People born under the Zodiac Sign Sagittarius (Dhanu), the ninth Sign of the Zodiac calendar, are truth-seekers. Graphically, a Sagittarius appears like a man wielding a bow, whose rear half of the body is of a horse. The Sagittarius is also referred to as the Archer in myriad literature. Knowledge and movement hold the key to re-fuelling their broad-minded approach to life. Fun loving and carefree, these enthusiastic souls believe in living life to the hilt!

Philosophical and religious minded, the Sagittarius desire to discover to the meaning of life. They are clear thinkers, and feel happy when others agree with their well-thought-out point of view. But, they can also be argumentative and blunt, though rarely rigid. As enthusiastic as listeners, as they are as talkers, they carefully listen to what others have to say, primarily with an aim to collect information to quell their thirst for knowledge. Eternal wanderers of the Zodiac, Archers also need a plenty of space to explore the world. If they feel hemmed in, the Archers may lose patience and act difficult!

Die-hard fun-lovers that they are, they are among the first ones to arrive at a party and the last ones to leave. Known for their love for travelling and improving their knowledge base, they wish to learn about the culture and people of every place they visit. A free spirit and answerable to none, they derive their strength from new adventures to tackle and travel through relationships as well as countries.

They hate being put into claustrophobic situations - physically or emotionally. Honest and at times tactless, the Sagittarius love challenges. Although they view themselves as adventurers than intellectuals, they also enjoy reading, writing, and exploring unknown subjects and are good learners that would do extremely well as academicians. Though unconventional, they are quite popular and are loyal to friends. Many also enjoy the patronage of influential people. Excitement can make them clumsy and objects may fly from sweeping gestures. Sometimes insecure and edgy, they also doubt decisions and judgement.

The Archers are outgoing, enthusiastic and sometimes overly frank, they sometimes tend to overstep their boundaries. They tend to talk quite fast (and often quite a lot too), so it's a often somewhat difficult to keep pace with the Sagittarius-born. This, many a times, results in diminishing the weight of their statements and opinions. Often they end up hurting others feelings. But, on the other hand, their words also inspire people, as they are forward thinking people who are curious, spiritual and true believers. They attract others for their sense of fun and enjoyment, and confidence.

The Sagittarius-born are seldom demonstrative about their affections and love. They don't cuddle, rarely shower gifts, or roses often labelled off as 'cold'. However, exciting for them and their beloveds comes from activities like bungee jumping, mountaineering, horse riding, going to exotic destinations. Sagittarius-Aries, Sagittarius-Leo and Sagittarius-Sagittarius may good life partners, as they tend to share similar energy levels.
