Full moon in Sagittarius on May 23rd, 2024 Trust your intuition
The full moon culminates on a Thursday, a Jupiter day. It will be a full moon at 2 degrees Sagittarius. Occurring in Europe at 15:52 in the afternoon. Your intuition is strong at this time. It is typically known as the Strawberry Moon, a name traditionally used by Native American tribes to mark the time of year when strawberries are ripe for picking.
The opposition with the ingress of the sun in Gemini lights up an interesting aspect with the ruler of this full moon, the planet Jupiter, being at the 29th degree in Taurus at the time of this Full Moon. Also known as the critical degree of the Zodiac. This degree mostly feels like urgency. Usually, when planets transit the 29th degree it can be impulsive energy and you need to be mindful of your actions. Jupiter will stay at this degree just for a few days. Until the 24th of May. It feels like a rounding-off phase of Jupiter’s transit in the sign of Taurus. The dots on the i. A full moon is often a completion, which in this case I find very appropriate. Jupiter, the ruler of this full moon, will enter the sign Gemini a day later on May 24th. This means it will occupy a completely different area of your natal chart and will have a completely different influence because from Venus land it will go to Mercury land. This colors how Jupiter expresses itself. Jupiter in Taurus is ruled by Venus and all its comforts and security and all other earthy matters. In Gemini, the coming year will be much more occupied with mental stimulation and communication with others of all sorts. The fixed energy Jupiter was trying to expand in earthly matters and will now move into the mutable sign of Gemini. Which means it can be somewhat an unfocussed and chaotic energy. More on that later.
During this interesting Waxing Gibbous moon phase culminating towards the Full Moon, we will experience the Sun-Jupiter conjunction in Taurus following the Venus-Uranus conjunction in Taurus, and the Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Taurus.
Jupiter will sextile Neptune at 29 degrees all week. It is a time to write down your dreams so they can be manifested. Check your natal chart for more clues, and write down your actual dreams so you can make sense of what the unconscious is telling you.
Anyway, this week we will have two of the most positive of transits according to most astrologers. I also agree, depending on the house placement and the connections it makes with your natal chart. I do think when the sun visits Jupiter, it is beneficial in Taurus. It will bring some form of material blessing. It also brings a spontaneity to our personalities. Our intuition is heightened, and we tend to be at the right place at the right time. Mind your spending with the Venus Jupiter conjunction on Tuesday and Wednesday 21st and 22nd of May. Indulgence in the Venusian areas of life.
A strong felt Scorpio moon as well just before this full moon on Tuesday and Wednesday. How can other people's resources add to obtaining your plans, goals and dreams? What do you need to ask for from others, or sign for? A loan or a mortgage for example. Crowdfunding or a subsidy from your commune. Or someone from your direct environment who can help you out. For example, How will you finance that plan abroad? It is usually partly with your own investment as well as with other people’s money or resources. Nothing is ever built alone. So how are you using other people’s skills and resources for your project?
At the time of this full moon, Mercury has joined Uranus. They are in full discussion about material matters in the sign of the Bull. Which offers valuable insights on this full moon day about finishing your projects related to Sagittarius themes. For example, a rounding of a school project or thesis. Signing a contract. You could also finalize a project abroad. Something will come full circle. Sagittarius energy is also about the outdoors. So financially planning this holiday trip abroad is also on the horizon. You will feel a strong need to go outside and go somewhere.
