~Something about
Sagittarians:~
- They are just honest, sometimes to a fault. They are
dependable, friendly, versatile, tactless, quarrelsome and often
dictatorial. Their honesty and outspokenness is most generally
well-grounded, as they really do know what they are talking about, but they
would do better if they could temper their speech a bit.
- They are philosophers, psychiatrists, lawyers,
ministers, salespersons, explorers, professional sportsmen, travel
enthusiasts.
- They love the outdoors and travel and sports whether
they actively participate or not.
- They have humanitarian instincts, but they do not
display a great deal of emotional sympathy.
- They are usually lucky financially, even though they
may try many jobs before they settle on one career.

Sagittarians have a positive outlook on life, are full of enterprise,
energy, versatility, adventurousness and eagerness to extend experience
beyond the physically familiar. They enjoy travelling and exploration, the
more so because their minds are constantly open to new dimensions of
thought. They are basically ambitious and optimistic, and continue to be
so even when their hopes are dashed. Their strongly idealistic natures can
also suffer many disappointments without being affected. They are
honorable, honest, trustworthy, truthful, generous and sincere, with a
passion for justice. They are usually on the side of the underdog in
society they will fight for any cause they believe to be just, and are
prepared to be rebellious. They balance loyalty with independence.
Sagittarians are usually modest and are often religious, with a strong
sense of morality, though they tend to overemphasize the ethical codes
they follow and worship beliefs about God rather than God Himself. This
means that, negatively, they regard rigid, unloving, intolerant adherence
to ritual and conventional codes as more important than the truths they
symbolize or embody. They sometimes pay lip service to religions and
political parties in which they have ceased to believe because the outward
forms satisfy them, yet they may not hesitate to switch allegiance in
politics or change their system of belief if they see personal advantage
to themselves in doing so.
They have both profound and widely ranging minds, equipped with foresight
and good judgement, and they can be witty conversationalists. They love to
initiate new projects (they make excellent researchers) and have an urge
to understand conceptions that are new to them. they think rapidly, are
intuitive and often original, but are better at adapting than inventing
and are at their best when working with colleagues of other types of
character that compliment their own. They are strong-willed and good at
organizing, a combination that gives them the ability to bring any project
they undertake to a successful conclusion. Their generosity can be
balanced by their extreme care at handling their resources.
Sagittarians are ardent, sincere and straightforward in love, normally
conventional and in control of their sexual natures. Yet if thwarted, they
may easily allow their failure to embitter their whole lives or they may
revenge themselves upon the opposite sex by becoming cynically
promiscuous. They are more apt then the average to make an uncongenial
alliance. If their marriages are successful, they will be faithful spouses
and indulgent parents; but their innate restlessness will inspire them to
use even the most satisfying ménage as a base from which to set out on
their travels. They need to fell free and are often faced with the choice
of allowing their careers to take over their lives at the expense of the
love of their spouse and family. Sagittarian women are the counterparts of
their men; even if they have no career to rival their love, they find it
difficult to express affection and may run the risk of being thought
frigid.
In other personal relationships they are reliable, seldom betraying any
trust given to them. They can, however, be impulsively angry and both male
and female Sagittarians know how to be outspoken and exactly what
expressions will hurt their adversaries most. On the other hand they are
magnanimous in forgiving offenses and are responsible when looking after
the elderly in the family.
Their gifts fit Sagittarians for a number of widely differing professions.
They are natural teachers and philosophers with a talent for expounding
the moral principles and laws which seem to explain the universe. This
gift enables them to be successful churchmen on the one hand and
scientists on the other. The law and politics also suit them, as does
public service, social administration, public relations and advertising.
Travel and exploration naturally appeal to such restless souls and, if
their opportunities are limited, they may find something of travel and
change of scene in the armed forces or through working as a travelling
salesman. Others may make fine musicians and, in the days before
automobiles, they were said to be successful at horse trading and all
activities, including sporting ones, concerning horses. This has been
translated in modern terms into an interest in cars and aircraft - and
again with emphasis on the sporting side racing, rallying etc. They are
said to make good sports coaches, but their tastes in this direction may
lead them into imprudent gambling, though the gambling instinct may be
sublimated by carrying it out professionally as a bookmaker.
The vices to which Sagittarians are prone are anger they tend to flare up
over trifles; impatience - they want to rush every new project through
immediately and demand too much of colleagues who cannot work at the pace
they require; and scorn of the inadequacies of others while expecting
fulsome recognition of their own efforts. They may in one sense deserve
recognition, because in completing a major project they will sacrifice
their health and family relationships; in their family's eyes they may
merit condemnation.
They can be exacting, domineering and inconsiderate in the work place; and
boastful, vulgar and extravagant in their private lives. Their
restlessness, if excessive, can jeopardize more than their own stability.
some Sagittarians risk becoming playboys, wasting their lives away in
frivolous pursuits. Others can develop a moralizing, religious fanaticism
or else turn into hypocrites, their inner prudishness disguised by an
outward appearance of joviality. Another side of the religiosity which is
a danger in Sagittarians is superstition.
