Generally a Full Moon in Cancer is a great reminder of personal considerations, like taking care of your body and the way you feel, especially with creature comforts, good food, relaxation and calming environments.
Considering it’s a Full Moon we can also expect an increase of emotional reactions at this time. Cancer is considered to be sensitive inside, and puts on a strong shell for protection.
The holidays can be a really challenging, difficult, emotional time for a lot of people, especially those that are lonely and having difficulty in life, particularly with money matters and emotional issues with people. The Full Moon in Cancer can make emotional challenges more intense for some, but for others it can be a time that wakes you up to realizing how important certain relationships are in your life.
With this Full Moon, your feelings will be a strong indicator making it clear what and who you really do or don’t care about.
Cancer is also indicative of one’s roots, ancestry and emotional bonds, especially family, pets and home and in particular the mother figure. This is a good time to get closer to people that matter, like with positive trips down memory lane for that nostalgic feeling.
There can also be a highly protective and defensive quality to the Full Moon in Cancer. Like the crab, a hard outer shell can protect the soft inner core. Whether it is defending your feelings, your body, your home, your environment or your country and homeland, a sense of wanting personal security and protection of your inner world is enhanced with this Full Moon.
