On a lunar day with the waning Moon in Sagittarius, the sense of justice and intuition become sharper. There's a desire to share experience — we more clearly recognize our value and responsibility, and a heightened sense of duty emerges. A clear understanding of where we're headed and what we strive for comes into focus, and most importantly — the energy and will to act appear. It's the state of an arrow drawn on its string: we tidy up lingering unfinished business, choose a strategy and prepare for launch. It's an excellent time to discuss long-term plans and dreams with friends and family, outline steps, and tune into realization.
