Sagittarius Personality

Your Sagittarius soul bursts into life with enough passion and optimism to win any battle. You were born under a zodiac sign that goes all-in. You fully commit to the journey you are on and the obstacles encountered along the way. There is a side of you that enjoys the risk in taking a gamble just to see what will happen, the adventure, and the unknown possibilities of what could be. 

In the face of adversity, you are fearless and daring. This makes you excellent at standing up for ideas and ideals you deeply care about. You have the spirit of a fighter and activist, often clashing with leadership and other institutions of authority and control. You want your life to be infused with meaning and purpose — you always seem to be working for a cause. 

You are a sign that has a lot of vitality, which means you often enjoy moving around, exploring, athletics, and possibly traveling. There is a side of you that is curious to know and understand the bigger picture and how the events of life are tied together. You are not afraid to speak your mind or share what you believe in. 

Discovering the truth is where you tend to aim for your highest potential. Like your symbol, the centaur, a mythical creature that is half human and half horse, you are committed to living a life that feels wild and free, while at the same time rational and rooted in your personal values and philosophical idealism. 

Sagittarius in Love

Your sign in love is spectacularly fun and exciting. You know how to have a good time, often being the life of the party, this attracts many people to you and invites new lovers into your life regularly. You like to feel comfortable with someone before getting too close and often date within your circle of friends, already knowing people and how everyone is connected before entering into a more permanent relationship situation. 

Having a partner that can go on adventures with you is essential to your relationship happiness. You prefer to be with someone who has a lot of energy and desire to go out to eat, try new things, or plan events with you. In addition, because your identity is often deeply linked with your political or philosophical ideals, you find more fulfillment in relationships where your partner aligns with you in these ways. 

People born under your sign tend to get restless relatively easily and desire relationships that allow for autonomy and flexibility. You manage open relationships and non-traditional relationship structures very well as you tend to see things from a bigger-picture perspective — able to rationalize and assess things from a more distant point of view. 

This often means, bringing things into the personal realm may take more energy from you. And having conversations that draw out your vulnerability, sexuality, and emotions can be very exciting moments of learning and deepening connection with someone you have caught feelings for. 

Overall in love, you tend towards expressing the fiery spirit of your signs’ element. You tend to power into a relationship at first and then open up to your softer or more affectionate, romantic, and loyal sides after some time. 

Sagittarius Career + Money

Possible Careers: Publisher, professor, writer, editor, teacher, professional activist, community organizer, academic, scholar, religious leader, lawyer, philosopher, political dissident or disruptor, travel writer, journalist, professional athlete

Ruled by Jupiter, the billowing planet of growth and expansion gives Sagittarius the underlying energy of flamboyance and showmanship. This attracts you to professions where you can stand out, make speeches, and be known for your mind and idealistic worldviews. You do well in jobs where you can talk and lecture, such as being a professor or teacher. You also excel and debate and arguing, which makes being an attorney or similar professional ideal for you. 

At the heart of who you are, is a disruptor, someone who wants to challenge authority and bring a sense of egalitarianism or other forms of social equality into the broader communities you are a part of. Becoming a scholar or academic often feeds your desire to learn and understand things within the context of the whole. Your sign is associated with travel and consciousness expansion — you are often drawn towards careers that allow you to explore these things intellectually, physically, and spiritually. 

You make for an excellent writer, editor, or publisher — as information distribution is often important to your zodiac sign. You are an intellectual, but also a passionate advocate. Careers that give you the space to explore the meaning of life, while also making life better for yourself and everyone else are often the routes you choose to travel down. Taking on leadership or community organizing roles gives you a chance to express these deep desires within you.

There are many ways you can direct your energy, but whatever you decide, it must be in alignment with your personal life perspectives and adhere to your inner drive for creating a world that you envision yourself or future generations being able to thrive within. 

Sagittarius Psyche + Life Path

There is a spiritual bent to your life path dear Sagittarius, even if you excel at espousing the ideas of the rational and secular mind. You have layers to your psyche that are deeply in touch with non-ordinary reality or visionary states of being. 

Many mystics speak of the fire that fills them when they are in touch with divine ecstasy. You are a fire sign and ruled by the planet Jupiter, which is symbolic of belief and consciousness. These are themes that you may engage and disengage with at different points in your life. 

Your search for absolute truth allows your life path to have intense meaning and purpose. You pick things up and have the very real struggle of putting them down when you discover they are no longer true. Letting go of things that have passed and allowed new things to enter into the realm of your experience is a part of your journey. 

You are here to expand your own and other’s views of life, reality, and meaning. Assisting society in broadening perspectives, traveling, and seeing life’s potential from both the physical and spiritual layers of existence.
