New Moon in Sagittarius | December 20, 2025
On December 20, there will be a New Moon in Sagittarius. This New Moon will not last just one day. It will set something in motion that will only really take shape in 2026 and beyond. But what you feel now will determine how you live that future.
New Moon in Sagittarius
The New Moon marks the start of a new cycle. It is an emerging energy with the potential to grow. Sagittarius represents the adventurer, visionary, and traveler. It represents the meaning of life, contains the will to move forward, and is future-oriented. Enthusiastic, optimistic, and inspiring.
Desire to Make Something of It and Delay
The Sun and Moon are hand in hand with Venus in Sagittarius and Mars in Capricorn. At the same time, these planets form a square with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces.
This combination of energy can fuel desire. You feel like moving in a certain direction (Venus and New Moon in Sagittarius). You have the energy to do it and take it seriously (Mars in Capricorn), but at the same time it feels elusive, or there are delays or doubts (Saturn and Neptune in Pisces).
The energy isn't there to move forward at full speed, but it helps you to put things in order thoroughly, accurately, and with discipline. It's time to change what doesn't fit with your values, beliefs, and vision for the future. Be realistic, thoughtful, and careful.
This may manifest itself in you noticing that something you have been doing for a long time no longer feels right. Or that you feel less of a need to explain, please, or prove yourself. But rather that it is time to take your own feelings and intuitions seriously and remain true to them.
Wounds are triggered
Jupiter is also active. Jupiter in Cancer has been squaring Chiron in Aries for some time, but during the new moon this square will be exact to within a few minutes, which means that the energy is now at its highest tension, but internally focused, because both planets are retrograde (moving backwards from Earth's perspective).
It reveals wounds surrounding your right to exist, being able to be yourself, and taking your place in the world. This is especially true in relation to your family, background, and safe home base. There is tension between taking care of yourself and taking care of others, and this can affect you emotionally.
For example, you say that something is okay, when it isn't. Or someone asks you for something and you immediately feel resistance. You want to help or support someone, but at the same time you feel tired or irritated.
It is important to realize that it is usually not even about the situation itself, but that it triggers an old wound. The purpose of this square is to be loving, towards others but especially towards yourself. So no longer at the expense of yourself, but recognizing, respecting, and setting your own boundaries.
Emotional Waves Are Mostly Over
You may have experienced a range of emotions over the past two months, such as sadness, uncertainty, and frustration. Since the end of October, in addition to this square, there has also been a large triangle in Water signs, which was emotionally and sensitively charged. Delving into the depths, into the shadow sides of your inner self. This was intensified because many planets went retrograde. That is now largely over.
There is one remaining remnant of the triangle. Jupiter still forms a triangle with Saturn in Pisces. But this triangle is also breaking apart because Jupiter is still retrograde and Saturn is moving forward again.
In 2026, Jupiter will enter again and they will form an exact triangle three times. This promotes long-term growth, as it encourages focus on long-term goals and provides patience, perseverance, and a sense of duty.
However, Jupiter is now going retrograde, which encourages introspection and reflection on your long-term goals. Now that the emotional deep waters are receding, you can take a fresh look at what gives you satisfaction, what makes you happy, and when you feel happy. And Saturn's sense of reality helps you assess what it takes to make that achievable and realize it.
Step Toward the Future
All in all, this New Moon is a great time to look ahead to 2026 and think about how you want to start that year and where you want to grow. Make an essential intention for this and spread the word through an energetic campaignso that you are ready when the energy surges in 2026. Because it definitely will.
