Hour of the Wolf: Wolf Full Moon in Cancer


 Hour of the Wolf: Wolf Full Moon in Cancer

Welcome to the first Full Moon of 2025

Today begins the 3 day lunar cycle in the Sign of Cancer(Jan 13-16). Known as a Wolf moon, it gets its name from the Native Americans noting that during the winter, wolves would howl outside their villages.  


The Moon is concerned with needs like food, security, and emotional support.  As the planet responsible for mothering, emotional balance and the home environment, its chief focus is the nature and care of ones being and any offspring.

 

The Moon, considered a planet for astrological purposes, will be in its Rulership. In astrology, when a planet moves through a sign it influences or its “Rulership”, it strengthens the effects that one encounters with that sign. With the Moon’s entry into Cancer, you may require more food, have a stronger need to be in a comfortable, familiar environment or seek avoidance of demanding emotional situations.


Cancers are the nurturers and caregivers of the Zodiac. A highly intuitive sign, Cancers can be very psychic and prescient. At their best, Cancers are adaptive, dependable and caring. At their worse, they are moody, smothering and possessive.


 This Cancer Full Moon would be a good time for reexamine existing plans and preparations for oneself and one’s family. Because the Moon is in its Rulership, this would be an ideal time to seek consultation through divinations or psychic readings as such energies being greatly enhanced. The only caveat is the intensity of this transit and the current retrograde make such efforts emotional and intensive so be sure you are ready for such insights.

 

You are urged to deal with this transit by engaging in calming, grounding activities, striving for patience and centering.  Full moons lend their waxing energies to endeavors and activities, making this a good times to reevaluate businesses proposals, projects and emotional commitments. Because of the doubling effect of the Moon, strive for detachment and flexibility in such matters. The winter season may limit the initial success of some activities, so choose you commitments wisely. 

Cancer, it might be helpful, at this time, to dwell upon some of the things you hope to accomplish this year, using this intuition and feelings to help determine which paths will best serve you.  Let the transit aid you in determining what matters most. 

 Capricorn, the demands of this Moon will ask you to explore your feelings with regards to your needs.  What ambitions, efforts and requirement will best serve you and which will not? Let the next two days give an indication of what you should work upon into the days ahead. 

Libra and Aries, addressing some matter you’ve overlooked or neglected may play an important part of the next few weeks. As you seek to discern those particular concerns, secure that which strengthens and reinforces you. 


 As the Wolf Full Moon treads winters pathways, seek and find that which feeds you. In the compass of this Cancer Full moon, may all you require be secured and preserved.
