The Cancer full moon on Tuesday, December 29, 2020, is well-aspected to the planet Uranus. So the spiritual meaning of the full moon December 2020 astrology relates to welcome change, freedom, intuition, and excitement.

The December 2020 full moon is also under the influence of a spiritual and artistic fixed star that brings good health, honor, riches, and pleasure. It is an excellent omen for the easing of restrictions following the release of the coronavirus vaccines.

Full Moon Meaning

Sun opposite Moon brings your home, family, and intimate relationships into sharper focus for the following two weeks of this moon phase. Opposing forces such as work versus home, or what you need versus what you want, create inner tension and external pressures. This can lead to conflict and crises that drain your energy.

The lunar qualities of emotions and instincts reach their peak at a full moon. So use your increased emotional strength and intuition to overcome any relationship challenges. Subconscious awareness allows for an impartial and balanced look at your personal relationships. You will clearly see any relationship dynamics or negative feelings causing disharmony.

Full Moon Stars

Full Moon December 2020 in the Sign of Cancer is actually in the Constellation of Gemini. This discrepancy is due to the precession of the equinoxes which has moved the Sun Signs almost a whole Sign out of alignment with the Constellations from which they were named over 2000 years ago.

Fixed star Alhena at 09°23′ Cancer is on the left foot of the Southern Gemini Twin, Pollux. It bestows eminence in art but gives liability to accidents affecting the feet. ^[1] The artistic skills especially show up with the written or spoken word, and in the ability to negotiate a peaceful solution to disputes among people. ^[2] Alhena also confers a spiritual orientation, with an interest in the sciences. ^[3]

Moon conjunct Alhena: Good health, honor, riches, pleasure and society, domestic benefits. ^[1]
