Full Moons are a time for releasing and relinquishing. If you have an excess in your life, this is the time for it to go down the drain. Through silent meditation, exchanging of thoughts, or spiritual practice, Full Moons are a point when we can let go.
June’s Full Moon in Sagittarius is an astrological hint to reminisce about how much you’ve grown. Following Western astrology, these new and complete Moon guides are monthly reminders to set and review your intentions. Your horoscope is a rudimentary prompt for self-reflection.
If you stop at “it is what it is,” are you living in truth? Especially when you haven’t named what “it” is? The beautiful thing about our bodies, skin, muscles, bones, and brain is that they tell a story. You reflect your narrative even when you’ve neglected to recognize how a bruise, bump, scratch, chip, or ache appears on your body. Be careful about romanticizing hurt. On June 3, 2023, at 11:40 PM EST, the Full Moon in Sagittarius sheds light on emotional truth. Be cautious of over-intellectualization, laughing away your pain, and distancing yourself from your emotions. Acknowledging what you sense and accepting what’s beyond your scope of awareness is the first step to being present in your body. How does what you see, touch, taste, smell, and hear inform your emotions? What memories are brought up by the scent of a former lover or seeing a text from an ex-friend?

Your horoscope for the Full Moon in Sagittarius:
ARIES
Aries, you’re only as wise as your willingness to be wrong. This Full Moon is illuminating the sector of your life pertaining to higher knowledge: the lessons you picked up post-high school, the flop era in your twenties, and the reflections admired during your thirties. In order for you to fully appreciate your growth, you must be able to demonstrate awareness of what you got wrong.
TAURUS
Taurus, what do you do when you’re facing a dead end? Breakups are sometimes the natural course of events. When developing friendships, partnerships, and romantic relationships, you can always benefit from knowing the people around you vibe with your special person’s energy. When you sense your relationships primarily live on an island just for two, that may be a red flag. How can a relationship live in isolation?
GEMINI
Gemini, love requires the want and possibly need to have more of the subject of your affection. Think about how a person motivates you. What parts of your inner child do they bring out? Do they make you feel as alive as your younger self would feel while kicking up at the sky? Or do they dwindle your glow through mean words and ill intentions? Do you want to revisit feelings, or would you like to create new sensations?
CANCER
Cancer, what memories are you creating based on the life you lead? I lack the ability to create a mental image of your quality of life. Whether you’re living life to the fullest or upset by the system of capitalism, you deserve to have moments of joy. Some of you may be overdoing yourselves, basing too much of your self-satisfaction on egotistical indulgences. Try embracing simple things.
LEO
Leo, you are motivated by fun. What do you enjoy? You need to feel alive in order to take action. If there is no fun in your work you will lose interest, and thus the quality of your efforts will decrease. Find the thing that brings fire to your heart and encourages you to create. What breathes life into you?
VIRGO
Virgo, a craving for novelty is worth satisfying within reason. If you’ve felt as though you need a certain something no, solve for x. No, that doesn’t mean text your ex—please stop listening to witches on TikTok who tell you your ex is fantasizing about you! Instead, treat yourself with something that’ll liven up your space—you deserve a little boost!
LIBRA
Libra, your inner wisdom is informed by your inner child. At least during this full moon there’s a lot of wisdom you can gain from reflecting back on our childhood. What values did you hold and how did you interact with those around you? Once you’re clear on what you care about direct your will towards manifesting your goals. You will always find purpose when you develop your self esteem.
SCORPIO
Scorpio, what do you prove to yourself when you splurge on an item? You get more out of that manicure if you’re mindful of what you wish to communicate. Are you portraying seduction, romance, joy, or neutrality for the next two weeks? Versatility is a gift, so be careful about pigeonholing yourself. Aslong as you trust the process, all endings lead to new beginnings.
SAGITTARIUS
Sagittarius, maybe it’s about you and not that relationship. When you get out of your comfort zone and travel, it’ll become easier to understand what’s going on. Whether you’re going to the next town over or on an overseas adventure, you can take time to spot the differences between your normal and someone else’s common sense. Don’t worry too much about being judgmental; let the dominos fall and respond with prudence.
CAPRICORN
Capricorn, there’s a lot to gain from stillness. There’s no need to get lost in loads of work or preoccupy yourself with hobbies. Allow time for stillness, silence, and admiration. As projects from to an end and conclusions approach, this Full Moon is a great time to pause and take stock. When you allow space, the answers you’re looking for have the opportunity to be discovered.
AQUARIUS
Aquarius, bridging connections requires listening and responding, as opposed to waiting to talk. You’ll attract many more relationships by showing a willingness to listen to the ideas of others. Allow them to brag about their experiences and appreciate their memories. You’ll be pleasantly surprised when you learn how many intersecting interests it takes to inspire a meaningful collaboration.
PISCES
Pisces, you have worked tirelessly for all the acclaim you receive. It goes without saying, your existence is invaluable. How you choose to fill in moments of stillness with activities, crafts, and spontaneity is entirely up to you. Make sure you make time to be seen and appreciated. All the work you do behind the scenes deserves recognition.
