What the season is about
Sagittarius season starts when the Sun reaches 0 degrees Sagittarius in late November, and it runs to the December solstice, when the Sun moves on into Capricorn. It is a mutable fire sign ruled by Jupiter, and the last stretch of the calendar year sits inside it.
It is a month for widening your view. Travel, study, belief and humour come forward, and so does saying plainly what you think. After the intensity of Scorpio season it usually feels lighter, and a little restless.
Sagittarius is pictured as an archer, and the season works the same way: choose a target that is far off, then aim. The risk is promising more than fits in the weeks before the holidays, so pick the one adventure that matters and leave room for the rest.

Questions, answered
When does Sagittarius season start?
The Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22, 2026, 07:23 UTC and leaves on December 21, 2026, 20:50 UTC, about 30 days later. The page shows both moments in your own time zone.
Why do the Sagittarius dates change from year to year?
The usual Sagittarius dates are an average. The calendar year is not a whole number of days long, so the moment the Sun crosses into Sagittarius drifts by some hours each year and can land on a neighbouring date, depending on your time zone as well.
What if I was born on the first or last day of Sagittarius season?
Your Sun sign depends on the exact moment of your birth, not on the average dates. A birth chart with your birth time settles it.
What does “Reading confidence 40%” mean?
It says how specific a reading is. A line written for a Sun sign alone, with no date or birth time, carries 40%. It is not the chance that something happens.
