Full Moon (lunar eclipse) in Sagittarius

May 26th

Here it is! The eclipse you’ve heard astrologers talking about all week. This will be a full moon, lunar eclipse. This means that while the moon is full, earth will pass between the sun and moon casting a shadow! Pretty exciting right? In astrology eclipses are times of intense release, abrupt endings, and heightened energy. But there's no reason to fear this eclipse. Eclipses happen every single year, typically in clusters, so this won't be our last one either. We all know things must come to an end, and sometimes we hold on longer than we really should. Cue an eclipse to give you the nudge you need to finally let it go. This time it’s in the sign of Sagittarius, the philosopher who has their eyes set on the future. This energy is all about letting go of the past. You can’t keep your eyes on the prize if your gaze is behind you after all!

What you should release based on your sign: 

These are the archetypal energies; apply these descriptions to your Sun, Moon, Rising, and wherever you have Sagittarius in your chart ✨ 

♈Aries - Trine (120°) You’ll have it a tiny bit easier than most. You're encouraged to release self-destructive attitudes. You tend to throw yourself into new situations with confidence it will all work out (even though sometimes it doesn’t). It’s okay to sometimes stay where you're comfortable!

♉Taurus - Quincunx (150°) This is a really challenging time for you. You’re encouraged to release the need for control over your material gains. It’s okay to ask for help from others. The reliable friend(you) sometimes needs someone to rely on too!

♊Gemini - Opposition (180°) This will feel teally challenging but rewarding. You’re encouraged to release your tendency to over extend yourself. You’re great at multitasking but sometimes you don’t know when to stop taking on new projects. It’s okay to only accomplish one or two things at a time.

♋Cancer - Quincunx (150°) This is a challenging aspect. You’re encouraged to release defensive or stand-offish attitudes towards sudden change. You tend to feel personally hurt when asked to change things. But try to accept criticism as opportunities to improve.

♌Leo - Trine (120°) You’ll have an easier time than most. You’re encouraged to release any aggressive tactics for success. Your skills can be demonstrated just as well by showing your capacity to work in a group.

♍Virgo - Square (90°) This is a challenging aspect that brings conflict. You’re encouraged to release the need to hyper fixate on details. Stepping back to admire the entire picture will give you clarity.

♎Libra - Sextile (60°) This aspect is mildly positive so it may be less intense for you. You're encouraged to release any people pleasing attitudes that set you back. You can’t make everyone happy, and that is okay! Focus on you.

♏Scorpio - Semi-sextile (30°) This is a very weak, but positive, influence. You’re encouraged to release any grudges or hurts from your past. Especially if you’re no longer in contact with whoever you have the boundaries with.

♐Sagittarius - Conjunction (0°) A powerful but neutral energy. Your energy is the star of the show! This will feel really chaotic for you (sorry!). You’re encouraged to release unrealistic expectations and to become comfortable with the unknown. It’s okay to not have a set in stone goal sometimes. Enjoy the present.

♑Capricorn - Semi-sextile (30°) This is a weak, but positive, influence. You’re encouraged to release routines that pull you from your true desires. It’s time to reassess what you’re working toward and make adjustments.

♒Aquarius - Sextile (60°) This is a mildly positive influence. You may have a less intense eclipse than others. You’re encouraged to release any self-limiting beliefs you hold about yourself. Not everything you believe about yourself is true.

♓Pisces - Square (90°) This is a challenging aspect that brings conflicts. You’re encouraged to release avoidance conflict styles. You’re not typically a fighter, but you must stand up for yourself sometimes! This fiery energy will give you the boost to let go of your fears of confrontation.
