Is it possible to have too much of a good thing? The answer may come at this year’s Sagittarius Full Moon. And so might a huge dose of optimism and high spirits.

As full moons go, this one is lower on the emotional scale. Dramas may well be over the top – Sag’s ruler Jupiter is one for excess, after all – but they probably run more toward ideology and beliefs rather than full throttle feelings.

This Moon is a harvest – or buffet table – of ideas and messaging. Where we get information and what we do with it loom large in the situations coming to a head now. Are we optimistic? Grandiose? Opinionated? Prejudiced? Overblowing situations? Overbearing? Forcing our opinions onto others? Jupiter does have a way of pumping things up, sometimes to extremes so cartoonish that they’re hard to miss.

He also has a bent for silver linings, though. And those could be more and more visible as situations and dramas escalate now.

A Time for Tenderness and Bright Sides

This Moon is not as stressed, nor as stressing, as most of the lunations we’ve been through this year. It has no harsh or challenging aspects (though a few are wired in the sky, into the foreseeable future.) Like this month’s Taurus New Moon, this one has the potential for surprisingly lovely experiences. It encourages indulgence, seeing possibilities and bright sides and even … relaxing into fun.

Emotions that do stir are likely to be tender, comforting and loving – or involve issues with those qualities. This prospect comes from the sign’s ruler Jupiter being in Cancer, the sign of home, family and nurturing. He’s not alone in directing attention to these topics. The sky’s social director Venus is also currently in Cancer mode as well, inspiring home tending and caretaking and feeding each other (and ourselves) comfort food and sweet things.

"Is there enough PIE for everyone? Isn’t it possible to make more pie?"

Stabilizing Forces and Necessary Adjustments

One of those bright sides that Jupiter so loves: This Moon comes with a built in governor, making it more restrained and less harsh or chaotic than its recent predecessors. The Moon is trine to Saturn, ruler of order, containment, responsibility and adulting. Saturn’s touch reins in some of that Sag/Jupiterian excessiveness and stabilizes – or adds staying power to – the Moon’s culminations and harvest. Feeling good and optimistic? You may lock those qualities in now.

The contact is also a teaser for late August, when Jupiter will trine Saturn. Put a note in the back of your mind regarding this week’s developments; they’re a precursor to the stabilizing (or structure) to come.

The power of philosophies and beliefs is a core and cosmically mandated theme, and they’re all being pressurized. The Moon is on the receiving end of a wide yod, or finger of God, from Venus and Mars. The inner planets are linking desires, values, relationships and money – heavy on how we take care of ourselves and each other – with solid, practical action and results. Their combined forces are coming at the Moon and pushing for adjustments in beliefs and policies.

Some adjustments, and probably outright changes, are a necessary part of our current journey. Uranus is the focus of a t-square from the nodes, forcing out epiphanies and radically new thinking, information and perspective as we ping pong between past divisiveness and future commonality. And Uranus is already moving into the configuration with Neptune and Pluto that will lock into place in July.

We can’t see with any clarity or certainty what this configuration will deliver. For now, what we’ve got are sparks, nervousness and excitement, crackling through the excesses and highs of this Full Moon. The vibes promise to be surprisingly optimistic, and you may find yourself expecting the best.
