You thrive on challenges: not because you want problems, but because it’s a kind of exercise for you. It’s like doing a puzzle, but a life puzzle. It is important to recognize that if you have too many challenges going at any one time, you can’t do any of them well. The solution? Pick and choose carefully.
Walking faster than I have to makes me feel really alive
Being ruled by the planet Jupiter—the planet of growth, expansion, and just plain good fortune—is a real gift. Your life is full of amazing people, and wonderful things come your way. Despite that, you’re often impatient, to the extent that you will agree to offers without checking the facts, possibly because you’re overly eager or don’t have the time to ask questions—or, you simply hope everything will work out.
While this hasty approach to various elements of life and planning is typical for you as a Sagittarius, it is a habit, not an unchanging destiny. You can learn to examine the practical side of things—matters such as timing, finances, and the support you need. Of course, if you wait long enough, you can do that in a hurry, too. And you probably did in the past, possibly more than once.
Or you can begin to approach being a Sagittarius differently. Instead of putting off details until the last minute, which has almost become a habit in your life, you can take one of your best assets, which is your enthusiasm, and share it with others. Ask them to join you in figuring out how to make the best of certain plans, projects, or passions, and then to help you turn that into reality.
It may not be your usual approach, but it will be easier—and a lot more fun.
You already know how important it is to keep old friends in your life. Also, you have a strong instinct about making new ones. When someone’s exciting, you’ll draw them closer to you. However, what you don’t do is edit those individuals. That is, to recognize that as new ones come into your life, it’s time to let go of some. You might still see them out of habit, but actually, it is time to say farewell.
The ups and downs you face as a Sagittarius can be stressful, and you’re resilient. However, it’s easier if—instead of draining your energy, as you do with those ups and downs—you find a new balance. Some of that will include trusting those around you with some of the more stressful of those activities.
You thrive on challenges: not because you want problems, but because it’s a kind of exercise for you. It’s like doing a puzzle, but a life puzzle. It is important to recognize that if you have too many challenges going at any one time, you can’t do any of them well. The solution? Pick and choose carefully.
There’s a difference between making tentative plans, which is what this period is all about, and lasting commitments. The problem is, one particular individual views arrangements as final. Gently but firmly help them understand that plans that are flexible will be better all around.
