Horoscopes - Sagittarius

79293812_6d04f8bdb2_m In this Ninth of a 12 part series on horoscopes, we're going to look at the third of what are called the fall signs, Sagittarius the Archer.

People who are born between November 22 and December 22 are Sagittarians. Their element is Fire, their quality is Mutable, their energy is Yang, their rulers is Jupiter, their color is Purple, their gem is Turquoise, their main anatomical parts are the liver hips and thighs, their keywords are understanding, enthusiasm and exploration, their Tarot suit is Wands and their Tarot Major Arcana card is The Chariot.

Some famous celebrities who are Sagittarians are Brad Pitt, Ben Stiller, Lucy Liu, Britney Spears, Woody Allen, Kim Basinger and Walt Disney.

Those born under the sign of Sagittarius are called the gypsy, student and philosopher all in rolled into one package. There is no other sign that is as focused on finding the truth and meaning of life itself. They have a burning need to understand everything. They thrive on the changes that this search can lead them through. Their life is literally one long adventure that is never ending.

The archer needs their freedom and independence. They never get tired of a change of scenery. Therefore, it is not uncommon for an archer to move several times in their lifetime. A home is just a temporary stopping point along their journey of life. It's very easy for them to miss an important date or deadline, but they are also great for getting a dull party going. Their lack of commitment can drive some people crazy. It's hard to tie the archer down to anything and have him commit. Many archers go through their life without ever getting attached.

That brings us to an archer in love, if there really is such a thing. Commitment? Not much of a chance, at least not for a long period of time. If they ever do find their true love you can bet that they left a long line of lovers behind. The archer is great for a good time. If that's all you're looking for, then you have found the ideal partner. But if you expect that good time to last forever, you better look elsewhere.

At work, the archer is not the most dependable person because they tend to lose interest in a project very quickly. If you want the archer to perform well, put him in a think tank kind of environment. They are at their best when they have to come up with solutions. This all goes back to their unending desire to find the meaning of life. At work, they may simply have to settle for finding a better mousetrap.

Archers have a weakness to always having to be on the go. Because of this, they can wear themselves down quite easily. While they're doing this running around, they may end up gathering a number of projects to do. Eventually these can become quite overwhelming, though they will never admit it. The search for truth and understanding is all that matters.
