Sagittarius is the ninth Sign of the Zodiac. After Libra's first
reaching out to others and Scorpio's exploration of the world
through emotion, Sagittarius uses knowledge to understand the
world. It is the Sign of Philosophy and Religion, and people
born under this Sign are the scholars and learners of the
Zodiac. They seek the truth and the meaning of life, and they
love to explore through knowledge. Higher learning is a major
focus of their lives. As the ninth Sign, it also rules the ninth
House: the House of Philosophy.

The Sign In Depth
The Astrological Symbol of Sagittarius is the Archer. The Archer
is a Centaur, half man and half horse, and it is the only Sign
of the Zodiac that is half man and half beast. Centaurs were the
great scholars and intellectuals of Greek and Roman myth, but
they could also be hotheaded and aggressive. This tradition is
maintained in Sagittarians. They are not fixed or opinionated,
and they have no set plan or bias but seek to learn things as
they come. In this way, Sagittarius exemplifies the Mutable
Quality assigned to it. They desire the freedom to do what they
want, when they want, and tend to be impulsive and independent.
Within the Zodiac, Sagittarius is opposite Gemini, the Sign of
Communication. While Gemini likes to learn a little bit about
many subjects, Sagittarius tends to be about deeper and more
focused learning. They are versatile and progressive, but at
times they can be impatient and pushy if things aren't getting
done in the way they want.
The sign is ruled by the Planet Jupiter. In ancient Roman
mythology, Jupiter (and his Greek equivalent, Zeus) was the King
of the Gods. Jupiter represents expansion in all its forms,
including the mental outreach so prominent in Sagittarians, but
it also may invite excess. It is the Planet of Luck, and many
people born under the sign do experience good luck. Jupiter
rules both Sagittarius and Pisces; The sign is the masculine, or
day, aspect of Jupiter and Pisces is the feminine, or night.
Both Signs are about thought and outreach, but while Pisces
focuses on the higher ideal of a perfect world Sagittarius is
more interested in mental exploration as teachers and
philosophers. At times they can procrastinate or seem
self-indulgent, but they are trustworthy and charming, adaptable
to all situations. While they can appear to be extravagant and
flashy, they are generally good-humored and generous.
The Element associated with this sign is Fire. Fire Signs are
physical: they tend to respond to the world through action,
rather than practicality, intellect, or emotion. While they are
about action and getting things started, they are not in a hurry
like Aries can be. They want to experience life, rather than
read about it, and they are outgoing and friendly. Sagittarians
are broad-minded and enthusiastic, but they may sometimes seem
to have foot-in-mouth disease as they may talk too much or speak
before thinking. They are eager and inspirational, experts at
getting things started, but they can also seem irresponsible or
tactless if they jump in too quickly. They are not pioneers in
the sense that Aries is, but they are explorers and interested
in mental outreach. Their innate optimism and belief in
straightforward dealings with other people can sometimes make
them careless or impulsive. Many Sagittarians enjoy travel and
spiritual study, and they have daring and adventurous spirits.
Sagittarians love to have a good time, and they are outgoing and
friendly. Many are natural comedians, sometimes exaggerating
their adventures to entertain people. Their innate confidence in
themselves may make them argumentative or blunt, but they want
to learn, not offend. They are high-spirited and enthusiastic,
often flirtatious, and tend to enjoy social life immensely.
In their leisure time, Sagittarians' athleticism comes to the
forefront. Personal challenge is always appreciated, and they
tend to prefer solitary or one-on-one sports that stretch them
to the limit, such as skydiving and big game fishing. They tend
to be lucky, and may enjoy gambling. Their philosophical side
makes them enjoy drama and debate, as well as most other
mentally challenging pursuits. In love relationships,
Sagittarius is flirtatious and playful.
Sagittarius rules the hips and thighs. People born under the
sign may be more susceptible to hip troubles and leg pain than
people of other Signs. Sagittarian's colors are the rich hues of
maroon and navy.
The great strength of the Sagittarian is in their philosophical
and exploratory nature. It is important to them that they live
life to the fullest, experiencing everything they can. Their
great love of knowledge and exploration makes them one of the
most learned characters of the Zodiac.
