Expect to be go-go-go this weekend, thanks to the full moon in Sagittarius on May 23
The Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius is happening on May 23, 2024.
During this astrological event, you’ll want to make the most of your summer plans.
The full moon impacts all zodiac signs, but Sagittarius and Gemini will feel it most.
After waiting for summer to finally arrive, the best season of the year—I said it—is *so* close. Naturally, you’ve got plans to make this your biggest, best one yet.
But on your quest for an epic summer filled with sunshine and good times, you’ll probably notice that you’re packing your calendar with a ton of activities. That’s no accident: There’s an astrological event happening now that’s pushing you to stay busy.
The Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius is happening on May 23, 2024, and during this time, you’ll be all over the map, but in a good way, says Donna Page, a certified astrologer with a professional counselling degree in Atlanta. Of course, that just scratches the surface of what's in store for your zodiac sign.
Here’s what else you can expect from the Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius, plus the influence it’ll have on your summer—and life—going forward.
So, what is the Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius?
Just a quick astrology recap: As you probably know, the moon goes through different phases, and a full moon is when it’s big, bright, and shining down like a glorious ball in the sky.
This full moon's name comes from a mix of Native American, Colonial American, and European sources. The Full Flower Moon gets its name because it tends to happen at the same time as flowers bloom all over North America, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac. (Unfortunately, it doesn’t mean that flowers will suddenly bloom on the moon or anything, but that would be cool.)
In astrology, each full moon lines up with a different astrological sign, giving it a special feel. This one is synced with fiery Sagittarius, so you can expect the vibe to be adventurous. After all, Sag is known for its bold spirit and go-getter attitude.
How will the Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius impact your zodiac sign?
There are a few layers happening here. The first—and biggest—is that the Full Flower Moon is going to light a fire under your booty to get you moving. 'It really emphasises a sense of wanting to be on the go,' Page says. You’ll find yourself running from happy hour to late-night BBQs to pre-work yoga sessions in the park with your buddies, and loving every second of it.
At the same time, you’ll also crave the freedom to do whatever you want. 'Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, which wants you to be able to take risks,' Page says. 'You’ll get a feeling of, ‘If I don’t do this, I’ll never know if I can make something happen or not.’' That’ll push you to have some deep thoughts about making big moves. You might apply for a new job that feels slightly out of reach, or consider a literal huge move across the country. Anything is possible, so why not give it a shot?
When you’re not busy making plans and bold moves, this full moon will also encourage to set aside some dedicated time to kick back with the people you love. 'You want to laugh and be joyful—it’s a very playful type of full moon,' Page says. Basically, if you’re looking for a reason to take off early for the Bank Holiday weekend and just have some good old fashioned fun, the Full Flower Moon is here to write your permission slip.
The full moon will impact all zodiac signs, but Page says that Sagittarius and Gemini will feel it the most.
How will the Full Flower Moon in Sagittarius impact your future?
Make sure you put everything in your calendar as soon as you RSVP, because you’re going to be next-level busy around this time. If you don’t, there’s a solid chance you'll forget you agreed to do something—and accidentally annoy a friend in the process.
Being such a social butterfly will remind you how much you love getting out and mixing things up. But, of course, it's always possible to have too much of a good thing. That’s why you'll aim for a solid balance going forward, making sure to block out some 'me' time between all those epic plans.
Not only that, but the Full Flower Moon will also push you to be a little bolder in your day-to-day from now on. Whether it’s volunteering for a new challenge at work or asking that cutie from the coffee shop out, you’ll find life is way more interesting when you take risks.
When is the next full moon?
The next full moon is June 22, 2024 in the sign of Capricorn. During this full moon, you’ll feel an urge to get out there and make a difference. But, for now, just enjoy all the fun in the sun summer has to offer.
