Full SuperMoon in Cancer 2026

On January 3rd at 2:02 AM PST we have a Full Super Moon; the first of 2026. The Sun is stationed at 13 degrees Capricorn 2 minutes, and the Moon at 13 degrees Cancer 2 minutes.

Full Moons are the culmination of hopes and dreams cast when the Moon was New. In this case, the Moon was new in Cancer June 25th of 2025. This was the beginning of Summer, and a time where family, security and our home was most important. Were the goals you set designed around delivering on the love and inspiration of the longer days, or the garden, fixing your home, or working to bring your family closer? Now look at where you are in your life right now, and if you’ve arrived at the goals you set. If you haven’t fully realized your goals, you can take this time to pause, reconsider and live in the dreamscape of what you wish to realize.

Capricorn Sun directs us to be ambitious, responsible and practical. This Earth Sign is eager to create a foundation from which to build upon. Capricorns build upon their last success, learn from their mistakes, and appreciate the material things that life offers. They work hard for what they receive and it‘s lasting rather than fleeting.

With this Full SuperMoon, shining brighter and appearing so much closer than we usually see, we are emotionally set up to discover the cracks in the surface. Things that normally get swept under the rug can rear their ugly head and beg for attention. Cancer is ruled by the Moon in astrology, and all things regarding Mother, home and family are fair game for outbursts. Unresolved issues from the past can surface in order for us to see them through our “new eyes”, ones that have seen from experience we are always learning and growing through the mistakes we make. The aspects the Moon makes to the Sun and planets are very important for us to consider.

The planets Venus and Mars join forces with the Sun to oppose the Full Moon. Venus at 12 degrees Capricorn creates pressure/anxiety regarding the balance of your practical responsibilities and your emotional needs. Balancing career with the nurturing of home and family. These challenges inspire a closer look at your finances and your long term goals, and how you wish to achieve them. What Cancer Moon inspires is a deep and authentic connection with your family.

Mars at 14 degrees Capricorn inspires us to demand respect as we are reliable, consistent and never give up. Opposite the Full Moon the theme becomes even more contentious between our physical and emotional well being. Our ambitions can play tug-of-war with our need for fulfillment. Once learning to love what we do for income by taking chances for change, we can harmonize our life. This dynamic calls for balancing hard work with self-care, setting boundaries for your emotions, and finding security in your inner world while pursuing external success.

These most important goals are ours to reach for now. Slowly, strategically and methodically review what needs attention, and set doable goals that you can accomplish. Remember the balance of your career/work and home life are the turf now, so create away!
