New Moon in Sagittarius

A new moon cycle awaits for you on Saturday morning

Heralding beginnings and openings

As you turn a new page in your journey of life.

Your ancestors, who lived in a world before electricity

Would have experienced a life more entwined with the Moon

And intuitively the dark sky of the New Moon

Would have been a time of reflection and introversion.

And while we are no longer solely guided by the lunar light

Your cells will still feel the call to this ancient nocturnal rhythm of wisdom and mystery

So creating space away from the busyness will have far reaching consequences

As this is the time each month to dream

To enter the darkness and see what in your life is ripe for change

(Look at where 12 degrees of Sagittarius sits in your chart as this is the area of your life being directly influenced)

Because New Moons are made for intention setting

To send your wishes, desires and hopes far and wide

And to increase this lunar potency

This Moon is also a total solar eclipse.

Eclipses are pivot points in your life

They represent the highs and lows

As they bring big shifts in energy

And while they can be connected to break downs

Ultimately they will help you break through-

To move move forward

By following your path of destiny

Especially if you have unconsciously veered off track

And as this Moon is in Sagittarius

This mutable fire sign brings hope, optimism and faith

Because this New Moon is ruled by Jupiter – the most expansive and jovial planet of the solar system

It’s here to help lift the universal energy with it’s cheery nature.

And one of the gifts that this Sagittarius moon cycle brings

Is a desire to break outdated beliefs

To release those stagnating behaviours that confine you to routine or apathy.

Because this New Moon wants you to progress and see a wider perspective.

To ask the big questions of life.

Because Sagittarius is a seeker of truth

It wants to believe in something bigger than what is offered by day to day life.

And finally this sign is represented by the archer.

However not just any archer

This is a centaur – half human, half horse – creatures which were regarded as the intellectuals of ancient Roman mythology

These centaurs aimed their arrows upwards, towards the gods

As they desired divine inspiration and knowledge

So where will you aim your arrow on Saturday morning?

What will this new chapter look like?

Because in just six months time, we have the Full Moon in Sagittarius

And you can see exactly where your arrows landed.
