🦀 The first full moon of 2026 will be the full moon in Cancer, which will arrive on January 3. A full moon already represents the end or culmination of a six-month cycle, but this one will be different. Considering that this is the first full moon, it might be extra nostalgic and poignant. Additionally, the full moon will be in domicile, meaning that Luna is at home in the sign of Cancer, as the lunar energy supports foundations, homes, and families. Altogether, the full moon in Cancer will feel like a much-needed homecoming after a tough year and the start of the new year.
🌝 Want to honor the full moon? Using herbs, colors, symbols, and crystals aligned with Cancer’s energy can amplify your lunar ritual and spells. You may feel called to herbs like chamomile and motherwort, especially if you’re drawing a bath. Silver and light blue are the perfect Cancerian colors to incorporate. You can even find silver and light blue crystals, such as selenite, moonstone, and celestite. If not crystals, then seashells, crescent moons, and crabs are another way to invite Cancer’s energy into your lunar ritual.
