Cancer Full Moon 2023

In this episode Venus & Vesta explain the Cancer Full Moon which will occur on the 6th of January 2023. Because Cancer is one of the water signs, big, emotional, watery outbursts or sentimental drivel (whatever way you want to look at it) are to be expected – not just personally, but in the family too. This sentimentality can either be really irritating or make you feel quite lonely. KEY TAKEAWAYS This Cancer Full Moon emphasises the domestic sphere. The full Moon is always opposite the Sun, which is in Capricorn – which is the commercial/corporate/business world, where you go out and succeed. Cancer is very much the opposite, it’s where the domestic world happens – family, food, security, caring, where you go when you’re ill. They are both opposite but very important parts of our lives. Mercury’s role is to dig deep in the corporate and government worlds and peel back some layers of information, digging deep into the data and the connections, into contacts, into big news and to find out and give us information to reconsider some of the stuff we’ve been told and analyse things a little deeper. For example, Elon Musk digging deep into the Twitter Files and exposing some incredible pieces of information. It really is worth seeing what he’s coming out with, none of the mainstream media is reporting on it yet. Cancer is saying: “Let’s bring it back to what’s important”, really bringing up our emotional values, our emotional sense of caring for one another and our understanding or what really is important; our emotional connections or putting emphasis on them while the business world is ticking away. We’re doing this for the love of our fellow man and to be with them. Cancer Full Moon is about the feminine and the mother, mother love and motherhood and why we’re feeling this big connection to our mothers and the need to be mothers and mother ourselves. It’s all going to come quite large with this full Moon, against this corporate ideal and the issues that are coming up. We’ll care more about why these are happening, how they might affect us and why we’ll feel more protective over our family and what is really happening and has been exposed by Mercury. While people’s emotional lives are coming to the fore, there is also this idea (with Cancer) of surrendering to what is, giving it its credence and wanting to explore and process all the facets of it, go back into detail to really nurture, help and look into it. We’re potentially looking at how we care for people (the NHS) who are sick and why they’re sick. The Cancer full Moon might bring out a lot of ideas around how we care for sick people and are we doing the right thing?  BEST MOMENTS ‘Most people have had a big break over the Christmas holidays and are getting ready to get back to work but, when they get there, they just want to go home.’‘The full Moon always has the most power. But, with Mercury in a big, powerful retrograde through Capricorn, it’s almost like we’re moving against this even more so, it’s even more pulling against the natural force of the Moon.’‘Twitter is so Mercurial.’‘How are they going to respect and honour and really give these nurses what they deserve? Hopefully, with this Cancer full Moon, the nurses are winning. Give them some more money.’ ABOUT THE HOST Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/venusandvesta/?hl=en   Website - https://www.venusandvesta.com  Ann-Louise Holland is a shamanic homoeopath, herbalist and astrologer.  She teaches astrology along with Steiner based anthroposophy, both of which are concerned with cultural events that bring about humanity's evolution and awareness to the soul's journey.  Venus & Vesta is a podcast about astrology for astrologers, monthly updates on the movements of the planets and asteroids, weekly detailed discussions, aligning the stars with what is happening in the world.
