The Moon is New in Sagittarius on December 4, 2021, at 2:44 AM EST. This is a Total Solar Eclipse.

A total Solar Eclipse New Moon occurs in the sign of Sagittarius. It’s the final eclipse to fall along the Gemini-Sagittarius axis since the first in June 2020.

Eclipses have the power to set up themes for the coming six months. In the Jupiter-ruled sign of Sagittarius, matters related to faith, optimism, belief systems, philosophy, sharing ideas, and our sense of adventure become a strong focus on a personal level. This eclipse is about new beginnings regarding all of these matters.

Even so, because it’s the final set in a series along a particular sign axis, there is some finality to its themes–we might make final decisions or more permanent changes now.

This phase of the Moon occurs at 12 degrees and 22 minutes of Sagittarius.
