The Sun is in Sagittarius from about November 22nd until December 21st each year. When the Sun enters the mutable fire sign Sagittarius, it rings in the holiday season. Yes, Sagittarius' season is that festive time of year when you spend time partying with friends and family and thinking about giving to others.

Sagittarius' Season

Even those who know nothing about astrology can feel the energy shift when the Sun moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius. Sagittarius' season is ruled by Jupiter, the jolly giant of the solar system. The Sagittarius time of year is for expanding, reaching out and expressing your optimism, sense of adventure, and faith in tomorrow, as well as your open-hearted friendliness and generosity. In short, it's that the time each year meant for ignoring your inhibitions and allowing yourself to eat, drink, and be merry.

Making the Most of Sagittarius' Season

The confident and fiery Sagittarian energy is all about accentuating the positive and enjoying the good things in life. So, to make the most of this expansive time of year, break out of your comfort zone and express yourself to the world. Questions to ask yourself during Sagittarius' Season:

  • How can I bring joy to others?
  • How can I live my life more optimistically?
  • How can I inspire a sense of hope and possibility in myself and others?
  • How can I be more playful, adventurous, and carefree?

Amp up Your Wardrobe and Home Décor

Express the joy of Sagittarius' season by dressing in or accessorizing with bright colors, mainly red and orange. Place some exotic flowers, such as amaryllis, around your home, and be sure to include a Poinsettia or two, which is said to be the flower of good cheer, merriment, and celebration. You could also add a few drops of myrrh and frankincense oil to a diffuser and distribute the oil as a fine mist into your home. Myrrh is an ancient spice connected to Sagittarius and frankincense is connected with Jupiter's abundance.

Sagittarians and Their Season

Sagittarians are in their element during their season and get an extra boost from all the merriment and festivities. Of course, each year is a bit different depending on what else is happening in the sky, but nonetheless, it's time for Sagittarians to celebrate their birthdays. It can seem to them as if the whole world is throwing a month-long party for them, and a Sagittarian is not one to pass up a party.

Solar Return

Each Year all Sagittarians have what's called a Solar Return. A solar return chart can be drawn up for the date, time, and location of when the Sun the sky returns to its exact birth degree. This chart can be interpreted much like a natal chart. A solar return chart only lasts from one birthday to the next, but it can give clues as to what the next year will bring and how an individual can deal with the ups and downs of their life during the year.

Sagittarius' Season and Other Signs

The other fire signs, Aries and Leo, and the Air signs, Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius, can be just as jolly as Sagittarius and find Sagittarius' season stimulating, fun and exciting. However, the earth signs, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, and water signs, Cancer, Pisces, and Scorpio, might not be up to the season's fast-paced social energy. Still, everyone has Sagittarius in the birth charts, and when the Sun is in Sagittarius, those areas of your life will light up.

Sagittarius' Season Is a Gateway

Like all the mutable signs, the sign of Sagittarius is a transitional sign. It's the gateway to winter in the northern hemisphere and the transition for autumn to winter. It's the gateway to summer in the southern hemisphere and the transition from spring to summer. Enjoy the merriment of Sagittarius' season because next up on the zodiac's seasonal agenda is Capricorn's season, which is much more serious.
