Moon in Sagittarius

Wednesday afternoon through Friday evening

The Moon in Sagittarius throws open her doors this afternoon and invites the world in, flowing energy in trine with Uranus and the Sun in early Aries. The waning trine between the Sun and Moon, the disseminating phase of the lunar cycle, is a time of understanding and insight. Sagittarius is the sign of the philosopher, so this trine with Aries offers an opening for us to process the many changes coming at us.

Thursday, the Moon trines Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius, emphasizing the chance to integrate recent experiences into our philosophy of life. The Moon also flows energy in sextile with Saturn in Libra, the physically manifest world in all its balance and beauty connecting with the fiery enthusiasm of Sagittarius.

Friday morning, the Sagittarius Moon trines Mercury in Aries, sounding the same note of exploring the philosophy behind the sometimes fierce Aries energy now erupting. What messages are we receiving? What do they mean for ourselves and our world?

The Moon will square Mars, a challenge that again focuses on understanding the broader context (Pisces and Sagittarius) and gaining clarity on what we feel (Moon) and what we need to do (Mars). Flowing sextiles with Venus, and then Neptune, in late Aquarius, bring the Moon's transit through Sagittarius to a close. Mutable Fire and fixed Air together, end this time with a chance to approach our big ideas with a new flexibility.

The Moon moves into reliable, determined Capricorn at 9:57pm EDT Friday, ready to put into practice what was learned in Sagittarius.
