With the Capricorn Full Moon illuminating the sky on Wednesday, family is poised to play a big role this week. To help guide you through the next few days, here are some Stellar Reflection Questions that may yield insight:

Do I shoulder an appropriate amount of responsibility for my family, or do I find myself taking too much or too little responsibility for certain relatives?
What is the role of duty as well as delight when it comes to the way I interact with my relatives?
To whom in my family do my deepest loyalties lie?

In addition to considering the role we play, we may also find ourselves instinctively inventorying contributions of other family members. If you find ourselves with this inclination, try to be more observant than judgmental. This way you can stave off a potential inclination to have responses that may seem too cold and cut-and-dry in the moment. Instead, perceive the nuances of the family dynamic blueprint that are emerging as these may help you to architect well-etched and holistic solutions at a future date.

What’s also highlighted during this Full Moon is the importance of maintaining a balanced sense of perspective. Cancer (where the Sun resides) inspires us to both feel as well as value our feelings. It has flowing, soft, and undulating energy. On the other hand, Capricorn (where the Moon is located) is not focused on feelings but rather on diligent and responsible approaches to accomplishing tangible outcomes. The question becomes how the nurturer (Cancer) and the achiever (Capricorn) can co-exist. One way it can be done is that instead of wallowing in our emotions, we take a serious look at them, inventorying what they may be revealing, including the ways that we can feel more safe, secure, and at home. Once insights are gleaned, see what practical ways you can take action to structure facets of your life so that they will further nourish you.

As the weekend approaches, we may find ourselves in situations that allow us to further understand the interplay inherent within our and others’ families. With the Sun and Mercury uniting in the sign of Cancer, the topics of ancestry, clans, and what has us feel a sense of belonging may captivate our mind. Additionally, we may find ourselves fascinated with the subject of home, including how to best enrich and adorn our own.

Given that numinous Neptune makes a flowing trine alignment to both the Sun and the Moon, the path to understanding shouldn't just rely on being logic but should also embrace a sense of flow. Allow yourself to be, let your mind wander, and see where your dreams take you. By seeing how things feel and using compassion as a compass you will have experiences that connect you with beauty, grace, and love in quite deep and remarkable ways.

Wishing you all my best,
