Sagittarians are optimistic, outward-going people who live life to the full. They are generally very popular, and particularly enjoy spending time outdoors with their friends and family.
They are affectionate and loyal to their loved ones. They are able to show their emotions very freely and with a great deal of spontaneity: they are sometimes surprisingly frank, even about quite personal matters. They are generally open-minded, and are good at looking at situations from other people's points of view.
At the same time, they need their freedom. They particularly enjoy travel, and will not be happy if they feel too tied down through their relationships. Although they are generally very loyal, they can be inconsistent at times. They are very patient with their friends and loved-ones, however, and will not become angry unless the provocation is too much to bear.
You are popular with your friends, and are equally attractive to members of the opposite sex.
It is important that you choose someone who is cheerful. The social status of your partner will not be that important, provided you feel secure with them. Your attitude to marriage will be fairly traditional, and you will not appreciate a partner who is unfaithful.
You may be inclined to jump into marriage before you are ready. Sagittarians are often very fortunate in meeting the right person quite early on in life. However, it is important not to be over-optimistic: make sure that you are committing yourself to the right person.
This combination works well, provided the Aries partner can adjust to the Sagittarian's easy-going attitude to life. At times, this couple may seem to be more like a couple of friends than a pair of lovers. However, provided Sagittarius feels sufficiently committed to the relationship, the prospects are good.
If this relationship works, it is more because of the differences between the two partners than because of their similarities. The solidity of Taurus will contrast sharply with the slightly playful approach of Sagittarius. Problems may arise if Sagittarius becomes bored and needs more freedom than is possible with Taurus.
This can be a very active partnership: both Sagittarius and Gemini are dynamic people, who are constantly "on the go". At times, the relationship may appear to lack depth. It is important that they resolve any difficulties as soon as they crop up, rather than leaving them to get worse.
This relationship can work, but it may require a little more determination than some other combinations. The Sagittarian is a little too flighty for Cancer, who could become very insecure. The Cancerian, on the other hand, may respond to this by becoming even more clingy.
In some ways, these two are quite similar. They are both very extrovert, and will have a great deal of fun together. The Leo partner may find the Sagittarian a little unreliable, however: he will be very committed himself, and will want to feel that his opposite number feels the same way.
If this combination works it is probably because of the differences between the two partners, rather than their similarities. The Sagittarian is much more outward-going, and may seem a little wayward to the Virgoan. Virgo must try hard to understand his partner's need for freedom, since constant criticisms will only drive the Sagittarian away.
This is a good combination. They are both easy-going, and should be positive enough to rise above any disagreements. They are both the kind of people who enjoy the good things in life, and do not take themselves too seriously. They must be careful not to waste money, however, since both have an extravagant streak.
Sagittarians are not really serious enough for Scorpios. They can form a good balance to Scorpios' intensity, but this may not be appreciated, especially if the Sagittarian partner seems to be less than totally committed to the relationship. The Scorpion may also be a little too emotional at times.
Like all relationships between people with the same Sun-sign, this combination will either work very well, or not at all. Whatever happens romantically, however, these two are likely to have enough in common to be good friends. Dangers may arise if they are not careful with money; but, provided at least one partner is sensible in this area, and the other is not too extravagant, there should not be any serious problems.
If this works - and it certainly can - it will be an attraction of opposites. The Capricorn partner will be much more down-to-earth and negative than the Sagittarian: this will give some much-needed stability to the Sagittarian, while, at the same time, giving the Capricornian partner some inspiration. The physical aspect to this relationship is usually very good.
This combination will work, provided both partners have the same degree of commitment. Problems will arise if the Sagittarian's need for freedom is too great. Despite his flighty nature, the Sagittarian is warm-hearted, and may feel that the Aquarian is a little too distant at times. A great deal will depend upon other astrological factors in these people's charts.
This can be a workable combination, although there are important
differences between the two sides. The Sagittarian will be attracted to Pisces' romantic
nature, but may be a little too brash for his sensitive disposition. He will also have to
become more dependable than usual. Pisceans can be very insecure, and need a lot of
reassuring. The Piscean, on the other hand, must try not to be too clingy.
Although Sagittarian women are generally very capable and independent, they appreciate some chivalry from their male friends. Open doors for her and buy her flowers, unless she specifically objects to this. Don't let her practical manner fool you into thinking that she is not romantic.
Sagittarians are not particularly impressed by social status. Because Sagittarian woman are so good in business, it is quite possible that she will be earning more money than you.
After marriage, they can become surprisingly bossy. They know that they have good judgement of financial matters, and may well want to run the household finances. They can be trusted to make intelligent decisions.
The Sagittarian man is sentimental and old-fashioned in his attitudes to marriage. However, he is not the most faithful partner, and this can cause a certain amount of frustration. In order to keep him faithful, you will need to give him your full attention, and show your affection for him as much and as often as you can.
Freedom is very important to him: younger Sagittarian men in particular may find it very difficult to settle down. Even when they are in what appears to be a stable relationship, they can be unpredictable. They are inclined to rush off at any moment, as the fancy takes them.
Fortunately for them, they are usually charming enough to be able to get away with this behaviour; but their partners may find it difficult to know exactly where they stand. The Sagittarian man is likely to be very attractive to women, so is unlikely to be short of opportunities for being unfaithful. Later in life, however, most Sagittarians do settle down. They can then make excellent husbands.
More by luck than by judgement, Sagittarians are generally very good at business. Ruled by Jupiter, the planet of luck, optimism and expansion, they are particularly successful when they are in a position of control: they make excellent managers, provided that they have people around them who are capable of dealing with all the day-to-day aspects of running a business. They are less likely to be successful when they are employed by someone else, if only because they value their freedom so much.
Sagittarians are particularly good at buying and selling land and property: some of them have made enormous amounts of money in this area. They have a good head for figures, are quick at making decisions, and are very methodical in their approach. Overall, the Sagittarian is better than most people at making money.
