Full Moon in Sagittarius :: The Call, Cloak, and Compass

June 11, 2025 at 12:42am PDT—Welcome to June, a month of crossing thresholds. June is the liminal passage of Lucy stepping through an ordinary wardrobe into Narnia, a magical world frozen in time, waiting for adventure and courage to thaw it.  We’re not just turning a page this month. We’re stepping through it.

In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the portal doesn’t just open into magic, it opens into responsibility, transformation, and destiny. Each of the four Pevensie children is an archetype in motion: the skeptic, the believer, the reluctant hero, the seer. None of them expects to be chosen, and yet there they are—shouldering quests, wielding swords, walking toward their own becoming.

A wardrobe month

June’s sky echoes this arc as the planets rearrange themselves into doorways and beckon us through into our own transformational quests. At the time of Wednesday’s Full Moon in Sag, all the planets (besides the luminaries) are either in the final farewells of old signs or in the first few degrees of new signs. These are bold, initiating shifts. What’s more: all planets—except Pluto in fixed Aquarius—are direct. No retrograde ruminations. We’re forging a new timeline, cloak billowing behind us, ready or not.

As we pass through, two bright allies reclaim their thrones: Venus entered her nocturnal domicile on Taurus on June 5th while Jupiter enters his place of exaltation in Cancer tomorrow, June 9th. As we begin to settle into this shifting season, a celebratory full moon rises, glowing like a lantern in the desert.

The Sagittarius Full Moon is our compass check. Sagittarius is the seeker, the wanderer, and the idealist. C.S. Lewis himself was a true Sagittarian explorer with a stellium of six celestial bodies in the philosopher’s sign—Sun, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Uranus, and Chiron—and a Gemini Full Moon! Under this adventuresome Moon, truth lights the way.

Yet despite the verve and optimism, there’s weight here too. This lunation falls in the third decan of Sagittarius, associated with the Ten of Wands. Like every hero’s journey, this one has been especially arduous. You’ve probably been carrying more than your share. The Full Moon illuminates what’s been too much, and invites you to set it down. We don’t have to carry it all on our own. When the Ten of Wands appears in readings, it’s often an indication that if you reach out for help, you’ll find it.

The Full Moon seeks support through a trine with Mars in Aries, offering courage, and just enough enthusiastic fire to make a next move.

Jupiter in Cancer: Aslan has returned

Jupiter, ruler of the Full Moon in Sag, will step into Cancer tomorrow where he’s exalted. In Cancer, Jupiter grows through belonging, nurturing, and through deep-feeling. Jupiter in Cancer is hearth magic. It’s the mentor who has protected you and built you through showing you your own worth. In Cancer, Jupiter reminds us that home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling of being known and nurtured, where vulnerability can become a strength. As ruler of the Full Moon, Jupiter in Cancer lends care and respite to the final stretch of the journey, when it’s time to lighten the load and look ahead.

This Full Moon matters because it shows you what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re now ready to leave behind. In true Sagittarius style, it illuminates the new story waiting, but whether you answer the call or stay where it’s safe—that’s your myth to make.
