Sagittarius New Moon: What Was That Lightening Bolt All About?

The Sagittarius New Moon is here to help us reconnect with the miracles and wisdom – we left behind. With Mercury retrograde in effect for the first part of the month — and Mercury in Sagittarius, no less — it’s time to look back. What are we looking for? MiraclesWisdomConnections! Principles! Integrity! That lesson we forgot, that piece of the puzzle we left behind, that person we dismissed because we thought we knew better — it’s all part of the loot we’re going back for to build a better future.

And it gets even more interesting: with Jupiter in Gemini, Sagittarius’ ruling planet is now in the house of communication and information. It’s go big or go home, babe – and double check your sources. But, a word of caution: watch what you say and how you say it. This is a super important lesson in all this planetary action. What good is wisdom if you don’t hit your mark with it? Aim, my friends. That takes focus, precision, and planning. You know, Sag stuff 🙂

We got this Sag Season energy for a reason right now. Let’s use it!

Mercury and Jupiter’s Cosmic Shift: A Double-Check on Everything

Here’s another thought: each planet has shifted into its opposite sign. Mercury rules Gemini, and Jupiter rules Sagittarius — and with them being in opposite signs, it’s like the Universe is telling us: double-check what you “know”. The universe it like, oh, you know that thing you “know” maybe double, triple check it.  Not just for the facts, but for a gut check: Does it align with your values? Wait, you don’t know what those are? Okay, then, you really gotsta do the work.

Sag is about truth and values, you gotta know what yours are: Not your family or family or community but yours.

With Gemini and Sagittarius teaming up, it’s time for some big smarts and wisdom. Let’s go back and review what we think we know, why we think it, where we learned it, and where it came from. Is it “true”? Is it “real”? Is it “smart”?

What connections did we miss — both personal and informational? Which groups should we revisit? What information did we dismiss too quickly? Was it for the best reason, or was it just ego getting in the way?

This re-look, review, and redo period during Mercury retrograde is always for our benefit. And as it happens in fiery, wise, miracle-making, connection-facilitating Sagittarius, it’s like receiving messages in a bottle from our past. The Universe is trying to send us the clues (information) we need, its messages in a bottle from our past. Be on the lookout and open them!


Sagittarius: A Season for Reflection, Not Just Adventure

I know, we don’t typically think of Sagittarius season as one of reflection, nostalgia, or revisiting the past. But that’s what’s up right now. It’s time to connect with both your brain and your heart and speak the truth. This Jupiter-Mercury-Sagittarius-Gemini combo platter, especially with both Jupiter and Mercury retrograde, is definitely saying: slow your roll. Double-check everything. Triple-check. Maybe even quadruple-check.

And as an extra point on this: Mars in Leo goes retrograde Dec. 6 for two months. Fights due to misplaced anger and egos on high will be very much in the air, so let’s not feed this. Avoid fights! Watch your anger. According to the Kabbalists Sagittarius is linked with anger so when it comes up do the deep breathing, take five, step away, and don’t make it worse. Anger is ok, lashing out is not. Revenge is not. Anger is an alert system, investigate what’s behind it. You may just discover it’s not so righteous after all. And that’s ok because that’s growth! And Sag season is all about that! Sag seeks learning and growth: do that with yourself and what comes up and watch the blessings flow.

And there’s also Jupiter retrograde, as well as Uranus and Neptune. Going inside, depth, looking within, real talk, reviewing…it’s happening in many areas of our life and our collective.


A ‘Coup de Foudre’ Moment: Sag’s Challenge of Commitment

As I write this, a lady in a coffee shop in Montmartre is wearing a scarf by a brand called Coup de Foudre — which translates to a “lightning bolt.” But the meaning is also a sudden, out-of-the-blue strike of passion, like a bolt hits you and you’re in love. But after that lightning strikes, what happens next? Sagittarius, known for impatience, can get caught up in the heat of the moment. Are we using excuses for our impulsive behavior? Are we masking our lack of trust in the universe by trying to do too much?What do we trust?


Tough Talk: Where Are You Not Committing?

Now, let’s get into it. Sagittarius is a sign that can struggle with commitmentresponsibility, and sensitivity. As we review all that’s happening, where are we not committing? Where are we not acting with care and integrity according to our values? Where are we not following through? Where are we not being the person we think we are — or the person we want to be?

It’s real talk time, and Sagittarius doesn’t mess around. It’s time to take off those rose-colored glasses and have a real talk session with yourself.

But here’s the good news: the planet of luck, fortune, abundance, and wisdom is here for this Coup de Foudre transformation. There’s a saying that it only takes the opening of a needle’s eye for everything to change. Sagittarius is all about bringing blessings — believe that.

Be all in.


Sagittarius Season: Bravery, Trust, and Cosmic Order

Sagittarius is a sign of bravery, and they know how to trust in the unseen. And guess what? You can, too. As we enter Sagittarius season, we can borrow that confidence, optimism, and trust in the universe. The universe has got you — always, in all ways. Take aim, commit, and go for it.

It’s actually rather perfect timing (of course, cuz that’s all the universe does).

After Pluto left Capricorn and entered Aquarius on November 19, we entered the shadow of Mercury retrograde. Yes, we left Pluto in Capricorn, but with Mercury (planet of communication and speed) retrograde in Sagittarius, the Universe is like: slow downGo back. You missed some important nuggets.

Yes, exes might resurface (ignore those calls, lol). But beyond that, what from the past 20 years of Pluto in Capricorn are you not yet integrating into your values and how you live your life in practical ways? You learned a lot in this Pluto in Capricorn, are you using it?

Dreams come true all the time — miracles, too, which is Sagittarius Seasons thing. But if you’re still clinging to outdated ways of thinking and limiting beliefs, the ones you’ve learned don’t serve, you haven’t made space for the better life the universe is trying to help you build. Have you made space for it?

Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the taskmaster and lover of rules and structure. Have you learned the lessons Saturn has tried to teach you over the years? Are you a better, more organized person in the “real world”? This review is to find those pearls you may have missed.

And as the North Node transitions out of Aries and Libra next month, have you truly learned all those interpersonal lessons from the South Node in Libra? Have you reconnected with your passions, your dreams, and your true self? Are you all in with that Aries self-confidence and bravado. Because it’s time to get on that level! Sag season is another fire sign here to gas us up – let’s do!

Sagittarius is linked to Chiron, the wounded healer. This information is for us and to heal us. It’s medicine. Let’s take it.


Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius: Time for a Cosmic Re-Evaluation

Yes, Mercury retrograde will cause technology glitches and communication breakdowns. But the key takeaway from it being in Sagittarius is: What wisdom, guidance, or information did we miss? This is a sign of miracles and teaching— so what are we here to learn? What are we here to share? What are we here to become? What do we know is possible?

With Pluto’s recent shift from Capricorn to Aquarius, it’s time to think about community and morals. Sagittarius is all about spiritualityethics, and the rule of law – so great timing! Sag and Aquarius are about standing for something, or else falling for anything. What have you learned over the past 20 years? Over your life? This is a pathway as Pluto in Aquarius takes hold. School is in session, and you’re the pupil, but you have a lot of info to parse, and you know where you’ve missed some lessons. You’re getting another chance to ace it. Miracles are on the line. Let’s effing do this! 


Trust the Universe and Keep Moving Forward: Miracles Await

The Universe is here to guide us. Take the time to review, reflect, and recommit to your higher self and your true path. Sagittarius season brings bold energy, but also a potent invitation to re-examine your beliefs and your values and act from there.

When you trust the process, the miracles you’ve been waiting for will unfold. Trust in yourself. Trust in the cosmos. You’re on the right path.
