Tuesday December 3rd, 2013 is New Moon in Sagittarius. Have you felt a difference in the energy over the last week (since we moved into Sagittarius)? I’ve found it to be lighter and a bit easier.
Going through the Constellations – the astrology signs – is like taking a healing journey. Every month we are supported to focus on a specific area we need/want to heal. We’ve just come out of the deep feeling of the water sign of Scorpio into the lighter, more spontaneous feeling Sagittarius – a fire sign. It’s a break between two heavier energies.
Our journey through Scorpio is transformational. When we move into Sagittarius we bring that transformation into light. There is a sense of freedom that comes with this move, something that is very important to Sagittarius. People born under this sign do not like to be tied down or constricted. If you try they are likely to walk away.
Sag is the truth seeker of the Zodiac. They are drawn to the study of the law, of religion, spirituality in their search. But there is also the inner truth that we are now able to connect with through our journey in Scorpio. Getting in touch with more of our truth, who we are, we then need to learn how to express it. This is highlighted by Sag’s frankness and direct communication. Sometimes they veer into bluntness and lack of tact. Don’t take offense – they’re still learning. A true Sag doesn’t have a mean bone in their body; they just don’t always think before they open their mouths.
People born under the sign of Sagittarius are big picture people. They tend not to be detail 
oriented, so may take shortcuts or be a bit careless. They are ruled by Jupiter and just got released from the underworld of Scorpio. They are an expansive sign, so things tend to be bigger than life when they are telling the story. Sometimes they exaggerate a bit.
Physically, Sagittarius rules the hips, liver and upper legs, those parts that keep us strong and flexible.
If you are setting intent this New Moon, here are some samples:
- I am asking to speak my truth in a compassionate and aware manner, showing tact when appropriate.
- I am asking to be aware of and take care of the details in my life with dedication and joy.
- I am asking for the opportunity and means to travel to someplace warm this winter.
- I am asking to understand the cause of the problem with my hips/liver and to be able to learn what I need to learn in order to heal.
