Dates – When are Sagittarius People Born?

Sagittarius is the star sign of anyone born between November 22 – December 21. Optimistic, freedom loving adventurers, with lots of acquaintances rather than friends. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the most fortunate and luckiest planet in our solar system. It is also the planet of adventure and even though many people born under this zodiac sign love to travel, others seek their freedom in following their passions, higher education, hobbies, the arts, whatever excites their passion.

Temperament – What are the Characteristic Sagittarius Personality Traits?

Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter and the element Fire is symbolized by the Archer. In earlier times the symbol for Sagittarius was represented as a centaur (half-man, half-animal), drawing a bow. The centaur seems to represent the Sagittarius dual personality more accurately – a person who is, on the one hand, immensely human and philosophical, yet on the other hand, is often burdened by an overwhelming love for the good things of life. Perhaps this is why the Tarot card associated with this astrological sign is Temperance, as Sagittarius would benefit from finding more balance in their life.

The first word that comes to mind when describing those born under the star sign Sagittarius if freedom! Sagittarians have an immense appetite for life, a huge desire to travel and, even though they are excellent at ‘fitting in’, they tend to live life very much on their own terms. Belonging to the Fire element, Sagittarian’s nature is passionate, impulsive, open, honest, versatile, optimistic, unconventional, loyal, independent and generous. The passionate and impulsive nature of this star sign can lead to self-indulgence and a recklessness with money. Despite their friendly personality, Sagittarians can sometimes come across as conceited and dogmatic and need to be careful not to ride roughshod over others.

Sagittarius is one of the great zodiac organizers, those born under this star sign are usually busy planning activities, ideally outdoors, for family and friends. This is great, provided others are as enthusiastic as you – otherwise, you may drive everyone crazy!

Compatibility – What Sun Signs are Most Compatible with Sagittarius?

With your innate love of life, your open manner and friendly nature, Sagittarius has no difficulty in attracting the opposite sex. In fact, you are a born flirt and are likely to be the life-and-soul of any party. You fall in love easily but, unless your partner knows you well and understands your casual attitude and your desire for freedom does not mean you don’t love them, these traits can cause problems.

Sagittarian’s restless nature and sense of adventure can make it difficult for them to settle down and it’s no surprise to hear that this zodiac sign is said to produce more bachelors (or bachelorettes!) than any other sign. The one thing Sagittarians dread is anything that sniffs of a loss of freedom and very often if they sense a relationship is getting serious, they will run in the opposite direction.

The hottest partner for Sagittarius is one of the other Fire signs – Leo, Aries or another Sagittarius. All that fire will ensure your relationship sizzles!

Work – What is the Best Career Choice for Sagittarius People?

The theme song for Sagittarius could be Queen’s “I Want To Break Free”, so the last thing someone born under this star sign needs is to be tied to a desk doing a routine job! It is thought that Sagittarians are the athletes of the zodiac – one of the most famous baseball players ever, Joe DiMaggio, who was married to Marilyn Monroe – was a Sagittarian, so any career that involves sports is a good choice.

Religion, the law, the media and education are all excellent career choices for Sagittarius sun sign. This star sign has a natural flair for languages and this, combined with their love of travel and adventure, makes working in the travel and tourism industry an obvious option. Sagittarians make excellent bosses and will never ask anyone to do anything they won’t do themselves.

Wellness – What Health Issues do Sagittarius People Have?

The areas of the body associated with Sagittarius is the hips, thighs and liver and those born under this astrological sign tend to gain weight easily. Taking regular exercise is essential, not only to prevent weight gain but also to keep the joints healthy. It is important for Sagittarius sun sign to eat a high protein diet as this helps to control their natural sweet tooth, to avoid junk food and, because the liver is the key organ associated with this zodiac sign, to avoid excessive amounts of alcohol. When exercising, try not to let your over-enthusiastic nature drive you to do more than you should as this can result in a string of minor accidents, like sprains and torn muscles. Moderation is the key to long term good health and a lean, fit body.
