The Sun In Sagittarius

When the Sun enters expansive Sagittarius, it’s time to open our hearts and souls to all the great opportunities the world has to offer! Sagittarius is a bold Fire sign that loves to travel, have fun, and learn new things, so now is a time to take that trip, read that book, or take that class. It's certainly time to start something fresh.

Luck runs high and optimism rules under the Sagittarius Sun. Rather than focusing on what we can’t do, it’s time to realize all the things we can do. Rise beyond your limits, and go big or go home. Watch out, though - Sagittarius is known as the sign of big truth and big lies. Because this sign is ruled by huge, expansive Jupiter, it’s hard not to exaggerate a little (or a lot) under the Sagittarius Sun.

Mercury In Sagittarius

Mercury is concerned with getting down to the nitty-gritty, and Sagittarius likes looking at life through a broader lens. Because Sagittarius always has its sights set on the future, Mercury’s presence in this sign supports visions of tomorrow. The trick is to use meticulous Mercury’s knack for filling in all the details so the picture you’re selling is the one that actually develops.

Exuberant Sagittarius adds a touch of excitement wherever he goes, which means Mercury in Sagittarius can be a time of enthusiastic words, confident messages, and passionate debates. The key to this transit is to drop your prejudices, but not your reason. In the desire to find the answers to life’s biggest questions, it’s imperative that we appreciate different points of view.

We must all remember to think before we speak while Mercury is in Sagittarius! That’s because things could come flying out of our mouths without checking to see if they’re true, or before considering other’s feelings. We need to triple-check our words during this transit, so we don’t end up coming across as fools, or saying things we don’t really mean...

Sagittarius is represented by the Archer, the explorer, which means our possibilities are endless while Mercury is traveling here! We’re encouraged to broaden our minds and horizons now, making this a great time to start thinking about taking a trip somewhere, going back to school, or starting a new job.

Venus In Sagittarius

Hearts come out of hiding while Venus moves through Sagittarius. The happy and free energy of Sagittarius turns Venus up a few notches, encouraging us to live life to the fullest. This is a time to socialize, to try new things, and to look for love in different places.

Sagittarius is the sign of the adventurer, so when Venus is traveling through this sign, we find ourselves drawn to exotic people, places, and experiences. Old routines and worn-out relationships are at risk of being traded in for something bigger, brighter, and better while Venus is in Sagittarius. We want to expand beyond our usual boundaries, and may give up some of our comfortable patterns of the past to try out new experiences. Love needs to grow during this transit -- it will not stand still.

Sagittarius doesn’t like to be tied down, so during Venus’ dance here, it’s best to keep love light and open, and avoid taking things too seriously. Those in a relationship can liven things up by taking a trip to a place neither of you have been, or signing up for a class to learn something new together. Singles could find love where they least expect it while Venus is in Sagittarius. Things that feel totally different are especially exciting now, and new lovers may be found through travel, or in school, a book club, or other areas of learning.

Trust and honesty matter greatly while Venus is in Sagittarius. We want to believe the best, but things can often be exaggerated during this transit, and we may realize we’re being taken for a ride. People, places, and things all appear grander than ever, but once the glitter wears off, we may see that they aren’t so great after all.

While Venus is in Sagittarius, we want excitement and pleasure, and we want it now. We could quickly empty our wallets without even giving it a second thought. Sagittarius likes a little risk, including financially. Excessive spending, gambling, and frivolity should be watched carefully during this transit. However, investing some money in a new course of study or a faraway travel experience is a way to use this energy for good.

With Venus in Sagittarius, we have an amazing opportunity to look at the bright side of everything. The more possibility and positivity we put out now, the more we’ll receive in return.
