Lunar Digest: Full Moon in Sagittarius

Working with my menstrual cycle, the Wheel of the Year, and the lunar cycle have served me so well over the last 7-8 eight years. The Moon in particular supports me throughout the month in re-committing to my intentions, taking inspired action and shedding whatever doesn't support the woman I am becoming. I do my own Full and New Moon rituals, and lead The Sisterhood Of The Moon New Moon Circles online in groups and have helped numerous women to maximise their manifestation potential by allowing 'Lady Luna' to inspire their day-to-day lives. The Lunar Digest is a bi-monthly blog post sharing the main themes of the upcoming lunation, my own take on what The Moon has in store, a practice to engage with, an affirmation for The Moon, and a journaling prompt. I hope you enjoy!

The New Moon in Sagittarius - 23/5/2024

Main themes: 

• Deep inner knowing

• Exploration

• Dare to dream

• Why not?

My take: 

Sagittarius is a future-planning forward-projecting sign which believes in better. That sounds so freeing, doesn't it? I can practically feel my skin tingling with the possibilities. Especially when it's a Full Moon in Sag... This is our opportunity to release even the stickiest, ickiest energies which we have tried time and time again to shed, forgive and let go of. There is SO MUCH potential here!

Sagittarius is also the sign of adventure, and exploration. It reminds us that there is a big wide world out there, ready and waiting to be discovered. So many of us forget the childlike beginner's mindset which allowed us to learn everything we know, once upon a time. We can fall into patterns which have us functioning on autopilot, and get stuck in ruts, and we neglect that curious thirst within us. This moon is our chance to reignite that, and reap the benefits of doing so.

During this moon, we become aware of how BIG the world is, and how many possibilities lie before us... We could commit to safari-ing the Serengeti, or skiing the Alps, or sunning ourselves in the Maldives. The world is huge, and although there are logistics which need arranging in order to make these sorts of travels possible, I do genuinely believe that they ARE possible if we decide to start the process. That process could be researching flights, starting a savings fund, or vision-boarding with our dream travel partners. Baby steps make giant leaps, afterall.

We also have the opportunity to dive deep on our studies when Sagittarius is at play: widening our opportunities is an inside job, and as our mind expands, our capacity to understand and enjoy the world around us expands too. When was the last time you hit the books, or took notes in the 'classroom', or shared ideas with your peers? Now is the time to re-start.

This Full Moon is a great time for us to zoom out on our lives and see the 'bigger picture'. What do you really want from life? Are you actively moving towards it? What is standing in your way? How can you clear those blockages? And what do you need to do next to get there? As we near the final month of the first half of the year, there is plenty of time to make our 2024 goals come true, but a level of awareness from a birds-eye view will help us to gain clarity around what we could cut-loose in order to collapse time around our goals. The Full Moon is ideal for this.

Affirmations:

"I trust my intuition to guide me to adventures which provide enrichment, empowerment and joy! I need not be afraid... I know I am always divinely protected, so taking a leap of faith feels good. My dreams are signposts from my subconscious, guiding my next inspired action."

Journaling prompt:

What is your intuition calling you to do or try or play with right now? Think about that challenge, that problem, that decision you have to make... What would you do if the consequences didn't matter?

Practice: 

Find a way to play this moon... Pursue the energy of exploration, curiosity and adventure, and have fun doing something out of your usual routine. Maybe try a new recipe, turn a walk into a 'bear hunt' in a new place, or visit a different town for a change. Use your imagination, and release fear, apathy, and the usual rut of routine. You can also 'play' with a visualisation practice, which dares you to dream! Here is one which I recorded as part of The Morning Meditation Challenge book (which I just published last month!) here is the FREE video link: A Dream Day Meditation. Then, head to The Soul-Led Sisterhood Experience: Lifestyle Upgrades for Fierce Females free facebook group so we can celebrate your commitments and hold you accountable.

I LOVE all of the information about Sagittarius being connected to travel the big wide world out there, I really do. But you know what I'm craving at the moment? I am feeling a bit pull to discover the big wide world in here, in my heart, in my soul. I have no current desire to travel, and definitely not to somewhere brand new (which, is a big deal for me, because I usually love to visit countries and cities I've never been too, and walk unbeaten paths...) So soul contract, spiritual connection and self-study are high on my agenda at the moment. The rest of the world can wait.

Plus, I'm feeling a grounded energy and really wanting to spend time in nature, forest bathing, walking the woods, and sunbathing beside English lakes... I'm wanting to connect with Mother Earth and learn more about my relationship with her. All of the root chakra things are where I'm at right now. That's what I'll be doing this Spring/Summer, methinks.

Regardless, I'm excited to dive deep into the energy of the Full Moon in Sagittarius, and I will be working my own Full Moon ritual tonight (technically, the Full Moon was last night, but I always give myself three nights either side of it to be in the energy!) I hope you enjoy whatever work you're doing around this lunar cycle and send Full Moon blessings your way.

With grace and grit,

Gabriella
