Due to the eclipse season, Mercury Retrograde, and some powerful new and full moons, March and April proved challenging for many. Welcome the Full Moon in Sagittarius, which lights a flame, creating a tranquil and soothing energy filled with optimism and creative flow. Do you want adventure? Tap into Sagittarius, and you’ll be on your way.
Full moons provide us with the time to examine what is taking up space in our lives. What personal characteristics need to go? Where can you uplift and improve yourself?
Remember to be kind and patient with yourself as you dive deep and face shadows, which helps to propel you to your highest and greatest self. Sag can be impatient and even careless at times, so be aware of these emotions coming up within.
With the sun in Gemini during this full moon, you can be sure your inner social butterfly will be fluttering with excitement. While full moons can be very introspective, the balance will come in making time to be social. Laughter and being surrounded by good people is pure medicine for the soul.
When Is the Full Moon in Sagittarius?
The Sagittarius Full Moon will peak on Thursday, May 23. at 9:53 a.m. ET. Stargazers will likely see the moon lighting the sky the night before and after its peak.
What Does the 2024 Full Moon in Sagittarius Mean?
Sagittarius is outgoing, friendly, and adventurous, so be prepared for a wild and fun ride. But be sure not to overindulge. Everything in moderation is especially important during this time. During the Sag Full Moon, the themes to consider are prosperity, peace, and love. This is a highly positive full moon. It will help to uplift you and help you shed any residual stagnant energy that’s been trying to stick around. You can utilize the moon’s power to shine bright like the sun.
This is a great time to sit on a blanket with friends in the park and do tarot readings for each other or plan your next epic adventure. Bring awareness to your friendships, romances, and relationships with family and co-workers. The Sag full moon will help weed out the weak ones that may need re-evaluation.
Jupiter rules Sagittarius, and it’s not only the largest planet in our solar system, but astrologically speaking, it’s about massive expansion within ourselves and our lives, healing, good fortune, and miracles. So, if you thought that trip to Peru was out of reach, choose to believe in miracles since Jupiter governs long-distance and foreign travel. If your intuition tells you to stay put and instead invest in something you’ve wanted to learn, do it! Jupiter also ushers in higher education, wealth, and businesses on a grand scale.
This is also a great time to fall in love. If you are harboring negative feelings about romantic relationships from past broken hearts, set an intention to shed those old wounds to make room for new love to enter. You deserve it, and there is someone out there looking for you, too. Tell the Universe what you desire, and be specific. Then let it go into the ether and trust you are being supported. Remember to practice patience because the Universe often works on a timeline we don’t understand. Lean on self-love to bring your full illumination to your next great romance. There’s also so much room for personal growth during this time, so remind yourself that you will enter into your next relationship as a whole and not a half searching for your other half.

Spiritual Cleansing Limpia Recipe For the Full Moon in Sagittarius
Ingredients:
Essential oils – ginger, tea tree, orange
Herbs – saffron, basil, ashwagandha
Crystals – citrine, amethyst, turquoise
Pink Himalayan Salt
Sea Salt
Sage
Chrysanthemum or pink roses
Yellow, green, or purple candle
Ritual:
1. Begin by cleansing your space with Sage. Watch as the sacred herb’s smoke floats into the air. Allow the smoke to float around your window frames and doorways. Start from the back of your space all the way to the front until you can open a door and allow all negativity to exit while the beautiful, loving energy the sage brings remains.
2. Next, follow the same path you took with your sage and allow the Palo Santo smoke to act as a seal for all the goodness the sage created. Remember to always thank the sacred tools you use during your spiritual practices.
3. Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil and add a few handfuls of your herbs. Lower the heat and allow it to simmer for 10-15 minutes. Pray over it and set your intentions.
4. Strain your herb-infused water and set it aside to cool to a temperature you prefer.
5. Add a few splashes of Florida Water and several drops of essential oil. Mix it in with your hands or a wooden spoon. Continue your conversation with the Universe as you detail what you need from this Sagittarius Full Moon limpia.
6. Next, add half a cup of sea salt and pink Himalayan salt and mix until dissolved.
7. Cover the top of your limpia with flower petals, saving the rest of the flowers to put in a vase.
8. Create a Full Moon in Sagittarius altar using the rest of the flowers, crystals, and candle. Place the flowers in a vase and find a spot that speaks to you. Intuition test! Once you find the spot, place your flowers along with your candle. Sporadically place your crystals around the flowers and vase. Don’t overthink it. Just allow your hands to go where they want to.
9. Say a prayer and then light your candle. Sag is a fire sign, so this element is especially important to use during the full moon. You can even write down a list of things you want to release under the full moon and carefully burn the paper with the candle flame.
10. Finally, take your limpia into the shower. Wash your body first, and then as you pray and speak your intentions to the Universe, gently pour the limpia over your body and watch as it washes away everything you need to shed from your life.
