As the night sky darkens to mark the New Moon in Sagittarius, you will hopefully feel the energy of a new beginning that is filled with a sense of adventure and optimism. From November 22 to December 21, we celebrate our spirited Sagittarius friends!
Archers LOVE to travel and explore. They are fiercely independent, but loyal to a fault. They'd much rather jump into a trip with a friend by their side. Sags are big-hearted and always want to be generous. They are hopeless optimists who always want to find the bright side of a situation.
Sags are also extremely truthful, and it can sometimes get them into trouble. They are filled with energy and creativeness, which means they hate to be tied down, and are always looking for a new path to blaze.
Symbol: Archer
Ruling Planet: Jupiter
Element: Fire
Hogwarts House: Gryffindor
Sign of their sidekick: Cancer
Sagittarius as a protagonist: At the heart of a story centered around an Archer is probably a conflict that arose from our protagonist being a bit too honest. They'll learn that being blunt is always the answer, but their optimism assures them they will do better next time.
How a Sagittarius saves the day: With a Sagittarius to the rescue, their honesty is the best policy can actually save the day. They won't back down from standing up for a friend or anyone in need. And their postive attitude will make sure that no one feels bad about a misunderstanding.
Perfect reads for the Sagittarius in your life: We rounded up books filled with travel, adventure, and optimism to read all Sagittarius season long!
