What are Saggittarius traits?
In ancient Greek mythology, medicine was considered to have been created by a centaur named Chiron. Chiron was thought to be a wise old centaur who had gifted the knowledge of medicine to human kind. You could almost call him the centaur for disease control! Horrible puns aside, the Sagittarius symbol is a centaur, and it echoes the qualities of Chiron. This is the symbol you see on zodiac merchandise, such as a Sagittarius t-shirt. Sagittariuses are wise, loyal, kindhearted, and understanding. They can also be egotistical and manipulative if they are unhealthy. Carrying Chiron’s traits, Sagittariuses have some unique qualities that make them stand out among other signs. If you want to understand Sagittariuses, you must know that they carry the following traits:
First, Sagittariuses are self-determined. They have what psychologists call an internal locus of control, meaning they follow their own way and are not pulled around by other people. This can be a strength because a Saggi is hard to manipulate and can be very creative, inventive, and original in a way that other people are not. But it can also be a weakness, because Saggis can be rude, cold, or rejecting toward other people if they feel imposed upon. As always, moderation is key. Learn to recognize your Sagittarius independence and its strengths, but know that other people’s input can be valuable.
Second, Sagittariuses are empathetic. They are high in what psychologists call trait agreeableness. This means that they are capable of understanding other people’s feelings. Even more, a Saggi can sometimes feel another person’s emotions directly. If an anxious person is in the room, the Saggi may feel anxious and not know why! This can be a strength, because a Saggi can be very good at reading and empathizing with people. This makes them natural counselors and therapists. But it can also be a weakness, because sometimes Saggis are manipulative, using their powers for the wrong end. They can also become overwhelmed by the emotions of others.
Third, Saggis are very inquisitive. This means they are high in what psychologists call trait openness, or openness to experience. Saggis are open-minded novelty seekers who want to see more of the world. They can become bored easily and need constant new stimulation. This can be a strength, because Saggis become very knowledgeable after tasting and dabbling in so many different things, and because they are willing to entertain any idea, no matter how outlandish. It can also be a weakness, because Saggis can be “so open minded their brains fell out”. They sometimes can be easily distractible. They can lose focus or end up being preoccupied by small things out of curiosity, missing both the bigger picture and their own responsibilities.
As a Saggittarius, you are one of the wisest and most open of all signs. Remember to stay focused, never let your natural curiosity die, use your powers for good, and don’t let other people’s feelings overwhelm you. Listen to their counsel, but always, always march to the beat of your own drum, whether that means having your own unique style, wearing vintage t shirts, or burning incense in your home.
