There is this sense of heightened emotions bubbling under this final Full Moon of the year.
It seems that whatever emotional weight we have carried may feel extra heavy, and in this heaviness, it may crash to the shore like a wave, drowning us in its weight.
Even though this sounds a bit intense, it is actually more cleansing and freeing.
There is this sense that whatever we have been carrying on our backs, whatever weight of the world we have felt on our shoulders, is now being washed away.
The Cancer Full Moon is shining a big bright light onto those who have been wearing a mask and pretending to be people that they are not.
This may be government officials, partners in relationships, friends or those we work with. Deception is revealed and we see the truth once and for all. This is a good time to take off the rose-colored glasses and see things in the light of truth.
The Cancer Full Moon reminds us that there is great potential as we move forward into the new year, and there is no need to take these unhealthy connections with us into 2021.
Cancer is ruled by the Moon, so the Moon shines in its element on this night, big and full for all of us to see. As the Moon returns to its favorite spot in our sky, it is able to express its powers to the fullest.
The Moon represents our emotions, but also what makes us feel safe and secure. It represents our ability to nurture ourselves and to take care of our emotional needs.
So much of our safety and security has been up for evaluation this year. It reminds us that we always have the power to create safety, comfort, love, and strength within ourselves.
The Cancer Full Moon ushers us to look and step within. This is a time to nurture ourselves and to the depths of our very souls.
This is a time to listen to the needs of our bodies, hearts, and our souls. There has been much attention, and even fear, placed on the state of our health this year, so we should all take a moment to honor, nourish, and look after our own well-being.
Flipping back to the start of the year, on January 10, 2020, we also had a Cancer Full Moon, however, this Full Moon was a Lunar Eclipse and its energy was much stronger.
It is interesting that we opened the year with a Cancer Full Moon, and we are now closing the year with a Cancer Full Moon. The difference between then and now however, is that things have softened, the energies are not as strong, there is this gentleness and a time of rest.
Chiron, the wounded healer, is also very active under this Full Moon. It supports this idea of allowing the murky water to settle, rather than trying to interfere or fix things.
Under this final Full Moon of 2020, Chiron works with the energies to remind us that we don’t need to prove ourselves to anyone.
We don’t need to hold the weight of the world on our shoulders. We don’t need to try… we can just be ♥
Where are we over-extending or overreaching in our lives Where are we burning the candle too fast or strong? Where are we all trying too hard?
These areas of our lives can indicate our insecurities. Where we care too much can indicate something deeper that may be worthwhile exploring under the illuminating light of the Moon.
The Cancer Full Moon is also in a harmonious aspect to Uranus, indicating that we may receive some rewards or conclusion for our efforts. Perhaps these come by way of a tangible gift, but perhaps they also come in an intangible way too.
Perhaps our true gift is realising how much we have achieved, how much we have grown, and how much love we have poured into the world.
We very often measure our productivity based on the concrete things we have achieved, but why not measure it on how much we have loved, shown gratitude, and practiced kindness.
The Cancer Full Moon will light the path for the new year. It calls for us to let go of all that is weighing us down and all that feels heavy.
It asks for us to let go of anything we no longer wish to bring with us into this new chapter we are about to begin. It calls for us to let it go, not through struggle or effort but through allowing ourselves to just be.
Let’s all allow the energy of the Cancer Full Moon to soothe us and free us. Allow the energies of the Moon to guide us to our inner home, to our hearts where all is safe, and all is well.
Love and Blessings as we close the year of 2020 ♥
