Background information

The Zodiac is an ancient system of astrology dividing the sky into twelve segments, each linked to a constellation and calendar period. These signs—Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces—are believed to shape personality, behavior, and life direction. Originating from Babylonian astronomy and refined by the Greeks, the zodiac continues to be an influential framework for interpreting human nature and cosmic influences across various cultures.

Sagittarius, the ninth sign of the zodiac (November 22–December 21), is ruled by Jupiter and symbolized by the Archer. Adventurous, optimistic, and philosophical, Sagittarians are seekers of truth and meaning. Their fiery enthusiasm propels them toward new experiences and ideas. Known for their humor and honesty, they inspire others with their expansive vision. Sagittarius embodies boundless curiosity and the joy of discovery.
