Last Call
Like a cosmic bartender, the Sagittarius New Moon announces last call to usher in the final weeks of a very wild and challenging year. Normally, the New Moon represents a time to plant new seeds, with an eye toward seeing your effort bloom at the Full Moon. However, the Solar Eclipse brings us a decidedly different focus. Rather than starting something new, we must instead consciously close the door on any unfinished business. Consider any parts of life you’d like to end with integrity at this time.
Wisdom and Parties
Sagittarius symbolizes two avenues of archetypal energy. On one hand, the Explorer valiantly pursues authentic spiritual wisdom. On the other, this life-of-the-party Jester tells naughty jokes loudly to a crowd. The Eclipse turns this normally gregarious, extroverted expression on its head, directing the attention inward. This means incorporating both higher understanding and a sense of humor into the difficult inner process of emptying out and tying up loose ends. Beware the temptation towards being overly optimistic, or accepting unfounded rumors from the public pulpit. Instead, pause, trust your intuition, and seek a new understanding of things foreign to you.
Your Vision
What do you need to release in order to make space for something new? For this unique New Moon, think about all that you would like to leave in the past. Then, at the Full Moon on December 29th, illuminate your renewed vision for the New Year. Read below for suggestions about where to direct your efforts. Use the sign on your Ascendant if you know it; otherwise use your Sun sign.
