With a job that restricts freedom, Sagittarius will flounder.
Project Manager: Being a project manager is no easy task for anyone. It requires a lot to balance the many parts and players—to organize other people with supreme attention to detail. Project managers are responsible for planning what needs to happen, who’s going to do it, and how to go about making everything come together.
Ghostwriter: For many, being a ghostwriter is a perfect job. They get to receive pay for writing someone else’s story, they get to stay behind the scenes for the most part, and don’t have to come up with too many of the creative ideas since they’re writing out someone else’s ideas. But if this doesn’t sound like a Sagittarian’s perfect idea of hell, I don’t know what will.
Ultimately, money seems to be where a lot of Sagittarius’ patience with a job comes into play but not for the reasons you may think. They can tolerate a lot if the pay is good. Otherwise, they need freedom and less restraint than these jobs provide.
Sagittarius really has every element needed to succeed in just about any job they put their mind to—however, they do have some special traits.
Resilient: They are super confident and willing to put in the work in to make sure they achieve their goals. Even if their job doesn’t come naturally, they will work themselves into it by trying, again and again.
Charismatic: They will go above and beyond to assist a coworker when they’ve been hit with way too much work or are just feeling challenged with a project.
Compassionate: More than that, they’ll get to know everyone from the person in the cubicle next to them to the person who grabs the trash every day.
Fun: Always looking for a good time, Sagittarius will be the one to get the office together for happy hour, arrange the office holiday parties, and of course, make sure that each birthday is celebrated in the grandest of ways.
Open-Minded: This sign can work well with just about anyone.
Ambitious: And lastly, let’s not underscore the sheer ambition that Sagittarius displays on a daily basis.
Sex with Sagittarius is a bit of a Tabata-like event: hot spurts of intense cardio coupled with short, brief moments of catching your breath and adoring each other’s bodies. It’s sensual, it’s pleasurable, but dang if you don’t need some energy to see it through.
And see it through you must—if you expect Sagittarius to want a second round. They’re not down for passive partners. In fact, they want someone who is just as rowdy between the sheets or in the back of the bar or outside next to the car as they are.
Thankfully, since everything with Sagittarius is an event (thanks to Jupiter), that means you will definitely break a sweat before you break out an orgasm. Speaking of orgasm: Expect that you’re likely to have more than one. Sagittarius likes to keep those pleasures nice and full.
When it comes to love languages, it can be hard to pin down what a Sagittarius needs from moment to moment. As a mutable sign, they crave change. But with that, their needs or expectations change with each passing moment as well.
Quality time, believe it or not, is actually pretty high up on the list of things that Sagittarius needs from a partner. Though they enjoy their solo adventures, the truth is someone who is just as willing, interested, and passionate about seeing the world is their idea of a dream come true.
Physical touch is also a really important aspect of a relationship for Sagittarius. It’s especially true for those just jumping into the dating pool or for those in long-term partnerships. This sign is filled with passion and their ruler planet, Jupiter, makes them like to go big.
Lastly, we have words of affirmation. Sagittarius is more interested in having words of affirmation as empowerment to keep doing what they’re doing.
In the beginning… The commitment level of a Sagittarius can best be described as “until morning.” As a mutable sign, Sagittarius has a bit of an abrasive attitude when it comes to potential lovers.
Sagittarius has a nasty habit of chasing whatever captures their interest—which means, your date could end and you’d find them talking up someone at the bar as you head out. They’ll congenially wave goodbye and go back to their conversation.
When things are going well… Those who happen to catch feelings will find Sagittarius sympathetic but quite frank about the fact that they don’t “do relationships.” Sagittarius views partnerships as something that will cramp their style. It means having to take into account how another feels. It means having to answer to someone else, and that just won’t do for an independent Sagittarius.
When things are on the rocks… If you try to argue or prove how good the two of you are together, don’t waste your breath. They’ll already be on their way out.
The symbol for Sagittarius is said to depict a Centaur or an Archer. While most signs have an animal for their symbol, Sagittarius’s symbol holds special meaning in its departure from that norm. In most cases, the Sagittarian glyph or symbol is seen as an arrow pointed upwards.
The arrow is indicative of Sagittarian’s sheer will and determination. When there’s something that a Sagittarius wants, they get it. There is precious little that will stand in their way—including those pesky things like jobs, responsibilities, bills, and the like.
Always turned upward, the arrow shows Sagittarius’s typically upbeat, positive outlook. They are the first to see the silver lining of just about any situation and can help lift others to the same vibration. They are also incredibly smart and philosophical about the higher concepts of life and its meaning. They want to know and understand that which remains hidden from most.
Life is one giant adventure when it comes to Sagittarius rising people. This is a rising sign that has big plans and even bigger hopes. Ruled by Jupiter (planet of luck, abundance, and expansion), it’s no surprise this rising sign always has a grand plan. And most of the time, that grand plan will have very little details.
It’s easy for Sagittarius rising to see the big picture, but they can struggle with follow through. Being incredibly optimistic, Sagittarius rising people naturally attract all kinds of friends with their upbeat attitude.
Sagittarius rising people are honest and direct. They won’t shy away from telling you if your outfit isn’t flattering, and they won’t think twice about hurting your feelings. To Sagittarius ascendant people, being honest and forthright is their priority—and that’s what matters when it comes to being a good friend.
As a forever student of the world, Sagittarius moon placements enjoy absorbing knowledge, seek adventure, and crave constant stimulation in life. They believe there’s a deeper purpose for everything, and because of that, are rarely satisfied with routine. Variety is required in the lives of Sagittarius moon placements—staying in one place too long won’t feed their soul. Sagittarius moon people thrive off of space and freedom. Their need for activity runs deep, and there is a sense of restlessness built into their system.
Forming connections feels fulfilling to Sagittarius moon placements. These natives love to travel, meet people different than them, learn from these people and places, and pass on that knowledge to their loved ones. The traditional archetype of Sagittarius is the teacher, and with lunar placements, we find that knowledge, or people in their lives who can teach them something, is value of the utmost importance.
Just like Aries, many of the traits that make Sagittarius endearing can also make them not-so-pleasant. Here are a couple Sagittarian traits that aren’t so appealing.
Unreliable: Because they fly by the seat of their pants, they often make plans they’ll never follow through on. Don’t be surprised if they promise to help you move into your new place and you learn they’ve just flown off to Vegas on a whim.
Bad Planner: For all of Sagittarius’ many amazing traits, they need a little lesson in planning.
Lackadaisical: Sagittarius runs on Sagittarius time. They can be totally chill—relaxing at the park after a gnarly bike ride—when suddenly, they’re in the mood to see Paris.
Naïve: These natives believe that most people are just like them: kind, optimistic, and totally honest.
Impatient: They want what they want, when they want it.
Moody: They move fast and expect those around them to move just as fast.
Brutally Honest: Sagittarius’ honesty can go both ways as well. Sometimes it’s needed, and sometimes… it’s not.
Sagittarians are like the magical unicorns of the zodiac. You’ve heard they exist but trying to pin one down is like catching a cloud. Here’s what makes them so special.
Ambitious: What Sagittarius isn’t strong in everything they do? This sign makes for natural athletes with more ambition than they know what to do with—meaning, if at first they don’t succeed, they’ll keep at it until they’re at the top.
Lovable: Their boundless energy and gregarious personality make them so much to be around. Like seriously, they’re the most favorited zodiac sign socially.
Inclusive: Charismatic and outgoing, they’re the life of the party and everyone wants to be around them to join in on the fun.
Open-Minded: Since Sag craves and needs to enjoy the entire buffet of life, they rarely say no. This makes them quite the friend to have on hand—whether you need a good night out or help to get back at that ex who broke your heart.
Adventurist: Sagittarius is your typical world traveler. They need the taste of adventure, the room to roam, and they’re absolutely not afraid of anything.
Philosophical: Speaking of spirituality, Sagittarius is very philosophical and loves to learn about every religion and spiritual path they can.
Resilient: With all this fearlessness, taste for adventure, and ambition, let’s not overlook the fact that Sagittarians are amazingly resilient. Sag is quite capable of making their way through just about anything you put on their path.
