Why Sagittarius needs to slow down once in a while…
You’re always moving because there’s always somewhere new to go, someone new to meet, and something new to see. Just reading your itinerary exhausts ordinary folks! You’re going at the speed of light, but are you getting anywhere? Are you running toward something or away from it? Is the perpetual motion hiding dissatisfaction with your life? Learn from Pisces and slow down. Drift with the current like a leaf in a lazy stream. Give yourself permission to set aside your to-do list. The world won’t end! You never know what will come to find you when you stop and wait.
There’s a reason you´re the gypsy of the zodiac…
You’re a fearless free spirit who’s too restless for sedentary life. Spin the globe and you’re off to whichever spot your finger touches. Travel is one area where procrastination and a lack of planning could actually be a good thing—if you’re smart about it. Rather than nail down reservations ahead of time, blithely go where others fear to tread. Improvise. Leave the beaten path and see where you end up. Explore a wild place by moonlight and a city at dawn. Lunch at a tiny taverna because you like its name. Trips that go off without a hitch aren’t the ones you remember!
Pick this up Sag…
You always have abag packed so you’ll be ready to go at a moment’s notice. It has to be utilitarian, but there’s nothing that says it has to be ugly! Find a functional and fashionable piece, big enough to carry all your essentials, that doesn’t look like an army rucksack. Pick a classic roomy shoulder tote or a structured sack for your personal electronics, beauty essentials, and change of clothes (in drip-dry, packable fabrics that won’t make you look like a Shar-Pei at your destination!), pockets for travel docs, and shoulder strap for hands-free carrying.
This key move will put Sags in better shape fast…
The kingdom of your ruler Jupiter includes health, and while he may not be the most romantic planet in the heavens (he has other gifts), you can combine fitness with a little one-on-one time to strengthen your bods and your relationship!
Try some circuit training. If you each pick two moves and both do all four, you can lift weights together, but go at your own speed. Do as many reps of each move as you can in one minute and keep it up for 15 minutes. You can challenge each other, so long as you don’t overdo it! Treat yourselves to smoothies at a juice bar afterward!
You’re the sign that can have it all it all, Sagittarius!
You don’t have to sacrifice love for freedom if love is truly what you crave. A relationship doesn’t have to equal restriction. There’s a lot to be said for focusing your attention on one relationship rather than seeing how many you can shoehorn into a lifetime. Your true partner will understand your quest to explore, travel, and experience life. And when said partner isn’t with you, he or she will be waiting patiently for your return. Yes, wild horses running free are beautiful, but that doesn’t mean that all domesticated horses are unhappy!
Love a challenge? Try keeping a Sagittarius!
How does Sagittarius love thee? Let us count the ways. Sag doesn’t ask for much, just a few dozen basic requirements, but if you have these ten qualities, you could be in for the love adventure of a lifetime!
Respectful (extremely important)
Spontaneous (keep a bag packed for those spur-of-the-moment trips)
Open-minded and adventurous
Honest (you know Sag will be)
Patient and easygoing (very important)
Independent (have a life outside the relationship, because Sag certainly will)
Smart
Interesting (and interested)
Positive and trusting
Romantic and passionate
Let’s talk about emotion…
Your symbol, the Centaur, is half man and half horse, and like him, there is a duality about you. For the most part, you’re viewed as the zodiac’s buoyantly irrepressible cheerleader, but you’re more sensitive than you seem at first glance. Thoughtlessness hurts your feelings, but you rarely talk about your feelings, so it’s hard for others to know. You get melancholy at times. Boredom makes you irritable, and when that happens you may feel like no one cares about you. That’s far from true! Fortunately, these dark moments pass quickly because you know tomorrow will be better!
Are you making things far too complicated, Sag?
You’re too busy to bother with elaborate makeup routines, but you still want to look your best! Ditch tons of foundations and concealers and opt for a bit of cream blush or bronzer for a fresh, easy, healthy glow.
And for those beautiful Sagittarian eyes? Powder shadows can cake and creams can run (especially in summer), so opt for a wax-based crayon instead. It has rich color and staying power. New shades of lilac or moss green complement most skin tones. If there’s no time to tweeze stray brow hairs, you can conceal them with a swipe of a neutral, light-reflecting eye shadow under the arch. Easy peasy!
Ways a Sag can win—faster, easier, better…
You need somewhere to direct all that excess energy. Why not try something you’ve never done before? Get down and dirty (literally) by training for a mud run or obstacle course. The workouts will make you physically stronger, while the act of facing any fears will strengthen your emotional muscle.
Or try a triathlon. You can start with a mini and work your way up. Just the locales of the races (Hawaii, perhaps) will be inspiring. You can even help raise money for a good cause while you sweat. Look online for organizations that sponsor races and offer training help!
Common culprits that zap Sag’s natural zip and zest…
You’re usually so full of zip that it’s a shock when you drag. There could be a good reason for your lethargy. Take a few minutes to figure it out and you’ll be back on the move in no time!
