First Quarter Moon in Sagittarius

Whatever is going on in your life, you need to take care of the small stuff and the big stuff will fall into place. Problems can arise now because of carelessness or a judgement lapse. Avoid telling everyone your opinion until you're sure you know exactly what's going on. Think about the baby steps you need to take on your way to your goal, and don't take too many risks. Believe in your own good luck but don't be arrogant about it. Think an important decision through very carefully before taking action.

Your challenge when this card comes up is to dream but be prepared to put in the hard work required to make your dreams real.

Make peace between the part of you that needs everything to make sense and the part that wants to throw caution to the wind.

The Crown chakra (Sahasrara) sits at the top of your head. It's known as the thousand-petal lotus chakra, which, as it opens, reveals the mysteries of the Universe and your connection to all life everywhere. Tuning in to its beautiful violet colour can help you to find direction and see the bigger picture.

Visualize yourself in a column of pure violet light and hold this card to your crown as you call in the energies: 'Energies of the First Quarter Moon in Sagittarius, thank you for showing me that life is an adventure!'

The best time to work your magic is when the Moon is in Sagittarius, on a Thursday (Jupiter's day) or during Jupiter's hour.

The First Quarter Moon in Sagittarius takes place when the Sun is in Virgo and the Moon is in Sagittarius. It knows that visions and practicality can go together.
