Truth & Intention ~New Moon Sagittarius 28 deg.

The New Moon in Sagittarius illuminates a powerful stellium in this far-reaching, far-seeing sign, stirring our innate desire to explore, to grow, and to orient ourselves toward meaning and possibility. Sagittarius reminds us to lift our gaze—to look beyond the immediate horizon and imagine a life shaped by truth, purpose, and faith in what could be.

Yet this lunation does not unfold without friction. The forward momentum of Sagittarius is met with a square to Saturn, now direct in Pisces. This is the pause—the reality check. Saturn asks for structure, commitment, and accountability. Dreams alone are not enough. Where Sagittarius seeks freedom and expansion, Saturn requires form, boundaries, and follow-through. This tension may feel heavy or sobering, but it is also deeply clarifying: What is sustainable? What is real? What are you willing to work for?

Adding another layer, Neptune’s square to the New Moon, can leave us feeling slightly insecure—reaching for the stars while realizing we still live here on Earth. Inspiration and uncertainty sit side by side. The path forward may feel hazy, asking us to slow down and get honest about what is truly possible right now. The essential question becomes: What is your plan? How will you translate vision into action without bypassing the practical realities of your life?

Supporting this lunation is a flowing trine to Chiron, the wounded healer. This is where the medicine lives. Chiron reminds us that belief in our future is shaped by what we have healed within ourselves. By tending to old wounds, self-doubt, or fear of failure, we strengthen our capacity to trust that we can accomplish what we set our hearts, minds, and steady effort toward. Healing becomes the bridge between vision and embodiment.

This New Moon calls for grounded intention—not just what you hope for, but what you are willing to build. Not just inspiration, but daily devotion to the work. When vision (Sagittarius), discipline (Saturn), compassion (Neptune), and healing (Chiron) are integrated, dreams become more than wishes—they become something real, sustainable, and lived.
