As we dive into the energies of the Full Moon in Capricorn, it's a perfect time to bring our focus to the themes of surrender and balance.
Capricorn, an earth sign, offers a grounding energy that helps us connect deeply with the present moment and the tasks at hand.
In this episode of Create & Listen, I explored how to channel this energy onto the page, reflecting on the themes of the Full Moon, surrendering to the Divine, and finding balance between work and home life.
Key Takeaways:
Harnessing Capricorn's Earth Energy: Using earthy colors in your journal to connect with Capricorn's grounding energy.
Theme of Surrender: Embracing surrender during the full moon and letting go of control.
Balancing Work and Home: Finding balance between work and home life, especially during the full moon's influence.
Releasing Attachments: The importance of releasing attachments to past memories to create space for new opportunities.
Creative Expression: Using various artistic mediums like oil pastels, watercolors, and glitter to express emotions and intentions.
Connecting with Earthy Colors
To start, I chose earthy colors to bring the Capricorn energy into my journaling practice. These colors help ground me, creating a tangible connection to the earth and its stability. As I laid out my supplies, I felt the solid presence of Capricorn guiding me to be practical and focused in my creative expression.
Embracing the Theme of Surrender
The Full Moon is a time of surrender, a phase in the lunar cycle where we release control and trust in the Divine. This Full Moon in Capricorn brought up the idea of taking a reality check and recognizing the end of a tough cycle, using Oracle Cards from Yasmin Boland's Moonology and Moon Manifesting decks.* The phrase, "Take a reality check," initially made me uncomfortable. However, "The end of a tough cycle approaches" resonated deeply, offering a sense of relief and hope.
Surrendering can be challenging. We often cling to control, trying to manage every aspect of our lives. This Full Moon invites us to let go and trust the process. Reflecting on this, I acknowledged how tough this year has been for many of us. It's been a year of ups and downs, but the end of this cycle is in sight, promising new beginnings and fresh energy.
Balancing Work and Home Life
Capricorn's energy is about doing the work and being diligent. This Full Moon, balanced by the Sun in home-loving Cancer, highlights the tension between our professional and personal lives. This opposition calls for a balance between our ego and our emotions, our work ethic and our need for comfort and security.
As I journaled, I felt the pull between these aspects. I used oil pastels and watercolors to visually express this balance on the page. The colors and shapes represented the dynamic interplay between work and home, showing how they can coexist harmoniously.
Releasing Attachments
A significant part of this journaling session was about releasing attachments to old memories and past experiences. It's not about forgetting these memories but letting go of the hold they have on us. I came across a powerful quote: "Release what needs releasing and enjoy your life. Don’t be a prisoner of your past; be a creator of your future, starting NOW."
This idea of release was central to my journaling. As I prepared to move out of my current studio space, I reflected on the memories and emotions tied to it. This space has been a creative haven, a place of learning, laughter, and sometimes tears.
But now, it's time to let go and move forward.
Creative Expression
Using various artistic mediums, I allowed my feelings and intentions to flow onto the page. Oil pastels, watercolors, and glitter helped me express the duality of Capricorn's practicality and Cancer's emotional depth. The process was liberating, as I surrendered control of the outcome and let the creative energy guide me.
I added symbols like the yellow triangle for air, representing clarity and flow, and feathers to symbolize the freedom that comes with release. Each element on the page held meaning, contributing to the overall theme of balance and surrender.
Final Thoughts
This Full Moon in Capricorn is a powerful time to reflect, release, and realign.
By surrendering to the Divine and finding balance between work and home, we can navigate the challenges of the past and embrace the opportunities ahead.
