Sagittarius season is brimming with opportunities to make the most of November and December, from getting together with loved ones and cheering on your favorite football team to planning holiday get-togethers.
In fact, from now until the end of the year, your calendar may feel a little too full. That’s because the festive, jovial fire sign is all about going big, and it’s ruled by Jupiter, the planet of abundance. The more fun, laughter, coziness, and socializing there is, the better.
However, partying is not the season’s only focus. The Sagittarius season also increases your desire to spread your wings, move beyond the mundane, identify and celebrate unfiltered truths, and soak up knowledge at every opportunity. Because Mars, the planet of action, is following the sun into Sagittarius in 2023, it’s also a good time to get out of your comfort zone and possibly spread your wings by taking a long-distance trip or learning something new.
Given Venus’s transit through Scorpio, this is a good time to think about how you can deepen intimacy in your relationships. And, as the season progresses, be prepared to slow down and retrace your steps, as the fourth and final Mercury retrograde of the year occurs on December 12-13 (depending on your time zone).
Here’s everything you need to know about the Sagittarius season in general, and especially in 2023.
When Does Sagittarius Season Begin?
Sagittarius season lasts approximately from November 21-22 to December 21-22 each year. Sagittarius season runs from November 22 to December 21 this year (at least in US time zones). In other words, Sagittarius season begins on November 22 and ends on December 21.
The Sagittarius Season’s Overall Mood and Vibe
Look no further than the sign’s ruler for an idea of how Sagittarius functions in astrology and influences the vibe of mid-November to mid-December: Jupiter, the planet of abundance, growth, expansion, fortune, and luck, magnifies everything it comes into contact with. In turn, Sagittarius is one of the most optimistic and upbeat signs, but it is also prone to extremes. When it comes to the aspects of life that Sagittarians crave the most — fun, higher learning, and long-distance travel — the more, the merrier.
Sagittarians are highly opinionated and wired to share their beliefs, so they tend to express themselves more — often without any kind of filter. That’s because anyone with a Sagittarius placement (meaning their sun is in Sagittarius or one of their big three or big six is in the sign) prioritizes the truth above all else.
It’s also worth noting that, as a mutable fire sign, Sagittarius is adaptable and passionate about constant evolution — especially cerebrally and spiritually. Sagittarians crave exploration because they are associated with the ninth house of adventure and higher learning.
That being said, as the sun moves through Sagittarius, we’re all a little more restless than usual and may be drawn to channel our inner traveler and student. Whether you try a new workout class, go to a holiday event and meet new people, or are compelled to work closely with a mentor to hone your skill set, broadening your mind is essential during this exciting season.
Sagittarius Season: What to Expect in 2023
Although the sun moves through Sagittarius once a year, the moon and other planets follow their own paths through the sky, creating a unique astrological picture of Sagittarius season that varies from year to year.
We’ll be in a bit of a lull between the previous month’s eclipse season and the upcoming month’s Mercury retrograde from Capricorn back into Sagittarius as Sagittarius season begins. As a result, it can feel like an extremely social and productive time — cue all the Thanksgiving and Friendsgiving gatherings.
Mars, the planet of action, energy, and sex, will enter Sagittarius on Black Friday, setting the stage for a fiery, adventurous atmosphere until January 4. Explore uncharted territory in whatever area of your life is activated during Sagittarius season (more on that later).
The full moon in Gemini on November 27th may feel frenetic and have you swimming in an overload of information that’s difficult to make sense of, so making time to get (at least slightly) out of your head and into your heart may be beneficial. And the December 12 new moon in Sagittarius coincides with the start of Mercury’s fourth and final retrograde of the year, which encourages slowing down and self-reflection until January 1.
This Sagittarius season, here’s what each sign can expect. Feel free to read the following based on your astrological sign and/or rising sign as well.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Though Scorpio season emphasizes your intimate bonds and encourages you to take a step back from the world to connect more deeply with loved ones, Sagittarius season is a completely different vibe. Because the sun is in your ninth house of adventure, you can’t help but be focused on your desire to break free from your usual mundane routine. You’re filled with wanderlust and a desire to meet people outside of your usual social circle, perhaps even learn a new skill. This is the time to figure out how to best take a leap of faith, knowing full well that the net will appear.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Scorpio season emphasizes your one-on-one relationships, but Sagittarius season amps it up because the sun is now in your eighth house of emotional bonds and intimacy. You’ll be more likely to share your heart with loved ones and share what you need to feel most comfortable and secure within your closest bonds. You may also experience an increase in confidence when it comes to putting your nose to the grindstone to achieve results related to joint financial endeavors, and FYI, you’ll be more confident in the bedroom as well.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Your one-on-one relationships are the highlight of this season, as the sun moves through your seventh house of partnership. Whether you’re working on a business proposal with a coworker or setting new shared goals with your significant other, you’ll have the wind in your sails to put in solid work as a team. Simultaneously, you should reflect on your sense of self, particularly as it relates to your relationships and reciprocity within your bonds. If someone isn’t showing up for you in the same way you’re showing up for them — or vice versa — it’s time to reconsider how much time and energy you’re willing to invest in the relationship.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
During Sagittarius season, the confident sun congregates in your sixth house of routine and wellness, enhancing your ability to move the ball forward on day-to-day tasks and methods for maintaining your inner balance. Now is the time to sign up for a new workout class, try out that meditation app you’ve been thinking about, or reorganize your home office. Remember that the Sagittarius season brings a lot of energy, which may fuel your natural desire to do more, more, more to help others. However, simply reconsidering how many projects you can realistically juggle at once without being stretched beyond your limits may benefit your well-being right now.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
The confident sun, your ruler, moves through your fifth house of romance and self-expression during Sagittarius season, encouraging you to share what’s in your heart — creatively and with others. You could also be more playful, spontaneous, flirtatious, and willing to put your ambitious goals on hold in order to prioritize pleasure. To be fair, given the holiday season, this is one of the most festive, joyous times of the year for everyone — but it’s especially fun and a prime time for you!
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
You generally move quickly through the world, juggling multiple tasks at once and working hard to be of service to others. However, because the sun is in your fourth house of home life during Sagittarius season, you may be inspired to relax more than usual. You’ll find it easier to set boundaries that allow you to be more fully present while spending time with family and doing cozy homebody activities like journaling, practicing mindfulness or yoga, or catching up with a dear friend via FaceTime. This is also a time when you may find yourself able to hit the ground running with healing self-work.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
The sun’s transit of Sagittarius activates your third house of communication, amplifying your social obligations and desire to spend more time with friends, colleagues, neighbors, and siblings, if you have them. Yes, you’re a social butterfly, but this season amplifies that trait significantly. Your full calendar gives you a lot of fulfillment and joy. Just remember to schedule in some downtime to rest and recover your energy. That way, you’ll be ready to resume planning, hosting, and connecting with everyone in your circle.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
The sun’s transit through your sign during Scorpio season has put you in the spotlight and fueled a surge of confidence in your ability to complete your passion projects. However, as it moves through Sagittarius, it activates your second house of income, allowing you to take everything you’ve been thinking about over the last month to the next level — particularly in terms of increasing your cash flow. You’ll also become more aware of your values and realize how critical it is to limit your commitments to those that align with your heart. After all, that’s the quickest way to achieve winning results.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Sagittarius, welcome to your season! During Scorpio season, you probably felt like you were backstage, waiting to walk out in front of a crowd and under the hot lights. You can finally bask in the spotlight now that the sun has passed through your first house of self. You’ll be particularly aware of your personal brand, whether it’s how you present yourself on social media or at work, and you’ll be able to make significant strides in reimagining the best new way to make an impression on others. The first step, of course, is to commit to any self-work that will help you stand taller in your sense of self.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
During Sagittarius season, the confident sun moves through your twelfth house of spirituality, and you may discover that slowing your normally incredibly driven and ambitious pace benefits your overall energy. This is a good time to prioritize self-care, daydream, write in a dream journal, or experiment with your favorite visualization or manifestation technique to plant the seeds for your next big intention. Though it may feel sleepy at times, know that there is a lot of work going on behind the scenes — in other words, mentally and emotionally — that will allow you to step more fully into your future once the sun enters your sign.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
While the confident sun transits your eleventh house of networking, Aquarius, you’ll be more inclined to participate in group projects. (It’s true!) Despite your enthusiasm for community-based activities, you will have a strong desire to feel especially connected to friends and colleagues. Collaboration is certain to be effective. Furthermore, if you’ve been wanting to make a long-term wish come true, now is a good time to discuss a game plan with your social circle. Feeling supported is a powerful fuel for progress in and of itself.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
During Sagittarius season, the confident sun will transit your tenth house of career, motivating you to take on a leadership role or assert your long-term goals to a higher-up. This is a time to be seen, recognized, and praised for everything you bring to the table, Pisces, so own all of your efforts. You may also be motivated to find more balance in your inner life right now. Streamlining your commitments can give you more breathing room at home and at work.
