Moon Phases in January: Full Moon in Cancer
Fully illuminated, this Full Moon was known as the Full Moon of the Wolf by the ancient Native American tribes, because this was the time of year when the animals howled near their campsites. And now in January, it appears in the sky under the influence of the sign of Cancer at 20:07.
Take advantage of the mood of renewal to do some cleaning in your physical and mental space. The Full Moon usually messes with emotions, building up large levels of energy, and when it is in Cancer then it comes out low! This sign is known for its exacerbated emotions, this beginning of the year promises to be a period of much crying and nostalgia. Get over it and let’s move on, my love! We have a whole year ahead of us! As you manage to work on cleaning and purifying these emotions, you will be able to release or remove this accumulation, allowing a better flow of thoughts and actions. Feel good, happy, with yourself and with others.
Moon Phases in January: Waning Moon in Libra
On the 14th we reach the end of a lunar cycle, and with it we also have the first moment of pause and reflection on your actions before entering a new phase. Even though you have started the year in a mood of optimism and transformation, wait a little longer before taking decisions.
If something was still unresolved in 2022, now is the time to find a solution for those situations. Don’t take action now, just ponder over the events and analyze ways to settle these pending issues. Take advantage of the Librian energy, the sign of diplomacy and conciliation, to think of the best plan!
You may feel a bit indecisive, also an expected consequence in the face of Libra’s influence. Asking sensible and reliable people for their opinion can help at this time. Just don’t isolate yourself, it will pass!
Moon Phases in January: Super New Moon in Aquarius
Invisible in the night sky, the New Moon will be located on the same side of the Earth as the Sun. A time for unusual experiences and reflections, it is finally time to set your goals and resolutions for the year that is just beginning.
Even if you are experiencing a more introspective and contemplative phase, it is time to work hard and focus on organizing plans and ideas. And don’t forget! From the 22nd to the 24th, you will still have time for cleaning and closure. Take the opportunity to put your mind in place and ponder your next steps.
On the very first day of this lunation (considering that we enter the period when the Moon is in the same sign as the Sun), we will have a Supermoon in Aquarius at 8:53 PM, signaling a very favorable time to create, break routine, spread your wings and fly. Don’t be afraid to roll up your sleeves and put your team into play! Yes, put your team together! Friendships and group activities will be very favored during this time.
Moon Phases in January: Waxing Moon in Taurus
The Crescent Moon should appear in the sky at 12:18 in the sign of Taurus, strongly propelling new activities, ventures, dreams, and projects. Do you want something better? As the first Crescent Moon of the year, this is the perfect time to get your hands dirty and start moving forward with your goals. This energy will shed light on your more practical and down-to-earth side. So as much as you may have wild dreams, the security and stability of this cycle should keep you from going crazy with money, for example.
Health-related changes, such as a new eating habit, also have a better chance of success in this period.
Moon phases in January 2023: the energy of the stars
Inspiring nostalgia, January kicks off with an emotional Full Moon, allowing you to connect more truthfully to all those who have been by your side throughout 2022. Strengthen the bonds for this new cycle, prepare your emotions for the coming months, and begin therapy if you wish. The month goes on with much momentum, and soon allows you to enjoy the conquests with more tranquility and affection in your relationships.
Advice from the stars: it’s time to polish your soul to finally shine with more authenticity. Take advantage of the moment of reflection of the beginnings to open your heart to what you find most difficult to understand and accept. Get rid of feelings like greed and selfishness, so that you can prepare yourself for a year of success and harmony.
It is time to renew your longing to get closer to someone with intimacy and connection of souls. As such, a special time for your rituals.
The stars this month will emphasize a more serious way of handling relationships. And more caution before making a commitment. However, it will be possible for feelings to surface afterwards. If you feel a little more difficulty in expressing your feelings, it could be that the need is for really deep love!
We will also have the opportunity to enhance everything we have started since the end of December. The power to transform, heal, and transcend the most difficult pains will be within reach.
