Sagittarius is the most optimistic, freedom loving sign in the Zodiac. New Moon in Sagittarius is Friday December 11. Sag. is a fire sign and its focus is outward. Bring it on, the more the merrier. After the journey through deep, inner focused Scorpio, it feels as though the bonds have been loosened and we are able to expand, let loose our arrows and fly. Even though my feeling is that this a more contemplative version of Sag this year, I definitely feel the shift from Scorpio.
Jupiter, the planet that rules Sagittarius, is a planet of expansion and excess. To those born under this sign, events may seem larger than life. Tall tales are not intentional, that’s just how it is. They may also have difficulty knowing when to quit. Too much good times, good food, good laughs. Moderation is an appropriate lesson for a Sag.
This is a sign of optimism – the original Pollyanna. We can certainly use some optimism right now – things are getting better for sure, aren’t they…. There is always a silver lining and things will always work out. If there is something in your life that seems not to be working out, take a moment aside, envision the situation and envision the highest and best good outcome as you see it. Then let it go and assume some of Sagittarius’ optimism.
People born under this sign are generally ideas people. They have the big vision. They are the people to talk to for the inspiration, but don’t expect the details to be taken care of or the follow through to happen naturally unless they have a good dose of Virgo in their chart. They are brilliant at what they do, so use this energy to be inspired and see the big picture. Dream a little, or a lot. Next Lunar month we’ll be practical. This is a great time to dream. Light some candles, put on some soft music and let inspiration come. Don’t force it – that’s not the Sagittarius way. Let it flow. Is there a fairy in that candle light – I guess for fire, it would be a salamander, wouldn’t it?
