The Sagittarius full moon bolsters expansion beyond your “borders” of what’s comfortable and familiar. Under the influence of the globetrotting Archer, packing your bags for an epic getaway is wholeheartedly encouraged!
If you can’t literally travel, seek fresh horizons through education, personal-growth work and experiences that push you into inspiring new terrain. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
The Sagittarius moon also maximizes everything in its path. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to launch an idea, a plan, a project—now is the time!
Love also expands at the Sagittarius full moon
Single (or sort-of single?) Do you need to diversify your dating portfolio? If you keep going out with the same person in a different package over and over (and over!), that would be an obvious YES! Since Sagittarius is the zodiac’s cultural ambassador, you could find a love connection with someone outside your usual crowd. Let go of the idea that you have a type. An open mind could will open your heart.
Coupled? Have you slipped into an old-marrieds groove? Yawn no more! This fiery and excitement-boosting full moon in Sagittarius activates the spirit of adventure in love, too. Expand beyond comfortable and familiar “borders.”
This Sagittarius full moon favors multicultural mingling, baecations and romantic retreats where you can learn a sultry new skill like erotic massage or tantra. How far are you willing to travel beyond your comfort zone? If you’re stuck in a rut, a nakedly honest conversation can bring back the heat.

Hello, new horizons! The Sagittarius full moon illuminates your international ninth house, giving you a serious case of wanderlust. What’s more, this lunar light could bring a supersized opportunity in a distant locale. Be ready to cross county lines—or maybe international borders—on a moment’s notice, Ram. Alternatively, you could be rolling out the welcome mat for a globetrotting guest. People from different backgrounds or countries are primed to make a positive impact on your life over the coming two weeks, so look far beyond city limits for the connections you crave.

Taurus (April 19-May 20)
Springtime sizzle, here we go! The fiery Sagittarius full moon in your erotic eighth house awakens the desires you’ve kept within. From sexy role-playing games to experimenting with tantra, allow yourself to revel in getting your motor purring. This lunar light is the manifestation point of something you set into motion six months ago, near the corresponding new moon. Officializing vibes are in the air, possibly turning an on-again, off-again connection into the real deal. Just don’t settle for a purely physical connection. Emotions will invariably become involved. A joint business venture or investment could also manifest today.

Gemini (May 20-June 20)
It takes two to make a thing go right. The Sagittarius full moon activates your seventh house of partnerships, setting the scene for committed bonding.

On the flip side, this lunar light could make it clear that it’s time to move on from a lukewarm alliance that shows little promise for the future. Regardless of the direction your pairings take, relationships will substantially evolve over the next two weeks. Go with the flow instead of struggling to maintain the status quo.

Show YOU the money! The Sagittarius full moon in your second house of cash and work could bring you a major windfall or the opportunity to scale the ladder of success.
