“The obstacles of your past can become the gateways that lead to new beginnings.” - Ralph Blum
On December 27, we will experience the last Full Moon of 2023 in Cancer, just as it was the first! Cancer, a Cardinal Water sign symbolized by the crab, is ruled by the Moon, intensifying the energy during this celestial event. This Full Moon signifies emotional leadership, harmonizing with the natural cycle of life. Similar to a crab's indirect movement, it doesn't follow a straight line. Full moons mark a period of completion and illumination. The sun's light shines directly across the sky, while the moon reflects its brightest light, allowing emotional insight to flow. Our bodies express where we've been. Meanwhile, the Sun, positioned opposite in the sky in Capricorn, sheds light on practicality and determination to succeed and manifest. This axis represents the polarity between feeling and doing, private and public, or home and work.
The Moon in Cancer 'feels the feelings' in the body. What advice does the sky offer for this Cancer Full Moon in 2023? This lunation is a significant reassurance that everything will be okay, regardless of whether we have achieved our goals so far. We find ourselves emotionally secure, grounded, possessing endurance, gratitude, and abundance. In the days leading up to Christmas, our desires may have overwhelmed us, leaving us a bit shocked and hesitant to express them. Now that the intensity has subsided, our minds have stopped racing, and our bodies can relax. It's a harmonious blend of expansion and discipline, effort and comfort.
As always, there are a couple of things to watch for. There's an urge for adventure, experimentation, and expressing in words the significant intentions we have. This is encouraged by the determination we feel, especially when we're in the midst of reconsidering old plans. However, we need to rein in our words a little, as we may not fully grasp the whole picture. We might not be able to follow through, or we might not be entirely serious about what we're saying or starting, getting carried away in the moment. There's a chance we might change our minds later. Therefore, the best use of this energy is to feel inspired, determined, abundant, and safe, while also maintaining caution with what we express verbally.
We observe the seeds we nurtured as we now truly feel it, Radiantly Alive!

“Their confidence becomes shattered in an instant because they don’t have an abundance mindset… When you have an abundance mindset and you get rejected, it’s ok. Because you tell yourself tomorrow ‘I will find 10 other jobs’ or ‘I will find 10 other new people’.” – Idris Elba
