Full Moon in Sagittarius: Moving Towards a Brighter Future From a More Vulnerable and Raw Place

The energy has been intense this week and now we're just about at the Full Moon, which will be taking place in Sagittarius tomorrow June 17th 2019 in the wee small hours in the morning (1:30 am pst) What seeds did you plant in your life around June 3rd? This Full Moon can be a culmination point and time of harvest for some of those things. It's much more than that though, it's a time of major release as it's the last Full Moon before Eclipse season. Yet, a lot of the energy we've had lately is already bringing up themes of the Eclipses. 

A Full Moon happens when the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of the earth. The Moon and Sun are therefore in opposing zodiac signs. This Full Moon we are dealing with the Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun in Gemini. This axis has a lot to do with our minds, beliefs and communication/expression. Lately a lot of different emotions, emotional issues, desires and restrictions have been coming up in the astrology. With this Full Moon we need to take a look at certain beliefs and thought patterns that aren't serving us as well so that we can release them. 

With the Sun in Gemini during the Full Moon it is important to see what the ruler of Gemini, which is Mercury, is up to. Mercury is in Cancer at the moment and has been a big player lately. It's latest aspect it's about to make at the time of the Full Moon is a conjunction to Mars in Cancer. There's still a tremendous amount of emotions around during the Full Moon. So many layers of feelings, desires and now even thoughts and beliefs we've had are bubbling up to the surface to be acknowledged, released, felt and expressed. It's a powerful time, but it can be overwhelming There's so many blocks to be lifted, so much to be cleared. Perhaps so much to say. There may be a lot to be communicated and expressed. With Mercury and Mars in Cancer it could come off as quite emotional or even snappy at this time. Feelings and desires want to be expressed. Decisions could even need to be made. The road to expression could really be opening up. Things could be confusing though, which leads me to my next point. 

While emotions are coming up, people are having revelations about themselves, desires are making themselves known and people are expressing more, there still may be things that aren't clear. This is because the Jupiter and Neptune square is continuing and Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius, which is the sign the Moon is in. So much may be making itself known to you and you may be cracking open, but perhaps it's not best to assume you know the truths of situations. Although, it is important to seek the truth at this time and use discernment.

Sagittarius is also a sign that's about the future and Jupiter it's ruling planet is about expansion. You could see this time of release as a doorway opening you up to your future and towards new horizons. As you become more in touch with your feelings, express yourself and release the old you are cracking yourself open. There's an ability to burst through and open up towards life in a new way, towards new experiences and a bright future. There can be an optimistic quality to this energy. Yet, getting to that place, looking at the rest of this energy, isn't easy. You have to be willing to deal with a lot of layers and feelings if you want to burst forth into that bright future. 

This time it's not enough to just be bright and cheerful and to start going on your merry way with a bounce in your step. The bright future exists if you're not afraid to deal with things in your soul that may be uncomfortable first. Otherwise it will not be fulfilling. Peel back these layers. Allow the release. Look at your darkness. Let yourself be vulnerable. Let yourself be raw and then you will be ready for that bright future. You may not be walking towards it with a bounce in your step and a happy tune on your lips. You may be walking towards it with trepidation and a bit of fear as you feel how vulnerable you truly are. The point is that you show up and keep going. Keep your face to the sun anyways. It's time for the new. It's time to feel. To release. To be open. To show up vulnerable. Set aside the armor. Are you ready for the challenge? 

Full Moon in Sagittarius: Where's Your Head At?

On Tuesday May 29th 2018 we are having a Full Moon in Sagittarius! This is a Full Moon that is dealing with the axis of the mind. 

The Full Moon in Sagittarius is made up of the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius. With both these signs highlighted it's really important that we release any thought patterns that aren't serving us anymore. Beliefs that we have that aren't serving us as well. This past week we had a trine between Mercury and Pluto urging us to transform our thought processes. This Full Moon has a bit of a similar purpose. Mercury is the planet that rules Gemini and the mind. At the time of the Full Moon it will be at the last degree of Taurus. This means it's time to let go of any stubborn thinking you're hanging on to! Gemini and Mercury also have to do with communication, so this is a good time to release any communication blockages. 

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and has to do with expansion. Is anything in the way of you expanding and growing? Particularly on an inner level as Jupiter is retrograde in Scorpio currently. It's important that we all continually evolve and transform. Now is a time to question whether you feel like you're doing that. Sagittarius's symbol is that of an archer pointing an arrow towards a future target. What do you want in you future? What do you need to release in order to have that future? Are any thought patterns in particular preventing you from having the future you desire? 

Gemini and Sagittarius represent the axis of the mind. Gemini represents the 'lower mind' and Sagittarius represents the 'higher mind'. It's important to find balance between these two mental spheres. Let yourself see the bigger picture with the Sagittarius energy. Let yourself find meaning in it all, instead of getting too caught up in little facts and what not. 

The only aspects that the Full Moon makes this month are flowing aspects to the Nodes. With the South Node in Aquarius we are asked whether we are sharing our minds and our magnificent ideas with others. It's important to do so! Don't keep them to yourself. With the North Node in Leo we are asked to be more authentic! Communicate authentically and move towards a future that lines up with your authentic self. Sagittarius has to do with the truth as well, which flows nicely together with the idea of being more authentic. Release anything that doesn't align with your inner truth. 

Full Moon in Sagittarius: Which Direction Are You Headed In?

On June 9th (2017 at 6:10 PM PST) there will be a Full Moon in Sagittarius! Life is beginning to move forward now, and we must decide what direction we would like it to go in. 

The Moon will be at 18 degrees Sagittarius and the Sun will be at 18 degrees Gemini. The Sagittarius and Gemini axis is the axis of thinking and knowledge. Gemini is highlighting the focus on the details and on gathering information. Sagittarius is focused on the big picture and what it all means. These two energies may be a bit at odds, so it's up to you to balance and integrate this energy.

To integrate this energy, use the Gemini solar energy to gather all the information you can, to explore your options. Then tap into that Sagittarius lunar energy to make a decision about where you would like to go. Set some goals and to see the bigger picture of where you would like to go. Become in alignment with your inner truth and act accordingly. 

A lot may be culminating at this time as Full Moons are a time of harvest and culmination. As the Moon wanes though, it becomes a time to let go of some outdated things. As far as letting go with this Full Moon, it's important to release outdated thought patterns and beliefs. It's a really good time to clear out that mental space. 

Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, is turning direct on the same day. This is a very beneficial energy and infuses the energy with possibility. Some people may start to feel like luck is on their side again depending on how it affects your personal astrology. For awhile there has been more inner growth, but now we may see that growth reflect in our outer life as well. With Jupiter in Libra, this could bring some more beneficial energy to relationships. 

Speaking of relationships, there is a sweet hookup between Mars and Venus this day as well. Venus in Taurus will be making a sextile to Mars in Cancer. This is a sexy and sweet energy for relationships. Venus is Taurus is very attuned to the sensual side of love, while Mars in Cancer is great for feeling cuddly. This could be a nice evening or even weekend for a romantic date, although staying at home with a loved one could be quite romantic as well with this comfort loving combo. 

Full Moon in Sagittarius: Finding Freedom From Emotional Wounds

On June 12th 2014 at 9:11 PM (PDT) there will be a Full Moon in Sagittarius. As with all Full Moons this will be a an important time to release. The Full Moon will be loosely square Chiron so the important thing to release this time around is old wounds that are no longer serving you to hold onto. Neptune and Mercury both being retrograde in water signs have probably already brought any old feelings and wounds to the surface, now with the Full Moon we are able to release them. Once we release them we will have more freedom and room to expand, which is the goal of the Full Moon is Sagittarius. Also with this Full Moon we may feel a little extra emotional because of the water sign retrogrades. 

Another thing that is happening in the stars at the same time as the Full Moon and affecting the energy surrounding it, is that Saturn in Scorpio is opposing Venus in Taurus. This could possibly manifest as trying to stabilize and ground relationships. It could also manifest as having to deal with and release any control issues in relationships. A good question to ask yourself is "Are my relationships controlling me?". If you are revolving your life around a certain relationship, it's time to re-balance, so that you can have more freedom to be you, which is what the Sagittarius Full Moon wants you to do! 

On a side note, I have realized , since my fiancé is a big soccer fan, that the Fifa World Cup starts on the same day as the Full Moon! This is particularly significant because Sagittarius has to do with travel and foreign relations. It also is one of the more athletic signs. How funny is that? 

Anyways, remember to release those old wounds and re-balance your relationships so as to bring expansion and more freedom into your life with this Full Moon. The power to do this is all in your hands!
