Who loves the dim, religious light?
Who always keeps a star in sight??
An optimist, both gay and bright???

It is the Sagittarius!!!

At the heart of Sagittarian lore stands the centaur Chiron, the figure of philosopher and teacher within Greek mythology. As a centaur, Chiron personifies the very soul of Sagittarius.

Here is a symbol of half man, half horse, portraying the conflict between the philosophical mind and the carnal instinct of human nature. The glyph represents an arrow slung in a bow, aiming at the stars. This symbol corresponds with the Sagittarian ideals of cosmic progress and abundance. The ruler of Sagittarius is Jupiter.

Sagittarians are positive people. They have a bright outlook on life, are enterprising, full of energy and vitality. Versatile, adventurous and eager to expand their range beyond the comfortable and familiar. They enjoy travel and exploring, and their minds are continually searching for new experiences.

They are idealists, and this seems to keep them going even when there are disappointments which smash their plans. They have a tendency to get over zealous when they are interested in something.

They become bored when they are surrounded by people or situations they are not interested in. They have a tendency to be unconcerned or seem unaware of the thoughts and feelings of others.

Profession

Sagittarians are versatile people and can be found in a number of professions. They are by nature teachers and philosophers.

Advise for the Sagittarians

The Sagittarius love of sports often leads to an indulgence in dangerous pursuits. Many centaurs are prone to accidents due to a tendency of taking too many risks. They are more inclined to suffer from rheumatism and in their latter years by sufferings of the nervous system.

Origins in Mythology

Centaurs belong primarily to Greek mythology. They combine a savage and untamed animal nature with an ancient wisdom of human culture. The wisest, and in some references, oldest of the centaurs was Chiron. Rather than selfishly retain this knowledge, Chiron tutored the great heroes of Greece. Among his charges were non less than Achilles, Acteon, Jason and Hercules.

In a tragic irony, Chiron was wounded with a poisoned arrow by his student and friend, Hercules. Being immortal, the centaur's agony was unbearable. Chiron forsook his immortality, and gave the mantle to Prometheus. Zeus set Chiron's image in the night sky to honor the memory of this noble teacher. To this day we recognize his form as the constellation of Sagittarius.
