Cancer Full Moon: High Tide
“Believe in yourself and what you feel. Your power will come from that.” Melissa Etheridge
High tide of ocean emotion
washes feelings,
impressions and memories
upon the shores of our lives.

“…like the sea, you are tidal. You ebb and flow…trust that when you stop fighting the pull of the tide, the ocean in you will bring everything you need.” Martha Beck
There are themes that cycle around with each full moon. At the Cancer Full Moon in 2017, I wrote:

Nourish strength and tenderness
deep within.
