What a new moon in Sagittarius means
The new moon in Sagittarius sows on the horizon: travel, higher studies, philosophy, publishing, foreign places and everything that enlarges your world. Its intentions concern the meaning to give the coming months and the faith it takes to move forward.
It loves big projects, provided you give them a first step. The full moon in Sagittarius, in May or June, will show how far the arrow flew. Phrase an intention that scares you a little because it is so big: that is the right size.
