On December 1, 2024 (7:21 AM, Philippine Time), at exactly 9°32 minutes, a NEW MOON happens in the realm of Mutable Fire, SAGITTARIUS, the sign of the ARCHER.
The New Moon signals the start of a new lunar phase, representing an opportunity for renewal and initiation. It’s a time for setting intentions, planting seeds for the future. This moment presents a chance to deeply consider our priorities and devise strategies to bring our aspirations to fruition.
A star-filled moonless night embraces us again, dear reader, as Luna catches up with her beloved Sun once more, far out on the other side of the world. A New Moon always marks the start of a new lunar cycle, a moment brimming with potential and the perfect time to plant seeds for what’s to come. This New Moon in Sagittarius is especially significant, as it is the first of two New Moons this December, a rare cosmic occurrence culminating in a Black Moon (a second New Moon in a month), in Capricorn, the sign of the elder! This sequence of lunations tells a story: a bold, expansive beginning under Sagittarius’s firey temperament, leading to grounded and purposeful closure under Capricorn’s steady, grounded pragmatism.
Sagittarius, the centaur-archer, ruled by Jupiter, is a sign that represents hope, exploration, and the pursuit of truth. It pushes us to expand our horizons, dream of new possibilities, and seek meaning in the larger framework of life. Sagittarius energy is not about playing small—it’s about aiming for the stars, pushing beyond borders, trusting in the journey, and embracing the unknown with courage and optimism. This New Moon invites us to take those first steps into the vast unknown, lighting the way forward with its adventurous and visionary energy.
This Sagittarius New Moon isn’t just about the sign it occupies; it’s also shaped by its dynamic aspects to other planets. Together, these cosmic cpnversations weave a narrative of drive, caution, and potential expansion. As always, lets explore these conversations a little bit deeper:
ASPECTS OF THE NEW MOON
Mercury’s Co-Presence:
With Mercury close to this New Moon in Sagittarius, our minds are drawn to big ideas, bold conversations, and long-term visions. This is a time to think expansively, to speak of dreams, and to open to new knowledge. However, Sagittarius’s love for grand plans can sometimes overlook practical details. While it’s a fantastic time for brainstorming and aligning with larger truths, keep one foot grounded to avoid getting lost in abstraction!
Square to Saturn:
Saturn’s square introduces a more grounded, reflective influence. While Mars pushes us to act, Saturn demands responsibility, patience, and thoughtful planning. You may encounter challenges or delays that test your resolve, but these are Saturn’s gifts in disguise—opportunities to ensure your ambitions are built on a solid foundation. Saturn in Pisces reminds us that growth isn’t just about outer achievements; it’s also about the inner work that makes us resilient.
Loose Opposition to Jupiter:
Jupiter,sits across from this New Moon in earthy Taurus, creating a subtle tension between expansion and stability. This aspect reminds us to aim high but stay rooted, blending Sagittarius’s visionary fire with Taurus’s practical grounding. It’s not about choosing one over the other—it’s about finding a balance that supports sustained growth.resilience one step at a time, creating a strong foundation for future growth.
Trine to Mars:
The trine to Mars in Leo provides a surge of confidence and courage, fueling the fiery optimism of this New Moon. Mars encourages action, boldness, and passion, making this an ideal time to take decisive steps toward your goals. The harmonious energy of the trine means the path ahead feels supported—this is energy you can trust to propel you forward.
This New Moon marks the start of a month-long journey that begins with expansive fire and ends with grounded earth. Sagittarius opens the door to bold new possibilities, asking us to trust in the adventure ahead, while Capricorn’s Black Moon later this month will help us translate those dreams into tangible results. For now, the focus is on beginnings—on opening yourself to the vastness of what could be and daring to step forward!
To embrace this energy, take a moment to dream beyond your current reality, dear reader. Sagittarius thrives in spaces where hope meets action, where we’re willing to bet on a brighter future even when the path isn’t entirely clear. Let Mercury’s influence help you articulate those dreams—write them down, speak them aloud, or simply hold them close to your heart. With Mars lending its courage, take a bold step, no matter how small, toward the life you envision.
At the same time, heed Saturn’s quiet reminder that growth is a process. Challenges may appear now as questions: How committed are you? Are you ready to face the fears and hesitations that arise when you reach for something greater? Trust that Saturn is helping you shape not just a dream, but a lasting legacy.
Finally, reflect on Jupiter’s quiet opposition. This is a moment to balance hope with grounding, vision with action, and adventure with wisdom. Let the fire of Sagittarius guide you, but don’t forget the roots that will sustain your journey! Remember that this New Moon is not just about dreaming but daring to chase those dreams. It is also about lighting your own path in the vast expanse of possibility, trusting that even the smallest spark can ignite something extraordinary.
The universe is calling you to embrace this bold beginning with courage and faith, knowing that the seeds you plant now will carry the potential to grow into something magnificent. So, take the first step, dear reader, and let this lunation be your guide to transformation, adventure, and the endless horizon ahead!
Happy New Moon! ❤
