Sagittarius: Fire: Masculine: Mutable:

Sagittarius is optimistic and ruled by the planet of  expansion, and sometimes known as the “lucky planet” Jupiter.

The enthusiasm of these wonderful people can spread like wildfire, engaging everyone they meet and spreading the wonder of life where ever they go. :)

Sometimes the quest for “more” can get out of control and become a challenging aspect in close personal relationships, as the desire to experience new places, people and things can be tiring to partners who are of a more sedate nature.

Routine can be boring for Sagittarius folk and don’t even think about taking control over their lives.  Don’t try to “hold them to you” as they will either leave you, or the relationship will likely end up being one of misery :(

The number one need of a Sagittarius is FREEDOM…. Freedom to explore, to learn, to experience… The Freedom to live life to the fullest… 

We thank you Sagittarius, for showing us how to have fun and how to laugh at ourselves and your belief that laughter truly is the best medicine…. :)

if you are celebrating under this zodiac sign the folks at SGC wish you a Happy Birthday and a year ahead filled with goodness.….

Note: This is the also the date of the New Moon in Sagittarius… be sure of what you wish for if your birthday falls on this date…. With Jupiter and the Moon both moving into Sagittarius along with the moon renewing herself, you might just get what you wish for… :)
