The wild archer leaves no small mark within our birth charts, and there really are very few exceptions to that rule.
Who is the wild archer? It’s bold and adventurous Sagittarius, of course, and there’s a bit of that wandering spirit within every single one of us, whether or not you’ve recognized it immediately.
The spirit of the Sagittarian soul will be dominating the sky starting on November 21st, and it will be highlighting its qualities within each of us in its own way. You’re going to want to know how the arrow of the wild archer has pierced your natal chart, so you can see what exactly is getting spotlighted for you this Sagittarius season.
About The Sagittarius Zodiac Sign
The wanderer with a heart of gold, Sagittarius may not seem like an easy zodiac sign to pin down and fully understand.
Sagittarius holds true to many of the core traits of any Fire sign, being bold, spontaneous, spunky, and full of adventure (and perhaps a little mischief). Being the Mutable sign of the fiery bunch, Sagittarius is all the more unpredictable and dislikes sticking with one thing for very long.
Perhaps if it weren’t for the influence of lucky and expansive Jupiter, we might see Sagittarius in a more chaotic or intense light. But this planet of growth and open-mindedness ruling the archer keeps Sagittarian energy feeling light, enthusiastic, and ready for anything!
The Impact of Sagittarius Season
Like all other zodiac seasons, you’ll be experiencing Sagittarius’s influence on the Sun for a whole month.
Where will you see its influence? Well, you’ll have to take a closer look at your birth chart to see what is getting truly highlighted. It’s a lot easier than it may seem, so don’t fret if you’re not so sure!
Sagittarius in the Birth Chart: Planets
First, check to see where Sagittarius lands in the planets of your birth chart, with these placements having a major impact on core pieces of your personality and who you are as a person!
Sun Sign, Moon Sign & Rising Sign in Sagittarius
With any of these placements in your chart, you’ll notice the energy of Sagittarius come up quite prominently for you in many aspects of life.
For instance, the Sun, representing the ego and a core piece of the self, places the adventurous archer’s energy in many places of your life, including what you wish to put forth into the world.
The Moon, governing emotion and your inner world, allows you to connect with Sagittarius in the emotional space (which can feel fiery, unpredictable, and curious with this sign). And finally, with a Sagittarius Rising, the traits are projected outwards, making it a noticeable part of who you are to others around you.
Mercury in Sagittarius
If you have a Sagittarius Mercury, your archer energy comes through most in how you communicate and share information.
This placement is actually in detriment, which may seem strange for such an outgoing and curious sign. However, Sagittarius always has much to say and do but never seems to have enough time to fully articulate what is happening in their big, bright minds.
With this placement, it may feel like your communication doesn’t even always do you justice and that there’s always a more philosophical discussion to be had.
Venus in Sagittarius
Venus, the planet of love and beauty, ultimately shows us how we love. So, Venus in Sagittarius is fun, fiery, and excitable within relationships and connections with others.
More than anything, you crave adventure, excitement, and growth within this area of your life. You may find it hard to settle down, but the key to solving this dilemma is actually quite simple and comes down to finding connections with people who want to grow and change as much as you do!
Mars in Sagittarius
Mars, the planet of war, ambitions, and will, shows us, as you may expect, how we express our ambitions and goals.
With Mars in Sagittarius, you are undeniably full of spark and life but may wish to take on too much at once or sometimes experience intense ebbs and flows of not wanting to do anything at all — and then the next day, you’re off on your next adventure!
Unpredictable and thrill-seeking, this spontaneity and excitement also keep this placement special and a force of change for the world.
Jupiter in Sagittarius
Sitting pretty in its home planet, Jupiter in Sagittarius is domicile — this means, super comfy in this placement.
Jupiter shows us how we expand, grow, and broaden our horizons, sometimes by unpredictable or strange means. Sagittarius equally extends its arms in that direction no matter what, so the two are a match made in heaven.
When you embrace adventure and wander on the side of the unknown, you’re more likely to succeed in all that you do with this lucky placement.
Saturn in Sagittarius
The sight of Saturn in your birth chart isn’t always pretty, as it’s the planet of restrictions, karma, and discipline. It restricts whatever it touches.
So it may seem like freedom-loving Sagittarius is a mismatch for Saturn, and from time to time, you certainly will wrestle with intense themes of freedom vs. restraint in your life with this placement.
Still, both energies adhere to what they feel is right at their core, having a strong sense of ethics and identity. So aligning with that can make this placement a powerful one, too.
Uranus in Sagittarius
Most people born in the ’80s will have Uranus in Sagittarius, being the older end of the millennial generation.
Uranus, the planet of rebellion and change, loves the freedom-loving and adventurous spirit of Sagittarius. We can see this in how many within the millennial generation have opted for change and renewal in making waves throughout society.
Neptune in Sagittarius
Throughout the ’70s and mid-’80s, Neptune in Sagittarius transited the skies and made the archer’s mark on babies being born at the time.
This planet of dreams, illusions, and intuition linking up with the adventurous archer made plenty of sense for children born into a time of ‘70s hippies and waves of rebellion and change.
Pluto in Sagittarius
With Pluto in Sagittarius in the charts of those born between the mid-’90s and late 2000s, we’ve finally made our way into seeing Generation Z’s astrological imprints.
The planet of change and intense transformation meets the Sagittarian open-mindedness and love for freedom in a profound mix of rebellion and shift in ideas.
Called “rebels with a cause” as early as the early 2010s, when many were still children, we have yet to see the mark they’ll be making with this powerful placement.
Chiron in Sagittarius
Chiron shows us where we hold some of the deepest wounds.
With Chiron in Sagittarius, the wounds are felt in areas where you were restricted, not allowed to express yourself freely, or made to feel like your growth, expansion, or sense of luck and whimsy were not valuable assets.
Sagittarius in the Birth Chart: The Astrological Houses
Even if you have no planets in Sagittarius, you can still see where the energy of Sagittarius lands in your chart through your houses.
One of your natal houses should fall in Sagittarius—depending on the house system, some may have more than one, and some may have none.
Sagittarius in the 1st House
If your 1st house is in Sagittarius, the qualities of this passionate and eccentric sign are projected outwards.
So even if you feel like you land on the more introverted side of the outgoing spectrum, others may still seem to perceive you as spontaneous, adventurous, and leading the next big idea or conversation.
Sagittarius in the 2nd House
If your 2nd house is in Sagittarius, you may notice that money finds you when you least expect it or comes in unpredictable flows.
Everything the wild archer touches comes with a flair of whimsy, adventure, and unpredictability, so the 2nd house in Sagittarius is best experienced with that open-mindedness and go-with-the-flow spirit the archer is known for.
Sagittarius in the 3rd House
If your 3rd house is in Sagittarius, you’ll find its qualities highlighted in how you communicate with others.
The 3rd house is the house of communication amongst some other things (like siblings), which places some of Sagittarius’ outgoing and eccentric qualities in a particularly open space.
Even if your flow of internal thought and feelings doesn’t always seem to come with a fiery flair, it may seem like your words roll out that way nonetheless!
Sagittarius in the 4th House
If your 4th house is in Sagittarius, your foundations and sense of home will be structured around Sagittarius qualities.
This may create a tendency to create a “home” in foreign places or not wholly resonate with the idea of traditional home and family structures. A love of traveling or living abroad might spur from this placement in particular.
Sagittarius in the 5th House
If your 5th house is in Sagittarius, the qualities of the archer can come out in love and with your hobbies.
Your love for philosophy, spiritual topics, and branching out into unknown territory may take heavy priority and emphasis on your hobbies, studies, and personal leisure. You may even feel compelled to take center stage with these pursuits and share your knowledge with others!
Sagittarius in the 6th House
If your 6th house is in Sagittarius, you assist and help others with your wandering, open-minded spirit.
Your spiritual knowledge and pursuits, for example, may be particularly important in spreading light in the world. Others may look to you as a beacon of insight and guidance.
Sagittarius in the 7th House
The 7th house in astrology rules over partnerships and shows us how we intimately connect with others in a one-on-one space.
As such, a Sagittarius in 7th house placement requires growth and adventure in their connections with others and looks for other peers with similar aspirations or at least ones that can expand their horizons too.
Sagittarius in the 8th House
With the 8th house in Sagittarius, you may find that topics like religion, the occult, taboo, and strange themes in life are what grant you a sense of adventure.
Because the 8th house is a place of the hidden (including hidden finances, like inheritances and wealth), you strive to understand, dig deep, and prod into the depths of the human psyche, experience, and life.
The complexities of human nature are truly fascinating to a Sagittarian 8th houser, and it’s here that you find a sense of liberation.
Sagittarius in the 9th House
If your 9th house is in Sagittarius, you’ll find its qualities especially highlighted, as this is the archer’s native house!
Traveling, exploring different philosophies, and venturing outside of traditional home turf is a must for this placement. Spiritual questions will be pondered, and new lands will be unearthed.
Embrace the love of learning and exploration of new places, and this placement will reward you!
Sagittarius in the 10th House
If your 10th house is in Sagittarius, the qualities of the archer take over in your career.
Others might expect you to teach, have all the answers (or questions), and be open about sharing your philosophical and spiritual wisdom with the world.
Whether or not you’re in an untraditional career field, you may also find that you end up being a trailblazer or questioning why things are the way they are in your workplace.
Sagittarius in the 11th House
With the worldly 11th house ruling over friendships and community, Sagittarius in this house thrives when surrounded by those who challenge their beliefs (or will at least engage with them about their own).
For those with this placement, the community is about growth and change, and you’ll likely seek others who are equally open-minded about being changemakers and adventurers in the world.
Sagittarius in the 12th House
With the 12th house holding illusions, mysteries, and the subconscious, Sagittarius being housed here opens you up to some of the philosophical or foreign mysteries you never knew existed.
Passionate teachers full of optimism and curiosity, this placement can be a powerful beacon of insight. On the flip side, you’ll need to learn how to channel this eccentric energy to get there — lest you risk getting lost in all the abundant questions your mind seems to run wild with.
Wandering With the Sagittarian Spirit
No matter where Sagittarius lands in your birth chart, it adds a bit of a wandering, unpredictable, and fiery spirit to that planet or house.
Maybe you’re typically the down-to-earth friend, and the sight of this strange sign is making you question how you should be channeling your inner adventurer. Or maybe you’ve known you’re a bit of a trailblazer all your life, and seeing the archer in your chart helps clarify where you can place that energy effectively.
Either way, if you’re a Sagittarius (or a Sag Moon/Ascendant), follow your daily horoscope for more insights.
