The Sun has moved astrologically into the sign of Sagittarius, the Archer, which is associated with the planet Jupiter.

No matter your Sun sign, this Sagittarian time of year features competitive activities of all sorts, generosity and warmth of spirit, lots of socialization, journeys or other explorations that frequently open you up to new ideas or new experiences, and unexpected outbursts of passion (good or bad) that usually do not indicate long term feelings or states of mind.  Negatively, it can be a time where meanness, pettiness, and stinginess appear in people, where humans can suddenly be revealed to be incredibly self-serving and egotistical, and some very grand delusions may become obvious.  You may be confronted with the knowledge that you have been used or that you have been using others.  Gambling and risky behavior is more prominent at this time...though the success of that choice is not guaranteed.

The Sagittarii were actually horse-mounted archers of the ancient world, and thus the frequent idea that the creature and constellation Sagittarius is a Centaur.  The most skilled and feared mounted archers were the ancient Parthians, notorious for appearing to be in retreat, luring the enemy to follow, and then twisting their bodies around in the saddle to fire a fatal shot: the "Parthian Shot."  From this comes the familiar expression the "parting shot," dealt cruelly and adeptly after a conversation is thought finished.

   

The main festival is the Maimakteria, where we prayed to Zeus Maimaktes ("The Blustering Zeus") in his aspect as the lord of winds, to be kind as we entered into our winter season. May there be only warmth and happiness on the breeze for you.
