When is the next full moon in Sagittarius?

The full moon in Sagittarius perfects at 9:53 a.m. EDT on May 23, 2024, but we’ll feel the effects of the full moon linger in the sky through May 25.

What is the astrological meaning of a full moon?

When a full moon occurs, the sun and the moon are on opposite sides of the Earth, and also sit in opposite zodiac signs. The moon appears at its brightest, which is why astrologers associate this part of the moon’s cycle with illuminating topics or pieces of information that were previously obscured.

As the halfway point of the monthly lunar cycle, full moons symbolize a turning point, moment of culmination or celebration, or point of release and letting go. While a new moon is a time to set new intentions, a full moon is typically associated with those intentions materializing or coming to light.

What can you expect from the May 2024 full moon in Sagittarius?

This year’s full moon in Sagittarius is about as sweet as they come! The sun and moon will form a gentle connection with Pluto, the planet of the Underworld. While that doesn’t sound super care-free, this connection can trigger a sense of empowerment, healing, and transformation. This may coincide with a major perspective shift or realization about your own healing journey and how far you’ve come. This is an opportunity to step back into your power and to celebrate boldly along the way.

Pluto’s influence adds a layer of substance to all our interactions and insights today. We’re craving more intimacy and depth from our close relationships. Gut instincts and your intuition are a little more accurate, and you might also feel more in sync with where you’re headed. The moon will also inch toward Mars in Aries, stirring up a passionate, risk-taking energy. This can boost your courage and confidence. You may feel ready to take action on an idea that comes through under this moon, or experience a creative breakthrough.

At the time of this lunation, Jupiter will be in Taurus forming a conjunction with Venus in Taurus. Essentially, the two luckiest planets in the sky are meeting up to share a kiss. This is one of the most fortunate or auspicious planetary connections you can have, and these two planets won’t meet up in the sign of Taurus for another 12 years. That means the Taurus sector of your birth chart is getting a major glow up under this full moon and blessings are on the way!

When Venus and Jupiter conjoin, this marks a new cycle for your relationships, beliefs, and dreams. This is a powerful day for manifestation work and you may be surprised by what good news finds you under this moon or within the coming days. This is great energy for party planning, going on a date, or just spending time doing something you love or connecting with loved ones.
