This Month’s New Moon in Sagittarius Encourages Us To Take a Leap of Faith—Here’s What It Means for Your Sign
New moons mark the beginning of the lunar cycle, making them a time to plant seeds, explore new ideas, and align our actions with our desires. As a fire sign, Sagittarius is in no short supply of hope, passion, and enthusiasm. This new moon marks the promising start of something that will put the wind back in our sails. It’s time to zoom out and take a look at the larger picture. You’ve got the confidence and courage to pursue your goals under these moonbeams, and it’s time to take a risk!
The new moon in Sagittarius also reminds us that playing it safe rarely leads to rewards. It’s time to explore uncharted territory and try new things. Where have you become too stuck or stagnant in your life? It’s time to set new ambitions for yourself and chase after them boldly. Like the Archer, aim sky high–Sagittarius reminds us that we are full of limitless potential!
Other key astrological transits during this time will make this exploration period easier. Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion, is in charge of this new moon, and it will be ending its retrograde and stationing direct on the same day. This signals a turning point in our faith and beliefs. Roadblocks dissipate and we’re able to gain insight on the best way to move forward. This turning point could represent a shift in our personal philosophy, reconnection with spiritual practices, or even an interest to pursue a new skill or subject of interest. One thing's for sure: We’re eager to expand and soak up as much wisdom as possible.
On the day of the new moon, Jupiter will be mingling with Neptune, the planet of compassion, healing, romance, and creativity. Our capacity to dream big is unmatched. Not only can we dream it, but we will be able to feel into our desires and our future timeline–the ability to embody our manifestations before they actually transpire is key to the manifestation process.
