Sagittarius

Ruler – Jupiter; fire element, mutable, yang

Sagittarius the Centaur is a hybrid creature that unites the physicality and instincts of a horse with human intellect. Some Sagittarians are focused on athletic prowess or the outdoors, while others prefer scholarship and creativity. The common thread is enthusiasm and a life-long quest toward chosen pursuits. Sagittarius enjoys popularity, travel, and sharing experiences with others. It’s known as a bachelor sign as settling down may limit choices and freedom.

Mercury is in detriment in Sagittarius. The sign’s challenges include recklessness, exaggeration, excessive consumption, inadequate sympathy toward others, resistance to commitments, authority figures, and rigid rules.
