My dad said of Sagittarius: “The Sagittarian quest is for spiritual enlightenment. In all their travels, escapades and fascinations, Sagittarians are seeking only one thing – the elusive bridge of wisdom which links the world of the finit to the world of the infinite. Though many choose to wear the jester’s cap, it rests on the head of the zodiac’s deepest philosopher.” (Jonathan Cainer 1997)
Enthusiastic, loyal, generous, happy, great sense of humour
Sagittarius is a sign typically as a fun, wise and protective influence
Sagittarians have such a grasp of the universe and it’s infinite possibility and truth that they refuse to be bogged down by day to day nonsense like time keeping or boring commitments. This gives them a brilliant adventurous streak and ‘up for anything’ attitude! This can unnerve some people and inspire others. Sagittarians need enough freedom to go where they are inspired to, they can feel easily trapped by obligations and dull senses of duty. But Sagittarians have a real difficulty saying the word ‘no’. They are eternally optimistic which is one of their best qualities, but they can give off mixed messages about whether they have the time or energy to commit because they always, genuinely believe that they will have infinite resources until they are forced to realise they are actually bound by the same constraints as the rest of us mere mortals!
If a Sagittarius does something they do it because it’s worth it. If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well. If it’s worth doing well then it’s worth doing to wild excess and few times more just for good measure! Sagittarians have abundance in good nature and good luck. They know how to push their luck too, and will take things further than anybody else with a blind abandonment of the rules that inspires either fear or awe, or a mixture of the two from most other people.
Sagittarians are deeply brave and loyal. They commit wholeheartedly to those they love and expect, quite rightly, undying loyalty in return. Sometimes their unbreakable optimism can lead them to hold out for just a bit too long, sure that the right thing will come to them just after the next corner… or the one after that. They don’t like to let go because they believe in what they believe so badly it can become obsessional. Until it isn’t and then they let it go and don’t care at all! This ability to build the most beautiful bridges, and burn them down to dust is one of the most confusing things about Sagittarian behaviour. It is as baffling as it is beautiful. Watching them become totally absorbed by something or someone is like watching a magic show. You can’t work it out, and actually, part of you doesn’t even want to! It’s best to just go along for the ride and get off if (or when!) it gets too much.
A Sagittarian has a fiery temper, but mostly it’s fairly fleeting. They would much rather pursue the next big thing and focus on pursuing the ideal than ruminate on old wounds.
They are essentially deeply philosophical thinkers so once they have pondered for an answer as to why things didn’t work out they bounce back with that relentless loveable enthusiasm. That being said, they are also profoundly sensitive and when they do care they care so deeply it hurts. That’s why they need to move onwards and upwards. You can’t pin a sagittarian down once you see how brilliant they are flying free, you won’t want to!
