And for those with a Capricorn Sun, Asc or Moon it’s pretty potent too. If you have both Sun and Moon in both or either signs then very much so.
Last year I wrote about Bobby Kennedy with his Sun Capricorn with Moon in Cancer very close to the Full Moon degree of almost 5 degrees and look how far he has come since then!
With Jupiter moving into his Moon sign mid-year 2025, opposite to his Sun sign he should have a positive year ahead and very active.
I wonder how he is going right now however with the challenging Mars OOB and Rx transiting opposite to his Sun. This is or can be a place of enemies, some hidden some not in his case.
I KNOW many Capricorns with the Cancerian are struggling right now and I do feel for you all as I have Cap Ascendant and Cancerian Desc therefore, so much is happening in my 1st and 7th houses. I will be pleased when 23rd February arrives with Mars turns and more so when he passes on into Leo in April.
I’m thinking many of we Capricorn and Cancerian types need to be on our toes and ready for anything at this time, most importantly to find a quiet centre within.
This Full Moon is the generally strongest of the year because it is ruled by the Moon… So it’s always powerful and it is a huge turning point for families, domestic matters, and the public in general, people and their security needs and all things that enclose and protect, whether body parts or public services etc…
It covers a lot of ground on emotional and physical/practical levels, financial too.
Of course this sign has been known to overprotect as well and this happens near this Full Moon more often than not. People get a little twitchy about their security zones.
Near this one I seem to be more than the usual protective of my security zones as I am currently without a home for two more weeks spending a month away from my own place while renovations take place.
It’s a time when family become more important or more annoying as well and that can be for all of us.
BUT it IS a very healing Moon too and for many it will bring a crisis of consciousness and MUCH healing within and without especially those with both signs strong but for the collective as well.
With Mars running rampant now in the people sign of Cancer as well this Full Moon is doubly potent for the entirely planet and its population.
People have been feeling a bit jittery to say the least as it is, and out of their comfort zones and now many are homeless as we have seen the devastation from massive fires on the lead up to this
Moon since Mars has gone OOB as if being Rx wasn’t enough.
The Moon is way OOB as well so it’s a pretty volatile time for many.
The Perigee happened on the the 8th January which added to the wild weather including winds during the Los Angeles Wildfires.
These Santa Ana winds are dry, powerful winds that blow down the mountains toward the Southern California coast about ten times a year typically occurring from fall into January.
When conditions are dry, as they are right now, these winds can become a severe fire hazard.
These extreme planetary and Perigee Moon events have added to this although they have been happening for years as have the natural bush fires in Australia which is nature’s way of propagating the bush.
Some think the Fires have been deliberately lit and it’s interesting to me that fire often happens with a Cancerian influence for some reason. Mars out of control could indeed add more fire with human interference in this case. It is a fire/water effect and the heat and out of control influence of the fiery Mars is a factor.
The Full Moon will fall at 23 degrees 59 so we can say 24 degrees Cancer. It is exact late night of the 14th in NZ and Aust so will be on the same date everywhere in the world pretty much with Hawaii just scraping in there being over 20 hours behind just over pacific date line.
The lead up is usually the strongest with energies so the usual aches and pains might have come out for many of us and mood changes- emotional explosions- hurt feelings, more sensitivity, sadness and victims states for many, real or imagined from the past, more impatience on the roads too at this time of year, more “domestics” for the co-dependents or dysfunctional folk (and who of us isn’t, one way or another).
This is a turning point for Cancerian type people to see the world through different eyes and get back on top of their game if they have faltered lately and use their tremendous people power, humour and creativity to their best advantage as we move more into this new world energy coming fast with all its challenges and new technology.
This year we can add chaos to this via Mars in Cancer but there is so much newness to embrace whatever form it comes in.
AND this is all something we can all work with even if there is a little fear from the still negative media outlets that are designed to keep us living in fear and under the control of those in power. I do believe this is finally- this year, on the way out.
We can feel gratitude for that despite the huge division still in our lives.
Certain subjects now are avoided to prevent further division at least! There IS more tolerance but there is also a changing of beliefs and a suspicion that not all news is truth or at the least it is coloured heavily by actual Gov agendas come from the same source.
More about this is being revealing as people look further for answers and have their own lightbulb moments. This will be more so as planets change signs this year with the finale of Uranus moving to Gemini in July when media changes again to an even more modern system and there is an added element that could even come directly from the stars, not to mention more of the telepathy technology some of you may have already noticed on your phones as its real and it exists, has for years in fact, for our physical brains are like a computer, a receiver and transmitter of information with the true intellect being in the spirit body.
This will become well known in the years ahead of this.
Before I wander too far down forbidden pathways due to one of my more powerful Full Moons of the year, I am reminded that we are still in a very dangerous times for a week or more, so will mention that today as I write this – the day before the Full Moon, Mars is trine to Neptune talking of fire and water, 27 degrees Cancer and Pisces which hopefully will mean rain or more water to fight those fires! Happening at 27 degrees.
The Sun is trining Uranus 23 degrees Capricorn and Taurus. These are positive aspects to carry through to the Full Moon so the turning point is very much for the better The elements appear to be turning since the Nodes have changed signs in their fated way , to Pisces/Virgo helping to put out the fire of the strong Aries energies from last April 2024,
Venus in Pisces is working her magic.
The day after the Full Moon has Mercury square to Jupiter so hopefully all we can expect is the usual exaggeration of the media for any negatives they can find except the select few outlets that actually want to help people remain calm and centred with an encouraging word.
Jupiter/Mercury can also bring good news.
I did mention in my last article that Mars may have his final say however two days later so let’s all take care of ourselves while we mentally re-direct the more competitive or aggressive side of said planet and transform it to courage and positive drive/ energy for the right action with “right motive”.
Take care out there people! And “love thy neighbour as thyself”, to quote a book I am about to dive into to decipher this period of “Revelations” we have been navigating for quite some time now with all its fire and dramatic events that match these times we are living in.
