The evaluation of our efforts and the way towards a radical purging in our lives.
Practical responses motivated by emotional or nurturing intentions of life. The need to see results, to commit, to showcase our work, , to cultivate the structure for solid long-term goals through care and the creative dimension of who we are.
The Sun represents where we give and the Moon where we receive. The Moon is illuminated by the Sun in the phase of the Full Moon. There is something that emerges from the deeper emotional or creative self that wants to take care of, give birth to, protect, connect and give others something that is tangible and has form. The notion of recognition of what we have to offer will concern us, as is the relationship between giving and receiving that is most relevant and crucial to the core of our emotional and material world. With Cardinal Earth and Water, we focus on fertility and essence that is measured through result mainly through what is visible in the world we live in, the sense of belonging, continuity and the form and structure of things. Earth and Water are the heaviest of elements, and this resonates seriousness, emphasising the need to settle down and to synthesise experience by giving it direction. As with a tree, we nurture the roots and prune its branches to see it grow. In this Full Moon we are able to discern the problems and the results of those things that prevent us to grow the way we intended to. We may also have to set limits, cut down excess, exercise some serious “pruning” in order to sharpen forms and structures. The Full Moon illuminates the need to evaluate what is of worth so that we can follow by strengthening its root system in the following cycle. It is as if we are working on setting a capstone on a collaboration, a marriage, a deal, an undertaking, an effort, a project, a goal. Can we rise to the occasion? Are we on top of things?
Cancer promotes life, emotional security, and that sense of belonging; it looks after its “root system”. It is motivated by it. As a Water sign, it is a great synthesiser of emotion and experience and transforms it into life. The Sun in Cancer motivates the Moon in Capricorn to work, to do something practical and useful, to set a goal, or to cultivate structures and tools, test things out. It is a Full Moon with seriousness and substance that crystallizes something within us with conscience and realism. The basic need emphasised by this Full Moon is to manifest results, to give something of ours that is appreciated and recognised in the tangible world. Continue reading
