“Free yourself from the way you normally view the world. You are the dreamer and the dreamed. In the collective dreamfield, all things are possible and are constantly being created. By choosing to become a conscious dreamer, you are helping to create the new reality of the larger dream, the Greater Reality unfolding.” - Ariel Spilsbury

The Sagittarius Full Moon is a massive change point, inspiring a leap of faith based on a shift in perspective or new understanding. Following a series of planetary conjunctions - seed-plantings for new growth - this Full Moon catalyzes culmination, when previous intentions and efforts come to fruition.

The Full Moon harmonizes with Pluto in Aquarius, calling for the shedding of old, outgrown, limiting thought forms. What do you believe about your own creative potential, about humanity, about the future? Do your stories inspire you to create a more positive reality, or reinforce your fears? The Full Moon invites expansion into a more empowering story that supports you to build your more beautiful life and world.

Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius and presiding deity of this Full Moon, is at the very last degree of Taurus. New insights and wisdom about the Taurean realms of body, earth/nature, creativity, manifestation, money, values and worthiness may come to light.

Jupiter conjoins with Venus, powerful in her home sign. The union of the two “benefic” planets at the Full Moon amplifies feelings of love, pleasure, sensuality, comfort and celebration, while opening opportunities to receive and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

The shadow potential of Venus-Jupiter is over-spending or over-indulgence – “too much of a good thing.” This conjunction could also bring awareness to where you’ve become TOO comfortable in your life, where stagnation has set in and where you’re ready to shake up your reality and take a risk toward creating something even better.

The Venus-Jupiter conjunction precisely harmonizes with Neptune in Pisces. Part of the perception shift invited by this Full Moon is to expand into the subtle realms, the dreamtime, the mysterious forces at play beyond the materialist paradigm. And to acknowledge how much you DON’T know about who you are and how this world works.

Along those lines… my wise friend Cate Montana recently published an article: “Save the environment? How about trying to understand it first?” With the subtitle: “Life is a mystery with intelligence and power far beyond human comprehension.” Indeed! This Full Moon wants to open you to the greater mysteries of life, and to the creative power and MAGIC available when you connect and align with the ultimate level of reality - pure consciousness (Neptune).

This is a potent Full Moon for working with and receiving guidance from your dreams (my latest podcast with Amanda Lux has some great tips for that!); for communing with nature and connecting with nature spirits; and for softening your mind and opening your heart to a magical new perception of reality.

For more insight into what this Full Moon means for YOU, find the house in your birth chart that contains 2° Sagittarius. The areas of life signified by that house are where events are coming to culmination, fruition or completion, and where you’re invited to:

• let go of old stories/beliefs and open to a more empowering vision for your future;

• reignite and nurture your inspiration, enthusiasm and courage;

• take a risk toward creating your more beautiful world;

• expand your perspective and tune into your body’s instinctual guidance.
