Ready For Sagittarius Season? Here Are 3 Things To Watch Out For

As hard as it is to believe, 2024 is winding down and Sagittarius season is almost here. The holiday season is upon us, and we can all tap in to big-Archer energy as we look toward 2025.

From November 21 until December 21, the sun is moving through trailblazing and globe-trotting Sagittarius. And as a sign all about spontaneity, adventure, and pushing boundaries, we're all encouraged to lean into the courageous and free-spirited Sag within.

As the AstroTwins recently wrote for mindbodygreen, Sagittarius isn't afraid to move outside its core crew and engage with others outside their familiar zone.

If you were hoping for a smooth and drama-free holiday season, we've got some news for you. There are already a few planets currently retrograde, and we'll be stacking on a few more in the weeks to come.

The most infamous of them all—Mercury retrograde—begins November 25 and lasts until December 15 in the sign of Sagittarius. As the twins note, your best course of action during this time is to stop, think, review, and reevaluate. Sagittarius also rules travel, so if you're making any holiday travel plans, make sure you double-check all your bookings.

But the retrogrades don't stop there! Jupiter has been retrograde since October 8 and will be until February 5, and Uranus has been retrograde since September 1 and will be until January 25 of next year.

Then, from December 6 to February 23, Mars goes retrograde in Cancer, causing some disruptions to our energy and motivation.

On December 15, we'll have one last full moon to round out 2024, and it'll be in Sagittarius' opposite sign, Gemini. The fun and flirty twins of the zodiac are known for their insatiable curiosity and sociable spirits, so this is the perfect energy to lean into with all those holiday parties.

Of course, keep in mind that Mercury retrograde will be a factor, so just remember to watch what you say and avoid putting your foot in your mouth. (Gemini can be known to do that!)

If all these retrogrades are any indication of the Sag season we're in for, it might be a bit of a bumpy ride. But retrogrades also offer an opportunity for reflection and slowing down, which might be just what we need as the holidays get underway.
