It’s officially a new year, but do things *feel* new yet? The start of 2022 hasn’t exactly been smooth, especially when it comes to astrology. You may still be struggling with a drama that you hoped to leave behind in 2021, but couldn’t resolve in time.
There may be a lot of unfinished business, but the first Full Moon of 2022 can give you a much-needed boost. And if you’re one of the zodiac signs that will be most affected by the January 2022 Full Moon, this Full Moon could be an uplifting reminder to keep going.
Just days after Mercury goes retrograde, a Full Moon in Cancer, aka the Wolf Moon, will take place on January 17 at 6:48 p.m. ET, which makes it harder to focus and communicate clearly. Venus will also retrograde during this Full Moon, causing relationship conflicts to resurface and financial problems to worsen.
When a planet retrogrades, it begins to move backward on the zodiac wheel, making it harder to move forward as it draws your attention to an unresolved past. Fortunately, the upcoming Full Moon could lead to a beautiful turning point.
This Full Moon is particularly special. After all, it literally happens in Cancer, and the Moon is the designated planetary ruler of this cardinal water sign. Cancer is where the Moon feels at home.
This Full Moon will show you the level of compassion your heart craves, revealing what matters most to you. However, because this Full Moon opposes dark and intimidating Pluto, you may have to fight harder than ever. Here’s why the cardinal signs feel it the most:
