Reading the symbolism

Sagittarius symbolism opens the horizon through travel, study and a larger question. Keep the curiosity, and give the next step a time and a place. Candor works best when it leaves room for another interpretation.

Strengths and a useful pause

The traditional profile emphasizes enthusiasm, perspective and an appetite for discovery. A useful point to notice is making a promise before considering the everyday work involved. Try recalling a particular situation before deciding how closely the description fits.

The ruler in context

Jupiter supplies another layer of symbolism in this profile. A birth chart also includes the Moon, rising sign and other placements, so a Sun-sign description leaves many details open.
