Full Moon in Capricorn-Cancer on Jan. 3, 2026

I am here today to talk to you about this Full Moon period we are beginning in the early morning on Saturday, January 3rd at 3:03 AM (MST). So, it will be Full at 5:03 EST.

This is known as the Wolf Moon, known as such due to the sounds of the wolves howling through the long still nights of winter. In some ways, they may have done so from hunger, but it was also a way to mark their territory and strengthen social bonds with other wolves and wildlife. This particular Full Wolf Moon serves as a symbolic fresh start for the year. It’s connected with new beginnings, renewal, and prosperity. Other names include the Ice moon, the Old Moon, and the Storm Moon.

We have a Full Moon when the sun and moon are considered in opposition. Astrologically, this means that both the Sun and Moon are in opposing signs, and at the time of this Full Moon, the Sun is in Capricorn & the Moon is in Cancer, exactly opposed the Sun on Jan 3rd at 3:03 AM MST. The Cancer energy of the Moon encourages us to value our roots and families. At the same time, the Capricorn Sun encourages us to be resilient, and to strive for achievements and a sense of duty and responsibility. The two of them strike the perfect balance, when both are honored. Self-care is also an important part of striking that balance.

There are some important aspects at work. Watch the video to learn more.

Our Winter Solstice ceremony is here on our website in case you missed it.

To be honest, I haven’t decided if I will be doing any more online rituals, but if I do decide to continue for awhile longer, it will only be until Spring.

Wishing you all a wonderful 2026!
