2025’s first Full Moon, on January 13, lands in Capricorn season and therefore its opposite sign of Cancer, which is the sign ruled over by the moon. This is a double whammy of lunar energy and therefore incredibly powerful.

There is no hiding from the emotionally illuminating beam of this Full Moon. Expect it to expose and reveal your inner thoughts and feelings, to shine a light on darkness, and to make you feel sensitive and intuitive.

This Full Moon is a time to tentatively express yourself and your most secret thoughts, only to those you truly trust and love. Share vulnerabilities, say how you really feel, ask for honesty.

All will be revealed — let the tarot show you what.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for the Full Moon in Cancer: The Devil

Meaning: You are attracted to something, or someone (possibly a Capricorn), which is no good for you, and you know it. But still you feel unable to resist.

The Devil is a powerful urge to follow that familiar path of least resistance, but this Full Moon you perhaps decide to resist and find a distraction. Do what is best for you in the long run. The motivation to break this habit will be there if you ask for it.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for the Full Moon in Cancer: The Sun

Meaning: Whatever cynical, world-weary or suspicious energy or vibes you’re giving off right now… it’s not really you. It’s a shield to prevent you being hurt or disappointed again (once bitten, twice shy) but actually it’s also serving as a barrier to the good energy getting in.

This Full Moon will ask you to drop your guard and admit, simply and honestly, what it is that you most hope and wish for. All of it can come true in 2025, but you have to believe in it and to be overt about your true desires. Open up.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for the Full Moon in Cancer: Strength

Meaning: Geminis are not keen on the feelings, on letting emotion flow freely or overwhelmingly, and there’s, frankly, never a good time to cry.
Strength reveals that, this Full Moon, you need to work on how you experience and process your feelings.

You are strong enough to face them. You don’t need to keep deflecting or suppressing. You can feel it all fully and then just let it go and move on. Too often, your bottle stuff up and it turns into migraines or reflux or backache. Let your emotions flow, you can handle them.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Tarot card for Cancer for the Full Moon in Cancer: Eight of Wands

Meaning: Cancerians wear their crab shell like armour. No one gets in (no one gets out either, but that’s another story) and all secrets are on DEFCON 1 lock-down! Well this Full Moon is going to crack the code and enable you to finally open up, to someone you trust, about your most vulnerable thoughts or beliefs, or sensitivities.

You need to talk about this stuff, it has been cooped up for too long and some of it is warped, not true, unhelpful, unkind. Get a second opinion. Get a new take on it. Release some of this pent-up angst simply by talking about it.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Tarot card for Leo for the Full Moon in Cancer: Four of Wands

Meaning: All Leos are ambitious and see life as a pathway of progress, heading towards greater success and rewards. You don’t go backwards.
But 2024 made you worry that actually you might be – it’s a real fear, and you’re ready now to look at that belief in more detail.

Is it true? Is it rooted in an event or decision you took? Can you reframe this feeling? Can you undo what you did? Talk about it, make a choice and take a next step. You are torturing yourself needlessly.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Tarot card for Virgo for the Full Moon in Cancer: Seven of Coins

Meaning: The truth is, and it will emerge and clarify itself this Full Moon, that you’re changing, evolving and what might’ve ticked the boxes last year might not in 2025. And that is okay. You are allowed to grow!

So, take a breath and admit what you think might be fading from your life and give yourself permission to start to let it go. New energy and ideas will swiftly flow in to replace it, this is not a loss, it’s just a change. Embrace it.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot card for Libra for the Full Moon in Cancer: Three of Swords

Meaning: You are worried that someone in your circle, or connected to it, is not being honest, has not got good, wholesome intentions, and might be stabbing you – or someone you love – in the back. You have good instincts and this card suggests you’re right.

So, keep an eye out, and share your misgivings with those you trust this Full Moon. Watch the culprit and compare notes. If/when you do reveal wrongdoing then act swiftly to surgically remove them from your sphere. You don’t need haters or jealous folk or unkind influences ruining your Venus realm!

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Tarot card for Scorpio for the Full Moon in Cancer: Page of Coins

Meaning: This Full Moon is all about your inner child and what they have to tell you, ask you, demand of you, and maybe also want for you. They are your ally, your mirror self, your protector and most vulnerable self.

Meditate, journal, mirror talk, go down Memory Lane, speak with family and old friends, wander and roam around that childhood palace and see what emerges. Insights and secrets will be part of this, a new era of self awareness, stuff you can really use to forge ahead feeling more whole and authentic.
