Positive traits
Optimistic, wants to expand his horizons in order to move towards a better future. Contagiously enthusiastic. Desires to help others to see the more positive aspects of life. Lively sense of humour. Views life from an all-inclusive perspective. Tolerant. Adventurous, independent.
Negative traits
An exaggerated optimism leads to taking unnecessary risks. A “know-it-all” who is always trying to impress others with his knowledge or cleverness. A lack of inner stability and perseverance causes him to give up projects before seeing them through to completion. Conceited. Becomes self-righteous when angered.
Independent, lively, and brimming with an irrepressible sense of possibility, you feel most vibrantly alive when you’re having an adventure in the world. Ruled by Jupiter, planet of fortune, you appear to breeze through life. Astrologers say you have the gift of providence—luck protects you. In work, friendships, career, money— a door opens just when you need it. Naturally, this makes for a cheerful and ebullient disposition. You have your dark moments, but clouds roll over quickly. You are too interested in what is going to happen tomorrow to fret long about what went wrong today. You are always sure that around the next bend of the road something wonderful is about to happen.
At your happiest and best, you’re a free spirit, a cheerful wanderer, an honest and intelligent companion, and a philosopher who likes to ponder the big questions — preferably with a few pals and a plentiful supply of snacks. You see life as an ongoing quest for experience and wisdom, not as a search for security. Restless and excitable, with a rapid-fire wit, you chafe under restriction and demand autonomy, which you happily extend to others.
In your eternal quest for experience and knowledge, you pursue a multitude of interests and you set ambitious, wide-ranging goals for yourself. You want to see the world and understand it, which is why your sign rules travel, philosophy, religion, law, and abstractions of all kinds. Sagittarius is free- thinking, casual, open-minded, and optimistic.
You are Lady Luck’s companion who seems always to be in the right place at the right time. The truth is that your spontaneous decisions and out-there gambles occasionally pay off, but what benefits you the most is your fearless attitude. Sure, troubles may come. No one is immune to that. But ultimately, buoyed by your curiosity and belief in the future, you bounce back!
