☾

It's been real. 

I've dedicated myself to producing these very intricate bodies of work every two weeks for you all – my premium community who trust me to dissect and deliver a beautifully packaged message about the cosmic forecast and how you can use it for your mind, body, soul self-care. In over two years, it has never taken me so long to craft one of these newsletters. I'm introducing this email this way, not to excuse myself because I am only a human instrument of divine gifts with real limitations and circumstances, but as a testament of how incredibly metamorphic the energy currently is around us. 

Yesterday's Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Cancer brought along more than just untamed emotions and weird interactions. It's here to welcome us into a portal that could literally change our very existence.

In my last email for the New Moon Eclipse in Capricorn on Christmas Day, I explained the importance of that moon's energy coming along to usher us back home to ourselves where we could take a factual look at our lives, our needs, and what was happening around us as a catalyst for change. If we applied that knowledge and set our intentions properly, this Full Moon Eclipse is presenting us with opportunities to release all that has already served it's purpose (or never did). 

If you didn't set any intentions for whatever reason and it feels as if life is still whirling around you, it's because that's what eclipses do. They bring abrupt endings and new beginnings. Pair that with a Full Moon and everything that needs to be removed, recalibrated, and realigned is being actively illuminated in the most extra sorts of ways.

This particular Full Moon Eclipse occurred in Cancer – the deeply intuitive, super emotional, wildly loyal zodiac that's also ruled by the Moon. If you've been extra sentimental, feeling like your heart made it's way onto your sleeve, and have just been feeling like curling up in a little ball at home alone or with the best humans in your life, there's no coincidence there. 

Cancer is a water sign guided by their emotions. This time might turn our attention to our home and family life, or how we feel at home within ourselves. You can either take to Cancer's dark side and self-pity your way into a personal hell, or you can use the heart-opening energy to express yourself vulnerably, be it to your journal, through a personal project, or to another person or group of people. Through it all, see yourself. Be with yourself. Make self-care a priority. 

If the only reason why you've had relationships on your mind is because your family and home dynamics are being shaken up, don't take anything personally. Remember, we're all coping with the same energy, some better than others. The key right now is to approach everything and everyone with empathy and compassion. Just by watching the news or taking a look around you, you'd know that the world needs our love more than ever right now.

With that said, let's talk about the rest of the cosmos and how they're coming for everything that needs to be dealt with. This Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is opposing the Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, which are all gathered in Capricorn. Why do we care? Because on January 12, Saturn and Pluto will create a conjunction that forces us to do the work like never before. A conjunction is just a fancy way of saying that both planets will align in Capricorn at 22 degrees for the first time in over 30 years. (FYI, 22 is also a very significant number symbolizing precision and balance as a master builder.)

Saturn, who rules Capricorn, has a cold, strict reputation, while Pluto is all about death and rebirth. To make a long shpeel as short and as useful as possible, they're coming to destroy and rebuild. 

The Full Moon in Cancer, the lunar eclipse, all of the planets aligning in Capricorn, the zodiac of discipline, order, and control, are all divinely orchestrating an opportunity for us to make our wildest dreams of healing and security come true. We're being offered all of the darkness that's trying to cement itself in our lives as I write this so that we can see it, acknowledge the part it's playing in our growth, and do the work necessary so that you can change the course of your own life. Let me reiterate: this is a defining moment, for us, for society, for the entire world. We have to see things for what they are and make moves to expedite our healing or continue being tormented by our own lack of awareness. 

Easier typed in a beautiful newsletter than done? Absolutely. But this is not the time to take Cancer energy to keep cozy in stagnancy and voicelessness. This is the time to speak up. To act. To shift. To move. To remove. To dismantle. To mother ourselves and the world like only Cancer would so that we can finally put our foot forward. It doesn't have be our best foot, not yet, but a foot is enough. Feed yourself the time, energy and nourishment you need to remember your power during this portion of your journey, lean in on the people, resources, and tools that feel best right now, and do whatever you need to do to be one with your growth. 

A personal note: I hope this email makes you feel the same way I felt birthing it. Sending you so much love on this moment in your journey. Send me a note if you must.

1. What is happening in my life right now? (Make a list and be specific.)
    
2. What ways are the things going on in my life contributing to my growth and development?
    
3. How can I mother my current self into my highest self? What boundaries am I lacking? What walls can I dismantle?

If you want to release with a Full Moon Ritual, you have until Monday, January 13 at 2:21 PM EST | 11:21 AM PST to use the most potent energy. 

• "All of us, no matter our sign, are going to feel the Cancerian energies raining down hard under this Eclipse. What adds to all of this energy is that the Sun, along with four other planets will be in Capricorn, forming what is known as a stellium. This Capricorn stellium will try to reign in Cancer’s watery, emotional sensitivity, but this may only result in making things worse, not better! Cancer needs to have its moment, and it’s not going to let thoughtful, logical, practical Capricorn rain on its parade! Cancer is coming out of its shell to remind us of its full power, and we are all going to get a taste under this potent Lunar Eclipse."
  
  "Cancer rules over the heart chakra as well, which means we may feel the boundaries around our heart cracking wide open, which can be both beautiful and painful at the same time." – Forever Conscious
   
• "This is a time where we are learning to re-parent ourselves. Like astrologer Timothy Halloran so beautifully expressed, we are developing “new forms, new networks of internal support that allow us to be initiated into newfound levels of authority.” He talks about summoning that “maternal security” for our own selves, and encourages us to address our inner child with words of  support." – Mystic Mamma
   
• "This could be a time of agitation, restlessness and irritability, much of it around your own process and much of it around what you experience out there in the world. Those around you (including children and pets) could act out. Don’t take it personally and practice compassion and patience around situations that you cannot resolve, especially for someone else."
  
  "If you have not focused on your intentions for the year, knowing what you want and where you are going, this is the time to do it. If not now, when?"
  
  "Staying grounded and clear in your own truth and being clear about how you wish to feel moving into your own future gives the quantum field something to organize and bring into manifestation. There is a reset needed, both personally and on the planet and this is the best time frame (this year) to focus on what that is." – The Power Path 

• "Heightened sensitivity and empathy. Feeling protective, perhaps defensive. Desire to hide, need for emotional security." 
  
  "At those times when we feel powerless to control the outer world, we can always choose to control our own energy field. When we do this, we add much-needed, higher-frequency energies to the collective."
  
  "Self-care is vital. These planetary energies are not just "out there" somewhere, causing events. They are interacting with our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies. On mental and emotional levels, too, we need to take breaks." – NorthPoint Journal
   
• "To take better care of ourselves, we need to examine the underlying needs we are trying to meet in a rebellious way…often to avoid being like our mothers in an effort to assert our own identity. So the more we can accept our mother’s shadow also lives in us, the less we will overcompensate at a risk to ourselves." – The Moon Woman
   
• "With the North Node also traveling in Cancer, we have an idea that whatever is revealed now is for our soul’s growth. As Cancer is concerned with security, home, family, roots and domestic issues, these are the matters that we are most concerned with during this period."
  
  "It’s about attending to matters at home without abdicating our outer world responsibilities. It’s about finding a good work/life balance. It’s about dealing with problems in an adult way rather than sinking into a bad mood because life isn’t going our way. It’s about giving love and support to each other so that we can deal with our fears together rather than alone." – LUA Astrology
