Sagittarius, an adventurous and philosophical fire sign that is ruled by Jupiter, is known for their optimism, hunger for knowledge, and desire for freedom. However, like all Zodiac signs, there are evolved and unevolved traits to this Zodiac. When evolved, you’ll see traits, such as, being open-minded, truth seeking, and a craving for wanting to inspire others while they journey through life. When unevolved, a Sagittarius is more likely to seem restless, scared to commit, and avoidant. By understanding these dualities, leaves room for this native to grow.
The “big 6” in Astrology refers to one’s Ascendant, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, or Venus placement.
Being evolved means that one is more grounded and "mature" in a certain area of life. While being unevolved means that one may be out of balance or have more growth to do in a certain area of life.
Ascendant
The Ascendant (also referred to as one’s rising sign) is determined by the exact time that you were born. As this does change about every two hours, it’s important to have the correct, exact time! The time itself can help determine the degree of your Ascendant sign. The Ascendant is represented in your Astrology chart in your 1st House! The House of Self.
Evolved
People who show more of the evolved traits of a Sagittarius Ascendant are typically filled with a strong enthusiasm for life and a wanting for adventure! There’s no keeping these soul’s in one place. This soul will want to see and experience everything, immerse themselves in other cultures, learn other languages, and have a deep desire to broaden their perspectives in life. Due to their desire for experiences in other aspects of life then what they know, you can safely assume that people with this placement are relatively open-minded, as this allows them to embrace change and easily adapt to new situations! As Sagittarius is connected to the 8th House, there’s an emphasis here for being naturally interested in more philosophical takes to life. It could be natural for this placement to be influential and inspire others with their thoughts. Another key aspect of this placement is the humor that they have! They love uplifting those around them, making others laugh, and overall spreading joy!
Unevolved
If a soul is showing more of the unevolved traits of this placement, they may come across as overly blunt with little care if they’re hurting one’s feelings in the process. They can tend to get antsy if they’re not on the move, and may struggle to commit to things because of this. The desire for freedom is strongly here, which can also cause a struggle to follow through on responsibilities. The adventurous qualities with this zodiac can be translated into impulsiveness or recklessness when unevolved.
Sun
The Sun in Astrology is seen as the center of everything, just as it is seen in our solar system! It represents your inner self, and can define aspirations and what you want from life. It can also be used to focus on the source of your vitality! Your Sun sign is determined by the day that you were born.
Evolved
Having an evolved Sagittarius Sun looks like having high levels of optimism and a very adventurous spirit! At their core, seeing the world lights them up. As this placement is very curious, this will drive them to seek out new experiences in many different ways. This could look like traveling to new places, learn other languages, and engaging with other cultures. Their philosophical nature, mixed with their extroversion, lends to them wanting to share their ideas with those and the world around them! Sagittarius Sun’s really value being able to enjoy their freedom and independence!
Unevolved
On the other hand, an unevolved Sagittarius Sun can look like someone who struggles with being tactful in situations. The sense of adventure turns into a sense of restlessness. This restlessness can turn into a lack of commitment or ability to follow through with their engagements. Similar to a Sagittarius Ascendant, while craving a sense of freedom, this placement may start making decisions that are more impulsive.
Moon
The Moon in Astrology is what can show us where we are more emotional and where our needs are. It can also provide one with what their emotional wants and powers are. Knowing this can provide more insight into ways to strengthen ourselves emotionally and know what to be mindful of for improvement! Additionally, the Moon is one of the most important aspects for children, as it shows what they need the most. The Moon is determined by the precise location of where it was in the sky when you were born.
Evolved
As the Moon shows our emotions, an evolved Sagittarius Moon can really show their high levels of optimism and emotional need for adventure in their personalities! They have a very deep need and want for exploring, and expanding their horizons on a physical and intellectual level. As they are very emotionally resilient, this helps them when they’re in new situations that are out of their comfort zone. Due to this placements curiosity, they are drawn to philosophical discussions and enjoy sharing ideas and experiences with others! This Moon is very free-spirited and encourages others to live out their authentic desires in life. They have an infectious enthusiasm for life that is contagious to those around them! Finding new pursuits, and cultures brings a deep level of fulfilment to this soul.
Unevolved
Being unevolved with this placement can lead to much emotional restlessness and a feeling of being confined when they aren’t out exploring. Their emotional need for freedom can lead to avoiding emotional commitments and relationships that may lack depth. As Sagittarius can come off a bit cold when unevolved, the emotions of this native can follow that trend, as well. It’s natural for this sign to be reckless from their impulsivity which further makes it hard to process emotions before taking action on them.
Mercury
The planet of communication, learning, and writing - basically anything that involves how the mind works! Since Mercury is closest to the Sun, it will also be in the same sign or within one sign away from your Sun sign.
Evolved
With Sagittarius having a natural pull towards wanting to share their ideas, having Mercury here (when evolved), makes for a very broad thinker with an open-communication style. As they already have a natural curiosity for life and ideas, their want to connect with others makes them great at conversing with a wide group of people. Their optimistic outlook on life, and sense of humor shine through in their interactions. The love for learning that this placement has becomes even more highlighted in their conversations, often gearing them to talk about philosophical topics and challenging the way they think. Being able to think outside the box also allows for them to have creative problem solving.
Unevolved
When this placement is unevolved, it can lead to a restlessness in conversation that tends to hurt others with their words from being overly blunt. They may struggle with jumping around too much in a conversation, as well. Sagittarius is naturally a more confident Zodiac, however in this case, the confidence could lead to them making statements that don’t have depth to back them up, or are based more on one’s own opinion that they feel is a fact. Overall, being unevolved can lead to struggles with connecting and communicating with others.
Venus
The planet of love and femininity! In one’s chart, this can show how they go about romantic relationships, and how they express/see beauty and artistry. Venus is determined by where it was in the sky when you were born. Venus is in one zodiac sign for about 30 days before moving into the next sign.
Evolved
An evolved Sagittarius Venus radiates a vibrant and adventurous spirit when it comes to love and relationships. They need to be able to explore and feel independent, while also having a partner who has a passion and appreciation for travel and other cultures. This sign can tend to show their love through wanting experiences with their partner, and wanting to share their passions for other cultures! This placement knows how to keep a relationship exciting, and their partner on their toes. They tend to be spontaneous, generous, open-hearted, and fun-loving in relationships.
Unevolved
An unevolved Sagittarius Venus may struggle with commitment and fear the idea of a traditional relationship. The desire for freedom that they have can tend to control their want to get into a relationship and feel “stuck”, which in turn, lends for a more fleeting character in love. They could also be overly blunt in situations regarding their partner, which could result in their partner feeling unappreciated.
Mars
Mars rules over masculinity in Astrology! This planet is all about taking action, being assertive, and one’s impulses. Similar to Venus, Mars is determined by where exactly in the sky it was when you were born. However, it usually takes about two months in a sign before it changes to the next. It also goes retrograde about every 26 months, which is why it’s important to know your exact birth time!
Evolved
An evolved Sagittarius Mars has a deep ability to lead a life that is full of exploration and growth. Mars here really encourages this placement to lean into their sense of adventure, to constantly seek out new experiences and people, and be on the hunt for deeper knowledge in life. Their philosophical approach to life could be simply understanding the world through their travels. By seeing more of the world and interacting with others more often, they have a natural ability to expand their horizons and understand others well.
Unevolved
An unevolved Sagittarius Mars can be very restless and impulsive. As Mars naturally is an active placement, having Sagittarius be restless will highlight their want to not commit, and often jump from idea to idea before finishing their project. By under-committing to life around them, this could also cause conflict with others. This soul may grow to be frustrated with themselves for not being able to sit still and build something more long-term or not meet their goals.
