The Sun in Sagittarius: November 21st to December 21st

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvellous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity."

Albert Einstein

Sagittarius Season

Adventure


The Sun spends about a month in a each sign, illuminating our path around the wheel and bringing focus to a different area of our chart and the themes of our life's journey. The Sun is our guiding light and life purpose. The Sun always wants us to shine brightly as our authentic selves, striding purposefully along our path towards our desired destiny.


Between November 21st and December 21st (London) The Sun will be in Jupiter's Fire sign of Sagittarius, 'The Centaur'. What does this mean for us? And how can we work with the solar energy over the next few weeks to further our self work and step into more authentic and integrated versions of ourselves?

Sagittarius


  • Sagittarius is the double-bodied, yang, fire temple of Jupiter.

  • Sagittarius is the domicile of Jupiter, and the sign of the Bowman or Centaur.

  •  In this sign, dominance of the darkness persists, but the Autumn season is transforming and by the end of Sagittarius the lightening of the dark will commence as Winter takes over.

  • Hence the following themes are associated with Sagittarius:

    • Hedonism, rebellion, nihilism

    • Redemption, hope, optimism

    • Wisdom, enthusiasm, adventure

    • Battle, competition, and salvation


  • Sagittarius is a sign associated with both reckless and redemptive qualities, both untamed urges and higher mindedness.

The Sagittarius Sun


Just as the Sun is at the centre of our solar system, our Sun placement is the heart of the birth chart, with all the other Gods in service to the process of self-development and creative fulfilment that it represents. The Sun in our chart describes our core sense of identity and the journey we undertake over the course of life, His position in our chart shines a light on our central storyline. There is a sense of quest with the Sun, at the end of which we eventually come home to ourselves. Where do you shine in the world?


A Sagittarius Sun represents a journey of boundless exploration, a quest for higher truth, and the desire to inspire and be inspired. This placement reveals a core identity shaped by a need for freedom, meaning, and adventure - both within and without. At the heart of the birth chart, the Sagittarius Sun becomes the guiding light, casting warmth and illumination on a life driven by optimism, idealism, and the pursuit of wisdom.


Core Identity and the Solar Quest:


The Sagittarius Sun centres its identity on growth and discovery. Much like its ruling planet Jupiter, it expands and seeks new horizons, often asking: What more is out there? What is my purpose in the grand scheme of things? This search for meaning often defines their central life storyline. Their quest is not linear but rather a series of journeys, each one bringing them closer to understanding themselves and the world.


The Sagittarian archetype of the Bowman points to this constant striving. The arrow they shoot represents their hopes and dreams, always aimed at distant goals, never settling for the mundane. For a Sagittarius Sun, life is a quest of aiming high, sometimes missing the mark, but always moving forward with an insatiable hunger for what lies ahead.


The Journey to Self-Development:


Sagittarius Suns shine through their ability to inspire others with their enthusiasm, philosophical insights, and unyielding faith in life’s possibilities. Their journey is about reconciling two aspects of their nature:


  1. The Wild and Untamed: A love for freedom, spontaneity, and the thrill of the unknown.

  2. The Higher Minded: A yearning to connect with universal truths, to teach, guide, and leave a lasting impact.


This duality drives their creative fulfilment. The Sagittarius Sun individual may feel torn between indulging in worldly pleasures and committing to a higher purpose, but both paths enrich their self-understanding.


Sagittarius’ Light in the World:


Sagittarius Suns often shine in roles that allow them to expand their horizons and share their knowledge. They may thrive as teachers, philosophers, adventurers, or artists who inspire others to dream big. Their light is brightest when they are authentic, optimistic, and bold enough to pursue their own truth while encouraging others to do the same.


At the end of their solar quest, Sagittarius Suns come home to themselves by realising that the journey itself is the destination. They find their fulfilment not in arriving but in continually moving forward, embracing life’s ups and downs with hope and wisdom. They are the storytellers, the wanderers, and the seekers who remind us that life is an adventure to be embraced with an open heart.


The Sagittarius Moon


The Moon is equal in importance to the Sun and represents our emotional core, our inner world, and how we respond instinctively to life's experiences. It is the realm of feelings, intuition, and memory - what nurtures and comforts us, as well as how we seek to nurture others. While the Sun reflects our outer, active self and conscious identity, the Moon governs our inner, reactive self - our emotional habits, needs, and instinctual behaviours. It connects to the mother archetype and shows how we seek emotional security and a sense of belonging. How do you feel?


A Sagittarius Moon reflects an emotional world shaped by a deep need for freedom, exploration, and connection to something larger than oneself. With this placement, the inner world is imbued with the fire of inspiration and a desire for meaning. The Sagittarius Moon governs emotional instincts and needs with a spirit of adventure, optimism, and a hunger for growth, making this placement expansive, idealistic, and restless at its core.


Emotional Core and Inner World:


A Sagittarius Moon thrives when it feels unbound and free to explore its emotions and environment. Instinctively, it seeks experiences that broaden its perspective, whether through travel, learning, or philosophical inquiry. There’s an emotional craving for novelty, adventure, and truth - a need to feel alive through exploration of the world and self.

At its heart, the Sagittarius Moon yearns for a higher purpose, a belief or ideal that gives emotional fulfilment. This quest often drives an optimism and resilience; even in challenging emotional times, the Sagittarius Moon looks for the silver lining or the lesson to be learned.


Emotional Habits and Instincts:


  • Freedom-Seeking: A Sagittarius Moon dislikes feeling constrained, emotionally or otherwise. Routine and predictability can feel suffocating, as this Moon craves spontaneity and adventure.

  • Philosophical Approach: When faced with emotional challenges, the Sagittarius Moon often seeks understanding by stepping back and examining the bigger picture. Emotional processing might involve asking, What does this teach me? or How does this fit into my journey?

  • Optimism and Enthusiasm: Emotionally, this Moon tends to rebound quickly, powered by an innate belief that things will improve and that there is always something new to discover or strive toward.


What Nurtures and Comforts:


A Sagittarius Moon feels comforted by experiences that allow for growth and expansion - whether physical, intellectual, or spiritual. Environments filled with learning, variety, and open-mindedness create a sense of emotional security. Nurturing for this Moon involves encouragement to dream, explore, and follow its aspirations, rather than being confined to the familiar.


They may find emotional solace in nature, travel, or studying different philosophies and cultures. The Sagittarius Moon craves the kind of support that gives it space to roam but also connects it to something meaningful.


The Mother Archetype and Belonging:


The Sagittarius Moon often relates to the mother archetype as a guide or teacher - someone who inspired a sense of adventure, curiosity, or philosophical inquiry. This can manifest as a literal or metaphorical figure who emphasised independence and self-discovery.


For belonging, the Sagittarius Moon needs relationships and communities that allow for intellectual and spiritual growth. Emotionally, it may struggle in environments that demand conformity or limit its expression of individuality.


How Do You Feel?


With a Sagittarius Moon, you feel deeply alive when pursuing your passions, exploring the unknown, and discovering deeper truths about life. You instinctively seek emotional fulfilment through connection with the vastness of the world - whether through travel, study, or shared ideals. Your emotions are like a fire, burning brightly and yearning to illuminate a path forward.


Ultimately, a Sagittarius Moon finds emotional security in freedom, meaning, and the journey of life itself. It feels most at home when it is free to wander, dream, and believe.


Sagittarius Rising


Also known as your Ascendant, your rising sign is the Zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon when you were born. Symbolising who you are in the world, we can think of our rising sign as our ‘persona’, a mask we wear and how we show ourselves to the world. Who are you in the world?


A Sagittarius Rising shapes the way you step into the world as an inspiring, adventurous, and dynamic presence. It reflects a persona that exudes optimism, enthusiasm, and an unquenchable thirst for exploration, both literal and metaphorical. As your Ascendant, Sagittarius influences how others perceive you, the first impression you make, and the lens through which you approach life. It reveals you as someone who is always seeking, questioning, and striving for growth.


The Persona of Sagittarius Rising:


With Sagittarius on the Ascendant, your outward personality is bold, curious, and open-minded. You are likely seen as someone with a zest for life and a contagious sense of enthusiasm. Whether through your ideas, physical energy, or your way of engaging with the world, you radiate a sense of purpose and vision that draws others to you.


  • Adventurous and Free-Spirited: Your persona is that of the explorer. Whether you’re trekking new landscapes or diving into intellectual pursuits, you present yourself as someone on a quest for truth and meaning.

  • Optimistic and Outgoing: Sagittarius Rising individuals are naturally sociable and tend to approach life with a positive attitude. You’re often the one encouraging others to look on the bright side or take risks.

  • Philosophical and Visionary: You carry yourself as someone who thinks big. You’re drawn to the larger questions of life and might be seen as a philosopher or dreamer by those around you.


How You Show Yourself to the World:


Sagittarius Rising individuals often come across as approachable and larger-than-life, with an air of wisdom and humour. You likely project confidence and charisma, even when you’re uncertain. Your natural curiosity makes you engage with others easily, and you tend to inspire them with your big ideas or ambitious plans.


Your Sagittarius Ascendant acts like a guiding compass, urging you to see the world as a place of endless possibilities. You often position yourself as a leader or visionary in group settings, rallying others around a shared goal or belief.


Approach to Life:


As a Sagittarius Rising, life is an adventure, and you tend to embrace it with arms wide open. Your lens is expansive, always searching for meaning, truth, and experiences that broaden your horizons. Challenges are often met with courage and a belief that they’re stepping stones to something greater.


Your Ascendant also influences how you approach new beginnings, you dive in headfirst, often trusting your intuition to guide the way.


First Impressions and the Mask You Wear:


Others often see you as warm, energetic, and possibly a bit larger-than-life. Your humour and charm make you easy to connect with, while your adventurous streak ensures that people see you as dynamic and exciting. However, this expansive persona may sometimes mask a deeper vulnerability or need for grounding.


Who Are You in the World?


In the world, Sagittarius Rising positions you as the adventurer, the optimist, and the truth-seeker. You shine as someone who opens doors to new possibilities, encourages growth in others, and inspires with your vision of what life can be. With Sagittarius as your Ascendant, your presence reminds people that the journey is just as important as the destination.


Sagittarius Season

The Centaur

Sagittarius Season, occurring between November 21st and December 21st, is a time marked by the expansive, fiery, and transformative energy of this Jupiter-ruled sign. It is a season of growth, vision, and transition, as it occupies the liminal space between the darker days of late autumn and the growing promise of light at the Winter Solstice. Sagittarius Season embodies the Jovian principles of abundance, wisdom, and the pursuit of a higher purpose.


The Nature of Sagittarius Season:


  1. The Double-Bodied, Mutable Fire Sign: Sagittarius is a bicorporal sign, represented by the Centaur - a creature that bridges the terrestrial and the divine. This season reflects this dual nature, blending earthly, instinctive desires with an aspirational quest for higher meaning. As a mutable sign, it signals a time of transition and preparation, emphasising adaptability, exploration, and change.

  2. The Temple of Jupiter: Sagittarius is the domicile of Jupiter, the planet of growth, faith, and philosophical understanding. During this season, Jupiter's influence inspires a quest for truth and meaning, encouraging individuals to step outside of their comfort zones and embrace the unknown with optimism and courage.

  3. A Season of Expanding Horizons: With Jupiter as its ruler, Sagittarius Season invites expansive thinking and action. It's a time for seeking wisdom through travel, study, or spiritual practices. Philosophical questions take centre stage as individuals reflect on their beliefs and purpose. In this way, Sagittarius Season embodies both physical and intellectual journeys.


Themes of Sagittarius Season:


  1. The Transition of Light and Dark: In the northern hemisphere, Sagittarius Season begins in the depths of increasing darkness but ends with the Winter Solstice, when the light begins its return. This reflects the Sagittarian duality - recklessness and hope, challenge and redemption. It is a time to consider what must be left behind and what new possibilities lie ahead.

  2. Wisdom and Philosophia: Sagittarius embodies Jupiter’s gift of philosophical inquiry and higher knowledge. This sign relates to the pursuit of wisdom, not merely for practical application but as an end in itself. Sagittarius Season invites contemplation on universal truths and ethical questions that extend beyond the individual.

  3. Excess and Moderation: The Jovian influence of Sagittarius often tempts toward excess - overindulgence, overconfidence, and even recklessness. However, this season also contains the potential for tempered optimism, where the lessons of discernment and humility balance Jupiter’s boundless energy.

  4. Rebellion and the Hero’s Quest: Sagittarius Season, as the final fire sign of the zodiac, carries the energy of rebellion and salvation. The Centaur’s bow is aimed at distant targets, symbolising the hero’s journey toward something greater. It is a season of embracing challenge as a path to higher understanding.


Sagittarius Season’s Role in the Zodiacal Year:


Sagittarius Season bridges the depth and transformation of Scorpio with the discipline and structure of Capricorn. It is a season of gathering momentum before the hard work of the new year. It is the time to explore one’s guiding principles and to align actions with a higher vision.


This season is not just about individual exploration but also about preparing for a shift in collective energy. As the year draws to a close, Sagittarius invites us to reflect on the philosophical "why" behind our goals and choices, setting the stage for Capricorn’s "how."


This Sagittarius Season


This season begins the day after Pluto moves into Aquarius, finally leaving Capricorn for good until 2254. This move is significant and responses to the fear that Pluto can instil (which is linked with a fear of change) can be met with a higher perspective and an opportunity to see the bigger picture with The Sun in Sagittarius. Read my personal account of Pluto in Capricorn here and look out for a guide to Pluto in Aquarius which will be published very soon!


As the ruler of Sagittarius, Jupiter’s condition in the heavens during this time will significantly influence the season’s energy. A dignified Jupiter amplifies optimism and growth, while a challenged Jupiter may temper the season with excessive risk or unrealistic expectations. Jupiter is currently in detriment in Gemini, opposite Sagittarius, however the challenging significations of the placement are tempered in Sagittarius season because Mercury, Jupiter's host, is about to go retrograde in Sagittarius meaning there is mutual reception between the Gods and Mercury will be in the sign much longer than usual (Mercury leaves Sagittarius in early January).


Jupiter and Mercury are working together at this time. Mercury and Jupiter are opposing in nature, with Mercury focused on the details and Jupiter after the expansive perspective, and this is further highlighted by the opposition. Jupiter is also in retrograde. Together they are revising, rethinking and reworking in the arena of what we think and believe.

How can we get the best out of the season?


The heroes journey diagram

To get the best out of Sagittarius Season and align with its fiery, expansive energy, we must embrace its themes of exploration, growth, and philosophical inquiry. Sagittarius is about seeking truth and meaning, and working with this energy supports self-discovery, personal development, and aligning with our higher purpose. Here’s how to harness this season’s energy for self-work and becoming your best self:


1. Expand Your Horizons

Sagittarius Season invites you to step beyond your comfort zone and explore new perspectives. This can be done physically, intellectually, or spiritually.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Travel or explore new environments, even if it’s just visiting a nearby city or immersing yourself in a different culture.

    • Read books or take courses on topics that stretch your mind - philosophy, spirituality, or anything that challenges your worldview.

    • Try something adventurous, whether it’s an outdoor activity, creative pursuit, or a social event outside your usual circle.

  • Self-Work:

    Ask yourself: What are my limiting beliefs? How can I challenge them to grow? Growth requires embracing uncertainty and trusting the process.

 

2. Reconnect with Your Purpose

Sagittarius energy is purpose driven. It’s an ideal time to reflect on your larger life goals and align your actions with your values and vision.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Reflect on what gives your life meaning. Journal about your goals and aspirations.

    • Set intentions for the new year that align with your values, focusing on long-term vision rather than immediate results.

    • Re-evaluate your beliefs and ask: Are they still serving me, or do they need to evolve?

  • Self-Work:

    Use this time to focus on your why. Let your purpose guide your decisions, and let go of anything that feels misaligned or small in comparison to your higher vision.

 

3. Embrace Optimism and Faith

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion and abundance. Its energy encourages you to trust in life’s unfolding and lean into hope and possibility.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Practice gratitude to focus on the abundance in your life. Write daily about what you’re thankful for.

    • Take risks that align with your values, knowing that failure is often a stepping stone to success.

    • Spend time with optimistic, inspiring people who encourage you to dream bigger.

  • Self-Work:

    Ask yourself: Where am I holding back out of fear or doubt? How can I trust more in myself and the universe? Building faith in the process is a vital part of self-growth.

 

4. Practice Temperance

Jupiter’s influence can inspire overindulgence or recklessness. Balance Sagittarius’s expansive energy with moderation and mindfulness.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Set boundaries around activities like spending, eating, or saying “yes” to everything.

    • Prioritize your energy - focus on quality over quantity in both experiences and relationships.

    • Practice grounding rituals, such as yoga, meditation, or time in nature, to counterbalance the fiery energy of this season.

  • Self-Work:

    Reflect on areas of excess in your life. Ask: What do I need to let go of to make space for what truly matters? Sagittarius teaches us that true freedom comes from wise choices.

 

5. Seek Wisdom and Meaning

The heart of Sagittarius Season is the pursuit of knowledge and truth. This is a powerful time for spiritual practices, philosophical exploration, and connecting to something greater than yourself.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Spend time studying spiritual or philosophical texts.

    • Explore practices like astrology, meditation, or rituals that connect you to your inner wisdom and the cosmos.

    • Have meaningful conversations with others about life, purpose, and shared values.

  • Self-Work:

    Ask yourself: What do I believe in, and why? How do my beliefs shape my actions? Be open to evolving your worldview as you learn and grow.

 

6. Embody the Spirit of Adventure

Sagittarius reminds us that life is a journey, not just a destination. Embrace the joy of discovery and the beauty of the unknown.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Say yes to new opportunities, even if they scare you.

    • Take time for play and spontaneity - creativity and joy are essential to self-growth.

    • Reflect on the “adventures” in your life so far and how they’ve shaped you.

  • Self-Work:

    Ask yourself: Am I allowing myself to grow through new experiences, or am I clinging to what’s familiar? Trust that stepping into the unknown leads to transformation.

 

7. Build Community and Share Your Vision

Sagittarius is a social fire sign, emphasizing connection through shared ideas and experiences. Use this time to inspire others and be inspired in return.

  • Actionable Steps:

    • Join groups, workshops, or communities that share your interests or beliefs.

    • Share your thoughts, dreams, or creative work with others - it may spark meaningful connections.

    • Be open to learning from others’ perspectives and wisdom.

  • Self-Work:

    Reflect on your role in your community. Ask: How can I use my energy and vision to uplift and inspire others?

By balancing its expansive fire with mindfulness and intention, you can use this season to take significant steps toward becoming your best self.

Interesting Examples of Sagittarius Placements


Sagittarius Sun: Uri Gellar


Uri Geller, born on December 20, 1946, exemplifies the archetype of a Sagittarius Sun with his bold, adventurous spirit and boundary-pushing pursuits. As a famed illusionist, psychic, and entertainer, Geller embodies the Sagittarian drive to explore the unknown and challenge conventional thinking. Sagittarius, ruled by expansive Jupiter, thrives on exploring the realms of possibility, and Geller’s career as a psychic and mystic perfectly reflects this energy. His claims of extraordinary abilities, such as bending spoons with his mind, captivated audiences worldwide and sparked debates that stretched beyond the limits of scientific understanding - a quintessential Sagittarius trait. The Archer's aim toward truth and belief resonates deeply with Geller’s persona, as he often positions himself as a seeker of universal mysteries.


At the heart of Sagittarius is the tension between scepticism and faith, between what is provable and what is felt or believed. Geller’s life embodies this duality, as he has drawn both passionate believers and vocal critics. The Sagittarius Sun imbues him with optimism and an unshakable confidence in his abilities, enabling him to weather controversy and continue sharing his vision with the world. His charisma, philosophical musings, and audacious claims invite others to expand their perspectives, even if only for a moment. Like a true Sagittarius, Uri Geller’s life and work challenge us to question, explore, and believe in possibilities that extend beyond the ordinary.

Albert Camus Birth Chart

Sagittarius Moon: Neil Armstrong


Neil Armstrong, born on August 5, 1930, embodies the adventurous and philosophical spirit of a Sagittarius Moon through his profound connection to exploration, growth, and the pursuit of the unknown. The Moon governs our inner world and emotional instincts, and in Sagittarius, it creates a natural yearning for freedom, adventure, and higher meaning. Armstrong’s historic role as the first human to set foot on the Moon perfectly reflects this placement. His inner drive to break boundaries and explore the vastness of space aligns with Sagittarius’s quest for expansion and discovery. Emotionally, Sagittarius Moons feel fulfilled when they are venturing into uncharted territory and seeking answers to life's grandest questions, a theme Armstrong lived out in his ground-breaking career as an astronaut.


Sagittarius Moons also possess a philosophical and reflective quality, seeking to make sense of their experiences within a broader cosmic context. Armstrong’s famous words upon stepping onto the lunar surface, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”, encapsulate this Sagittarian trait of seeing personal achievements as part of a larger, more meaningful narrative. His calm and introspective demeanour, combined with his willingness to take risks in pursuit of a higher purpose, highlights the Sagittarius Moon’s ability to channel adventurous energy into profound contributions to humanity. Armstrong’s life story exemplifies the Sagittarius Moon’s emotional fulfilment through exploration, pushing boundaries, and inspiring others to look beyond the horizon.

Nostradamus Birth Chart

Sagittarius Rising: Alan Watts


Alan Watts, born January 6, 1915, is a profound example of a Sagittarius Rising, radiating the philosophical, optimistic, and exploratory energy that this Ascendant bestows. Sagittarius Risings are natural seekers, driven by a quest for wisdom, truth, and a deeper understanding of life. Watts, as a philosopher and writer, became a bridge between Eastern spiritual traditions and Western audiences, embodying the Sagittarian gift for cultural synthesis and global perspective. His life’s work centred on exploring profound existential questions, breaking boundaries of thought, and sharing his expansive insights with a wide audience, hallmarks of Sagittarius Rising's outward-facing, purpose-driven approach to life.


Sagittarius Rising individuals often inspire others to see the bigger picture, helping them step beyond limited perspectives. Watts famously said, "You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself," reflecting Sagittarius Rising’s cosmic curiosity and the urge to connect personal experience to universal truths. Another quote, "The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance," highlights the adventurous, open-hearted nature of Sagittarius, encouraging us to embrace life as an ongoing journey of discovery. His bold, exploratory spirit and ability to communicate complex ideas in an accessible and uplifting way illustrate why his rising sign shines through his work and legacy. Watts’ life exemplifies the Sagittarius Rising’s role as a guide and philosopher, ever pointing toward the horizon of infinite possibilities.
