Kicking off the holiday season, the planets leave serious Scorpio behind for adventurous and optimistic Sagittarius. Energetically, it’s a big change. Here’s how to make the most of it.
Sun entering Sagittarius, November 22
The ninth sign of the zodiac, Sagittarius is associated with adventure, expansion, a quest for truth and wisdom, and a zest for life. Ruled by Jupiter, this fiery sign fits the energy of the Sun well: during Sagittarius season, we feel more optimistic and generous, eager to get together and exchange stories, and perhaps indulge a bit more than we should. And yes, we may end up spending more money than we’d planned to, but that’s okay, as the bulk of it will go to gifts and donations. Such is the spirit of the season!
Mars entering Sagittarius, November 24
Mars is the planet of action and confrontation, and while its energy made us strategic when the planet was in Scorpio, now things take a more chaotic turn. Drunken confrontations, speaking out of turn, flirting awkwardly and ending up insulting people are all possible during Sagittarius season. But the good news is that we’re going to have a lot of fun: brave Sagittarius knows how to take risks, and with Mars multiplying that energy we won’t miss out on any parties, trips, or exciting last minute gatherings.
How to make the most of Sagittarius season
Here are some ways to align yourself with the Archer energy:
- Attend that social gathering
Even if you don’t feel like it at first, chances are that you’ll have a great time and you’ll learn new things. - Pick your battles
You may encounter a lot of things that anger you, particularly on social media. Don’t waste precious time and energy arguing with strangers on the internet. - Be mindful of your alcohol consumption
It’s very easy to overdo it this season, and you may end up saying and doing things that you will regret the next day. - Allow yourself to make mistakes and experiment
Whether you’re learning a new skill, studying a new subject or even cooking a new recipe, don’t get frustrated if things don’t go according to plan. Mistakes are part of the process. - Be open to different perspectives
Sagittarius is all about breaking free from dogma and pursuing your own truth. You never know when you might meet someone who will share something mind-blowing. You might be surprised!
