Each new Moon is unique, offering its own magic governed by the astrological energy it falls within each month. This new Moon in Sagittarius draws our attention to our spirit of adventure and how we interact with new perspectives. Ruled by fire and Jupiter, Sagittarius embodies the spirit of the student, the philosopher, and the wanderer. This sign teaches us that life is a continuous learning experience, with everyone we encounter serving as our teacher. It reminds us that our journey is about gathering experiences and sometimes experiencing leaps of faith to acquire the knowledge necessary for our evolution.
When Is the New Moon in Sagittarius?
The upcoming new Moon in Sagittarius takes place on Saturday, November 30, at 10:22 pm PST.
What Does the New Moon in Sagittarius Mean for You?
Like the Sun, the Moon travels through all twelve zodiac signs cyclically. The Moon passes through a zodiac constellation every two-and-a-half days, taking a little over twenty-nine days to complete a full round. Each month, the new Moon lands in the subsequent zodiac sign, following the seasons of the Sun. When the Moon is positioned within an astrological energy, it takes on that vibration, flavoring it and affecting our emotions with that frequency. This energy gives us somewhere to focus each month, directing our attention to that aspect of ourselves.
As the Moon meets the Sun in the sky, we begin a new lunar cycle. The spark created from their meeting provides us with new vibrations waiting to be harnessed and directed into creating our dreams. Each lunar cycle brings us new opportunities, new truths, and new perspectives. It is a constant reminder that we can shift, change, and create wild possibilities for ourselves. Life is full of potential and we are never stuck in any one vibration. Like the rest of the Universe, we are constantly changing. Nothing is permanent.
The Moon governs the emotional body. It affects our feelings and needs. It tunes us into our intuition and helps bring out emotions so we may understand them. The new Moon illuminates our feelings on a subconscious level, giving us a glimpse of the energies we often store beneath the surface. It’s a time to gain access to our deeper desires and truths. We often gain a better assessment of what we truly want in life during a new Moon, making it a perfect time to plant intentions and create dreams.
As we travel from one new Moon to another, we can adjust our dreams and check in with ourselves to feel if the visions of the previous month still align with our highest vibration. Since we are continually evolving, it’s important to pause and reflect each month about who we are now. It’s also important to feel if what we wanted last month still holds true this cycle. If we no longer wish to continue with a previous intention, the new Moon becomes a time to release that energy and clear space for something new.
We can set new intentions and create new affirmations that align with the current version of ourselves. If last month’s intentions still align with us, then we can recharge them so they can evolve over the next lunar cycle. However you work with your intentions each new Moon, the importance lies in the time it affords us. This phase is our own cosmic reminder to give our dreams attention each month. The new Moon holds us accountable to ourselves. If we follow it, it gives us space to evolve and grow.
Sagittarius is about finding adventure and learning from it. With any great adventure, courage is the first requirement. Being courageous does not mean being fearless. Quite the opposite. Courage is cultivated through feeling fear, becoming aware of it, and not allowing it to take control. The first step in developing courage is becoming aware of your fear and acknowledging the information it carries but not allowing it to make decisions.
Meditation can place you in touch with where fear lives in your body so you can circumvent it before it acts on your behalf. Learning about our fear in a safe, comfortable place makes us more aware of it when we are confronting new situations out in the world. Fear is an important emotion and can keep us away from truly dangerous situations, so we don’t want to eradicate it completely. We just want it placed firmly in the back seat, not driving the car.
The new Moon in Sagittarius is a powerful opportunity for manifestation, a time to write intentions and feel them beginning to co-create with the universe. It enables us to alchemize this time through the following ways.
Embrace Your Potential
So often, we fall short of our true capabilities. We unknowingly sabotage ourselves right at the finish line, never discovering what might have happened if we’d pushed through. This self-limiting behavior stems from various fears—fear of the unknown, fear of success, and fear of failure. Fear manifesting as “what-ifs” suppress our positive visions and spiral us into anxious or intrusive thoughts.
This new Moon offers a chance to step away from these fears and ask yourself: What if the best-case scenario unfolds? What if everything aligns perfectly? Who would you become then? By shifting your perspective, you open yourself to the expansive energy of Sagittarius and the manifesting power of the new Moon.
Rewrite Your Truths
At its core, Sagittarius represents truth. This energy constantly seeks truth and reminds us that sometimes our inner truths need rewriting.
We all carry stories and narratives about our lives, forming our assumptions and expectations of ourselves and the world. Although some of these truths serve us well and shape our identities, others limit us and confine us to beliefs that feel safe but actually block our potential.
This new Moon is the perfect time to examine the truths governing your life. Ask yourself if any need shifting, editing, or expanding.
Co-Create With the Universe
The new Moon in Sagittarius is a potent time to co-create with the universe. As you write your intentions, feel them starting to materialize. Visualize the energy of your desires mingling with the cosmic forces, setting in motion the manifestation process. This is not just about writing down wishes; it’s about feeling the reality of your intentions in your very being.
Throughout this lunar cycle, continue to question any resistance or hesitation you feel towards your dreams. These moments often reveal old truths that no longer serve you. By identifying and challenging these limiting beliefs, you clear the path for your intentions to manifest.
Expand Your Comfort Zone
Our truths often conform to our comfort zones, providing reliable behaviors, thoughts, and beliefs to which we become attached. While they may feel safe, not all of these truths help us manifest our visions. To create a life that breaks old patterns and behaviors, you need to rewrite some truths and step out of limiting comfort zones.
Use this new Moon to allow yourself to get lost in the unknown. Let uncertainty open the door to an expanded life. As you write your intentions, push beyond the boundaries of what you currently believe is possible. The manifesting power of this new Moon supports bold visions and audacious dreams.
Challenge Inherited Truths
As you explore your truths and stories during this potent manifestation period, question their origins. Are they based on your direct experiences, or were they passed down to you? Sagittarius energy encourages firsthand experience with life. If you’re holding onto truths you haven’t personally experienced, now is the time to challenge them.
Set your intention to gather the experiences you need to form your own truths. The new Moon in Sagittarius supports your journey to expand your consciousness and break free from limiting patterns inherited from others.
Harness the New Moon’s Energy
This new Moon in Sagittarius is your opportunity to decide what energy will shape your life moving forward. It’s not enough to accept stories and truths from those who came before you. To truly expand and evolve, you need to form internal narratives that encompass your experience with life and align with your deepest desires.
As you write your intentions beneath this new Moon, feel the potent manifestation energy surrounding you, pay attention to any old truths trying to sabotage your dreams. Is there an inner voice dictating what is or isn’t possible? Are you holding yourself back from the life you desire because you don’t feel it belongs to you?

Sit with each for a moment and allow the answer to naturally arise, being open to the person you are becoming.

You deserve to expand past your current version into a new reality. You deserve everything you want, and this is the Moon to call it all in.
Trust in the process, believe in your potential, and allow the universe to co-create with you as you step into a new chapter.
