CANCER FULL MOON 2026

On January 3, 2026, at 5:04 a.m. EST, we will be experiencing a Full Moon in the sign of Cancer at 13°.  This will be a supermoon and is known as the “Wolf Moon”.

 

This Cancer Full Moon (as with all full moons) forms an Opposition to the Sun, and in this case, it also forms an Opposition aspect to Venus at 12° and Mars at 14° in Capricorn. 

 

For this Full Moon to have an effect on you (a Full Moon is a culmination of what began when the New Moon was in the same sign {Cancer} some six months ago), you will have to have other planets or angles (ASC, DC, MC, or IC) making a Conjunction or Opposition to the full moon’s placement within a three-degree orb.

 

A Full Moon in the sign of Cancer is an emotional placement as the emotions are often heightened.  Most people find they are more sensitive to their environment during a Full or New Moon cycle without the influence of Cancer, as in this case.  Hospitals have an increase in patients, fights break out more easily, police have noticed more crimes and in general, people’s emotions are heightened and this energy needs to find a positive release.  This is particularly true when the Full Moon or New Moon is in a water sign such as Cancer.

 

As mentioned, the Full Moon is a culmination cycle indicating the end of cycle which began when the New Moon was in Cancer (in this case).  When in the sign of Cancer, the family might be involved, the whole idea of nurturing is heightened and this could be towards self or another in need. Mothering and supporting are important. You want to get to the bottom of what is taking place regardless of whether it is considered good or bad.  You want to find the truth of the matter. 

 

The work you have put in since the Cancer New Moon is reflective of the results you will reap.  Now is the time to harvest your efforts. Because this is a Cancer Full Moon, your intuitive side may be enhanced, and you just seem to know or even better “feel” what the situation calls for.  The house position in your astrological chart defines the area of life involved, but family and the home likely are a part of this scenario.

 

Because Venus, the planet of love and affection, and Mars, the planet of drive and ambition, are involved through transit, this could be speaking of an important relationship.  Don’t forget the Sun, which is always in Opposition to the Moon during the Full Moon cycle, is now Conjunct the placement of Venus and Mars.  This makes it quite personal and may also affect your path in life.  You feel that you know how to move forward, although if there are challenges within the framework of the natal chart at the same time, there can be hurdles.  You seek out control of the situation by making decisions for those involved with a sense of confidence because of the concern and genuine care and love you have for these involved.

 

There will be a drive to meet the needs of those involved and although family is likely involved, you will also have to take into consideration your own personal needs.  You matter as well, and you can’t do things just for others. You must think about your needs. 

 

This is a powerful time where other people are involved due to the Sun/Moon Opposition.  They may influence your decision making by trying to force their opinions on you.  You must make the final decisions unless you agree wholeheartedly with what they are saying.

 

Cancer Full Moon 2026 is an emotional time, likely involving family and loved ones. You feel driven to nurture and help. Remember your own personal needs too.

TRANSITING PLUTO SQUARE NATAL PLUTO

The Transit of Pluto square to its Natal positioning usually occurs around the late 30’s but can extend as far as to the age of 60.  Much will depend on the Natal positioning of Pluto in the birth chart and the placement of Pluto during its transit. 

 

As a side note, transiting Neptune makes a Square to Natal Neptune into the early 40’s and Transiting Uranus makes an Opposition to its Natal position around the age of 41-43.  Finally, Chiron makes its return to its birth position between the age 49 to 51. With the understanding that all of these placements are extremely significant, no wonder this time in life is referred to as the mid-life crisis.

 

We have already discussed many of these placements in past articles, so we thought we would focus on the transit of Pluto squaring its Natal position. 

 

Pluto’s action is usually quite intense, although it can make its way forward in a rather subtle manner in the early stages.  Over time, it certainly makes its presence known.  The energies are often attached to psychological matters and often forces us to look deep within at any of the so-called dark or hidden areas of our nature.  These areas are considered taboo, and we may not want to face them.  However, this is the time when we will confront our so-called demons, better still our inner fears.

 

This aspect is a time of deep self-analysis and transformation when we re-evaluate things, especially how we feel about our personal power (or lack thereof) and the control we think we have over life or the control that we think we lack in our life.  This is often a time of personal crisis, because we must be honest and face that which we may not want to!  How else will we conquer our fears and eliminate things that no longer serve us? 

 

We must have a deep, honest, open look at what goes on within before we can make changes to those parts of us we allow to be on automatic pilot.  Letting go is of prime importance, as in many cases holding on is futile particularly to those things that stagnate us. Pluto sometimes demands action from us and if we do not act, it will force action onto us in a more dynamic or drastic manner.

 

It is easy to get caught up in what is taking hold during this astrological aspect, but these are the times when the valuable lessons are in place, and we can learn a great deal.  We come out stronger, more resilient, advanced in our understanding and ready to challenge life in a much more mature manner.  Do not fear transiting Pluto square natal Pluto.  Learn from this aspect. This too will pass, but you need to do the work.  You will come out on the other side a better version of yourself and be able to guide others through some of life’s more tumultuous times because of your personal experience.

ASPECTS TO SUN IN CAPRICORN 2025

We posted an article on December 17 for Sun in Capricorn.  https://holmastrology.blogspot.com/2025/12/sun-in-capricorn-2025.html Today, we will review some of the transiting outer planets making aspects to the position of the Capricorn Natal Sun.

 

Saturn and Neptune will be making a Square to those with their Capricorn Sun sign in the early degrees. Neptune moves beyond Pisces and stays in Aries beginning in late January (January 26, 2026) and Saturn moves into Aries on February 14, 2026.  Both planets enter Aries on a permanent basis in 2026 but have an influence on the Capricorn Sun prior to these dates as they maneuver their way forward.

Saturn, the planet of structure, and Neptune, the planet of obscurity and the intangible, can create havoc when they square your Sun.  There likely will be power struggles when it comes to your plans, the personal changes you might want to make and your path ahead.  Saturn likes the familiar and what feels comfortable. Saturn’s energies are unwilling to change even when change is necessary. 

 

Neptune may not see things clearly, can be vague and may be unsure of which path to take.  Neptune, however, also leans towards the mystical and finding our way through avenues that are not considered concrete which, of course, is what Saturn wants.

 

You will have to weigh out the pros and cons. It will be necessary to organize ideas into viable structures and to find a happy medium. Although Square aspects are known to be quite difficult, they also push us to find resolution and can bring great rewards for hard work.  The square aspect forces us into action because the tension is too challenging to ignore so you must work your way forward to find resolution. This, as a result, makes square aspects valuable as we must act.

 

The astrological houses in your chart where these planets are located will indicate what areas of life are influenced.  For example, the fourth and seventh house might have something to do with family and the home, and challenges coming from the marriage partner concerning what action you feel you need to take.  If it is the tenth and first houses involved for example, changes or challenges might be in place at work which will affect you on a personal basis. You will need to adjust and find ways to alleviate the worries that you experience during this aspect’s influence.

 

The are many possibilities depending on the houses involved. You will also have to look at any other transits or progressions making contact at the same time in your astrology chart.  Look at the natal potential of your Sun, Neptune and Saturn as this will help you find a resolution to what is unfolding. 

 

The aspects to Sun in Capricorn 2025 by Saturn and Neptune have opposite wants. Find a happy medium where a good foundation is laid for the more mystical side of life. Stay clear of ego and imagination to find a solution.

SUN IN CAPRICORN 2025

On December 21, 2025, the Sun moves from the sign of Sagittarius into the sign of Capricorn. 

 

Capricorn is a cardinal, earth sign which suggests that Capricorn individuals are practical, ambitious individuals who have the ability to lead rather than follow someone else, although those individuals they choose to follow will have qualities that they admire. 

 

Capricornians are hardworking, achievement-oriented individuals who, once dedicated to a plan, will see it through.  Capricorns are here to initiate tangible strategies and because of their willingness to work hard at achievement and their strong staying power, some of these plans can and will stand the test of time.

 

Under most conditions, Capricornians can be counted on because of their reliability. They are quite willing to put the extra effort into their objectives. 

 

As with any Sun sign, all attributes we have been describing can be affected by other aspects within the Natal Astrology chart.  Being born on the cusp of Capricorn and Sagittarius or on the cusp of Capricorn and Aquarius will have an impact of how these energies are brought to the surface and how these Capricorn individuals may use them.  Also, although Capricorn is a cardinal, earth sign if you have a lot of planets in Air, Water and/or Fire in your chart, these will also temper your Sun sign qualities.  Much will depend on the overall nature of the Astrological birth chart, although the Sun sign in particular is very powerful and has great influence over our personality.

 

Happy solar return to our serious, realistic, hard-working, reliable, ambitious Sun in Capricorn 2025 readers.

 

Watch for our post on Monday, December 22 covering some of the aspects that will be affecting our Sun in Capricorn readers over approximately the next 12 months.

WINTER SOLSTICE

The Winter Solstice (Hibernal Solstice) takes place on Sunday, December 21, 2025, 10:02 a.m. EST in the northern hemisphere. December 21 will have the least amount of daylight as the sun will be at its lowest arc in the sky for the northern hemisphere.

 

Shortly after December 21, our precious sunlight will begin to increase again (only by seconds in the beginning.  The additional light will be more noticeable in the evenings.)

 

As much of nature sleeps and the light is limited, we can use the long nights to reflect on our life’s journey. Go inward and plan your intentions for when the energy and the light return.

 

Follow Mother Nature example as she knows best. Many animals are now hibernating or slowing down, resting and waiting for the return of light, for the return of warmth, the return of the energy that nurtures us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

 

Our obvious current lesson is patience. Utilize this time wisely.  You can use it to look deep into your shadow self. Bring light to the darkest corners of your being but do not judge what you find. Fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

 

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), Christians celebrate the birth of Christ for example (the rebirth of salvation)? This is a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, Saturnalia, and the list goes on.

 

We have much to celebrate. Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is. Be filled with gratitude, with love and with inner healing light! Winter Solstice blessings.

SAGITTARIUS NEW MOON 2025

On December 20, 2025, we will be experiencing a New Moon at 28° in the sign of Sagittarius.  Anyone have planets or angles with a three-degree orb of this placement especially by Conjunction or Opposition will be influenced by this placement. 

 

New Moon’s energies signify the beginning of a cycle.  This is a fresh start or a time to plant seeds that will eventually grow, if nurtured, into something worthwhile in the garden of life.  It is a good time to go within and examine what truly matters to you now.  Set your intentions on what is important to you. 

 

The Sun and the Moon are currently aspected by a Conjunction. The Sun represents our egoic self and the Moon dealing with our sensitivities and emotions. These are now connected and heighten in intensity. These energies can assist us in moving forward when aspected in our natal chart.  Set your intentions, move ahead with your plans and realize the potential available.

 

With a Sagittarius New Moon in particular, we have the power of Jupiter behind our actions.  Sagittarius is about moving ahead with a positive attitude and with high hopes for the outcome.  Many who have this placement activated in their Natal Chart will feel as though they can’t go wrong.  The road ahead looks promising and nothing will hold them back.

 

This is a positive way of looking at things, but some things may not go as planned.  You can expect some delays, some challenges along the way and the feeling that you are not sure which way you are heading or whether this plan of yours will actually work out.  This is due to the Squares from Saturn and Neptune in the sign of Pisces currently moving through the Zodiac.

 

Saturn is at 25° Pisces and tends to restrict and delay and often puts up roadblocks to make the passage more difficult to teach life lessons.  It requires us to work hard, plan ahead, move discretely and carefully.  Advance with the intension of making things as near perfect as possible.  Our hard work usually pays off.  It is essential to apply yourself completed.  The venture likely won’t be an easy one as work is required even though the energies from Sagittarius might feel that way.

 

Neptune is also in Square to this position and is very close to being direct at 29° Pisces. Neptune can make things or our direction unclear.  Our plans may seem somewhat vague and uncertainty can set in.  We might wonder if we are making the right decision.  We need a reality check and fortunately, Saturn will assist with that.

The houses involved in your personal chart will help define the areas of life involved.  If you happen to have a Natal Aspect between Saturn and Neptune in place, this will intensify the energy coming into force. 

 

The Sagittarius New Moon 2025 indicates hard work is essential for your goals to reach fruition. Be realistic as you will fail if you make your goals unreachable.  Set your goals, work hard and keep a positive attitude.

THE EVER-CHANGING BACKDROP OF OUR LIVES

Is there a shift taking hold in your life? 

 

Are you entering a new phase of development? 

 

Quite often after a period of what feels like stagnation, we begin to enter a new phase of progress.  Our focus may shift and we step in a new direction.  It’s time for growth!

 

This may be expected or more often than not, completely unexpected.  We become so wrapped up in the process that we don’t recognize that change and growth are happening.  In most cases, the entry level is subtle, and little seems to shift, but after time, we begin to notice that something seems different, that we are being drawn in a different direction.

 

In many cases, especially in the beginning, it is internal, but then the internal changes reflect out into our world as well. Life looks different. Our outlook seems brighter, colors more vibrant, the wind and temperature more outstanding.  Although the manner of expression seems to be directed towards outside stimuli, in reality we have already changed within.  Again, all things begin within and then are noticed on the outside.

 

The shift does not have to be a total life change (but it can be). Change can manifest itself in small but important relationship changes, occupational transitions, or even changes in our appearance.  Outside manifestation moves in areas that we will recognize and perhaps others will as well, (although at times, only we realize the change that is happening).

 

Prior, we may have been felt we were ready for change or knew that something had to shift. Alternatively, we may not have had any idea that a shift was coming.  One thing is for certain, the changes taking hold, whether barely recognizable or life changing, are in place for a reason. 

 

Shifts happen when change is required.  We are ready even if we don’t feel we are.  The ever-changing backdrop of our lives is significant. We will move forward even when we hold back.  Shifting is part of our life’s purpose, and it takes hold when appropriate.
