Happy Sagittarius Season!
Sagittarius is a sign of the zodiac that represents people born between November 23rd and December 21st. In other words, Sagittariuses are our friends who were born around the winter holidays.
The astrological sign for Sagittarius is a bow and arrow
In astrology, the Sagittarius sign is represented by a centaur named Chiron holding a bow and arrow. It is also sometimes called the archer sign. Who is Chiron, and why is he the symbol for the Sagittarius sign and the Sagittarius personality? Well, you'll need to understand something about the typical centaur personality for it to make sense. Centaurs were wild, drunken, highly sexual beings who behaved very, very badly. Centaurs represented the animal side of human nature (thus the half-horse, half-human appearance).
Like Chiron, the Sagittarius personality is loyal, sophisticated, independent, and kind! They are unique, artistic, and have unerring judgment. You might even say their arrows tend to hit the mark!
The 5 Key Sagittarius Traits
A Sagittarius personality is not like other zodiac signs' personalities. The combination of independence, intelligence, and compassion makes for a wonderful, caring personality type. But for every positive strength, there's also a weakness, so it's better to know what these weaknesses are so you can be a better Sagittarius and a better person.
To that end, let's break down the five key traits that make a Sagittarius a Sagittarius.
#1: Independence
Independence is one of a Sagittarius's strongest traits. Think about poor Chiron, never quite fitting in with the centaurs, but also not fitting in with the gods. Naturally, he forged his own path, and that's what Sagittariuses are doing to this day, as they follow in Chiron's astrological...uh, hoofprints.
#2: Emotional Intelligence
It's probably not surprising that "intelligence" and "independence" go hand-in-hand with this December sign! Sagittariuses tend to be highly emotionally intelligent, which allows them to connect with the people around them.
#3: Compassion
One of the reasons that Sagittariuses tend to be amongst the most well-liked zodiac signs is because they balance intelligence and independence with a big dose of compassion. In other words, Sagittariuses tend to be smart and nice.
#4: Honesty
People who are born under the Sagittarius sign are often known for their honesty. They're the types of people hate lying and being lied to, which means they're incredibly trustworthy, too.
#5: Curiosity
The last trait common to Sagittariuses is curiosity. People born under the Sagittarius zodiac sign tend to be full of questions. (Remember the kid who couldn't stop asking "why" in class? They were probably a Sagittarius.)
During this Sagittarius season, you may be finding yourself feeling more optimistic about the future and making progress in taking steps to make it even better. At the heart of Sag season, the feeling of being/becoming mentally strong is very present. You’ll notice the need to be more motivated than usual to make sure you’re not missing out on new opportunities.
