Cancer Full Moon in Ashlesha: Wisdom and Inner Power

 
 

At 18° on February 1st, the Cancer Full Moon in Ashlesha nakshatra is ruled by the Naga of wisdom and power, in the sign of protection and security. This full moon phase is less about our emotions and more about the power from within. Feel more, think less. Like a serpent that reads through deep signals.

This is a cycle that teaches how to remain flexible amidst the challenge. Knowing when to rest and when to react. Turning the lights on to the invisible strengths behind our decisions. Ashlesha, ruled by the nagas, is the energy that works beneath the surface, moving through our intuition and energy centers with precision.

A dedication that unlocks a profound force from within. Illuminating what was hidden and reclaiming a lost dignity and clarity. Transforming into a wise and empathetic witness as familiar patterns emerge again, ready to be untangled.

Reflecting: where have you been trying to earn safety through loyalty or by over-giving (relationship patterns)? What actions keep us tethered to people, old thoughts and feelings (emotional attachments)?

Awakening the thought, what we are willing to do with our time, not just to reach an end, but what will truly nourish us (self-nourishment, nervous system regulation).

As the keepers of our own kingdom, we are in preparation for the upcoming solar eclipse in Aquarius (eclipse season) when the aperture shifts focus (collective transition).

The naga wisdom of this cycle is exquisitely sensitive, attuned to what we often miss, yet charged with transformative force. An electric awareness that doesn't think its way through, but senses and knows. The Naga does not overthink it responds with precision.

May you be blessed with sensitivity and precision, filled with the jewels of your inner wisdom.

I wish you a beautiful full moon cycle
