Our lives are full of opportunities to start over, however, every so often there is a powerful and potent energy that makes new beginnings far easier to accomplish.

The full moon on Tuesday, May 29th, in the zodiac sign of Sagittarius, will be the exact frequency needed to give us the cosmic push we have been waiting for so that we stop procrastinating and start focusing on putting our lives into gear by manifesting dramatic change.

We will all feel this moon’s intensity, regardless of which zodiac sign we are born under, but those born under Sagittarius will be affected more than others.

Sagittarius’ powerful vibration has been building over this past week and many will already have been feeling the fire, strength, and intensity emanating from it, which may have caused us to feel as though something major is about to happen—and it is. 

Sagittarius is representative of fire energy, and is a wild and adventurous sign which will be pushing us toward reaching our greatest wishes and dreams. If we have been hoping and praying for something incredible, now is the time to put in the hard work to make it happen and believe that it can and will. 

We will have a more positive mindset, and feel highly charged, energetic, and ready to take on the world. Distractions and obstacles will be swept out of the way and we’ll find ourselves effortlessly sailing toward exactly what we’ve secretly had our eye on for some time. 

This may mean we find ourselves in a position to deeply connect with someone we’ve noticed from afar, or our current relationship may suddenly be refuelled with passion and renewed commitment. A career opportunity may present itself and open new doors, we may choose to travel to a distant country, or we could relocate, perhaps starting fresh in a new country or even on the other side of the world.

This daring full moon is quite literally forcing us to step out of our comfort zones and courageously head toward whatever ignites our fire, without the over-cautious and destructive over-thinking or fear-based excuses that normally arise whenever incredible energy and life-changing opportunities come our way.

Where we’d normally be taking time to ponder major decisions, we will intuitively know that what opens to us during this full moon phase is exactly what we want and need, and we will not hesitate to make up our minds when magnificent offers present themselves. We will receive a glimpse into our future and finally understand what we need to do to alter our circumstances so we can eliminate anything or anyone toxic. 

Sagittarius is philosophical, spiritual, and free-thinking, and is always searching for the deeper meaning in life, exploring unknown territory, the reason for existence, and looking to align closely to their personal mission here on Earth. It is an ambitious, optimistic, motivated, and creative sign, which means those born under it have the optimum qualities and mindset required to manifest exactly what they want, and deserve, in life. 

We can all take advantage of Sagittarius’ wealth of inner wisdom, vast esoteric knowledge, expansive worldview, and bold energy while it is in full flow. This will allow us to redirect our focus so we recognise what we need to do to achieve our goals, and take action with determination, faith, and conviction that we can do, and receive, anything we set our minds to. 

Fortunately, Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of transformation and opportunity, whose evolutionary goal is to assist us on our conquest of reaching our fullest and highest human expression. 

Everything we have hoped for has the greatest possibility of becoming a reality under Sagittarius’ empowering influence, and it is our responsibility to work on our manifestation skills so we send out a concise and clear message to the universe that we are ready and willing to receive exactly what is meant for us. It is vital to remember that if we don’t receive exactly what we hope for, it is likely for good reason, as the universe will organise and arrange people, situations, and events to align with our individual needs. 

How to manifest on the Sagittarius full moon:

The first thing to remember about manifesting is that our vibrational frequency is the greatest factor in determining what type of energy we bring into our lives. Our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, values, and intentions all influence our vibration, so we must be mindful of what we think, feel, and believe so we are crystal clear about what it is we want to manifest. 

To attract and receive what we want, our mind and heart must both agree; if our heart wants one thing and our mind is asking for something else, this creates confusion, making it unlikely that our manifesting will be successful.

Our physical reality is a mirror image of our energetic reality, and is the clearest way to see how we feel about ourselves on the inside, as we are constantly looking to create an external existence that matches with our internal existence. It is also essential not to put up resistance through energetic boundaries or blockages that will limit the potential abundance of our manifestations.

Many of the situations in our lives are there because at a soul level we need to gain a deeper understanding and awareness of who we are. Our personal circumstances are reflections of our character, such as our genuine nature, our level of understanding, forgiveness, and acceptance, as well as our oppressed, rejected, or denied personality flaws or unhealed wounds. Therefore, although we may not see it at the time, many of our interactions are blessings that, when acknowledged, can be profound lessons propelling us forward.

During a full moon, a powerful portal opens creating a window of opportunity that allows us to make great shifts in our lives. Full moons clear out old, negative energies to make way for fresh, positive, new beginnings—which is why we often feel extra intense during this period, as we go through an emotional unearthing and cleansing phase. This exact energy is ideal for manifesting as before we attract newness into our lives we must first make space for it by clearing out anything that no longer serves our highest good. 

We then have a two-week period, starting at the full moon and ending with the next new moon, in which we can do the cleansing work needed so we are prepared and ready for our magnificent manifestation to occur. Following a salt water bath on the evening of the full moon, if possible, find a comfortable place outdoors to sit beneath the moon, preferably by water, such as a lake or the ocean.

The following meditation can help us manifest whatever we desire, while also helping us remain calm and peaceful during this highly charged Sagittarius full moon:

Meditation helps us remain in the present moment, so whenever we notice our thoughts casting back or projecting forward, we can gently bring them back to the here and now.

Sit crossed-legged with a straight spine, head slightly lowered and fingers in the chin mudra position—if this isn’t comfortable, choose any seated or lying down position with the hands together in front of the chest, palms lightly together, and thumbs and little fingers touching one another.

Deeply inhale through the nose, feeling the belly area expand and hold for approximately five seconds. As we inhale, we may feel the chest expanding slightly as this allows the heart chakra to open and lets loving energy circulate. We can then exhale slowly through the mouth. Pause for a few seconds before deeply inhaling again as above and then exhaling once again, while allowing any thoughts in the mind to come and go.

We may notice one significant thought continuously repeats. If so, focus attention on it briefly, acknowledge any feelings attached to it, and on the exhale breath envisage gently blowing the thought away. Continue this process with other persistent thoughts and allow each of them a few moments before softy releasing them.

When we feel more calm, we can inhale deeply while keeping our awareness on whatever we wish to incorporate into our life. On the exhale breath we can focus on whatever we wish to eradicate from our life.

If it helps, we can think of a mantra or phrase to repeat that relates to our manifestation, so we send a clear vibrational message out to the universe stating exactly what we want. One example could be, “I am open to giving and receiving unlimited, unconditional love,” or, “I am inviting in a positive new beginning for…” We can also try visualizing a person, place, or object that is connected to our new start and invokes positive feelings. On the exhale breath, we can choose a mantra that lovingly releases what we no longer want, such as, “I am letting go of…with love and gratitude.”

As we remain in this calm setting, we may begin to feel a warm and optimistic sensation rippling through our body and mind. The more faith we have in our ability to manifest, the greater chance we have of attuning our thoughts and feelings to the lunar energy so that they can come true.

Each inhale of breath signifies a new beginning, and each exhale signifies an ending. As we continue inhaling and exhaling, our beginnings and endings will start to flow as one, allowing the desired new intentions to firmly embed in our hearts and minds.

The above exercise may seem simple, however it will cause a powerful shift to take place that can directly affect our future, as we have set a clear intention for what we want to receive. We don’t need to worry if we change our minds about what we want right now—we can alter our intentions by repeating the exercise and changing the mantra whenever we choose.

Once we have completed the meditation, we can transfer our new empowered thinking, wishes, and beliefs into our daily lives so that we start living as though every small step we are taking gets us closer to our dreams.

Burning sage at the end of this ritual will assist with cleansing any negative energy that lingers and will charge the atmosphere with a positive, high vibration. We can then ground and center ourselves by drinking a glass of water with a few sprinkles of pink Himalayan salt in it while remaining aware that we are safely supported by the earth below us.

If possible, carry out the above meditation each evening, from the full moon on May 29th until the new moon on June 13th, to greatly enhance the manifestation energy. 

This is an intense phase that will cleanse anything toxic from our lives, including bad habits, unhealthy patterns, reactive behaviours, outdated beliefs, and irrational fear-based thoughts and feelings that drain our energy and leave us feeling anxious and burnt out. Ties that energetically bind us to people or situations that are detrimental to us or that limit us in any way will easily be severed during this period, and we will feel the freedom to walk away with peace, love, compassion, and forgiveness.

To align with this rare Sagittarius full moon energy, it is vital that we remain consciously aware at all times so that we regularly evaluate, empty, release, and cleanse. This way, we are fully prepared to shake off whatever (or whoever) has been holding us back, and can move onward on our evolutionary soul journey with the best chance of attaining happiness, harmony, pure love, and genuine heart-centred connections.

This is a time for believing that we are capable of possibilities far beyond anything we have previously dreamed of, as during this fully illuminated lunar phase we will feel limitless, as though nothing is out of our grasp. The full moon and Sagittarius energy combine to create the optimum conditions to intently focus on what we want to achieve and to motivate us to make a detailed plan to ensure our life-changing goals manifest with ease and quickly become our new reality.

This is a pivotal time to frequently repeat positive, uplifting affirmations, as what occurs now can take us to an important and beautiful phase in our lives—and the only way to reach this is by letting go of the limiting thoughts, feelings, and unhealthy attachments that subconsciously keep us anchored to things we no longer want.
