Sagittarius New Moon: Exploring Life with Adventure and Optimism

Sagittarius Moonth - December 1st through December 30th.

The Sagittarius New Moon occurs at 9°33' of Sagittarius, inviting us to embrace deep understanding, communing with nature, freedom, and optimism.

Sagittarius, the ninth sign of the zodiac, represents exploration, optimism, and a commitment to personal values and moral development. Known as the Archer, Sagittarius points its arrow toward distant horizons, seeking knowledge, wisdom, and freedom. This sign encourages us to push boundaries, both mentally and physically, and to pursue life with an open, curious mind. Sagittarius energy inspires confidence, enthusiasm, and a drive to explore philosophy, spirituality, and personal beliefs.

This moonth, we are called to embrace Sagittarius' expansive and optimistic spirit—to think big and set bold goals beyond our comfort zone. To nurture our dreams through spiritual practices that keep us connected to our vision, celebrate our progress and connections, and release anything disrupting harmony to create space for clarity and alignment.

The Sagittarius moonth also prepares us for the Capricorn New Moon that follows, setting us up for disciplined and ambitious growth. As the autumn season wraps up, it is a good time to make space for the next cycle: a new moon, a new season, and a new year. Capricorn’s energy will guide us to set structured, long-term goals and take practical steps towards our visions. By aligning with both Sagittarius' expansive spirit and Capricorn’s grounded focus, we set ourselves up to expand our horizons and manifest our ambitions with clarity and intention
