Sagittarius – The ninth astrological sign of the zodiac
Sagittarius the archer, is the ninth sign of the zodiac. If your birthday falls between November 23 – December 21, then your astrological sign is Sagittarius.
Like most of the other astrological signs, Sagittarius is no longer aligned with the constellation from which it got it’s name due to the precession of the equinoxes.
Sagittarius is a masculine / extroverted positive sign. Because of this, those people that fall under this sign tend to be more extroverted and do well in most social situations. It’s also a mutable fire sign that’s ruled by the planet Jupiter, one of the more influential and powerful mythological gods, and is associated with good fortune.
In most accounts of mythology, Sagittarius is often shown as a centaur – half human, half horse. The greeks thought that centaurs were brave and adventurous creatures that were very wise, but had a proclivity for fighting and general unruly behavior. These traits are sometimes attributed to Sagittarians too. The symbol for Sagittarius is the bow and arrow; the weapon that the centaur is often shown wielding.
People that are born under the Sagittarius sign tend to be very talkative and witty individuals. They’re typically the intelligent and intellectual types that have a confident and positive outlook on life. They’re honest and sincere, sometimes to a fault. Quite often they’re spiritual or religious, and let their morals influence their decisions. Sagittarians are adventurous. They’re not afraid to take risks. Although the drawback to this is that they can be careless and impulsive. Generally, they’re well liked and they can be very generous individuals.
There are many great and diverse career choices for Sagittarians. Most anything that requires intellectual discipline is a good fit. Scientists, researchers, teachers, and lawyers for instance. Because of their adventurous nature, travel and military / law enforcement careers also seem to be a good choice.
Some famous Sagittarians include Abbie Hoffman, Bette Midler, Bruce Lee, Frank Sinatra, Frank Zappa, Jimi Hendrix, Walt Disney, and Winston Churchill. Tags: astrology, bow and arrow, centaur, extroverted, fire sign, jupiter, masculine sign, positive sign, sagittarius, zodiac
