Since the Full Moon in Cancer on January 1, we have been experiencing what it feels like to navigate the new channels for processing emotions and expressing our feelings. To do this, we have been discovering how to locate and recognize these new channels and traverse them bravely, even though we have no way of knowing where we are going. We don’t know, because we have learned to step out of habitual patterns long enough to notice where they are. We do not have a map for the new consciousness we gained recently through the ongoing watershed moment that Stephanie Azaria has described in her daily Cosmic Consciousness blogs.

Here we are at the first Full Moon of 2018, one of two such moons for January. As we moved through the Sagittarius New Moon passage to now, we experienced the final hurrah of the clearing process that only the Sagittarius quality of consciousness brings. By “clearing process,” think of what it took to recognize, acknowledge, and reflect upon all that we wanted to let go in our lives. We were given assists through this process by the movements of Mercury, Ceres, Jupiter, Saturn, and Quaoar. As Stephanie Azaria described, December brought us truly to a watershed moment. Now we are at the Cancer Full Moon, which is the second of three “super” full moons in a row (the first was the Gemini Full Moon on December 3, and the last is on January 31). The Moon is typically 14% closer and 30% brighter during a super moon, making it hard to ignore. For our purposes, this is an amplification of everything that comes our way during the Full Moon. One of the cosmic consciousness symbols for Cancer is the river, and of course, the Moon is where Cancer is most at home.
