As we move through January 2020 seems to be kicking off on a positive note, however, there will be a full moon/lunar eclipse on the 10th that might knock some of us off-kilter. This whole celestial event is going to bring us all to a place where we’re romantically held back and confused overall.

This full moon/eclipse will be in the sign cancer which for many is quite the treat but also a bit concerning. While this full moon will provide you with the energies needed to manifest the things you want in your life, it will also be quite damaging to those who are not as strong as others. If we do not keep our emotions in check, things could go south quickly.

Regarding some aspects of this whole celestial event Astrology King wrote as follows on their website:

Lunar eclipse opposite Mercury causes emotional bias and polarized thinking that makes it harder to understand and communicate your feelings. You may have difficulty making sense of everyday problems, and misunderstandings or oversensitivity could lead to arguments.

Addiction, racism, and prejudice may influence your thoughts, words, and behaviors. It is important to listen carefully and think before speaking because of a tendency to react instinctively, especially when upset. Talking with a mentor may help you make sense of conflicted feelings.

Lunar eclipse opposite Saturn can cause bad moods because of sadness, boredom or loneliness. Difficulty in sharing your emotions can lead to relationship problems. Melancholy, pessimism and emotional coldness could also make socializing a chore.

You could feel burdened or guilty about responsibilities for your partner or someone much older or younger than you, like a child or grandchild, parent or grandparent. If you already have a tendency toward depression, you will need to work hard to avoid your negative feelings manifesting as loss, disappointment, and despair.

Lunar eclipse opposite Pluto causes inner turmoil and relationship drama. Your feelings can intensify to such an extreme level that you can no longer control your own reactions and behavior. You may experience dramatic mood swings, feeling strong and sexy one moment then nose-diving into insecurity the next.

Some feelings you may experience include hopelessness, fear, jealousy, and obsessiveness. You might also be vulnerable to being emotionally manipulated and controlled. But if you try to ignore or suppress your own intense feelings, someone you are emotionally attached to may act out such extreme behavior. Trying to control others will only end in guilt and shame.

Lunar eclipse opposite Ceres creates tension between a parents’ need to leave home to provide for their kids, and their maternal urge to stay home and nurture. While the Moon rules traditional motherhood, where mom stays home to nurture, Ceres rules modern motherhood such as working mothers and single mothers.

As you can see, a lot of the things influencing this event are going to be conflicting with one another. That all having been said, these energies won’t stick around for long. While they will be intense right now as the event is nearing and just a few days after it has past will still be quite intense once the 12th passes things will begin winding down and from there only last about a week regarding residual energies this time around. 

Don’t allow yourself to put too much hope into things while these energies are here. Be patient and kind to yourself and do not forget that you are in these moments at a heightened place in your own vulnerabilities. Just because things seem like they’re going well doesn’t mean they are, read through the lines and keep your eyes open to the things happening in your life.
