❄️🌕 Tomorrow’s cold moon arrives carrying one of the most powerful lunar energies we’ll experience for nearly two decades — a full moon aligned with the moon’s rare 18.6-year standstill cycle.
In ancient times, healers and earth-keepers watched this cycle closely, trusting it as a marker of deep energetic reset. tonight, we’re offered that same invitation.
During a major lunar standstill, the moon reaches the furthest edge of its path, stretching its light to its most extreme height or lowest arc depending on where we stand on the earth. This makes the cold moon feel bigger, brighter, and energetically sharper than the typical winter moon.
It's the kind of celestial moment that encourages us to slow the breath, soften the nervous system, and reconnect with what the body has been quietly holding.
🌍 How it will appear:
⬆️ Northern hemisphere (including ireland): the moon will rise unusually high, its light clearer and more expansive — ideal for grounding practices, reflection, or gentle end-of-year release work.
⬇️ Southern hemisphere: the moon will sit low and glowing near the horizon, radiating a warm lantern-like presence.
Energetically, this moon supports:
✨ releasing emotional residue from the year
✨ reconnecting with your inner rhythm
✨ strengthening boundaries
✨ resetting the breath and nervous system
✨ honouring your own cycles of rest and expansion
When: 4th December 2025
Peak energy: shortly after moonrise in your local time.
Simply step outside, place your feet on the earth if you can, breathe deeply, and let the body and moon meet each other halfway. 🌕✨
