Cancer Full Moon- Jan 17, 2022

According to the tropical zodiac, there is a Full Moon at 27º Cancer on January 17, 2022. 

Cancer is cardinal water. That means this sign is responsible for creating and initiating emotion and intuition. It represents the source of life or primordial waters. It is the essence of mother’s milk and amniotic fluid. Cancer energy is associated with motherhood, home, and our need to love and nurture. It is the emotional response, sentimentality, nostalgia, and the instinct to protect and care for what is vulnerable.

The Moon itself rules this sign, which makes the archetypal Cancer energy in the air extra potent. As this lunation perfects, it will be sitting out of bounds north of the ecliptic plane. This feature adds contrarianism to the mix. In addition, the planet Uranus stations direct the day after. That means Uranus is sitting at its slowest speed for this Full Moon only emphasizing themes of liberation, chaos, and rebellion.

Although Full Moons affect everyone, they can affect some more than others. If you have placements near 27º Cancer or the Moon is your chart ruler or timelord this year, you will likely feel this energy more than others.

This lunation corresponds to the Cancer New Moon that occurred six months ago on July 9, 2021. The seeds of intention planted at that time should now be in full bloom. Think of the ways your life has changed since then. Is there an area of your life that has manifested for better or for worse? Check your birth chart to see which houses hold Cancer and Capricorn. The themes associated with the houses on that axis are likely playing a special role in your life right now. It’s usually the most obvious thing. The effects of this Full Moon will wind down over the next six months until the corresponding New Moon in Cancer starts a new cycle on June 28, 2022.
