Moon in Sagittarius: Peregrine. This is a neutral placement, leaning a bit more towards the negative. The Moon has no essential dignity and is not in the place of a sectmate. On the plus side, she tends to encourage big picture thinking, creative expansion, and broadening of experience during this time. The timbre is optimistic and hopeful. This is a good day for pushing your boundaries, getting out of your comfort zone, and trying new things.
Triplicity and Quadruplicity: Bicorporeal Fire. Bicorporeality indicates activities and moods which are a mean between the extremes of movability (cardinality) and fixedness, not as erratic and changing as the former, but not as solid and steady as the latter. The fire element indicates the realm of spirit and ideals, and the Moon in a fire sign often expresses more enthusiasm, spontaneity, and creative, heart-centered expression.
Moon’s ruler: The Moon forms a Superior Sextile to Jupiter in Aquarius. There is moderate support for the Moon in grounding her significations, and the groundedness of long-term plans will come about fairly easily.
Relationship to the Sun: The Moon is Averse to the Sun in Capricorn. The relationship between external events and situations and internal desires and drives will be in a neutral place. Your circumstances will not support you in any profound way, but they won’t pull you down either.
Aspects
Superior Sextile to Mercury in Aquarius. Last period’s sextile has carried over from the last period, as Mercury has just ingressed into Aquarius. Ease of communication and more natural use of the voice. Ideas and thoughts will be clearer, and interpersonal conversation will flow more smoothly.
Superior Sextile to Saturn in Aquarius. The square from the previous period has resolved into a sextile, and any tension brought up during the previous period from this aspect could resolve as well. You may see the value behind some difficult lessons you were learning in the previous period. You may find difficult experiences coming up that will thwart your agenda or sidetrack you, but they will be minor at best and easily turned into something helpful to you.
Summary: For the first time in a over year, the Moon begins forming an aspect to her ruler Jupiter while she occupies the sign of Sagittarius. This is a great indication for people with natal Sag placements, as well as anyone else who really enjoys these periods or finds them useful. The Moon now forms a superior sextile - which is an excellent indicator for accomplishing goals and making long-term plans successful. The natural exploration, expansion, and creativity that can develop during Sagittarius Moon periods will be much stronger and positive so long as this sextile continues.
For this period, we are blessed not just with a sextile from Jupiter, but also a sextile from both Mercury and Saturn. There is a great amount of support here, as all these planets will provide aid to the Moon from their own spheres of influence, which will in turn help you to see your own will and desires through. This is an excellent period for actively engaging in new experiences and trying new things, doing activities that broaden your horizon and rekindle joy and enthusiasm within you. So long as you are not going through any particularly difficult transits or time-lord periods in your own chart, I imagine that this period will be very beneficial for you.
