Sagittarius is the most cheerful, easy-going, animated and optimistic sign of the zodiac.

Whatever Sagittarians want to do, they want to do it BIG. Walt Disney and Steven Spielberg are perfect examples.

Like the Centaur, - depicted by a man with the body of a horse -, Sagittarians need a great deal of freedom, and need to feel free to 'gallop' in the 'open field'... Some Sagittarians make keen travellers and explorers; others have an interest in religion, spirituality, foreign languages, outdoor sports or philosophy.

They often enjoy exploring different places and cultures and stimulating challenges that expand their horizons as well as seeking the truth.
If your birth date falls between November 21st and December 21st (the dates when the Sun enters Sagittarius may vary by a day or two - depending on your year of birth), your Sun is in the Sign of Sagittarius.

Well-known deceased Sagittarians include: Walt Disney, Gianni Versace, Frank Sinatra, Bruce Lee, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Beethoven, Berlioz, Sir Winston Churchill, Mark Twain, Edith Piaf, John Osborne, William Blake, Gustave Flaubert, Jane Austen, Maria Callas, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.
