Today, the moon arrives in its Full position placed comfortably within the nurturing sign of Cancer. The Moon is the ruling planet for this water sign, and during the Full Moon, Cancer finds great emotional security, guidance, and FULFILLMENT when working through any sensitive issues. There is a feeling of an emotional burden that has been released. A sense of calmness washes over you with a deepening connection to your inner ‘Self.
The “Wolf Moon” represents the first Full Moon of a New Year. There are varying cultural interpretations of the Wolf Moon. One interpretation is that January is the breeding month for wolves. During this time, wolves are frequently heard howling and traveling in packs to set their territory and to communicate with other wolves. Known for their loyalty and protection of their own the Wolf Moon is a great time to reestablish connections with those close to you. Also, the wolf’s “traditional connection” to lunar energy is used to discover the “unseen” and sense potential dangers. It’s a time to follow your intuition and resources when setting definite goals.
Fridays are ruled by the feminine energy of the planet Venus, and today Venus is placed in the air sign of Aquarius. A day that we are drawn to the “out of the ordinary” in life. With a sense of liberation and individuality being expressed at this time.
When planets and astrological signs move into the various monthly moon phases, their energy can powerfully affect us at many levels. The moon’s energy becomes exemplified when positioned in your birth Moon sign. If your sun sign is placed in a moon’s astrological position you will feel the results of this energy but not as much to the degree when placed in your moon sign.
Take the time to invest in the positive awakening aspects of the Full Moon’s energy in Cancer. For many, life may feel less overwhelming and more centered during this time.
