On Sunday May 31 we have a rare Blue Moon in the sign of Sagittarius. A Blue Moon is the second full moon in a month, a once in every two- or three-year occurrence. Thus, the saying "once in a blue moon" to mean something that happens rarely. Blue Moons are considered to be extra powerful, due to their rareness. This one is at 9 degrees of Sagittarius, a sign that is about expansiveness, adventure and big ideas. Full Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs, and are a time of culmination, choices and heightened emotion. With the Sun in Gemini, we have been focused on socializing, sharing ideas, communication and small adventures. The Full Moon in Sag comes along to remind us to look at the big picture, to dream big and plan for bigger and bolder adventures. This is a time to have fun and expand our view of the world.

This Full Moon is supported by a trine to Saturn in Aries and a sextile with Pluto in Aquarius. Saturn brings structure and material support to our big plans and goals. We are being asked to dream big, but not to leave it in the realm of fantasy. Saturn in Aries encourages us to take concrete action to make those big ideals real. What steps can we take today to bring them into our everyday reality. Pluto assists us through changes in the wider world, particularly through new technologies, and community support. We cannot go backwards to the way things used to be but rather must adapt to the world and the changes it presents to us.
The Nodes are squaring the Blue Moon in Virgo and Pisces. The Nodes have associations with fate and karma. Changes that we make now have a sense of destiny to them. You may feel both a push to make changes and move forward, but also a desire to resist and stay in our comfort zone. The North Node in Pisces pushes us to think spiritually and to imagine possibilities, while the South Node in Virgo fusses over the details and may hinder us by giving us excuses as to why the changes feel too big to make. It's important to remember that you have been through changes before and can handle it again. By giving your Virgo side a step-by-step list, this can help to alleviate any feelings of resistance or anxiety.
Also, on this day, Mercury in Gemini makes a sextile with Chiron in Aries. This aspect brings us important messages around healing old wounds, particularly around our sense of self and identity. We are given an opportunity to express ourselves authentically now. You may be the person who helps another, or you may receive a healing message yourself. Watch for what triggers you or what resonates on this day as the Universe is bringing important messages now to help you move forward.
The Sabian Symbol for this Blue Moon is "A Golden Goddess of Opportunity." This is a perfect symbol for our optimistic Sagittarius Blue Moon. Not only is it a powerful lunation, but it is a lucky one where fate is pushing us to grow, and we are being supported by the Universe in making bold changes. This symbol speaks to the power of following our own destiny and speaking our truth. We are being asked to listen to our hearts and dream big. To challenge ourselves to step out of routine and our comfort zone to answer our destiny.
