Sagittarians are direct and forthright, good-natured and affirmative in their outlook.

They also like to have fun and enjoy a good chuckle, even at their own expense. They gravitate toward adventure, sports and travel, as well as gambling and other forms of risk-taking.

They are likely to be very curious about the world around them, with a love for nature and a contagious enthusiasm for exploration of all kinds. At the highest level, Sagittarians are concerned with understanding, perception, and mental activity in the service of their high ideals for the benefit of mankind.
