Love is all that matters in Cancer world right now and that’s exactly what you’ll get this full moon.

Let go of… Fear of change and/or commitment.
Scorpio
23 October–21 November
You’ve got a story to tell, Scorpio, and this full moon is here to remind you that it needs to be told.

Your transformation lies on the other side of a secret shared.
Let go of… Worrying about the judgement of others.
Sagittarius
22 November–21 December
You’ve never really been the ‘money makes the world go round’ type, Sagittarius…until now. This full moon invites you to aim a bit higher with your goals for the future and, most importantly, know your worth. You have way more to offer than you realise and it’s time to level up.
Let go of… Money chaos and unopened bank statements.
Capricorn
21 December–19 January
A second full moon in your sign is the ideal opportunity to double down on dreaming up your future. Forget what you can do for other people and think about what you can do for yourself, Capricorn. This full moon is all about being honest about what you want, switching things up and pushing forwards.
Let go of… An old version of yourself… to make way for the new.
Aquarius
20 January–17 February
This full moon is all about letting go of past hurts and moving on with your life. And that means it’s time to finish what you started last month, get closure and say goodbye to something you know is not meant for you. The future starts here, Aquarius. Open your eyes and take the first step towards a whole new world.
Let go of… False friends and fakers.
Pisces
18 February–19 March
You might not feel ready to put yourself out there but this full moon is determined to make it happen. It’s time for your work to reach a bigger audience and for you to expand your social circle in new directions. But it’s not going to happen while you’re sat at home staring into the middle distance. Take a chance, make a move and be brave, Pisces.
Let go of… Your issues with self promotion and just do it.
