Meaning
A full moon in Sagittarius ends the stretch of gathering information and asks what you actually believe. It sits opposite a Gemini Sun, so the temptation is to read one more opinion instead of committing. Travel, study and anything to do with the wider shape of your life come due here.

Questions about the May 2029 full moon
What sign is the May full moon in?
Sagittarius, because at the moment of a full moon the Moon sits opposite the Sun and takes the facing sign. It advances by roughly one sign a month, so no two consecutive full moons repeat it.
What time is the May full moon in my country?
18:40 UTC is Universal Time. Take five hours off for New York, add one or two for Madrid, add ten or eleven for Sydney. When the instant falls near midnight your local date lands a day either side of 27 May 2029.
When is the next full moon after this one?
26 June 2029, in Capricorn. Two full moons are 29 or 30 days apart, so the next one normally falls in the following calendar month; the table above lists every full moon of 2029.
What are you supposed to do on the May full moon?
Finish rather than begin: settle the debt, return what you borrowed, send the thing sitting in drafts. The disc reads full to the eye for about a day either side of 18:40 UTC on 27 May 2029, and practice allows that whole window. Starting things belongs to the new moon a fortnight later.
