Full Moon [04 Cancer 58]
– December 27, 2023 (00:33 GMT)
A Full Moon in Cancer welcomed us into 2023 on January 6th and a Full Moon in Cancer says goodbye to 2023 on December 27th.
This is always a powerful Full Moon, so if your emotions are in full flow, look up to the Moon. The Moon’s sign of rulership is Cancer, where the planet linked to needs and nurturing can be caring and kind.
Traditionally, Full Moons are a time for celebration as the Full Moon is deemed an auspicious time for festivals. Emotions are heightened and the Full Moon lights up the night sky extending the hours outside of darkness. More time to play or work outside, less sleep.
Full Moon – Opposing Needs
This is a promising Full Moon to fall in the Christmas week. Cancer is the star sign linked to home and family, the ones you love, the places in life that offer you comfort. Some people may be playing happy families during this Full Moon. Although, as you’ll read later, that’s not likely to be the case for everyone – choose your company carefully.
A Full Moon reminds us of life’s polarities as the Sun and Moon directly oppose each other from opposite signs. You can either be pulled in different directions or find a way to bring opposing factors together so they complement one another.
In the lunar cycle, the Full Moon represents culmination, ripeness, fertility and the bright light of the Moon denotes clarity. It’s a powerful time to tap into the intuitive side of your nature as head and heart become one.
Cancer/Capricorn Axis
This Full Moon cuts across the Cancer/Capricorn axis of the zodiac which is about home (Cancer) and work (Capricorn). Therefore, a big part of this Full Moon is how you balance the work/life axis.
Plus, as this Full Moon falls close to the end of the year, you may be looking back on the year that’s gone and forward to the year that’s coming. What do you want more of and what do you want less of in 2024.
Where is the balance out and what are the values you’re choosing to bring into your life as you stand on the verge of a new year?
Lucky Jupiter
This Full Moon is definitely a time for celebration as both the Sun and the Moon connect to lucky Jupiter in earth sign Taurus on December 27th. The Sun represents vitality, heat and warmth and Jupiter expands what it touches.
This is one of the luckiest planetary combinations between the Sun and Jupiter, symbolising visionary plans, big goals, a search for meaning, and a connection with the divine. Look out for new opportunities coming your way, and notice when and where you can say yes to life.
With the Sun in Capricorn and Jupiter in Taurus, this combination feels fertile, practical and productive. Who’s playing the role of the benefactor or protector? The Sun-Jupiter connection is about making the best out of any situation, looking on the bright side and spreading optimism.
Some people may receive a gift or bonus, others may be made aware of the joys of home and family life. Plus, Jupiter is currently powerful as it’s stationing ready to turn direct on New Year’s Eve – an ideal symbol for celebration.
Mercury/Mars Conjunction
Emotions are likely to be in full flow during this Full Moon period. Plus, there’s another astrological reason why this is potentially a lively and invigorating time. This is because of a Mercury/Mars conjunction that falls 24 hours after the Full Moon.
Mercury rules communication and Mars rules action and both planets are in fire sign Sagittarius, linked to religion, beliefs and faith. This combination can be great for walking (Mars) your talk (Mercury) or doing (Mars) what you say you will (Mercury).
Yet, it’s fiery and argumentative and Mercury remains retrograde, a time of misunderstandings and potential mishaps. Plus, both planets are square Neptune during this Full Moon period, which means that alcohol could loosen tongues. Be aware of this and know that conversations which start lightly could quickly erupt into a heated debate or even a full-out row.
Here’s wishing you a celebratory Full Moon which brings you the best of the powerful astrology shining down on you. Choose your companions with care this week and actively decide which role you’re taking on.
