The road traveled may be more fun the destination itself. The search for knowledge and truth is endless. They are always learning, trying new things and going to new places. They are bound to be teachers and consultants. They are the "I UNDERSTAND" sign. Sagittarians are open-minded and can look at the big picture. The Sagittarius symbol is the Archer (more specifically, the Centaur - half man, half horse). Known for intelligence and a willingness to listen, they will take in all points of view and make them their own. Archers are full of energy and enthusiasm. They can, and often do, turn this energy to defend their principles. But give a good argument and they may be persuaded with some good debate (but don't count on it). Honesty is high on the Archer list. At times they may become too outspoken and may push their principles onto people. It is all meant to be for your own good though. The Archer is always spreading optimism and knowledge. In turn their good cheer comes back as good luck. At times the Archer may become exasperating in their efforts of enthusiasm. Sometimes they can get carried away with thoughts which may lead to some regret. Their thought process is too fast for their minds. There is just too much to teach and say. They are a confident group, so a slip-up won’t damage their egos. Sagittarians can become reckless and have some emotional confusion. They bounce right back with characteristics like logic, generosity, honesty, enthusiasm and search for knowledge. They can make an amazing travel companion.
