Plain words

What does this mean?

On July 18, 2027 at 17:44 (CEST), the Full Moon falls in Capricorn. Sun and Moon sit exactly opposite each other, which is why the Moon is fully lit. In the monthly cycle this is the high point. What has been building for two weeks comes into view, wraps up, or asks to be let go. This time the themes belong to Capricorn.

What does the Moon mean?

The MoonFull Moon in Capricorn

Your Moon is the inner life: moods, habits, home. It tells what feeds you, what triggers you, and how you get back to feeling safe when everything gets too noisy, whether that's tea on the sofa or a call to your sister. The Sun describes the person you want to be. The Moon is who you are with no one looking, down to your reflexes, longings and dreams.

Part 2 of 3
