Decanic Rulership: The Moon

As the ruler of this decan, the Moon, the most sensitive and receptive among the traditional planets, represents both vulnerability and protection. It symbolizes what is already established, the sense of home, whether that home is internal or external. This phase emphasizes standing firm against opposition, preparing for action, and holding steady to what has been accomplished and who one has become. This decan is about how encountering opposition generates the friction needed to strengthen one’s will; these adversarial forces produce the heat that is essential for fusing mind and body. The Moon in the second decan of Sagittarius brings a unique ability to center one’s life around a single, meaningful purpose and show remarkable resilience when their chosen path is challenged. People with this placement have a natural gift for pouring themselves fully into one pursuit, drawing together their resources, emotions, and will to move steadily toward their goal. This inner coherence while experiencing opposition gives them a sense of purpose that fuels their direction in life. This decan signifies the inner strength to safeguard one’s achievements, remaining steadfast in one’s purpose, and aligning body and mind with intention through obstacles.
