Star Reading for the Sagittarius New Moon (December 20, 2025)
This may be sudden, but have you ever read the book "Full Moon Coffee Shop's Star Reading" (Mai Mochizuki, Bunshun Bunko)?
This is a very popular book that weaves the mechanisms of Western astrology, which I cover on my blog, into a story to explain them in an easy-to-understand way.
I recently read the latest volume, and it was so interesting!!
It even has some surprising developments as a story.
And after finishing it, you can understand the important points of astrology.
Furthermore, the illustrations by Chihiro Sakurada are just so cute.
I highly recommend it.
Concentration of planets in mutable signs -> Don't panic if things don't go as planned
Now, back to the main topic.
As for the horoscope for this Sagittarius New Moon.

First, let's focus on the fact that many planets are concentrated in mutable signs.
Mutable signs are characterized by their resilience to change.
The time has finally come for everyone toacknowledge "change," accept "change," and be required to respond flexibly to "change."has arrived.
For example...
The price of rice isn't going down at all. So, how should we respond?
You can only use your My Number card at the hospital. So, what do you do?
The future is scary because it feels like AI is going to take our jobs. Then, what kind of job
should I choose?
And so on.
The changes required differ at the individual level, as well as at the company, regional, and national levels.
But we can't really imagine a stable future like we had in the Showa or Heisei eras, can we?
With this planetary alignment, we are made to realize thatno one can resist change anymore.And I think it has become necessary for each of us to find ways to adapt in order to survive.
Concentration of planets in the 10th house and Sagittarius -> A premonition that many people will be busy through the year-end and New Year holidays
This year's year-end and New Year holidays will see a concentration of planets that easily affect individual lives (Sun/Moon/Venus/Mercury in Sagittarius).
Since Sagittarius is a sign with light footwork, we may see an increase in people traveling long distances or returning to their hometowns, which was difficult to do during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since many of these planets are gathered in the 10th house, which represents social status, it feels more like working through the year-end and New Year holidays rather than a relaxed New Year mood.
Previously, Prime Minister Takaichi declared, "I will work, work, work, work, and work."
It feels like that atmosphere is spreading throughout Japan...
The influence of a national leader's remarks is truly immense.
I have a feeling the citizens will be working just as hard.
It seems like more people will be working side jobs through services like Timee.
However, if you push yourself too hard, you might put a strain on your lower body.
Take care of your legs, lower back, and knees...
The conjunction of Saturn and Neptune and the pressure on personal planets is intense
Another key to this "working" mood is the influence of Saturn.
This time, the Sun/Moon and Mercury in the 10th house are forming a 90-degree angle with Saturn in the 1st house.
Since Saturn represents the limits of modern society, boundaries, and the existing order, it does not allow the Sagittarius Sun or Moon to stretch themselves and say, "I want to burst out toward my ideals."
"No, no, you have things to do right in front of you, don't you?"
"Don't just think about dream-like things, don't be optimistic, look at where you're standing!"
You may receive a message of a certain nature.
In that sense, this might be a period where you feel a bit of a sense of stagnation, like 'how to live in this Japanese society.'
Since there are many fire and water elements, there may also be events that 'dampen the mood' of the fun year-end atmosphere.
So-called minor feelings of unease may emerge.
The reason for this is as follows.
Actually, even the usually carefree Sagittarius Sun and Moon are saying 'look at reality' this time.
This is because Sagittarius at 28 degrees (Sabian 29 degrees) is almost in the realm of Capricorn, so you must start moving toward reality.
Dig deep into the cause of the unease.
After all,thinking about concrete goals and plans for next yearseems to be a hint for getting through this period successfully.
Conclusion: Make realistic preparations for the coming Neptune return to Aries
I have said 'reality' many times this time, but then, what is reality?
I feel this is 'the gap between what you want to do and what you must do.'
There is a good reason why the universe says,look at reality, keep your feet on the ground and take action.
That is related to the fact that Neptune will enter Aries on January 27, 2026, returning to a new cycle for the first time in 165 years.
Moreover, this Neptune will perfectly overlap with Saturn, which represents the frameworks and order of the past, on February 21.
In other words,the 'taken-for-granted' things of the past will be 'melted' by Neptune.
In order to get along well with this 'new reality' and the 'reality of a future where you don't know what will happen,'I want you to firmly confirm your own axis during this year-end and New Year period.
No, I am not saying anything scary.
I just want you toimagine what excites you and think concretely about what actions you should take to make it a realitytry it.
I myself am going back and forth between 'Saturn-like' realistic thinking and 'Neptune-like' dreams.
I am spending my days feeling uneasy.
Prayer Flowers for the Sagittarius New Moon
This time, I created a free-style arrangement centered on 'ornamental kale'.
The English names for ornamental kale areFlowering kale,Ornamental kale,Ornamental cabbage and so on.
It arrived in Japan from Europe during the Edo period and was called 'Orandana' (Dutch greens) at the time.
Now, it has become a standard flower for winter container gardens and the New Year. It lasts a long time, so it is also cost-effective.
Now, as the English name includes 'Cabbage,' if you think of ornamental kale as a member of the cabbage family, cabbage is a plant that corresponds to the Moon.
The Moon is the celestial body that represents the depths of an individual's heart.
During this New Moon period, it is also good to ask yourself, 'How do I want to be next year?'
Also, the ruling planet (called the ruler) of 'Sagittarius' in the Sagittarius New Moon is Jupiter.
In this horoscope, this Jupiter is staying in 'Cancer.'
The ruler of this Cancer is the Moon.
It is a bit complicated, but in short,for us to expand significantly,
the next two weeks will be about facing the hazy feelings of your own moon (in other words, your true feelings),
which will also lead to good fortune next year (I know I said it definitively).

This is the final blog post of the year.
I couldn't really find the time to write it with much ease...
I will try harder to be more organized next year.
Everyone, have a wonderful New Year!!
Thank you for reading my blog throughout the year!!
