About Your Sign...
Sagittarians have a positive outlook on life, are full of enterprise, energy,
versatility, adventurousness and eagerness to extend experience beyond the physically
familiar. They enjoy travelling and exploration, the more so because their minds are
constantly open to new dimensions of thought. They are basically ambitious and optimistic,
and continue to be so even when their hopes are dashed. Their strongly idealistic natures
can also suffer many disappointments without being affected. They are honorable, honest,
trustworthy, truthful, generous and sincere, with a passion for justice. They are usually
on the side of the underdog in society they will fight for any cause they believe to be
just, and are prepared to be rebellious. They balance loyalty with independence.
Sagittarians are usually modest and are often religious, with a strong sense of morality,
though they tend to overemphasize the ethical codes they follow and worship beliefs about
God rather than God Himself. This means that, negatively, they regard rigid, unloving,
intolerant adherence to ritual and conventional codes as more important than the truths
they symbolize or embody. They sometimes pay lip service to religions and political
parties in which they have ceased to believe because the outward forms satisfy them, yet
they may not hesitate to switch allegiance in politics or change their system of belief if
they see personal advantage to themselves in doing so.
They have both profound and widely ranging minds, equipped with foresight and good
judgement, and they can be witty conversationalists. They love to initiate new projects
(they make excellent researchers) and have an urge to understand conceptions that are new
to them. they think rapidly, are intuitive and often original, but are better at adapting
than inventing and are at their best when working with colleagues of other types of
character that compliment their own. They are strong-willed and good at organizing, a
combination that gives them the ability to bring any project they undertake to a
successful conclusion. Their
generosity can be balanced by their extreme care at handling their resources.
Sagittarians are ardent, sincere and straightforward in love, normally conventional and in
control of their sexual natures. Yet if thwarted, they may easily allow their failure to
embitter their whole lives or they may revenge themselves upon the opposite sex by
becoming cynically promiscuous. They are more apt then the average to make an uncongenial
alliance. If their marriages are successful, they will be faithful spouses and indulgent
parents; but their innate restlessness will inspire them to use even the most satisfying
ménage as a base from which to set out on their travels. They need to fell free and are
often faced with the choice of allowing their careers to take over their lives at the
expense of the love of their spouse and family. Sagittarian women are the counterparts of
their men; even if they have no career to rival their love, they find it difficult to
express affection and may run the risk of being thought frigid.
In other personal relationships they are reliable, seldom betraying any trust given to
them. They can, however, be impulsively angry and both male and female Sagittarians know
how to be outspoken and exactly what expressions will hurt their adversaries most. On the
other hand they are magnanimous in forgiving offenses and are responsible when looking
after the elderly in the family.
Their gifts fit Sagittarians for a number of widely differing professions. They are
natural teachers and philosophers with a talent for expounding the moral principles and
laws which seem to explain the universe. This gift enables them to be successful churchmen
on the one hand and scientists on the other. The law and politics also suit them, as does
public service, social administration, public relations and advertising. Travel and
exploration naturally appeal to such restless souls and, if their opportunities are
limited, they may find something of travel and change of scene in the armed forces or
through working as a travelling salesman. Others may make fine musicians and, in the days
before automobiles, they were said to be successful at horse trading and all activities,
including sporting ones, concerning horses. This has been translated in modern terms into
an interest in cars and aircraft - and
again with emphasis on the sporting side racing, rallying etc. They are said to make good
sports coaches, but their tastes in this direction may lead them into imprudent gambling,
though the gambling instinct may be sublimated by carrying it out professionally as a
bookmaker.
The vices to which Sagittarians are prone are anger they tend to flare up over trifles;
impatience - they want to rush every new project through immediately and demand too much
of colleagues who cannot work at the pace they require; and scorn of the inadequacies of
others while expecting fulsome recognition of their own efforts. They may in one sense
deserve recognition, because in completing a major project they will sacrifice their
health and family relationships; in their family's eyes they may merit condemnation.
They can be exacting, domineering and inconsiderate in the work place; and boastful,
vulgar and extravagant in their private lives. Their restlessness, if excessive, can
jeopardize more than their own stability. some Sagittarians risk becoming playboys,
wasting their lives away in frivolous pursuits. Others can develop a moralizing, religious
fanaticism or else turn into hypocrites, their inner prudishness disguised by an outward
appearance of joviality. Another side of the religiosity which is a danger in Sagittarians
is superstition.
Possible Health Concerns...
Sagittarius governs the hips, thighs
and sacral area; subjects suffer from ailments of the hips and thighs and are liable to
sciatica
and rheumatism. An alleged deficiency of silicon in their physiques can give them poor
skin, nails and hair. As they are often sportsmen indulging in dangerous pursuits, they
are prone to accidents which arise from these. The ancient astrologers mention falls from
horses and hurts from them and other four-footed beasts. The taking of risks in other
sports is a danger to the modern Sagittarian, and he is also liable to accidents with fire
and heat.
