Sagittarius

**SIGN OF THE ENGINEER**

SAGI\* [INDIGO CASTE] // \*ITTARIUS [DERSE + VOID]

The alternative sway of Sagittarius is Sagittanius, and the opposite sign is Gempio.

The official website defines Sagittarius in three segments: sign class, lunar sway, and aspect.

Indigo Signs are the enthusiasts of the sign classes. Friendly and cheerful, their optimism is contagious. Being around a well-adjusted Indigo Sign is always a good time. It's hard not to be drawn into their excitable orbit, just like they are drawn in by anything and everything that piques their interest. And those interests are liable to change at any time. Indigo Signs will often surprise their friends and family by declaring they are no longer interested in what just last week they were claiming was their jam. If you catch an Indigo Signs in a philosophical mood, they can be unexpectedly poignant and introspective. A downside of all this jovial enthusiasm is that Indigo Signs often don't know their own strength. They are known to be careless, both physically and emotionally, their conversations punctuated by jostling elbows and tactless comments. They don't usually mean to offend, and are often shocked to find out they upset anyone. When this happens, they can dig their heels in and insist they did nothing wrong. In romance, Indigo Signs need partners who can keep up with their expansive personalities, as well as forgive them for the occasional hurt feeling or two.

Derse Dreamers have personalities marked by a distinct and restless skepticism. Whatever their waking circumstances, chances are they will live in a state of dissatisfaction. Rebellion is in their blood, manifesting whether they are fighting back against a fascist dictatorship, or the most recent trend in casual footwear. Derse Dreamers are cerebral and self-aware; they have a far better grasp on the landscape of their own minds than on the world around them, which they can find alienating and confusing. But as so much of their identity is built on control, they will do their utmost to hide any insecurities, often with false humility or self-deprecating humor. They may be inflexible and pessimistic, but they are also great problem solvers, facing conflicts head-on with shrewd, calculating minds. They see one true path among an infinite snarl of wrong ones. They tend to be introverted, but if you win their trust Derse Dreamers are extremely powerful allies. However, they find sincere vulnerability difficult and will often keep people at arm's length. Letting go and living in the moment is hard for a Derse Dreamer; they constantly look toward the future and analyze the past.

Those bound to the aspect of Void are the universe's secret-keepers. The unknown doesn't scare them-where others might see emptiness, they see potential. A blank page, an empty canvas, that's what the Void-bound live for. They value mystery and the unexplained, and are not particularly bothered by not having all the answers. Where others might be compelled to go out and seek answers, the Void-bound lean more toward casting doubt on what is already considered fully understood. They don't take much on faith and would rather live in a state of confusion than believe something that might be untrue or bow to intellectual authority. After all, in order for something new to be built, the old, rotting foundation must often be razed. At their best, Void-bound are wise, intuitive, and vibrant. At their worst they can be dismissive, indecisive, and apathetic.

## Real World Astrology

**Please note that while, yes, this information is about the original zodiac sign, not all of this information will be true about every single person born under this sign. Also, hating people for their zodiac sign is just not cool.**

Sagittarius (from the Greek Τοξότης) is the ninth (9th) of twelve (12) western zodiac signs. It takes inspiration from the zodiac Sagittarius "The Archer", and people born within the months of November 22nd to December 21st are known to be a Sagittarius. The zodiac Sagittarius is one (1) of six (6) positive signs, one (1) of four (4) mutable signs, and one (1) of three (3) fire signs alongside Aries and Leo. The sign ruler of Sagittarius is Jupiter, the detriment is Mercury, the exhaltation is thought nowadays to be the South Node, and the fall is thought nowadays to be North Node.

The six positive signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius) are known as the signs with a Positive Polarity. This is in reference to the energy that the sign holds. These six signs are traditionally known as the active, Yang, expressive, or "masculine" signs. The positive signs also include the fire and air triplicities.

The four (4) elements (Air, Earth, Fire, and Water) are attributed to the twelve (12) western zodiac signs, and each group corresponds to a specific group of traits often found in those signs, along with a personality type that was proposed by the Greek physician, Hippocrates. These groups are known as the Four Element Triplicities. One of these groups is Fire which has been known to house the traits of Assertive, Drive, Willpower. According to Hippocrates, the Fire element correlates to the Choleric personality type. Choleric people are described to be Neurotic Extroverts or Unstable Extroverts, which means that they tend to be touchy, restless, and agressively optimistic.

Sagittarius people are compassionate and kind-hearted individuals who are always there to lend a hand of help, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on. They value their friends and family and would die for the people they care about. They surround themselves with people who care about them and they're kind of picky about the people that they choose to have in their life, often having a very good sense of who's the right kind of person to be in their life. Sagittarius likes to travel and see the world, they like to get out and do things, because they don't like when their life gets stale and boring. They don't take crap from anyone and they know how to stand their ground, they're always ready to fight for themself or what they believe in, and if they think that you're not a good influence for them, then you can expect the Sagittarius to limit the amount of contact they have with you.

Signs like Aries, Leo, and Gemini make great bonds with the Sagittarius because of their drive to learn and explore everything that the world holds for them, and they all believe in doing what's right for themself. Other signs, such as Aquarius and Libra, can help enable Sagittarius in all the best and worst ways, so a bond with them is like a two sided sword. Pisces, Scorpio, and Cancer often will unintentionally hurt the Sagittarius, and together it can lead to a rocky relationship, but there's nothing that the Sagittarius can't do as long as they believe in themself.
