Have a Sagittarius in your life that you're trying to figure out? Or perhaps, you're a Sagittarius yourself, looking to unearth the parts of you that don't come so easily. Well, you're in luck, because we're bringing you a full rundown and explanation on Sagittarius personality traits.
Below, our resident astrologer Jules Ferrari is breaking down the characteristics of the zodiac sign, from their inherently 'seeker' nature, to their aversion to stagnation. Below, a complete debrief.
Sagittarius personality traits
Your archetype is on a quest, searching through eons of history, scouring our philosophies, sciences, religions and cultures to make sense of life. You learn through being on the frontline of your own existence and the wisest among you have likely tried out and lived through a range of different beliefs and ‘truths’.
Your ruler, Jupiter, is the largest planet in our solar system and speaks of your expansive capacity for life. Your archetype is both student and teacher and part of what keeps your horizons open is the desire to understand more and more and more. That thirst is never fully satiated and that is part of your magic. Because the more you get to know ‘the truth’, the more you understand how limitless the interpretations and mythologies are. We have been trying to make sense of existence since being on this planet, and that likely won’t stop. You have the capacity to be a walking map of many paths taken.
An important aspect of your sign is how you embody the role of both student and teacher. The student part of you devours knowledge and through your lived experiences you have a wide breadth of understanding. When you speak from your experiences, from what you personally know, you teach the rest of us. Don’t contain all of your learnings within you, share them with us. Relay your findings. There are many paths we can walk in this lifetime and the knowledge that you have from your own adventures helps to illuminate the many pathways possible to the rest of us.
What’s vital for your life is for it to have meaning. And here you are the architect, building your own beliefs and faith, again, through trial and error, sorting out what resonates and what does not. So what is the current meaning that you apply to reality? What is it in life that gives you faith in yourself and existence?
Where are you most comfortable in the role of student and teacher? What lights you up? What brings you that rush of feeling so alive and excited to be here?
You are an explorer and that requires a level of personal freedom, to continuously grow. Stagnation drains your vitality, you need the wide-open road ahead of you, not a parking lot.
HEALING BALM
Gemini, your opposing sign, brings you curiosity and the ability to ask more questions, to see new perspectives and to hold multiple perspectives on the same topic. This is helpful, especially when/if you get stuck in one reality channel for too long or become limited or stagnated in your scope. This playful, fun and freeing energy can bring lightness to those periods of existentialism. If the page is empty you can write your own story, create your own myths.
