Myth: Sagittarius refers to the centaur Chiron, who was accidentally shot by Hercules with a poisoned arrow.
Cheerful and optimistic, Sagittarius has a zest for life and is forever expanding their horizons. Although they like having plenty of people around them, they also need the freedom to get on with what they want from life. As they’re so outspoken and impulsive, Sagittarius can be their own worst enemy. But their strong sense of humor will rescue them from most sticky situations.
Love is based on friendship for Sagittarius and they can never have too many friends. They can be real flirts and are almost painfully open and honest. They love the thrill of the chase and will charge into any relationship with enthusiasm. Commitment isn’t their strong point, but Sagittarius is true in their own way.
Money runs through Sagittarius’ fingers like water. They can be a soft touch if you’re trying to borrow off them but as they’re so vague about money, it’s hard to collect when they owe you. They believe that things will always work out somehow and that’s what tends to happen. Worrying about money is boring to a Sagittarius. Even when they have problems, they remain positive and tend to focus on solutions.
At work, Sagittarius is restless and full of energy and enterprise, always open to new ideas. They have foresight and good judgement and love to initiate new projects. Sagittarius tend to chase many goals in the hope that each will turn up a reward. If one doesn’t, they will be momentarily disappointed but then move on to the next. Because they seek to enjoy life, they can sometimes shirk their responsibilities and might need a reminder of what they’ve committed to do.
If you’re a Sagittarius you need to avoid becoming fanatical about ideas and coming over as dogmatic and self-righteous.
