Sagittarius Personality Traits

Bold

Sagittarius is one of the bravest and boldest star signs, which is largely due to their fiery nature. They’re charismatic and love the spotlight (and are happy to share it). They speak their truth and share their ideas and perspectives. There is nothing timid about them.

Blunt

If you want someone to “keep it real,” find a Sag friend or lover. This occasionally tactless, but very straightforward sign, is as honest as you get. They will say it like it is and therefore fair well with air and fire signs, or people with a lot of masculine energy. Water signs tend to become quite offended and even hurt with a Sag.

Inspiring

Inspire-and-shine is the Sag motto. One of the best Sagittarius traits is their ability to uplift others, and transform rooms with their positive, powerful energy. Witty, humorous and very knowledgeable, Sagittarius can motivate people into action. If you’re feeling down or in need of a pick-me-up you can be sure to receive the joy you need from a Sagittarius friend!

Talkative

Of course, life involves duality… sometimes Sag doesn’t know when to stop talking. Being so ‘yang’ (fiery, masculine, extroverted) means they also have issues with chatting about everything.

Adventurous

Sagittarius is arguably the most adventurous and restless sun sign simultaneously. They love traveling the world, exploring new places and cultures, and meeting new people. Nature and hiking treks are always on the agenda. After all, what centaur doesn’t love the woods?

Optimistic

Optimistic and high-spirited, Sagittarius sign is filled with life force. This zodiac sign is ruled by the Archer that literally aims for the stars. Sagittarius likes to set their goals high and has many aspirations.

Restless and Unreliable

Those born under the sign of Sagittarius do need to be mindful of keeping their dreams rooted in physical reality, though. Unlike Capricorn, a recurring issue through life is they can lose interest in practical responsibilities and may simply abandon them. When this isn’t channeled proactively, boredom and restless take over — and this can lead a usually empowered Sag to become stuck in a rut, or dis-empowered and grumpy.

Fickle

Frivolous, fickle, and flighty… these are possibly the worst Sagittarius traits. Sagittarians make at least one or two terrible decisions in love and career in their lifetime. It usually involves dropping a possible soulmate or loyal friend. Though if they didn’t botch the whole situation too badly, they’re charming enough that there’s some hope for future reconciliation once they realize what they’ve done.

Creative

This mutable sign has a creative spirit and an active imagination. Mutable implies incredible adaptability, and this helps them in creative and artistic pursuits. Many people born into this sign achieve considerable fame, success or prestige or at least pursue it.

Intelligent and Intuitive

Sagittarius is both intelligent and intuitive. On the shadow side, this personality trait can make them the most self-righteous sign out there. (Yep, worse than Leo.) But, when it’s channeled properly, they are wise, discerning, and deeply perceptive.

Witty

The Sagittarius laugh deserves a mention. It is infectious, so much so that this jovial fire sign can have a room full of people in hysterics. Their sense of humor is almost their superpower, allowing them to uplift moods and shift frequencies. Laughter is a medicine and Sag is a master at this healing art.

Sagittarius in Love

Sagittarius is affectionate and romantic but also wants to maintain their independence.  (Remember, they’re free-spirited at heart.) This zodiac sign secretly craves long-term companionship, but they need a partner who shares their love of adventure, travel, and intellectual pursuits. Because of this, it can take them a while to commit. But, they’re happy to do so once they’ve established a spiritual and physical bond and “sussed you out.”

Sagittarius is most compatible with the air and fire signs. Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. Aquarius, and Libra all make for good matches. A Gemini can help to show them the meaning of duality and balance within a partnership.

On the other hand, they don’t mix well with watery emotional signs like Cancer and Pisces. They need spontaneity and excitement, not to sit around and talk about their feelings all day.

How to Attract a Sagittarius

• Be fun. Sagittarius loves someone who can match their sense of fun. They’re not intimidated by others who are as spontaneous or fun-loving as them, so be your brightest and boldest.
• Don’t be too emotional. Ok, this isn’t suggesting you be superficial, but just remember that Sagittarius likes to keep things ‘light’ and upbeat. This means too much watery-emotional stuff will put them off.
• Project an aura of independence and intelligence. Independence, intellect and intelligence are massive turn-ons. Don’t be fake or self-righteous about your intellect. Simply shine with your natural charm and charisma.

Best Careers for Sagittarius

The best careers for a Sagittarius include anything that involves travel, digital nomading, tourism, hospitality and all things “alternative.” Or, of course, something having to do with the arts.

They may choose to become a teacher (of metaphysics, philosophy, or even poetry), musician, or astrologer. Alternatively a yoga instructor or personal trainer would suit them perfectly.

Financial stability can be theirs once they learn how to ground their talents and gifts into a professional path. This may be harder in youth, but with age and maturity it can be achieved.

Sagittarius Family and Friends

Sagittarius is a kind, generous, and supportive friend and family member to have. You can count on them for their honesty. Bonds are important to them, despite what they might show sometimes through their fickleness!

One of the greatest Sagittarius personality traits is their intuitive wisdom. They are genuine in their desires to help loved ones through advice and intuitive guidance. They like to be seen as a bit of a sage or wise elder, and it’s best to humor them. Most of the time they really do have some amazing wisdom to share.

Spirited, optimistic, joyful and self-expressive, this fire sign will try their best to uplift you and inspire. They’re a true gem.
