Welcome to the last full moon for 2018. What. A. Year.
Tonight’s full moon is in Cancer - Ruler of water and the moon.
Colours associated: light blue, white, silver, iridescent white.
Cancer is the cardinal water sign that brings us back home, to the family, to the origin story. Its waters are primordial. Holding space for emotions to rise, flood, and finally wash through us, a full moon in Cancer will always tenderize, and aim to purify, what it touches. Exposing feelings normally covered over by everyday life, this full moon draws to the surface what normally gets to scurry away from examination.
When we allow our feelings to exist, to inform us, and to teach us something that we had previously ignored, we are released from their grip. We are no longer being unconsciously driven by them. We are free to experience more of life as it is, more of ourselves with less burden, and more of our relationships with less projection.
Come this holiday, solstice, full moon season, give yourself the gift of tenderness and release. You can’t heal your family, but you can heal yourself as part of that family unit. You can’t erase the heartbreak of those no longer here, but you can live with the blessing of their memory in all you do. You can’t be the perfect child, parent, sibling, or cousin, but you can be the best you that’s possible in this moment.
