Emotionally Constipated Full Moon in Cancer Weekly Horoscope 01/05-01/12

Today, Monday the 6th of January, Mars Retrograde moves from Leo into Cancer where it will stay until the end of April. Think back to when Mars was in Cancer around September and October of 2024. What themes were coming up for you? Mars in Cancer can bring up passive aggressive vibes as well as feeling like you want to protect something or someone in an aggressive manner. Mars retrograde can also have us feeling stuck. 

• is there something that you have been pushing aggressively to start but things keep coming up as obstacles along your path?

• What happens if you let go of the impulse to get a stalled project underway?

• What if you refocus on protecting yourself and your own needs for care and nurturing?

• Are there people or things you have to deal with that are of a passive aggressive nature?

We also have Mercury in Sagittarius squaring Neptune in Pisces. Sometimes our communication style can be more focused on ending whatever we are doing in order to move on to the next best option. Sometimes this desire can cause us to paint a rosy picture of how things may end up that has no basis in reality. Look out for this with the transit today.

• Stop idealizing potential outcomes

• Stay present and connected

• Take some time in nature

• Loosley plan a fantasy trip

• Stay grounded in the reality of the people that are ACTUALLY in your life currently

On Wednesday both the Sun and Mercury will be in Capricorn. So you may be able to communicate in a more direct and results-oriented way. Your communication may also be understood better in general. However, the Sun will be squaring Chiron in Aries so watch out that you don’t let early traumas get in the way of your overarching goals.

• What early childhood trauma triggers can you put on the back burner for now so that you can more clearly communicate your plans?

• Try not to take things too personal today. Instead, rely on clear and direct communication.

Our final transit of the week might give some flow and ease to whatever came up for you on Monday as Mars retrograde in Cancer trines Neptune in Pisces on Sunday the 12th

• Is there some place in your life where  you can put a bit more energy towards love and care to help get closer to realization of a far off dream for you and your loved ones?

• Is there somewhere you may be aggressively clinging to an ideal situation or person that is not realistic?

Buckle up for next week’s aggressively emo full Moon…more on that next week.
