🌕 Capricorn Full Moon Magic
Big energy. Bold truth. Beautiful release.
July 10, 2025
Hi moon babes 🌝✨ I’m Laura—a psychic medium, intuitive astrologer, and your nightly cosmic guide.
Whether you’re visiting for the first time or you’ve been checking in with me for a while, I’m so glad you’re here.
Today’s Full Moon is no ordinary lunar moment. It’s the only Full Moon in Capricorn this year, and it’s arriving with undeniable power—peaking at 4:35 PM ET. Traditionally known as the Buck Moon, this lunar phase marks the time when deer begin to grow new antlers—a symbol of strength, renewal, and rising into who you’re meant to become.
Capricorn energy is about growth with purpose. It’s the part of us that wants to build something real—whether that’s a dream, a boundary, or a life that actually feels aligned.
So let’s talk about what makes today’s Full Moon so potent—and how you can work with it to release what’s been holding you back and reconnect to your own power.
💫 Today’s Full Moon Vibes, Made Simple
🌕 The Moon is full in Capricorn
Capricorn brings grounded, structured energy. It invites us to zoom out, take responsibility, and get clear about what’s actually worth our effort. This Full Moon may highlight pressure you’ve been carrying—around work, stability, identity, or self-worth—that’s no longer serving you.
☀️ The Sun is in sensitive, nurturing Cancer
Sitting opposite the Moon, the Cancer Sun wants emotional connection, safety, and softness. It’s the part of you that wants to curl up in a blanket and cry (or journal, or finally speak your truth). While Capricorn says “push through,” Cancer says “pause and feel.”
⚖️ This moon calls for balance
This Full Moon pulls on the tension between two major themes:
• 🏡 Home vs. Hustle
• 💔 Emotional safety vs. Emotional suppression
• 🧗♀️ Climbing the mountain vs. asking, “Do I even want this mountain?”
It’s okay to feel stretched between two parts of yourself. This moon isn’t asking you to choose one over the other—it’s asking you to honor both and find a path that feels like you.
🔍 Bonus Astro Highlights (aka: the supporting cast)
✨ Moon trine Mars in Virgo – Motivation meets grounded momentum. A great time to finish what you started, clear your space, or take action that helps you feel more aligned and capable.
✨ Sun trine North Node in Pisces – Tiny choices today can shift your entire trajectory. This is soul-aligned progress—trust where you’re being pulled.
✨ Venus in Gemini is activated – With Venus making 10 key aspects, you might feel extra aware of what you value in love, friendship, communication, and money. Expect unexpected clarity or conversation.
✨ Uranus on the Midheaven – Breakthroughs, shake-ups, and career clarity may come through suddenly. Stay open to inspired detours.
✨ Yod (Finger of God) pointing to Virgo Rising – A quiet redirection may be guiding you toward something fated. Don’t dismiss the small signs or subtle shifts—they matter.
🌩️ The Deeper Meaning of the Buck Moon
Also known as the Thunder Moon, this lunation often brings emotional storms—but in the best way. It stirs up the stuff that’s ready to be cleared, so you can stand stronger, clearer, and more whole.
Capricorn is a sign of maturity and integrity. And this Full Moon says:
“You’ve carried enough. You’ve done the work. Now… what are you ready to release so you can rise?”
This is a moment to let go of:
• 🚫 The pressure to constantly perform
• 🚫 Old definitions of success that no longer match who you are
• 🚫 Emotional armor that’s become too heavy to wear
🌙 Your Reminder from the Universe
💥 You are allowed to evolve.
💥 You are allowed to rest without guilt.
💥 You are allowed to stop striving for things you no longer want.
💥 You are allowed to say: “This version of me no longer fits—and that’s okay.”
Capricorn energy may be strong—but you are stronger. And the most powerful thing you can do tonight?
Stop climbing the wrong mountain.
Breathe. Recenter. Let go.
And give the next version of you the space to rise—with truth, grace, and moonlight behind her.
🌕 What’s Rising to the Surface for You?
Every Full Moon brings something into the light. Sometimes it’s clarity, sometimes it’s emotion, sometimes it’s a truth we’ve been avoiding—but always, it’s an invitation to release what no longer fits and return to what feels right.
This Capricorn Full Moon is about emotional maturity, personal accountability, and redefining what success means to you. You may notice feelings rising around your identity, responsibilities, or how hard you’ve been pushing to “hold it all together.”
To get the most out of this energy, check not just your Sun sign (core self), but also your Moon sign (emotions) and Rising sign (how you move through life). Each one reveals a different layer of what’s asking to shift.
Here’s what this Full Moon might be spotlighting for your sign—and how to work with it intentionally:
⸻
♈ Aries
You’ve outgrown the version of success you used to chase.
This Full Moon lands in your career and legacy zone. You might be reflecting on your long-term goals, how others see you, or where your ambition has been misaligned with your values.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Let go of outdated goals or pressure to prove yourself. Set one bold, clear intention that reflects who you are now—not who you used to be.
⸻
♉ Taurus
Your beliefs are evolving—and so are you.
This moon illuminates your perspective, growth path, and truth. You may feel the tension between staying where it’s safe and answering a bigger internal call.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Say yes to one new experience, idea, or belief that expands your view of what’s possible. Growth starts where comfort ends.
⸻
♊ Gemini
You’re carrying more than you need to.
This Full Moon highlights your energetic and emotional exchanges—shared resources, intimacy, boundaries, and burdens.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Identify what’s draining you (emotionally, financially, energetically). Visualize yourself releasing it. You don’t have to carry it anymore.
⸻
♋ Cancer
Your relationships are reflecting your healing.
With the Full Moon in your opposite sign, you may feel pulled to evaluate how you show up in relationships—and how others show up for you.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Ask: Does this connection feel mutual, supportive, and true? Let your heart answer honestly. Write down what you need from partnership moving forward.
⸻
♌ Leo
It’s time to reset your rhythm.
This Full Moon focuses on your routines, health, and how you manage your energy day to day. Burnout or imbalance may be bubbling up for review.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Choose three non-negotiables that support your well-being. Keep it simple. Let your body lead the reset.
⸻
♍ Virgo
Joy is not a luxury—it’s a need.
This moon lights up your creativity, pleasure, and inner child. If joy feels distant, this is your sign to call it back.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Do something purely because it lights you up. Not because it’s productive. Not because someone else benefits. Just for you.
⸻
♎ Libra
You’re being called inward.
This Full Moon lands in your home and emotional foundation zone. Old memories, family patterns, or a desire for deeper stability might rise to the surface.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Tend to your emotional safety. Nurture your space. Do one thing that helps your nervous system feel held.
⸻
♏ Scorpio
Speak your truth—even if it shakes things up.
This moon activates your voice, mindset, and communication. Something that’s been sitting on your chest may need to be said, written, or released.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Write what you’ve been holding in—even if it’s messy. You don’t have to send it. But you do have to let it move.
⸻
♐ Sagittarius
You’re being asked to invest in yourself differently.
Themes of worth, values, and stability are coming into focus. Are you building your life around what truly supports you—or just what’s familiar?
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Say aloud: “I am worthy of more.” Then take one small, grounded step toward a life that reflects that truth.
⸻
♑ Capricorn
You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
This is your Full Moon—your yearly moment of emotional clarity and personal reflection. Old pressure, perfectionism, and identity stories may be surfacing.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Write down one story or expectation you’re ready to release. Burn, tear, or bury it. Then name one truth you’re claiming in its place.
⸻
♒ Aquarius
Healing happens in stillness too.
This Full Moon moves through your subconscious and spiritual realm. You may feel foggy, tired, or introspective. That’s not weakness—it’s wisdom.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Protect your peace. Take space. Let silence be your medicine. Your soul is sorting things out behind the scenes.
⸻
♓ Pisces
Your circles are shifting—and so is your sense of purpose.
This moon lights up your friendships, community, and long-term vision. You may be craving deeper alignment or realizing some connections no longer reflect who you’re becoming.
🌕 Full Moon Tip: Honor where your energy feels alive. Reach out to someone who reflects your growth—or lovingly release what no longer does.
🔮 Spirit’s Message for the Capricorn Full Moon
Truth. Healing. Realignment. (And a gentle nudge from your higher self.)
This morning, under the energy of the Capricorn Full Moon, I pulled three cards to ask Spirit what we’re being called to feel, face, and remember. Whether you’re reading this with your first sip of coffee or catching it under moonlight tonight, this message is here to guide you through the emotions this lunation may stir—and to remind you: you’re not alone in what you’re feeling.
🌕 The Moon
Keywords: emotional fog, hidden truths, deep intuition, the subconscious bubbling up
This card showing up under a Full Moon is… spot on. It speaks to the moments when your mind says, “I’m fine,” but your body whispers, “Actually… we need to feel this.”
Capricorn is often the one holding it together, pushing forward, staying in control. But this card asks us to pause and tune in. There’s something beneath the surface asking for your attention—not to overwhelm you, but to free you.
Spirit says:
“You don’t have to fake fine. You don’t have to carry it all in silence. You’re safe to feel.”
🧘♀️ Moonlight Tip:
Find a quiet moment. Close your eyes. Ask:
What emotions have I been stuffing down just to function?
Let them rise—without judgment. Write them down. Let it out.
💸 Nine of Pentacles (Reversed)
Keywords: overworking, burnout, proving your worth, craving support
This card shows up when we’ve been stretching ourselves too thin—trying to hold it all, manage it all, prove we’re okay. And under a Capricorn Moon? That pressure can feel extra heavy.
But support doesn’t make you weaker. It makes you human. You don’t have to earn rest, joy, or softness.
Spirit says:
“You don’t have to hustle for your worth. You already are enough—exactly as you are.”
💡 Grounding Tip:
Ask yourself:
Where am I overextending to feel valuable? What would it feel like to rest—even just a little—today?
Let your nervous system guide the answer.
✨ The Star
Keywords: hope, healing, alignment, trust in what’s next
After the release… comes the renewal. The Star is the soft exhale after a hard season. It brings reassurance that your healing is already in motion—and that just because you can’t see the outcome yet, doesn’t mean you’re lost.
Spirit says:
“You’re healing in real time. You’re not behind. You’re in bloom.”
🌟 Feel-Good Tip:
Write yourself a “hope letter.” Imagine it’s from your future self—the one who made it through. Let them remind you: You’re doing better than you think.
🌕 What This Full Moon Is Really About
Capricorn is often linked with responsibility, hard work, and being the one who gets it done. But this Full Moon offers a different kind of strength—one that comes from honesty, release, and choosing peace over pressure.
It asks you to stop holding it all together and start asking:
✨ What if I didn’t have to?
Let this Full Moon help you:
• Let go of emotional weight you’ve been “managing” instead of healing.
You don’t need to keep it buried to stay strong. You’re allowed to feel and let it go.
• Release responsibilities that were never truly yours.
Whether it’s emotional labor, family dynamics, or unspoken roles—what you inherited is not what you’re meant to carry forever.
• Choose devotion that doesn’t cost your peace.
Real love, real purpose, real alignment doesn’t drain you. It supports you. You can be committed and calm.
Let this be your permission to put some of that weight down—and walk forward lighter.
🌙 Capricorn Full Moon Check-In
Ask yourself:
• Where am I holding it all together out of habit—not truth?
• What emotional weight have I carried silently for too long?
• What outdated version of success am I finally ready to outgrow?
Capricorn energy is here to help you rebuild from truth, not pressure. To release what no longer fits, and make room for something that does.
🌕 Your Full Moon Affirmation
“I release the pressure to prove. I trust the version of me that’s rising.”
Say it. Write it. Let it settle into your heart. Let it replace the old noise with something softer—and stronger.
✨ Mini Ritual: Release + Realign
You don’t need anything fancy. Just your intention and a few quiet minutes.
1. Light a candle, or sit beneath the sky.
2. Write down something you’re ready to release—a belief, pressure, habit, or fear.
3. Tear it, burn it safely, or bury it in the earth.
4. Then write: “I now make space for ______.”
(Peace. Joy. Support. Success on your terms. Whatever your soul needs.)
Let yourself feel the shift, even if it’s small. That’s the beauty of the Full Moon: it doesn’t shout. It moves us—gently, deeply, and with love.
