Foundation vs Traditions: Last Full Moon of 2023 Part 1 of 2

On December 26, at 7:33 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, the last full moon of the year will take place. The full moon will be in the sign of Cancer, which suggests a significant energetic release before the year's end.

With the sun just going into Capricorn, the Full moon is shining it’s glow on traditions which will take us down memory lane of what was imprinted on us as children. Who’s values were these anyway, is what we will ask ourselves.

The Zodiac Capricorn is affiliated with the father, structure, responsibility, and legacy, while the Zodiac Cancer is ruled by the moon and associated with the nurturing parts of our life - our mother, our home, and our lineage and foundation. 

The Cancer full moon will take us back to childhood memories of what was safe and what wasn’t. And it will stir up what we hold as traditions and ask us this season - is this how I really want to spend my holidays?
