\n\u201cTruth is so rare it is delightful to tell it.\u201d<\/em>
\n– Emily Dickinson<\/p>\n

Famous Sagittarian (Sun, Mercury, Venus) poet Emily Dickinson may seem an unlikely fit for this adventurous sign. Emily was an ordinary recluse, an eccentric social hermit who wore white clothing and eventually lived her life from one room.\u00a0You wouldn\u2019t know it from her poetry.\u00a0Born with the Spirit of the Adventurer, Emily\u2019s inner life was\u00a0colorful, expansive, rich.\u00a0<\/strong>She ventured inward,\u00a0and created her own\u00a0meaningful diversions. In her time,\u00a0Dickinson, probably better known for her botany skills and glorious garden\u00a0than poetry (according to Wiki), wrote that she “could inhabit the Spice Isles merely by crossing the dining room to the conservatory, where the plants hang in baskets.” Emily was also born with Moon (Libra) in the Twelfth House (chart<\/a>), explaining her chosen solitude and enchanting imagination. She was also irrepressibly optimistic, her writings often banished darkness with optimism\u00a0and\u00a0hope -a skill of the torch-bearing Ninth Sign:\u00a0\u201cI saw no Way\/The Heavens were stitched\/I felt the Columns close\/The Earth reversed her Hemispheres\/I touched the Universe…\u201d<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n

Just when\u00a0Gemini Sun overly\u00a0scatters our attention into a million directions, Sagittarius Moon\u00a0asks us to step into a bigger picture. Sagittarius Moon\u00a0is hungry for new, meaningful experiences, has a hefty\u00a0appetite for pleasure, for enjoying life to its fullest. Boredom and predictability are anathema to the expansion of this sign; we need to shake up our routines at this\u00a0Full\u00a0Moon, search for\u00a0extraordinary philosophies and ideas, endeavour to shift our\u00a0ordinary life into\u00a0a life less ordinary.\u00a0We don\u2019t have to be swashbuckling pirate adventurers, or buy round the world tickets.\u00a0With both Mercury in Cancer and Neptune in Pisces now quietly retrograde, we might watch a foreign movie or documentary about an unvisited land, read philosophy books, attend lectures, or cultivate a more optimistic mindset (try \u201cIt\u2019s all good.\u201d \u201cI lead an abundant life.\u201d \u201cGood things are coming to me now.\u201d) While foreign travel lifts us\u00a0out of the ordinary, so can a\u00a0trip to our favorite mountain top.<\/p>\n

For five more weeks, Jupiter, Sagittarius\u2019 ruler, remains in Cancer, sign of Jupiter\u2019s exaltation. Jupiter makes an awkward\u00a0quincunx to this Full Moon, which means the two signs appear to have nothing in common. Sagittarius takes big bites from life; sensitive Cancer takes smaller ones, as a little goes a long way. Cancer is homey, focused on the inner world of imagination and feeling, while Sagittarius gathers worldly experience through encounters with exotic ideas, philosophies and cultures. Yet although they do it in different ways, both are inclined toward meaningful soul-searching and\u00a0would agree: a life lived in bits, bites and bytes, without digesting our experiences for meaning, isn\u2019t worth living.<\/p>\n

We so quickly consuming media and experiences nowadays but lose something in our haste. Is your attention divided?\u00a0Are you savoring the marrow of your life experiences? Are you giving your self the time to bask in the big picture and big questions of your life?<\/strong>\u00a0Saturn in Scorpio also opposes Venus in Taurus at this Full Moon. Money,\u00a0what you versus what I value, is a\u00a0sticking point. Feelings of love, giving and receiving, aren\u2019t flowing easily. Sagittarius Moon\u2019s shadow is irresponsibility, and opinionated dogmatism.\u00a0Philosophical roadblocks may\u00a0require us to step back and re-evaluate.\u00a0We can clarify our personal truth at this Full Moon while remembering to allow others theirs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s a saying: if you want to have a new experience, you’ve got to get off the couch. Maybe. After all, thanks to technology, we have a world of ideas\u00a0at our fingertips. We can travel far and wide without leaving home. Emily rarely did: with her Sagittarius\u00a0stellium in the Second House, sharing her point of view,\u00a0her voice, provided\u00a0meaningful risk.\u00a0\u00a0Look to the house Sagittarius rules in your chart as an area of life that will connect you to the truth of your experience, deliver meaning, and where you can\u00a0benefit from more optimism, adventure and risk.\u00a0Consider: it’s\u00a0not our experiences but our ability to derive meaning from them that make our life\u00a0ordinary or extraordinary. \u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0If you\u00a0lack vision\u00a0or are in the dark,\u00a0seek new perspectives, vistas at this Full Moon. Bring new insights into your\u00a0dilemmas\u00a0\u2013or let them go if needed, as Jupiter, above all, holds\u00a0the desire for a meaningful life and the freedom to claim\u00a0it. Look without, up, and within. Navel gazing counts, too!<\/p>\n
