The Full Moon in Cancer ignites the deep emotions within us. Listen to your inner spirit and allow yourself time to hold space for your emotions. Rather than feeling defeated because you’re having trouble pushing through, be grateful for the additional energy swarming around you, and surrender to the emotional currents, let it all wash over you, revealing your truths.

This lunar phase is a potent time to let go of what is not serving you, and allowing openness of your spirit. Not only acknowledging how you feel but also clearing out the old, clearing out what doesn’t make you feel good. Cancer ruling the moon, creates an overflow of emotions but we are encouraged to release judgement and lean in with compassion for ourselves and others. This will provide a level of insight that is needed to  create alignment with authenticity, how we feel now and how we want to feel in the future.

Realigning will allow space for you to move at a higher vibration, removing the stagnant energy that creeps in and feels heavy on the spirit. Set things aside and take space for actual rest, let go of what no longer serves you. This Full Moon is here to guide you.

Reflection Prompt for Self-Care and Release

  • How do you feel right now? What emotions are coming up for you? Are these new emotions or do they feel familiar? What triggered these emotions?
  • What in your reality is serving you and what old programming is playing out in your mind that is not serving you best, or is making you feel bad for feeling deeply? What needs to be removed due to not being aligned with where and who you are now and where you are going?
  • Revisit your goals that were set for the new year. Why do you want to achieve these goals? How will those accomplishments create the life that you want to live? How will this make you feel in the future? Is this aligned with how you want to feel?
  • Be clear on the what and whys of your wants , make sure they are aligned with the life you want to live.

Self-Care Practices to Align with Cancer Energy

  • Free flow of consciousness: Write freely to uncover hidden truths or clarify your emotions. Let the pen flow without judgment.
  • Movement for Emotional Release & Grounding: Childs pose, Half-Pigeon Pose/Figure-four, Tree Pose, Easy Pose
  • Clear your Space: Can be a small drawer or a large closet. Whatever space moves you to clear out, listen…

As you bask in the light of this Full Moon, remember that from the depths of your emotions can emerge new light, new connections and can lead to transformative shifts. Trust in your ability to release and realign as you move forward. 🌕✨
