Revelations abound with this full moon. Sometimes we need reminders of all that we don’t know to expand our perspective and increase our feelings of awe at the incredible act of just being alive on a spinning ball that happens to be just the right distance from the Sun to sustain life. We owe our existence to the fact that plants can create food out of sunlight and air. It’s miraculous, and when we get bogged down in the day-to-day details (and our phones), we get tunnel vision and don’t contemplate the horizon and this beautiful world enough. Sagittarius comes to remind us to nurture the inner explorer, of our consciousness, and also of the world at large.
The downside of the dynamic, fiery energy of this full moon is that you need to be mindful of where you may be coming off as pushy. It may be difficult to access your reserves of patience during this full moon, and honestly, you might not even want to. Boldness is required to define your space and ambitions. Just remember others are being bold now too, and you would do well to allow them the space you are also asking for to explore your untapped potential.
Some aspect of your relationship patterns needs transforming as you lead up to Venus opposing Pluto on 6.5. Expect intense feelings as you sort out a new normal with your beloved. Keep in mind that Sagittarius is not known for their listening skills. One of their shadow behaviors, especially in intimacy, is to be thinking about how they are right and outlining their argument while the other person is talking. Or another one is to rescue and be the heroic figure when someone is in trouble, offering advice and a fix-it mentality when simple acknowledgment of the other person’s experience would increase intimacy and trust. If you encounter these behaviors in yourself and/or in others, bring in the Gemini polarity of curiosity and exploration. Pay attention when you want to run away/escape from difficult feelings. Stay in the ring with those you care about to shed unconscious relationship patterns that are no longer serving you.
There are opportunities to take the inspiring and galvanizing aspects of this full moon and make something of them, with the ruler, Jupiter, sextile Saturn and Mars trine the Moon. The path from dream to reality may be much shorter than you think. Take some action and make a commitment to see things through to best channel this energy.
Questions to Ponder: In what ways might I approach a relationship challenge with questions and curiosity versus making judgments and assumptions about someone else’s behavior? Where do I feel called to explore and expand my perspective? How might I increase feelings of awe and wonder in my world?
