The Fiery Times Sagittarius Full Moon burns brilliantly in the sky, reaching its peak on May 31, 2026 at 1:44 am Pacific Time. Opposite “Just One More Question” Gemini Sun, it activates the Air/Fire elemental axis of these two highly stimulating, never boring signs.
Things To Know
As the second full moon in May 2026, it’s called a Blue Moon (but think of that as blue fire)!
It’s in “If You Can’t Take The Heat” Sagittarius, so it pulls no punches, is pointed and direct.
The Moon is Out of Bounds (veers significantly South of the ecliptic) – amplifying the moody nature of the “Inner You” Moon archetype.
It’s a Micro-Moon – swinging at one of its furthest points away from the Earth. This aspect drives your sharpened focus inward to seek meaningful answers and revealing personal insights.
Powerful Goddess Energy
We already consider the Moon to be a yin presence, now standing opposite of the Sun as a yang force.
Watch the feminine rise as she draws upon the power of the Goddesses in these beneficial connections:
Trine (balances energy) “Clever Strategist Pallas” Athena
Sextile (activation energy) “I Demand R.E.S.P.E.C.T.” Juno
Sextile “Power Of Devotion” Vesta

What To Expect
Seven heavenly bodies (including the Goddess asteroids/dwarf planets) are in the Fire Element, six are in Air. That’s alchemy in action, generating change quickly. The Sagittarius/Gemini axis is also Yang energy which supports transformation through outward action.
So, Expect Big Things – you might focus on making some changes, reorienting your beliefs, literally setting fire to your ships so you have no choice but to move forward.
Worst case scenarios and/or grandiose ideas burn like wild fire through you. Take counsel with the wise ones, perhaps some more feminine sages or trusted grandmothers, in your world so you get a chance to ponder consequences before plunging ahead.
Letting Go
Harvest what you’ve grown, expanded and learned, and pare away that old stuff. This is a great Full Moon for burning something symbolic of the “you” you are leaving behind. Or the “them.” You get the idea!
A Blue Moon is a rare event. Make this one to Roar about!
