On Saturday, December 20, 2025, the new moon is in Sagittarius, the ninth sign of the zodiac. Sagittarius represents expansion, vision, philosophy, and the acquisition and sharing of wisdom. Broadening your horizons, following your passion and curiosity, and reflecting more deeply on the direction of your life will now take center stage. The energy of this new moon can give you an extra boost in making intentions and plans for the new year.
The lunar cycle reflects the different phases that we go through as humans and as nature. The new moon marks both an end and a new beginning: the starting point of a new cycle. The winter season also starts on this day. This makes it a time of stillness, turning inward, and reflection. An energetic reset takes place, as it were.
Because this new moon is in Sagittarius, there may be a strong urge to look ahead and make plans that stem from a deeper desire for meaning. Think of travel, new studies, spiritual growth, or passions that truly touch your heart. A clear realization may arise of what is essential for you and which layers of existence require more attention.
Also, the desire for meaningful connections and sharing experiences with others can be strengthened. This new moon coincides with the last weeks of the year, a period that – despite the liveliness of the holidays – naturally invites reflection. Because January is seen in the Western world as the beginning of a new year, many of us feel the need to look back: what can be closed and what do you want to take with you, do differently, or let go of?
Because the sun, Venus, and Mercury are also in Sagittarius in addition to the moon, this energy is extra emphasized. If this feels intense or overwhelming, it is good to remember that the new moon does not ask for direct action. It is now about attunement, listening to your heart, and setting intentions. The action follows automatically, at the right time.
Sagittarius invites you to look beyond the boundaries of your comfort zone and take active and courageous steps. It doesn’t stop at just dreaming or longing; this sign wants to gain experiences and be in life. Sagittarius understands that the world is only as big as your mind allows, and knows that beyond limiting beliefs lies a sea of possibilities.
By nature, Sagittarius is curious, philosophical, and inquisitive. He sees truth in different perspectives and explores them with an open mind, always looking for meaning and perhaps even his own place in the world. Freedom is essential: feeling the space to follow these fiery, inner impulses, even if they don’t always seem logical to the outside world.
During this new moon, growth is central. You may be challenged to re-examine areas in your life that have become safe, comfortable, or routine. The question that arises is: what do you deeply desire, but postpone out of fear or doubt, and even excuses?
Dare to think big, set an intention, and trust that the ‘how’ will unfold as you walk the path. The new moon in Sagittarius is not about certainty or a fully mapped-out plan. It’s about not getting stuck in the past or letting yourself be held back by old beliefs. It is a free pass to dare to follow your enthusiasm and optimism and do what makes you happy.
For especially earth and air signs, this energy can sometimes feel chaotic, as if you are being pulled forward without the current moment feeling solid enough. Maybe it even feels like you are losing your grip. Yet Sagittarius reminds us that following your heart does not need a future moment. The right moment is always now, and absolute certainty is an illusion.
At the same time, this energy asks for awareness. Feel with each step which grounded actions are needed, so that you do not get lost in enthusiasm but remain connected with yourself and the world around you. With compassion, love, patience, and your feet firmly on the earth. Because without ground, no steps.
