Yesterday was Thanksgiving here, and I want you to know: I'm grateful for you. Whether we know each other or not, thank you for reading these emails and taking an interest in the cosmic patterns underlying this reality we share.

In gratitude, I have three very special holiday offers listed in the bottom of this blog, but first: here's your Sagittarius season guide:

🏹 Sagittarius

Dates: November 21-December 21
Element: Fire
Modality: Mutable (Circulating, Changing)
Ruling Planet: Jupiter
Body Connection: Hips, Thighs, Liver
Chakra: Svadhisthana (Sacral Chakra), the seat of joy and creative flow
Seasonal Themes: Expansion, wisdom, freedom, higher education, faith, travel, and adventure

♐️ From Depth to Discovery

Sagittarius follows Scorpio in the zodiac, and the energetic tone shifts from depth and transformation into expansion and exploration. Where Scorpio represents our willingness to explore what's hidden in the dark, Sagittarius helps us to see the light that's always shining in the dark.

Sagittarius holds the key to seeing that life is always giving us new tools for our soul journey in every circumstance we encounter. Where most people see the mundane, Sagittarius sees the light of truth. When we take care of these truths in the small circumstances of life, Sagittarius helps us lift our gaze to the horizon of possibility.

Above all else, Sagittarius is the sign that believes in higher truth and isn't afraid to act on it. Philosophy is only as good as its application, and this is the season to live your beliefs by taking bold, brave steps toward your highest unfolding.

Sagittarius Energy in the Body

Sagittarius rules the hips, thighs, and liver: the areas that allow us to move forward with purpose. the hips and thighs propel us into the world, symbolizing movement, adventure, and the courage to take the next step.

The liver, associated with emotional processing, helps us metabolize food as well as experience. When energy stagnates here, we might feel frustrated or constrained. When it flows freely, that energy fuels inspired action out in the world.

🌌 Astrology + What's Happening This Sagittarius Season

Sagittarius season began with some huge solar activity, creating a major upset in the Schumann resonance and setting the stage for big shifts this season.

In addition to this, Mercury retrograde, Saturn retrograde, and Neptune retrograde all conclude this Sagittarius season, bringing us from the inner realms back into the realms of action.

We are also leaving behind a major grand trine formation in water from Scorpio season, and moving into a time when what we've been imagining begins to take shape through what we choose to do and where we focus our minds, bodies, and actions.

Here's what's happening:

Major increase of solar wind activity: November 25-27.
Saturn and Mercury Station Direct: November 27 and 29, respectively. This marks an outward and forward movement of the mind and how we respond to life's realities and challenges.
Full Moon in Gemini, plus our members-only AMA (ask-me-anything) where I read your charts. The meet up is December 3 and full moon is December 4.
Neptune Stations Direct: December 10. This will be Neptune's final move through Pisces before moving into Aries to start a new cycle through the zodiac on January 26.
New Moon in Sagittarius, plus our members-only AMA (ask-me-anything) where I read your charts. The meet up is December 17 and full moon is December 19. We will also discuss the full moon in Cancer and Solstice. Don't miss this one!

Not a member? If you'd like to understand how the ins and outs of astrology are affecting your life, I break this down + read personal astrology charts twice each month for members at the International School of AstroYoga. Membership is $50/month, and right now, you'll also receive a free 30-minute personal astrology reading when you join.

🧘 Yoga Practices for Sagittarius Season:

Postures that move energy through the hips and thighs: warrior I, warrior II, humble warrior, and archer's pose are all ideal.
Postures that lift and move energy through the torso: upward-facing dog and cobra work well here .
Ujayii pranayama: breathe deeply to move energy through the body and convert stored energy in the liver, hips, and thighs into useable energy.

🏹 Embody the energy: Sagittarius AstroYoga Flow

To help you embody and act on your beliefs this Sagittarius season, join me for the Sagittarius AstroYoga Flow: a 60-minute practice + 10-minute talk designed to connect you to Sagittarius energy and align you with the season.
