Positions
Sun in Sagittarius
Modern
Your sense of self grows by expanding: a new place, a new idea, a belief worth chasing. You are blunt because you value truth over tact, and you need room to roam or you wither. The growth is following through close to home, not only dreaming far away. At your best you give people back their sense of possibility.
Traditional (Hellenistic)
Sagittarius is Jupiter's fiery domicile, mutable and expansive, so the Sun here works through the search for meaning, travel of body or mind, and the wide horizon. The tradition reads Jupiter's signs as generous and far-seeing. The gift is faith and vision; the cost is a restlessness that prefers the horizon to the ground underfoot.
Lean in — Aim the optimism at one real goal.
Watch for — Promise the horizon and skip the next step.
