πŸŒ• Full Moon in Cancer – January 2026

Tomorrow is the full moon, and like all new moons and full moons, I did a spread aligned to the moon’s current themes as a part of my recognition of the moon’s cycle and influences upon us. Today’s spread is courtesy of @Ethony from way back in 2015.

Cancer Full Moon Tarot Reading with the Zodiac Tarot

Emotional State – Where your emotional health is during this Full Moon.

Seven of Swords – Emotionally, you are currently feeling a bit unworthy of the successes you’ve accomplished, as if these successes are the result of you getting away with something rather than hard won accomplishments.

Note: I am aware that these are irrational emotions not based in fact. They are the emotional repercussions of negative self-talk and past trauma.

Need to Nurture – What you need; either mentally, emotionally, spiritually or physically. (Look at the suit of the card for clarification.)

King of Pentacles – You crave stability. You always crave stability. Perhaps this is something that you might want to examine more closely. Not just what drives you to crave stability, but the nature of stability itself… what it is and is made of.

Shed Some Light – What your higher self, spirit guides, etc are asking you to reflect on this Full Moon.

Knight of Swords – Why are you rushing? And what are you missing out on by doing so?Β  When you rush around and allow impulse to lead, you lose out on the experiences you could have garnered along the way.Β  Instead, the experience becomes anxiety and loses its richness.Β  Consider slowing down instead so you can more fully experience the journey.

Dispel – What you can let go of during the upcoming waning of the Moon.

Seven of Wands – Release your defensiveness. Remember that you can stand strong in your authenticity, solid in your values and beliefs, without a sense of defense or aggression. There’s no need to bring that energy to the table.Β  Let it go instead.

Challenge – What obstacle is preventing you from moving forward?

The Sun – One of the obstacles that is currently preventing you from moving forward is your perception of success. Consider spending some time reflecting on why your perception of success includes no joy?Β  Perhaps it’s time to reframe what success looks like to include factors like enjoyment and fun rather than just goals and responsibilities.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Three of Swords – Disappointments come and go; don’t allow them cause you to crumble and fall.

New Moon in Sagittarius tarot reading with the X'mas Elf Tarot

CLEARING: What sensitive areas have I poked and prodded enough for now?

Three of Pentacles – You’ve done really well at including those in your life more in dealing with your responsibilities. Teamwork is going well right now and there’s no need to keep picking at it for the time being. You’ve noticed this in the delegation of housework, daily tasks, and order processing of late.

TRANSITIONAL PAUSE: How has diving deep inspired me to look far and wide for my next journey?

Queen of Wands – Even when you are unenthused, you still need to keep moving. This is something that you’ve struggled with ever since you started exploring your emotions more in depth. As a result, you are coming to an understanding that even when your emotions are low, it is no excuse for not giving yourself the support you need; and that it’s through continuing on in creative endeavors that you enjoy that you are able to pull yourself out of these slumps.

NEW SEEDS: What mind-expanding experiences are made possible by boldness?

The Hanged Man – When you allow yourself to explore different angles of perspective, it gives you a far more expensive experience and understanding then you would otherwise receive. Sometimes these moments allow you to get a peek at the truth that you were trying to deny, while other times they allow you to see the truth in others that they are trying to hide.

LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS: How does constantly shifting allow me to find my flow?

Five of Swords – “Flow” is all about movement. When you remain still, things become stagnant and there is no “flow”. Stagnancy is toxic and promotes decay. It takes time to climb out of and recover from it once it’s managed to set in. You’ve found that it’s better to keep moving, even if you’re moving blindly, than to stand still and let the stagnancy gather around you.

PLANETARY BOON: What good fortune awaits discovery?

Eight of Cups – By sticking things out instead of giving up and walking away, sometimes those things that have you wanting to walk away will turn around, and you’ll find that you don’t need to move on after all.Β  It’s all about picking and choosing which things you decide to take a chance on, and if you’re okay with it not turning out… because sometimes that can happen too.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Knight of Swords – Keep going. Just because things feel uncertain now and then doesn’t mean it’s time to put down the sword and stop fighting.

Goat Figurine as Sympathetic Representation of Amalthea

Full Moon in Gemini Tarot Reading with The Myth Weaver Tarot

How am I deluding myself?

Ace of Swords Rx (Excalibur) – The “strong silent type” is a myth you need to remember not to buy into. Communication is key to healthy, strong, stable relationships with others. The adage that “sharing is caring” holds truth, and not just in sharing resources, but also in sharing your thoughts, emotions, and ideas with others.

What am I missing?

Eight of Cups Rx (Tane) – Movement. In a previous reading you did, it was made clear that movement of any kind is better than stagnancy and the creeping in of depression that stagnancy brings with it. Don’t allow yourself to sit in stagnancy right now, as you are just coming out of depressions pit, which leaves you vulnerable to falling back in again.

What perceptions need to be shifted?

Justice / The Measure (Maat) – Remember that sometimes fair does not look like fairness, and balance does not always look like balance. Sometimes there are things going on outside of your perception that make these things (fairness and balance) work even without appearing as if they should.

What requires further investigation?

Tower / The Ruin (Medusa) – You haven’t yet delved into all of the possibilities and opportunities that have been presented to you through the chaos and destruction that took place in the past few months. Don’t just write this experience off as a loss and leave it as that. Seek out the boon and those opportunities hidden among the rubble.

What possibilities are ready to show themselves?

Page / Seeker of Cups (Selkie) – You are being given the opportunity to learn to see things in a new perspective when it comes to the destruction wrought by chaos. Instead of allowing your emotions to take control and send you careening off the walls, these moments help you learn how to process those anxieties and emotions instead, so that you can shed them and keep moving.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

World / The Sacred Return (Quetzalcōātl) – It’s time to focus on beginning again, carrying forward with you the lessons that you have learned thus far. Leave behind you the journey and the struggles of the past year, take with you the lessons and start anew. Look at the new year to come as a fresh start and begin the process of letting go in order to allow that to happen more smoothly.

Other elements included in this reading:
Carved Rhyolite Leaf for Facilitating Calm Transitions
Foraged Acorns for Protection during New Beginnings
Goat Figurine as Sympathetic Representation of Amalthea

New Moon in Scorpio Tarot Reading with the Unofficial Shel Silverstein Tarot

What am I ready to welcome into my life right now?

Four of Coins atop Eight of Swords – You aren’t feeling particularly ready or welcoming to anything right now. Honestly? You just want to stick your head in the sand and pretend everything is at status quo.

What no longer feels aligned with who l am becoming?

Ace of Wands – You’re feeling particularly uninspired recently, and as a result are worried that that inner spark of creativity within you is sputtering out. You don’t want this misalignment to create a situation where you end up diverted off your chosen path.

What habits or beliefs am I ready to shift or release?

Five of Cups – As you recover from your recent depressive episode, you are trying to shed the dark inner narratives and pessimism that have managed to continue to linger on.

Where do I feel called to begin again?

The Star – You feel the need to connect more strongly with your positivity work, and use it to make the rungs on the ladder less slippery as you climb out of depression’s pit.

What does my soul truly desire in this next cycle?

Seven of Wands – Your soul craves the freedom to stop worrying over how your decisions and actions affect others, believing that you will then be able to be even more authentically yourself.

How can I stay open to possibility and expansion?

Ace of Swords – Communicate your needs. It’s easier to be open to growth and change when your needs are clearly communicated and heard.

Where am I being asked to trust more deeply?

Ace of Coins Rx – It’s okay to pass new opportunities by now and then. Trust in what you already have begun and are working with. No new opportunities are needed for you to have all that you need and live a happy life.

How can I be more intentional with my time, energy, and attention?

King of Cups – Stop giving yourself such a hard time about your mistakes, and be supportive instead.

What would it look like to honor the whispers of my intuition right now?

Queen of Cups – “What he said,” as the Queen glances to the King beside her.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Full Moon in Taurus Tarot Reading with The Lantern of the Sage Tarot

Where in your life needs sealing; the cracks where energy and warmth escape?

Knight of Swords – You often worry about speaking up too quickly, or sharing your opinions and then having to shove your foot in your mouth after. Past experience has told you that to move quickly with what you want to say means that you may end up backtracking instead of moving forward. Your lack of confidence in this area is depleting to your energy, and takes up too much of your time and concern.

What simple acts of maintenance could make your days gentler?

Five of Discs Rx – You spend a lot of time worrying about what you don’t have and need to do rather than just reaching out and asking for help. You would do better to ask for help regularly (even when you possibly don’t think you need it), which would allow you the space to be kinder to yourself and help establish a practice of letting others contribute rather than taking it all on your own shoulders.

Where have you mistaken constant effort for care, when true care might be rest?

Two of Batons – You don’t have to have everything planned out. It’s okay sometimes to just wing it.

What are you ready to protect, to keep safe through the wintering ahead?

Ten of Batons Rx atop The Magician – Protect yourself from burn out. Every year, the winter months are a struggle of overwhelmed and encroaching burnout as you work your way through the holiday rush. This year, with everything in the business much slower, you have the opportunity to treat yourself better and avoid the ugly repercussions of a more chaotic holiday season.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Six of Batons – Work on being more self-aware when you are people pleasing, and why.

Goat Figurine as Sympathetic Representation of Amalthea

New Moon in Libra Cartomancy Reading with the Giallo Playing Cards

What imbalances in my life need my attention?

Jack of Skulls under Jack of Knives – You’re working on a new balance in your life right now, and you need to make sure that you are not leaning too far into too much work, or too far into too much planning and strategy. It’s in finding a balance between them that you’ll find success.

How can I better respond to things that are unfair or unjust?

Five of Knives under Five of Candles – Don’t count your chickens until they’re hatched. When things feel unfair or unjust, you can learn a lot by holding back to observe back instead of engaging.

How can I bring more harmony into my relationships?

Five of Eyeballs – If you want to bring more harmony to your relationships, it’s time to address your scarcity issues and the shadows that drive them.

What can I do to manifest positive change?

King of Candles atop Seven of Skulls – Practice patience. The things you really want are going to take a lot of time, and you need to stay focused on your goal and what you’re working toward as you wait.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Nine of Eyeballs – During this new moon cycle, make sure that you are practicing gratitude and looking for opportunities to indulge in moments of enjoyment wherever you can.
