Tag: Full Moon In Cancer: Mercury Retrograde; The Divine Feminine

Happy Full Moon in Cancer! This Full Moon at approximately 16 degrees of Cancer becomes exact at 6:07 PM New York time (23:07 GMT) on Friday, January 6. Cancer is the sign of the Divine Feminine, and the ruler of the 4th House—the House of Home. It is ruled by the moon—the celestial body that is in charge of emotions, the tides, and menses. It is a cardinal water sign, being the sign that initiates summer. Cancer’s glyph is a crab. The crab represents the home, safety, and the womb. The crab is naturally introverted—it carries its home to retreat to, its shell, with it at all times. During this Cancer Full Moon cycle, we strongly desire to be nurtured–and to nurture others. It is the time to connect with the feminine/lunar aspects of life in all ways, and with water.
