"The traditional Full Moon names for December are Full Cold Moon or Full Long Nights Moon, because this is the month when winter cold truly begins to fasten its grip, and nights are at their longest and darkest. It is also sometimes called the Moon before Yule. The term Long Night Moon is a doubly appropriate name because the midwinter night is indeed long, and because the Moon is above the horizon for a long time. The midwinter full Moon has a high trajectory across the sky because it is opposite a low Sun.
This year, there are actually two Full Moons in December. The first will take place on December 2. The second will appear on New Year’s Eve, December 31. Only the first of the two will take December’s Full Moon name. The second will be called the Blue Moon. It’s not winter’s cold that makes this New Year’s Eve’s Moon “blue,” though. Blue Moon is the name traditionally given when two Full Moons occur during the same month." -the Farmer's Almanac
Welcome Gemini Full Moon, December 6th at 4:26am (PST). Feeling at a critical juncture? With the Gemini Full Moon we reach a culmination about spiritual matters. Conflict, division, and questioning core beliefs will present us with choices on how to resolve these important matters impacting our lives. The potential here is for opening up so the rigidity that is weighing us down can be dissipated. In the process we may find new perspectives and alternative ways to interpret current challenges. This full moon highlights spiritual transformation and your relationship with your Higher Power. It's all about questioning your purposefulness or lack thereof, being open to guidance, and finally saying good-bye to what's not working in your life.
The Full Moon in Gemini precedes the six of the critical seven squares that have been oppressively operational since 2012 on December 14th in Aries and Capricorn. This square reinforces the Full Moon's message of leading a spirit centered life as an anecdote to fear and feeling disconnected. Realizing we have a divine nature supports us to make heart-based decisions which diminish competition and encourage cooperation. Time to ignore what might be true for the underlying gut instinct telling us what is really tearing us apart. Thus, this will be a Full Moon to pray, meditate, and commune with spirit. Listen carefully and act compassionately.
