in 2021.
Cosmic blessings,
