FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS MAY 23/24, 2024: ROMANCE, FREEDOM & ADVENTURE

Updated: May 25





Happy Full Moon in Sagittarius! This Full Moon at approximately 3 degrees of Sagittarius became exact at 9:53 AM (13:53 GMT) New York time yesterday, on Thursday, May 23, 2024.


Romantic vibes are strongly in the air now, as the sun in social and outgoing Gemini sits just three degrees away from an exalted Venus and Jupiter (Sagittarius’s ruler), which sit together in the powerful final degree of Venus’s ruler, Taurus.


This two-sign sun-Venus-Jupiter conjunction trines the still-exalted Retrograde Pluto in Aquarius, creating a lustful and sensual atmosphere. Pluto, the ruler of sexual Scorpio, also sextiles the Full Moon in playful and flirtatious Sagittarius.


Shortly after this Full Moon became exact, Venus entered chatty, sociable Gemini, where it will be joined by Jupiter tomorrow (more on this later). While Venus is in Gemini (through June 17), it is the absolute best time of the year to meet new people and make new connections—especially in a romantic context.


This is definitely the most romantic Full Moon of the year—and actually in quite a few years. If you are in a romantic relationship, the next 28 days are a great tine to cultivate love, romance, and sex—and to become closer with your partner than ever before.


Jupiter and Venus pretty much exactly sextile dreamy Neptune, making it a ‘Disney romance’ type energy. It’s a wonderful time to go on fun and interesting dates—and to indulge in fantasies with your partner.


If you are single, the next 28 days are the best time of 2024 to meet a new flame, or to cultivate something with someone you’re already getting to know.

With Pluto being Retrograde in open and inclusive Aquarius, you may also feel romantic feelings toward those ex-partners that have stayed in your life in some capacity.


With Venus being in Gemini, you may feel romantic feelings toward several different people and have trouble figuring out who you want to invest the majority of your time and energy in. It’s a great time to have fun and deep conversations with all of the romantic interests in your life, and see where the energy is most rich and where it feels most right.


Also, with Venus and Jupiter sextiling Neptune, look for hints and guidance about your romantic life in your dreams.


In addition, with Venus and Jupiter conjunct in Taurus when the moon reached its peak fullness, we will likely be big spenders over the next 28 days. We may especially spend money on social outings, fashion and art.


Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign that brings an energy of play, passion and spontaneity to the Zodiac. Ruled by optimistic, auspicious Jupiter, ‘The Archer’--which is a centaur--serves as a reminder that a life without spontaneity, risks, or new experiences is a boring one! Sagittarius reminds us to go after what we really want in life--unapologetically--and to not be afraid to take some risks on the way there.


Look for great opportunities to fall into your lap at this time. Be open to miracles. Travel. Allow yourself to feel as if you are consciously growing and expanding. The good fortune that finds you during this time will likely nudge you forward (or back onto) the Highest Path of your soul in this incarnation.


There is a general sweetness and excitement in the air with this Full Moon. Sagittarius is the sign of optimism. The Full Moon sits directly across the Zodiac Wheel from the sun in Gemini. We are feeling the fun energy that Gemini Season brings, and feeling extra social!


It’s a wonderful time to enjoy social gatherings, meet new people, and just talk a lot in general! It’s a great time to write and journal, too—as Gemini rules over written and spoken language.


Sagittarius is one of the signs of the Zodiac that emphasizes freedom. The Archer prefers to roam free and untied, rather than to nest in one place like Cancer for example. One of the things to focus on over the next 28 days (and especially the next two weeks) is how to bring more freedom into your life.


Sagittarius is the ruler of the 9th House, the House of Philosophy. Aside from being a roamer and an adventurer, Sagittarius is also the great philosopher of the Zodiac!

With the Sag Full Moon, we naturally feel inclined to read books, learn new things, and engage in philosophical discussions. In general, Sagittarius is associated with emotions, adventure, travel, athletics, growth, international affairs, eccentric things and philosophy.


Let’s dig deeper into this idea of creating freedom in our own lives.



CREATING FREEDOM IN YOUR OWN LIFE


As the adventurous Archer, the sign of Sagittarius epitomizes freedom!

Whether we remember it or not, each and every one of us are eternal creator beings playing in this third-dimensional game for fun, experience and Divine Service! It is especially true for those of us that are Starseeds that we absolutely knew what we were getting ourselves into when we decided to come to Earth.


We knew that we would be entering into a dense third-dimensional world fraught with perils such as war, disease, toxins and institutionalized socioeconomic inequalities. We also knew that the time would come when we would have the opportunity to play a pivotal Divinely-Guided role in helping to end the disease, strife, environmental toxicity, racism and economic suppression of the masses that has become the norm in this modern day.


For some of you, that role manifests directly via your chosen career or in volunteer or philanthropic pursuits; however for the majority of Lightworkers our contribution manifests more indirectly through our energetic work.


As above; so below and as within, so without; so if we wish to see energetic and earnest freedom behold the human race, we must strive to experience and express that freedom within our own consciousnesses.


Many of us experience a sense of freedom through travel (I’m that way, with some outer planets in Sag, as well as my North Node in the 9th House). Over the next 28 days, it is an awesome time to go on a trip—or to plan travel for the future.

If you’d like to join me and a group of spiritual initiates from around the world on my 2025 all-inclusive spiritual retreat in Peru, check out all the details here. E-mail me at youareadivinehuman@gmail.com to put down a deposit by June 1 and save 20% on the retreat!


Here are some questions of inquiry (and to journal on) to consider as you evaluate the role of freedom in your life:


  • In what ways have I been feeling stifled or stuck in life? Take into account all areas of your life: relationships; career; finances; health; and your inner world.

  • How could I allow for just a little bit more of a sense of freedom and spontaneity in my life while still keeping a healthy structure that allows me to grow long term?

  • What parts of me feel old and need to go? Have I been playing an old character? What kind of things trigger me into playing that old character? What kind of people trigger me into playing that old character? Is there anything stopping me from letting these aspects go, and stepping into a new recreation of myself?

  • What gives me a feeling of fire and passion? How could I structure my life in a practical way to allow more time to pursue my passions?

  • Where is some place I have always wanted to travel to? Could I make that happen before the end of this year? Or if not, then by the end of next year?

  • If I can't fully move around the chess pieces of my life to my exact liking right now, then could I be more spiritually mature and calm my nervous system more often—and teach it how to feel safe? What daily activities or rituals could help me in doing that?


One of the most important lessons that Sagittarius provides to the Zodiac is how to be unconventional and mix things up!



FEELING STUCK? DON'T FORGET TO MIX THINGS UP!


One of the themes that everyone experiences at one point or another is stagnation. When your energy stagnates, you're likely to experience bouts of depression and anxiety. If you feel like you've been stagnating lately—or even if you haven't—it's best to utilize the energy of Sagittarius to bring some adventure and variety into your life!


The Universe will often keep us in a situation where we feel stuck and stifled so that the frustration builds up so much that we finally take a leap of faith and make a big change in our lives. Undoubtedly, there will be choice points in your Life Plan where your Higher Self will nudge you to take a leap of faith. Courage usually pays off (and courage is a very Sagittarian trait!)


If it's not the time for you to make a big change, then you can shake things up in smaller ways. Perhaps you can plan a game night with your family; go for a hike in a place you haven't been before; plant new flowers or trees; start writing a book; start a new workout routine; learn tai chi or yoga; make art; learn an instrument; go to an art gallery; go experience a new cafe; change up the furniture in your house; design an app; or start a YouTube channel!


It doesn't always take a huge change in your life to shake off that sense of stagnation. Actually, that is more often the exception rather than the rule. For most of us, the best way to integrate the Sagittarian energy into our lives is to add spontaneity in little ways. Life is meant to be an adventure, although it's easy to forget that on this planet, where life can often be difficult, obstacle-laden, sad, dangerous and scary. But it’s definitely something that we are not supposed to leave behind completely, no matter what. It’s important to find the fun in being a human as much as you possibly can with whatever situation you find yourself in.


Yes, life is painful at times, but the more we can remember that life is an adventure, the more we are going to enjoy the little things in life. And furthermore, when we view life as an adventure, we are then able to let go of holding onto needing any particular outcome to manifest, because we know that no matter what happens, the adventure will continue. When you are able to let go of needing any one particular outcome to manifest, you place yourself in perfect alignment to draw your dreams to you.



JUPITER ENTERS GEMINI


As I mentioned earlier, Jupiter ingresses into Gemini—joining the sun—tomorrow, on Saturday, May 25. The Jupiter in Gemini era, over the next year, will make us focus on social relationships, communication, and discernment. Over the next year, we will see inevitable shifts in our social groups and ‘Soul Tribes’.


For us Lightworkers, this may mean moving away from people that we have known for a long time but may no longer vibrate with, as we move toward new friendships and relationships that complement us vibrationally.


Also, for those of you that are writers and authors, the next year is a really auspicious time to undertake a new writing project! And for the rest of you, it is a great time to start journaling again, or to expand upon your journaling practice.


On a world scale, Jupiter in Gemini may manifest as an extreme tightening of the powers that be on the types of information that can be shared on social media platforms. We will likely see new, tighter rules, and more restrictive Artificial Intelligence, across the major social media platforms. It may be 1984-type vibes.


We may also see a full-on World War III unfold while Jupiter is in Gemini. The bombing of Pearl Harbor by the Japanese in 1941 occurred during Jupiter in Gemini, bringing the United States into the war. I believe that we have already been in a quasi-World War III already—in the form of a proxy war going on in Ukraine and in the Middle East over the past few years. I think it’s more likely than not that world war will grow and expand over the next few years, and astrologically speaking, Jupiter in Gemini is one of the pieces leading us that way.



Wishing you a happy, fun and adventurous Full Moon in Sagittarius!


With Love,


Matthew John
