Full Wolf SuperMoon in Cancer
January 3 | 13° Cancer

As we approach the Full Wolf SuperMoon in Cancer, the sky opens a powerful emotional threshold — one that speaks to belonging, responsibility, protection, and the deep memory carried in the body.

This Moon rises at 13° Cancer, closely aligned with Jupiter, amplifying Cancer’s terrain: home, family, ancestry, emotional safety, and the places where we feel most vulnerable — or most nourished. Feelings may run high, but they are not without meaning. This is emotional truth seeking acknowledgment.

Opposite the Moon, a rare & weighty Capricorn stellium — the Sun, Venus & Mars — forms the backbone of this lunation. This opposition highlights a living tension between the inner world & the outer structures of our lives:
between what we feel & what we are building,
between emotional needs & long-term commitments, between care & responsibility.

With Mars exalted in Capricorn, there is strength available — but it is strength refined through discipline & integrity. This Full Moon does not ask us to abandon responsibility; it asks us to ensure that what we are committing to is rooted in emotional honesty rather than endurance alone.

A key layer of this lunation arrives through Chiron in Aries, which stations less than 24 hours before the Full Moon. This moment marks a subtle but significant turning point. Over recent months, old wounds around identity, self-assertion, anger & independence have been quietly reviewed & felt inwardly. As Chiron turns direct, something shifts from internal processing toward embodied understanding. Healing does not mean the past disappears — it means we no longer have to lead our lives from the wound.

Under this Cancer Moon, courage becomes gentler. Action begins to emerge not from survival, but from self-trust.

Adding depth to this moment, Saturn & Neptune in late Pisces continue to dissolve outdated timelines, roles & expectations, while Pluto newly in Aquarius signals a deeper, collective redefinition of power, authority & responsibility quietly underway.

This is a Full Moon of:
• emotional maturity
• sacred loyalty
• ancestral memory
• redefining success so it includes the heart

The Wolf Moon reminds us that while the path may be solitary at times, we are not meant to abandon what nourishes us in order to belong.

Let this Moon illuminate:
Where have you grown strong enough to protect what truly matters?
Where does your inner world ask for care — not control?

Looking for fun drinks for New Year's Eve?
What about a Dirty Drunkin Rootbeer or Cranberry Cream Float?
Poor a glass 3/4 full of the Millstream Brewing Co. Rootbeer or Cranberry Creme soda. Add a shot of vanilla vodka, a splash of French vanilla creamer then top with a swirl of whip cream 😋 (Do a kid friendly version by leaving out the vodka)
Get your Millstream sodas from Warsaw Mercantile or grab some from me here in Aurora!

3rd night of yule: The Norse tradition honors Mani and/or the virtue of “Courage.” Mani is the God of the Moon; he lights the way for hunters in the forest at night. He is the light in the darkness and as this time of year begins the turn from darkness to light, his guidance in the dark is honored. Some traditions claim lighting the Yule log and leaping over the flames to gain luck and purification. Tonight is a good night to log your dreams or setting goals for the new year.
The virtue of Courage is important as courage is something many of us need almost daily; for big and small issues. Remember that courage is not necessarily the absence of fear, but doing the right thing even though one is fearful. But, of course, one should be sure to recognize the difference between courageousness and stupidity. If there is a situation that you know you could be harmed in some way, you can still be brave and face it, but be sure to do so in an intelligent way that creates as little risk to yourself and to others as possible (if possible). Also, courage is more than saving someone or battling a disease or some other adversary; sometimes it’s asking for that raise, learning a new skill, going out into social situations when you’re introverted, joining a talent show, etc. It involves personal strength and personal growth. So tonight we honor, the moon, the dark, and courage.
