Sagittarius- The Optimistic Philosophers

Curious and energetic, Sagittarius is one of the biggest travelers among all zodiac signs. Their open mind and philosophical view motivate them to wander around the world in search of the meaning of life.

Sagittarius is extrovert, optimistic and enthusiastic, and likes changes. Sagittarius-born is able to transform their thoughts into concrete actions and they will do anything to achieve their goals. Like the other fire signs, Sagittarius needs to be constantly in touch with the world to experience as much as possible.

The ruling planet of Sagittarius is Jupiter, the largest planet of the zodiac. Their enthusiasm has no bounds, and therefore people born under the Sagittarius sign possess a great sense of humor and an intense curiosity.

Freedom is their greatest treasure because only then they can freely travel and explore different cultures and philosophies. Because of their honesty, Sagittarius-born is often impatient and tactless when they need to say or do something.

So, it’s important to learn to express themselves in a tolerant and socially acceptable way. Independent and strong-willed, Sagittarius personalities are all about going off the beaten path.

Sagittarius isn’t afraid to step away from the pack and is a natural-born leader who goes after what he or she wants, regardless of what other people think. A Sagittarian is a born adventurer and loves solo travel and exploration.

Sagittarians also loves exploring the inner workings of their minds, and love stretching their horizons through a good book or movie.

They are open-hearted, generous, and big-spirited, but Sagittarius is always truthful. Because of this, they may hurt others’feelings for not having tact or empathy. The latter is not true.

With their keen imagination, Sagittarius is adept at putting themselves in another person’s shoes—that’s why so many Sagittarius are successful actors—but they do not feel the need to beat around the bush or lie. You can trust a Sagittarius to tell you what they really think. You can also trust a Sagittarius, period. Unlike other signs, they won’t spill any secrets.

A Sagittarius will always be honest and in check with their emotions, and a Sagittarius will not engage in emotional blackmail.

The Positive Traits

Sagittarians are very adventurous from both a mental and physical point of view. Their mind is always open, and they don’t mind change, no matter if it comes from others or from within themselves.

These people really know their way with words and are curious about any event or new culture because both these things give them a chance to learn something new.

Versatile and able to understand people or the psychology of masses, Sagittarians can perfectly fit in with any group or culture they didn’t even have heard of before.

The more they move, the stronger, confident and happier they become. Always free, optimistic and honest, many want them as friends because they also like to give a hand and to help people get out of trouble.

As a matter of fact, they’re the friendliest natives in the zodiac, the ones who do favors and not expect anything in return. It’s unusual for them to ever feel jealousy or possessiveness, and they really hate seeing these things in others.

Don’t ever expect them to tell others how to live their life or what to do because it’s simply not their style to meddle in somebody else’s business.

Only when someone needs their help, they’ll start asking questions and be curious about that person’s life. Sagittarians can entertain anyone because they’re creative and love being around people.

Their sense of humor has a fan base, and they really can compete with Gemini natives for the first place and being amazing conversationalists or engaging storytellers.


Fire Is The Element of Sagittarius

One of the weaknesses Sagittarius individuals have is their inability to focus because they’re not and see only the big picture, so they really don’t know how to deal with the details in life.

These natives have a problem with being practical, but at least they can express themselves very clearly and honestly. Believing all the people are good, they’ll often end up disillusioned and confused.

Many see them as too enthusiastic and talkative, while their honesty can be confused with impatience and bluntness.

Since they love change, it can be impossible for them to commit and sustain a relationship for a very long time. Difficult traits of the Sagittarius sign include argumentative, flaky, preachy and tactless.

Sagittarius is an adaptable mutable sign and an extroverted fire sign. At times, a Sagittarius can be reckless. But they can also be extremely wise and never shy of sharing their high-minded opinions with their audience.

Fire Is The Element of Sagittarius

Sagittarius is a mutable Fire sign, they draw energy from the element of Fire to inspire and approach life with an enthusiastic fervor, but with the adaptability of the mutable signs.

Ruled by Jupiter and sharing that planet’s optimism and desire to find meaning in life, Sagittarius cares less for being in charge than to live a life of meaning, to experience a grand adventure. Like other mutable signs, Sagittarius meets life with flexibility of spirit.

However, like other Fire signs, there is a tendency for the ego to take center stage. Sagittarius is famously oriented towards the search for Truth and loves travel which helps to expand one’s point of view and awareness of meaning in life. 

The Fire element is masculine or yang, and is active and outer expressive in its basic nature. It corresponds with the Jungian typology of Intuition. Fire is a radiant form of energy that brings light to the world around it, enthusiastic and excitable, self-oriented, impatient and essentially optimistic.

It is represented in the signs of Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. Fire people are honest to a fault, freedom-loving and often insist on their own point of view. They live in the idealism of great thoughts and deeds.

Ruling Planet: Jupiter

The zodiac sign of Sagittarius has the dominance of the ruling planet of Jupiter. As a matter of fact of mythology, Jupiter is the ruler of the Gods, who attained this position by overthrowing Saturn. He also acted as their guardian and protector and his symbol was the thunderbolt.

Jupiter is also the biggest ruling planet of the zodiac and looks very much like their king only. Astronomers believe that the planet uses its massive gravity to protect all the other planets from menacing comets and asteroids.

People born under the sun sign of Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter, tend to be blessed with growth, development, wealth and good luck, in generous doses. They are also characterized by traits like justice, morality, humanity, joviality, along with high aims and ideals.

Such individuals tend to value freedom a lot and have a desire to explore. The planet is also associated with overseas travel, education, religion and law.

Sagittarians also display qualities like intellect, kindness, competitiveness, extrovert, excellent communication, passion, etc. On the other extreme, they are extremely restless and prone to changes.

Jupiter is the planet of faith, positivism and optimism. It rules Sagittarius and is exalted in Cancer. Jupiter represents the principle of expansion, versus contraction (as represented by Saturn) and the aspirations of the higher self.

Its position in the chart indicates how your faith will be expressed, and what modes of activity will stimulate self-confidence.

Sagittarius Tarot Card: Temperance

The Temperance card shows a large, winged angel who is both masculine and feminine. She wears a light blue robe with a triangle enclosed in a square on the front, representing that humans (the triangle) are bound by the Earth and natural law (square).

The angel balances between one foot on the rocks, expressing the need to stay grounded, and one foot in the water, showing the need to be inflow. She pours water between two cups, symbolic of the flow and alchemy of life.

In the background, there is a winding path up to a mountain range, reflecting the journey through life. Above the mountains hovers a golden crown encased in a glowing light, a symbol of taking the higher path and staying true to one’s life purpose and meaning.

As the Mutable Fire Sign Sagittarius is a philosopher ruled by the big and expansive mighty Jupiter. Sagittarius learns about the big mysteries of the world by exploring it, and most often through travel.

This makes Temperance the card that symbolizes Sagittarius. Temperance denotes harmony and balance and a constant flow of energy and unconditional love.
