The Waxing Moon is the phase where intentions begin to stretch beyond their original shape. What started as a seed now wants room to grow, explore, and evolve.


When the Waxing Moon moves through Sagittarius, growth happens through inspiration, curiosity, and a renewed sense of possibility. This is a time to reconnect with meaning, broaden your perspective, and take action fueled by enthusiasm rather than obligation.


Sagittarius reminds you that growth accelerates when you believe there is more ahead.


Why the Waxing Moon Matters

The Waxing Moon supports:

  • Momentum

  • Focused expansion

  • Active engagement with your intentions


Look back at your New Moon intentions and choose one or two that feel energizing and uplifting. Sagittarius grows through purpose.


Ask yourself:

  • What feels exciting or meaningful right now?

  • Where do I want to explore further?

  • What belief about what’s possible needs strengthening?


Sagittarius teaches that optimism is a practice, not a personality trait.


Sagittarius Energy: Visionary, Adventurous, Truth-Seeking

Sagittarius is a fire sign associated with exploration, wisdom, and ethical growth. Its symbol, the Archer, represents aiming toward a distant goal with trust in the journey. Sagittarius energy values truth, freedom, and experiences that expand understanding.


Sagittarius energy supports:

  • Big-picture thinking

  • Learning and teaching

  • Exploration and travel

  • Faith in the process

  • Ethical alignment


When on an upward-spiral, Sagittarius is hopeful, generous, and forward-looking. When on a downward-spiral, it becomes overextend and or avoids follow-through. The Waxing Moon helps anchor inspiration into intentional movement.


The Mood of the Sagittarius Moon

When the Moon is in Sagittarius, the tone becomes:

  • Optimistic

  • Honest

  • Spontaneous

  • Curious


This is a good time to:

  • Break routine in healthy ways

  • Learn something new

  • Engage with different perspectives

  • Spend time outdoors or in motion

  • Revisit beliefs, goals, or guiding principles


Sagittarius thrives when life feels like a journey.


Working With the Waxing Moon in Sagittarius

Sagittarius asks you to nourish intentions through inspired action.


Consider:

  • What direction am I moving toward?

  • Where do I need to trust myself more?

  • What step would renew my sense of purpose?


This phase supports exploration with intention. You need a direction that feels alive, the answers will reveal themselves on the journey.


Turning Sagittarius Energy Into SMART Goals

Sagittarius thrives when goals feel meaningful, motivating, and aligned with values. During this Waxing Moon, choose a goal that expands your perspective, fuels curiosity, or strengthens faith in yourself.


Use the YesSpiral SMART Goal framework to refine one intention.


SMART Goals, the YesSpiral Way

Specific

What are you exploring, learning, or expanding?


Measurable

What tells you that your world is getting bigger? Think experiences gained, actions taken, perspectives shifted.


Attainable

What inspired action can you realistically take?


Relevant

Why does this goal matter to your sense of purpose or truth?


Timed

Choose a container:

  • One moonth

  • One season

  • One New Moon to Full Moon cycle

  • One year


Sagittarius prefers timelines that allow momentum and discovery.


Example

Instead of:

“I want to feel more inspired.”


Try:

“I will dedicate one evening each week this moonth to learning, writing, or exploring a topic that expands my worldview.”


Energizing. Purpose-driven. Sagittarius-approved.
