SAGITTARIUS

Sagittarius is a sign of expansion, exaggeration, exploring the outer reaches of the human mind and the entire planet. If you have chosen to become a priest, minister, teacher, and philosopher or world traveler you are in good company.  These fellow Sagittarians are seeking something greater, through education, religion and travel to distant places. Some will find a sense of freedom in athletics as they push the limits of the human body. Running, skiing, surfing, hiking/mountain climbing; are activities that meet the Sagittarian need to move without restriction.

You are a truth seeker. This curiosity leads you into spirited discussions and also to books or any source that promises more answers. Your tendency to jump to conclusions without enough information is a trait you share with another Fire sign, Aries. Both signs like to have fun and enjoy games of all kinds. From the point of view of more moderate signs, you take unnecessary risks, including gambling with money in business ventures or just for fun. In fact, your cheerful, optimistic side causes friends to overlook one of your most unsettling traits, the tendency to open mouth, insert foot.

Examples abound. Ask anyone who has heard, ”You should wear that color more often, you don’t look so fat.” Or, “I really want you to come to the party but I hope you won’t spoil it by talking about your politics.” What you get is the unvarnished Truth, ready or not. That look of surprise on your face when friends express annoyance is real. You really don’t know why they are upset. If they try to explain why they think you lack tact, you are surprised that they are missing the point. “After all it is true,” you may reply. You have a very short fuse if your honesty or integrity is questioned.

You may have brought this about by the tendency to exaggerate in order to make a point. This ability to take an ordinary situation and create a great story is part of your charm and can be used successfully to write advertising copy or a best selling novel. Friends and potential mates must learn to understand your intense need for personal freedom, accept your blunt speech, find excitement in your continual search for what’s next, and love you for your open mind and big heart. It will take some other planetary influences to actually make you into marriage material. Restriction of any sort; contracts, marriage vows and promises are not entered into lightly. You are a wonderful companion and efficient parent once you realize that commitment doesn’t mean loss of freedom. You will love to teach your children what they need to know about life. Any relationship should leave room for you to grow and expand your views.  

Sagittarius is associated with the planet Jupiter which symbolizes the need to extend or expand. Astrologers say Jupiter “rules” Sagittarius. They mean that the qualities of Jupiter are in harmony with the characteristics of Sagittarius. So it will be necessary to know Jupiter’s sign on the day of your birthday. This valuable information tells you which of the other twelve signs flavors and modifies your Sagittarius attitude toward relationships. Of course an accurate chart for the date, exact time and place of birth provides a complete map of your unique personality.
