Sagittarius

Sagittarius (the Archer) November 23rd - December 21stSagittarius is the 9th sign of the zodiac, represented as a Centaur loosing an arrow. The Centaur is Crotus, the son of Pan and Eupheme who was nurse to the Muses. Sagittarian Crotus is often confused with the famous Cheiron, king of the Centaurs and tutor to Apollo's son, Asclepius, the god of healing, but Cheiron's constellation is Centaurus - although Centaurus is sometimes thought to be Pholus, the son of Pan-like Silenus and a wood nymph.

Sciatica and rheumatism, especially of the hips and thighs, is the bugbear of many Sagittarians.

The best remedy is perhaps an understanding and more pragmatic partner.
