As seen on New Year’s Eve 2020

2020 came to an end with the very last full moon of the year in tender, loving Cancer on December 29. Warning: we’re in for an emotional ride. Astrologer Lisa Stardust says this full moon will be a “huge release for us all,” and it’s exactly what we need to bid adieu to the 365 day-long emotional roller coaster we’ve been on this year.

Narayana Montúfar, senior astrologer for Astrology.com, points out that there have been four total luminaries in the sign of Cancer this year. “This sign’s energy is something we have been working with all along,” she says. “In short, this moon is the opportunity to give it closure so we can put it behind us for once and for all, as we head into a brand new 2021.”

Moon Folklore

A bright first Moon promises rain and a bountiful harvest; a red-tinted Moon means a dry year.
A growing Moon and a flowing tide are lucky times to marry.
A halo around the Moon predicts wet or stormy weather.
