The Full Moon arrives in the sign of Capricorn at 11:52a PDT on Tuesday, July 3rd, 2012.
Since the Sun entered Cancer on June 21st, you’ve had the chance to look at your life in the context of nurturing. This Sun sign cycle has given you a chance to gain clarity about what you really need to feel emotionally nurtured, cared for and supported in your life.
In contrast to Cancer’s emotional nurturing and warmth, Capricorn is all about tangible results. It is goal-oriented, ambitious, and coolly disciplined in its approach to manifesting its desired results.
Yet, it is the Moon – Cancer’s ruling planetary body – achieving its full phase in this rather strict and focused sign of Capricorn. Therefore, this Full Moon in Capricorn represents what you want to be emotionally accountable for creating and establishing at this moment in your life.
Full Moon in Capricorn reminds you that you are responsible for choosing the environment that emotionally supports you and the pursuit and achievement of your goals and ambitions. You choose the relationships, the interactions, the associations, the energy – you choose the people and things to have around you that provide you with either support or sabotage of your goals and ambitions. You also choose how you respond to the environments of your creation. It is important for you to create and/or align yourself with environments and people who truly emotionally support and encourage you in your pursuit of your goals and dreams…and if you don’t like what you have around you or coming up within you, it is up to you to change it.
The Cancer-Capricorn axis brings awareness of how much your emotional foundation and well-being really does affect your ability to achieve and succeed in your life. When you have a strong emotional support structure behind or beside you, you know you have something or someone to catch you when you fall or to encourage you to get up when you are ready to sit down and let your life pass you by. Without that support, you may find yourself hiding from life, protecting yourself from possible hurt and/or failure, so afraid of the emotional pain of not achieving your goals that you may never even set out to try to achieve them in the first place.
This is not to say that everyone or everything that causes you emotional pain should be instantly disregarded or discarded from your life. In fact, it is just the opposite – pay attention to what hurts you emotionally right now and ask yourself why it hurts you so much. With Venus and Jupiter both in Gemini during this Full Moon cycle, the answers to ‘why’ can bring profound, positive, and possibly even profitable personal growth for you and your life.
One especially interesting detail about this Full Moon is that the New Moon that led into it was not in the current Sun sign cycle. The previous New Moon was a second appearance in Gemini. That has this Full Moon leading us right into a maturity of the Cancer-Capricorn axis energy – immediately into a focus on the results we want to receive and/or achieve through establishing and developing the emotional foundations of our lives. In a way, we will be putting the cart before the horse – getting clear about what we want to manifest in and for our lives, then creating the emotional environment to support us in bringing it into tangible reality.
There are two other planetary shifts that will have a influence upon this Full Moon cycle:
- The Moon makes a brief conjunction with Pluto in Capricorn before going completely full on Tuesday. This makes for a very interesting dynamic as Pluto brings a transformative (a.k.a. – powerful and sometimes destructive) energy to matters. This Full Moon comes in the wake of a rather profound event or revelation. Since Pluto is retrograde, it may be a revelation from within yourself rather than something affecting you from the outside world – certain recent events or a series of seemingly unrelated moments may suddenly reveal their common connection or collective reason for why they occurred. This revelation is likely to help you make choices about things that you have been indecisive about for quite a while now.
- Also, Mars enters Libra only about 6 hours before the Moon goes full (at 5:31a PDT). This is an interesting shift because it encourages us to take actions in regard to the relationships and partnerships in our lives. To have this influence happening just hours before the Full Moon definitely indicates a focus shift – once you recognize the changes you want to make within yourself, you then take the necessary actions to make changes outside of yourself.
A transformation of your emotional support structure is at hand. Embrace the opportunity to feel your emotions, recognize your inner Truth, make choices, and take actions to make sure you have the support structure in place to become all you want to and strive to be in your life.
Make the most of this Full Moon in Capricorn cycle. It is bound to be profound!
