Sagittarius
Sun-sign
by Julia Parker
Sagittarius Sun-sign: November 23 -December 21
Challenge, and a need to feel free to express themselves in their own
individual way, are the two most important requisites for those who have this
sign emphasized in their birth-charts. They cannot function satisfactorily
without either.
Put a lively Sagittarian in a situation where he or she has work
that is repetitive, or makes no demands on them, and they will crumble. But many,
of course, have to cope with such dreary circumstances, and then it is important
that they should work out ways to divert their attention from what is basically
an unrewarding set-up. Usually Sagittarius is resilient enough to find
interesting alternatives, and it is vital that they do so, otherwise the
psychological suffering they will have to endure will be nearly intolerable.
Sagittarius is a Fire sign, and this element makes its presence felt
through a high level of enthusiasm for life and individual interests. To this it
is possible to add that Sagittarians are keen to enjoy all aspects of life in a
very positive way, and as they do so they will also inspire others to get as
much out of life and their abilities as they do themselves. But challenge must
be there; if it is not, then Sagittarians must create it by presenting ideas to
those who matter, and by showing others precisely what they are made of.
It is
important though, that in the pursuit of many varied and diverse interests, they
do not lose out on the full development of what they can do best. It is also a
good thing for those of this sign to express their versatility in a controlled
way — by doing many different things, but making quite sure that one project is
completed before another is started, so that when a year's work is assessed
there will be a feeling that a great deal has been achieved in a variety of
fields.
A lot is said about sport and the Sagittarian. I tend to think this is
overstressed, having found no greater number of sportspeople born under this
sign than any other. They do most certainly need exercise, and often enjoy it
more than many Zodiac types, and it is true that a young Sagittarian will be
"coltish"; hopefully, however, as time passes they will develop fine,
somewhat philosophically orientated qualities which will be a source of
inspiration to others. Restlessness is a major fault, but can be overcome once
the individual has sorted out his or her real objectives, and decided that the
grass is not always greener on the other side of the hedge.
There is plenty of scope where careers are concerned. The intellectual
Sagittarian will enjoy publishing or may work well in the fields of higher
education, and working abroad often appeals, since many of this sign have a fine
flair for languages. The veterinary profession can also be rewarding. Tradition
suggests that the Law and the Church are quintessentially Sagittarian.
Sagittarians and Emotions
Claustrophobic conditions of any kind cannot be tolerated by this Zodiac
group, especially when it comes to emotional relationships, chiefly because of
their need for freedom of expression. Obviously, if they want a meaningful
relationship to last, they have to compromise to a certain extent, but it is
important that they are not constrained by a partner who is jealous, or does not
fully understand the way they function.
Rather less importantly, Sagittarians
hate a room with no view — it makes them feel closed in. Their sense of fun is
infectious and their positive, extrovert enthusiasm second to none. This is the
sign of the hunter, but that does not mean that they enjoy the pursuit of wild
animals; interestingly they do enjoy hunting for bargains in junk shops.
Sagittarians make exhilarating partners in spite of their need for
freedom, and will always encourage their lovers to develop their individual
interests. They need an energetic, lively sex life and will get very bored indeed
with a partner who has no sense of fun or who is too pessimistic in outlook.
Sagittarian Physical Challenge
If
they keep busy and active they are usually very healthy, but the hips and thighs
— the
Sagittarian body-areas — are vulnerable, and it is here that most Sagittarians
(Sun- and Rising-sign types) put on weight very easily. The liver is also
Sagittarian ruled, hence slight "liverishness" and hangovers can be a
problem.
Sagittarians and the Family
Sagittarians also make extremely lively and somewhat demanding parents
— no
bad thing, as they will certainly get a great deal out of their children because
of their ability to encourage them in just the right way. Children of this sign
must be given a lot of positive encouragement, but may need controlling in a
gentle but firm way so that their exuberance does not become too overwhelmingly
boisterous.
