🌙 About the New Moon in Sagittarius
As the moon slips into its darkest and most potent phase, we arrive at a threshold of pure possibility. The New Moon is a cosmic reset — a moment to plant intentions, dream boldly, and begin again with clarity and purpose. It whispers of fresh paths, open horizons, and the quiet magic of creation before anything has taken form.
When this New Moon rises in adventurous Sagittarius, the energy expands, uplifts, and ignites the spirit. Sagittarius teaches us that life becomes richer when we dare to explore, to trust our intuition, and to follow the spark of what calls us forward. This is not a moon for small thinking. It’s a moon for vision, optimism, and saying yes to the next chapter.
This lunar moment invites you to reflect on:
✨ What new direction you feel pulled toward
✨ What goals or dreams you’re ready to expand
✨ Where curiosity and passion are trying to lead you
✨ What fears or limits you’re ready to release
✨ How you can open yourself to possibility, magic, and momentum
Sagittarius encourages us to think big, trust the journey, and embrace new experiences with heart and courage. There is no need to have everything figured out — only a willingness to step toward the future with authenticity and hope.
Whether your altar is simple or adorned with zodiac-inspired resin pieces shaped in colors of purple, indigo, turquoise, and gold, this moon phase invites you to dream with intention. If you feel called to work with a handcrafted New Moon in Sagittarius ritual set, you are always welcome to request a custom creation from Moon Shine Spills.
