When the Sun is in Sagittarius

Go big or go home! The Sun in Sagittarius invites you to think big, travel far, and be open to everything that’s offered to you. Learn how you can make the most of this transit here:

WHAT TO DO:

Read. Sagittarius is a student of life, and highly prizes education -- both street smarts and book smarts. Adopt Sagittarius’ love of learning and expand your mind with a brand-new topic you’ve always wanted to explore.

WHAT TO SAY:

"Yes!" As an opportunist and a risk-taker, Sagittarius is always up for anything at a moment’s notice. Accept all invitations, even if they seem a little daunting -- if you never try, you’ll never know...

WHERE TO GO:

Someplace different. Sagittarius gets the biggest thrill from going places they’ve never been before. This transit is the time to finally book that ticket to a city you’ve always wanted to visit, or at the very least go to a restaurant where you’ve never eaten before.

WHAT TO WEAR:

Tennis shoes. The Archer is always on the go, so you may find that you set out to do one thing, then end up somewhere you never expected! Easy, comfortable clothes let you go wherever the wind takes you, and help ensure that nothing is holding you back.

WHAT TO BUY:

A plane ticket. Sagittarius is the ruler of faraway places, so the very best way to embrace this energy is to go somewhere far away to sample exotic sights, scents, and flavors. If you can’t get away, stocking up on a few travel books or visiting a foreign restaurant can help you expand your world from the comfort of your own hometown.

WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR:

Lying. Sagittarius is known as the sign of big truth and big lies. Because this sign is ruled by huge, expansive Jupiter, it’s hard not to exaggerate a little -- or a lot -- under the Sagittarius Sun.

WHAT TO LOOK FORWARD TO:

Expanding your mind! Take advantage of the Sun in Sagittarius’ outgoing and enthusiastic approach to life and use this time to learn new things, meet new people, and attract and spread positive energy. Everyone loves a Sagittarius, and this transit is your chance to experience their optimistic and enthusiastic lifestyle for yourself!

If you were born with the Sun in Sagittarius

Born under the Sagittarius Sun, you’ve never been one to hide in the shadows. You are known for your optimism and your fun, upbeat nature. Never satisfied with the bare minimum, everything you do is big -- from the way you think to the way you talk, interact, and carry yourself every day. You have grand visions, and you intend to live up to them.

Life is nothing short of an adventure for you. You realize the infinite experiences this world holds, so you don’t tend to stay in one place long -- you’d rather be moving about, taking in everything you possibly can. You’re a glass-half-full kind of person. Even when things take a downward turn, your faith and focus on the future help you move beyond the troubles of the present moment to realize the great potential you hold.

LOVE:

Just like everything else in your life, love should be an adventure! Relationships are just another realm of life for you to learn and explore. You may often be attracted to people who come from cultures or backgrounds different from your own because they can teach you so much more about the world.

Still, you are an independent soul who likes to fly by the seat of their pants, so serious relationships can sometimes tie you down. In order to maintain your happiness and freedom, you must be with someone who understands your need for independence. The moment a lover tries to tame your wild heart will probably be their last.

CAREER:

You are a visionary and a planner. You’re full of big, wild ideas, and the gusto to go after them. Because you’re more of a spontaneous spirit, any 9-5 gig will probably drain the life out of you. If you must carry out a professional role, at least make sure it includes a heavy dose of business travel, or else you may grow very weary very fast.

You value education above all else, so it makes perfect sense that you would become a teacher, or even a lifelong student. Your optimistic sign is also associated with faith and philosophy, so you could excel at a job in life coaching, motivational speaking, or religious studies.

FRIENDSHIP:

Fun and free, you are the life of any party, and it makes others happy just to be around you! You’ve never had a shortage of friends, and probably have them scattered all over the world. But because you are so independent and always on the move, it can sometimes be tough for you to create deep, long-lasting friendships. Learning new things together or engaging in serious philosophical conversations can help you establish stronger bonds.

What sets you apart:

Lucky you -- Sagittarius is the most fortunate of all the signs! You naturally attract luck toward you, and find it much easier to bounce back from unfortunate experiences than others do.
