Sagittarius (astrology), From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sagittarius is an astrological sign, which is associated with the constellation Sagittarius. Under the tropical zodiac, Sagittarius is occupied by the Sun from November 22 to December 21, and under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently from December 16 to January 14. The opposite sign to Sagittarius is Gemini.
Sagittarius is the ninth sign of the Zodiac and associated with travel and expansion. Individuals born under this sign are thought to have a dynamic, intellectual, ethical, humorous, generous, open-hearted, compassionate, and energetic character, but one which is also prone to pridefulness, impulsiveness, impatience, impracticality, and blind optimism. In terms of anatomy, Sagittarius is said to rule the hips, thighs, and sacral area. In terms of geography, Sagittarius is linked with Spain, Arabia, Hungary, Mexico and Australia.
Sagittarians are said to like traveling, getting to the heart of the matter, freedom, laws and meanings, and the general "feel" of things. They do not like off the wall theories, being tied down domestically, being constrained, cooling their heels, and being bothered with details.
Physically, individuals born under the sign of Sagittarius supposedly tend to have a large and well-shaped skull, a high and broad forehead, and often reddish hair. Sagittarians are either tall and athletic or shorter than usual.
