Known as one of the largest constellations in the universe, which can be seen from almost anywhere on the planet, the Constellation Sagittarius can be seen more clearly in the southern hemisphere during autumn, winter and spring, and in the north during summer nights.
This spectacular constellation is represented by a centaur, and it keeps millions of stars and objects from the sky inside of it. According to scientists, that is the direction of the center of the galaxy.
In Greek mythology this constellation is represented by the image of centaur Chiron, a mythical being full of wisdom, experience and knowledge about the secrets of the universe. Born from the relationship between Kronos and nymph Philyra, he is half-human and half-horse, because his father transformed himself into a horse to escape notice, and that was the result.
Considered immortal, he was a great teacher who had followers such as: Castor Pollux, Ulysses, among others. He was wounded with an arrow which had been dipped in the blood of the Hydra from Lerna. That caused him an unbearable pain, so he decided to give up his immortality not to live with such pain forever. So, Zeus put him among the stars in the sky, turning him into the constellation we know today.
This group of stars is considered very special, because it is the only one that is completely crossed by the Milky Way. Antares is part of a small group of stars that are the brightest in the night sky, and that is specifically where Sagittarius points its arrow at.
However, constellations do not necessarily have a special relation with the meaning of signs. A sign can have its own characteristics that are focused on the planet that governs it. Sagittarius is represented by a zodiac sign that goes from November 23 to December 21.
Sagittarius is the ninth sign of the zodiac; it is governed by Jupiter. In astrology, it is said that the people born under this sign generally like to explore the world, observing everything around them and learning more and more from the things that happen to them on their journey.
Accordingly, Sagittarius women constantly seek to expand their thoughts, vision and behaviors to carry out each of the plans they want to achieve in order grow inside and outside.
For astrology believers, many of the people born under the sign of Sagittarius share similar characteristics to those signaled by mythology regarding the definition of the constellation. Although scientifically unproven, there is a strong relationship between the date of birth, the signs, the constellation of the sign and how all these factors influence people’s lives.
