OK, I'm a little late here on Sag... blame it on undying apathetic laziness, lack of being properly diagnosed and medicated or me pretending to have a life every now and then or alternately, just freekin' deal with it.
I'm still "Semi" Retired....
Continuing the tour of the zodiac to see which astrological sign is represented by the best athletes.
So far, we've toured Cancer, Leo, Virgo the best zodiac sign and also Scorpio. When we're all done, we'll take sample representatives from all the signs and put them up against each other in a battle royale for Zodiac dominance!
Sagittarius, "the ninth sign of the zodiac, symbolized by an archer. Astrologers consider people whose birthdays occur from November 22 to December 21 to be born under the sun sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius, a fire sign, is ruled by the planet Jupiter, named after the wise ruler of the ancient Roman gods.
Astrologers believe that Sagittarians have fun-loving, friendly, philosophical, intellectual, straightforward, and expansive natures. Sagittarians are optimistic, and sometimes have a naive belief that everything will turn out fine despite any obstacles. Good luck often follows typical Sagittarians, and because whatever they need usually comes effortlessly to them, they tend to be generous and willing to share. Sagittarians also value frankness and honesty, and their comments can sometimes be blunt.
According to astrologers, typical Sagittarians dislike being confined or tied down; they seek change, especially through travel. Sagittarians require freedom of thought and ideas, but they otherwise tend to be fairly conventional and respect tradition. Professions traditionally associated with Sagittarius include higher education; law; medicine; importing and exporting, or other activities that involve foreign countries; and publishing."
