A new moon means the sun and the moon are both in the Sagittarius constellation. New moons are the beginning of the cycle and the start of something new.
Sagittarius is all about adventure, abundance, exploration, and being light-hearted. Because it is a fire sign, it is very creative and growth-centered. It is a mutable sign, which means it is a transition between seasons. This makes it all about adaptability or moving from one thing to another.
The moon and the sun are at 9 degrees of Sagittarius, placing them in the 1st decan of the sign, which is represented by the 8 of Wands tarot card, also known as ‘Swiftness.’ The energy of this time is about developing a new idea quickly. There is a focus on accumulating all the information around the topic and moving forward swiftly. Being ruled by Mercury, the sign is very detail-oriented and project-focused.
Saturn is squared, showing that a perspective, belief, or moral rigidity may be in the way of executing your plans. It might indicate a need to slow down, but overall, it is a very optimistic time.
