Happy Full Moon in Capricorn!

Full Moons gift us opportunities to check in with ourselves. When we release what is no longer serving, we call in alignment with our present and future selves. Full Moons are a beautiful space of closing doors so that we can open new ones. Just like the Death card in the Tarot deck, every time something in our life dies, a new birth occurs. This death may be big or small - a death to a habit, pattern, job, relationship – whatever it is, anytime we let go, we create space for something new to come into our orbit.

This full moon occurs in earthy Capricorn, ruled by Saturn. The tenth sign of the zodiac, it is a sign all about structure, loyalty, intelligence, and practicality. Capricorn is Cancer’s sister sign - the yin to each other’s yang. This full moon in Capricorn invites us to evaluate our responsibility and control while in playful, summer mode. Cancer is the first sign of the season of our inner child – which pairs well to keep us grounded with Capricorn’s energy.

Cancer is an emotional water sign – known for being big lovers, feeling their feelings, and sometimes having high highs and low lows. At times, Capricorn can be almost too structured and practical. How can you combine both of these energies with each other to make aligned action to continue living your dream life?

Is there something that you need to release when it comes to structure, control, or responsibility? Lean into your Cancer feelings to allow yourself to let go. When we release our grip on controlling every single thing in our lives – we allow space for more alignment to come into our sphere. Sometimes the unexpected and the unplanned is what we need most.

Summer is a season of play. It’s a time of nurturing our inner child, of sunshine, of treats, of laughter with friends. It is a time of joy and allowing ourselves to have fun. What can we release so that we can call in more pleasure and joy? Life is about the little moments. We heal so that we can enjoy life. We heal so that we can feel happiness, pleasure, and joy. 

It is important to have balance in our lives. Control is also important - but everything in moderation. And flexibility always provides us with opportunity that we weren’t expecting.

ALIGNED ACTION

Think of your perfect summer morning routine for the next couple of months. How would you like to start your day? Is it with ten minutes of meditation while still laying in bed, listening to soft music? Is it with a morning walk? Do you journal, work out? What do you eat? What do you drink? What do you listen to? Paint the perfect morning routine, starting with thoughts of gratitude. Think about what you want to fill your brain with right away. What’s stopping you from doing all of this tomorrow? You have the choice. It’s powerful to start the morning with happiness and peace. Start taking aligned action to truly start your day on the right foot.
