Sagittarius, as we enter a new week, there will be various impacts on your life, from many planetary influences to moon placements. There’s a strong focus on balance, emotional regulation, self-care, bold action, and spiritual exploration. With your relationships, family life, career, and finances, you’ll want to remain open to unexpected happenings and practice clear and thoughtful thinking through communication with everyone you meet this week. So, let’s dive into what this week looks like for you, Sagittarius!
Moon Phases
This week, the moon phases are in waxing gibbous and will hit 99.1% illumination by the time we reach the full moon next Sunday, May 12th. We start the week with the moon in Leo, which is also the opposite of Pluto, and because of this, you’ll need to focus on calming your self-doubt as you have so much time to perfect your talents and grow as a person, Sagittarius! May 6th and 7th, we find the moon in Virgo, and for you, Sagittarius, this means an awakened passion for something new or a focus on new academic goals. You may also have significant responsibility in other areas of your life.
When the moon moves into Libra on the 8th and 9th, you’ll finally find the answers you’ve been searching for. You will likely rekindle your confidence from within, too. Finally, when the moon is in Scorpio starting on May 10th, you’ll want to use this time to focus on meditation, resting, and self-care before we get into the very intense Full Moon in Scorpio on the 12th.
Planetary Influences
As usual, your ruling planet, Jupiter, will surround you this week, Sagittarius, as will Venus and Mercury. On May 6th, Venus is in a sextile to Pluto, which creates a reenergization in creativity and communication. It’s a time of both expressions, and you will come across confessions and truth, both of which will shift the dynamics in your life.
On May 10th, Mercury enters Taurus for two weeks. Mercury will be in your wellness zone and routine sector during this time, where Venus lies in your chart. This will create a focus on simplifying your routines and prioritizing self-care. During these two weeks, Sagittarius, the groundwork will be laid for profound transformations. Finally, while the Sun is still in Taurus, this week focuses on practicality, grounding, and self-care.
Important Dates
One specific vital date to focus on this week, Sagittarius, is May 7th. On this day, unexpected events will be in store for you as the Virgo Moon aligns with Uranus in Taurus. But don’t worry, those unexpected events will be positive! The beginning of the week will also focus on the need to explore higher learning possibilities as Mercury greatly emphasizes your natural thirst for knowledge. Midweek, you’re likely to receive support from your family, but you should also be mindful of making impulsive decisions. By the end of the week, you’ll have an increased urge to travel, but it’s not recommended to travel alone on Saturday, so make it an adventure with friends, family, or partners!
Weekly Forecast
Overall, this week focuses on the themes of communication, expansion, spiritual growth, and career development. As we get closer to the explosive Full Moon in Scorpio, you’ll want to use this time to clear the air, make amends, and tie up any loose ends you need. So, what do specific areas of your life look like this week? Let’s dive in!
Relationships and Family
In your family life this week, Sagittarius, you’ll have that strong family support mid-week, as we’ve mentioned, but it’s also possible that there may be some uneasiness in your family as well. Be sure to utilize your communication skills and lean on Mercury for aid in managing any disputes arising this week.
In your other relationships this week, there will be many deep conversations and emotional connections, making it a harmonious week for your love life. You’ll feel comfortable expressing your feelings and emotions with your partner; someone from your past might reappear unexpectedly if you’re single. Remember your magnetism, Sagittarius, and be mindful of your words this week.
Career and Finance
Sagittarius, you’ll need to focus on your long-term goals regarding your finances this week. You’ll need to monitor impulsive spending, especially as the weekend draws near. Highly desired recognition at work will come this week, with the possibility of the further advancement you’ve been hoping for. Stay open to new ideas and projects, and as always, keep your communication clear.
Final Thoughts
Self-care is of vital importance this week, Sagittarius. Focus on keeping up with your good work/life balance, remain optimistic, and don’t be afraid to continue stepping outside your comfort zone. Remember that the full moon in Scorpio that follows this week will be very intense, which is why self-care is so important this week. You must take the time for self-reflection and meditation to keep your mind and body grounded as you work through this week. Stay confident, Sagittarius!
