The Full Wolf Moon (Full Moon in Cancer)

This afternoon/evening, we experience the last Full Moon of 2023. (The Moon at 4º58’ in her home sign of Cancer opposes the Sun in Capricorn at 5:33pm MST.) Called the Wolf Moon, she signified times past when the northern reaches of our planet were blanketed in the first thick layers of winter snow, and the wild wolves roamed free on the plains. As Mama Gaia balances her energy in ways that we humans don’t quite understand, most of us in the northern hemisphere are experiencing the dark of winter without the merciful snow reflecting the illuminations of the bright moon.
