🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
🌕 FULL MOON IN CANCER ♋️ (16º) 3:07 PM PT
The full moon in its home sign of Cancer invites us to tune into our divine feminine energy. This moon brings "mama bear" vibes, illuminating the places and people we can feel safe with. But even more so, this lunation asks us how we can feel more secure in our own skin. It's a reminder to take care of our bodies and treat ourselves like a nurturing mother would. We crave creature comforts and familiar foods. We'll feel more nostalgic and tender as well. The first full moon of the year could amplify the emotions we usually keep private, asking us to release anything we're still carrying from the last lunar cycle. It's safe to let go.

THE MOON:
♋️ MOON SEXTILE ♉️ NORTH NODE AND TRINE ♏️ SOUTH NODE (9º) 1:00 AM PT
The full moon makes positive connections to the North and South Nodes, allowing our emotions to be our compass for release and flow. The path ahead can become clearer when we take the time to feel.
♋️ MOON SQUARE ♈️ CHIRON (12º) 7:00 AM PT
Sensitivities are easily triggered when the moon squares Chiron on Friday morning. Old wounds could be reopened. The pain we experience today can show us how to better mother ourselves.
♋️ MOON SEXTILE ♉️ URANUS (15º) 1:00 PM PT
Energetic shifts happen when the moon connects with Uranus. We can lean into change and invite new perspectives. Chance encounters are possible too!
♋️ MOON OPPOSITE ♑️ MERCURY AND ♑️ SUN (16º-17º) 5:00 PM PT
The most polarizing moment of the day comes as the full moon opposes Mercury. With the sun and Mercury coming into a conjunction, major realizations are possible… but so are mood swings as we try to make sense of how we really feel. Our emotions contain data. Ask what they’re revealing.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
The first full moon of the year brings heightened emotions and amplified sensitivity. With la luna reaching her culminating point in her home sign of Cancer, we’re exploring themes of protection, motherhood, and divine feminine energy. Friday begins with a tense square between the moon and Chiron, triggering feelings of insecurity. Our wounds illuminate how we can better take care of ourselves. Just before the moon becomes full, a sextile to Uranus brings a shift in energy, inviting us to lean into change. As she reaches her peak, an opposition to Mercury can bring mood swings, but collecting our emotions as data can lead to big realizations and breakthroughs. As we experience our own tenderness today, this full moon asks us to find safety in our own bodies.
*Ritual tip: Water is a powerful tool for cleansing and release. Take a bath or add some essential oils to your shower. A cold plunge could act as a powerful purge as well.
