This energy is strongest for those with Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn placements at or around the 25 - 29th degrees. Look to your house of Cancer for more insights on how the January 2022 Full Moon will impact you. 

What is a Full Moon?

The Full Moon phase is a time of completion and intensity. This phase exposes the efforts of our intentions and how others (the universe) receives them. For many, the Full Moon phase can represent a heightened point of tension and restlessness. The Full Moon is the perfect time to expect answers and clarity. It’s important to understand that the Full Moon is an opposition formed with the Sun. Many will feel start this cycle feeling excited, but by the end will feel exhausted and worn out. Use this period to observe how your New Moon intentions are coming to light. Use the New Moon as a period of acceptance and emotional release.

2022 Cancer Wolf Full Moon

The First Full Moon of 2022 will be opposite the Sun, Venus Retrograde, and Pluto. Expect deeply buried emotions, feelings, and experiences to come back to the surface. This is not the Full Moon for lavish parties and celebrations. In fact, cancel any unnecessary activities and socialization — even if YOU are in a pleasant mood, others probably aren’t at their best right now, and nobody needs someone throwing off your good vibes.

Occurring in water sign Cancer, this Full Moon is perfect for eating comfort food, drinking soothing beverages, pampering your body, taking warm showers, and if possible, going for a swim. A good weekend to get in the garden and spend time with living things. If you like flowers, play with flowers. Overall, this is a sensual yet deeply purging and subconscious time, so be extra gentle with yourself and let it all bubble up.

Please note: issues or matters with Mother, women, and children are highlighted.
