The spirit of Sagittarius represents positive expansion. After going inward, and deep, for Scorpio season, the archer asks us to come up and take a big breath of fresh air. Maybe you were able to have a healing moment through Scorpio and now it is time to put that into practice.
I believe one of the most important things Sagittarius asks of us is honesty. Are you living truthfully and authentically? And if not, what kind of shift will it take to get there. This season asks us to remain open and see through the eyes of a student. How can you listen and learn from others? And how will that in turn, help you to expand? Just remember that in doing so you must trust the process and at times take a leap of faith. The archer does not over think before they act. They simply trust that they will be better for the journey, no matter how it ends.
The new moon in Sagittarius will occur on Wednesday, November 23rd at 5:57 pm ET. All new moons are a great time for setting intentions however, this one is delightfully potent, as Jupiter will be stationing direct and trining (forming a triangle) with the Sun and Moon. Jupiter represents luck, expansion, and faith- so come on Barbie, let's go party!
Use these energies to write intentions bigger than you would normally allow yourself to dream or admit. Don't be afraid of failing or falling as you write them down and do not over think. If you are having trouble writing your intentions, try free flow writing. Put your pen to the paper and start with the sentence "I am ready to..." See what comes out and keep writing for as long as feels necessary. My guess is, by doing so, you will find one or two things that give you a ping of excitement. Intentions can be short term or long term goals. Don't shy away from the thing that makes your palms a bit sweaty. Everything happens for us when we are ready. And so, if and when it opens up and happens for you, you are ready.
Under the dark moon sky, I recommend doing any or all of the following:
-Set your crystals out for a good old fashion energy bath
-Light a candle to represent the fiery nature of Sagittarius. Add a spell if you feel inclined
-Do a 5-10 minute meditation. That could mean just sitting or laying still and closing your eyes. You don't have to have the next great idea or a completely blank mind. The point is to just sit with yourself. Try thinking of one thing- an intention, how you could like to grow, etc, and then drift through that thought for the allotted time. See where your mind takes you.
Magick can be as simple or complex as we make it. But in the end, it truly is everywhere
