‘Tis finally the season! But before we break out the presents and tell Alexa to play the song of the season — yes, I am referring to the super smash hit “All I Want for Christmas Is You” — we have to get through the first 24 days of December and the rest of Sagittarius season. Beginning on Tuesday, Mercury (planet of communication) in Sagittarius goes into an electric sextile with Saturn (planet of limitations) in Aquarius along with the sun.
Aquarius’ normally zany energy is a little more tempered in Saturn, so this energy gives the collective the opportunity to properly harness the otherwise chaotic Sagittarian energy. The next day, Neptune (planet of illusion) in Pisces returns to her direct movement, de-hazing the additional confusion caused by the planet’s retrograde motion.
Most interestingly, this week closes with a solar eclipse on Saturday. Although it’s also a new moon, this isn’t the best time to manifest our desires. Instead, consider glancing backward at the year at large and simply the past. The future glimmers brightly ahead, so in true Sag spirit, release what’s been ailing you and forge ahead!
Sagittarius season has only just begun, but I’m sure you’re already knee-deep in shenanigans, Aries.

Sagittarius season calls for adventure, and there’s one to be found everywhere!
