Full Moon in Cancer or Capricorn
When the Full Moon is in Cancer or Capricorn, the polarity of the Full Moon is Cancer/Capricorn. This opposition represents the need to balance outer structures (Capricorn) with inner security needs (Cancer). We can become more conscious of our conservative need to uphold societal agendas and our personal emotional initiatives, our home and family needs. By realizing that the larger society is made up of many small families, the two polarities can become whole. A wider view can assist the external world in supporting your inner personal needs. Help them to help you.

**FULL MOON phase**
The Full Moon is the exact moment when the Moon opposes the Sun by sign (180 degrees)

The Full Moon is the time when the Moon reflects the greatest amount of the Sun's light. The Earth is astronomically poised between the Sun and the Moon, enabling us to see two different sides of ourselves clearly. The opposing but equally-pulling gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon also reveals a tension within ourselves. By providing enough distance and light to give us an objective view of ourselves and how we relate to others, the Full Moon works to integrate and harmonize the contradictions in ourselves and others. This opening of increased awareness traditionally makes the Full Moon a beneficial time for meditation on personal and worldwide issues. There's literally an electrical energy build-up before a Full Moon and a release just after the peak. At the Full Moon, the seeds sown at the last New Moon are ready to be harvested and used ~~ we reap what we've sown. Working out the energy through the physical body can be grounding and centering.
