PLAYLIST: Sagittarius

Sagittarius season is upon us again and as always, they’re bound to thrive (and likely will let you know that they are). To celebrate The Archer’s moment to shine, we’ve cranked out eight songs representing some of their best and worst personality traits.

Positive Traits: Smart, Caring, Deep, Honest and Wild

Negative Traits: Impatient, Careless, Boastful, Attention Seeking and Brutal

Famous Sagittarius: Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Jay-Z, Sia, Britney, Spears, DJ Khaled, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, Rita Orta, Vance Joy and Ludwig Van Beethoven.

“Party In The USA” – Miley Cyrus

Personality Trait: Adventurous Traveler

Travel equals freedom for The Archer, so don’t expect them to stick around when the universe piles on. Find them wielding a suitcase in one hand while scanning Expedia with the other whenever things get to be a little too heavy. Not down to join them on their spontaneous escape to a remote island off the coast of a country you’ve never heard of? That’s fine…your Sagittarius isn’t looking to invite you anyway. They’re just fine traveling alone and will be on a plane before you finish googlemapping Lesotho.

Bonus Sagittarius Fact: Miley references Jay-Z (Dec. 4) and Britney Spears (Dec. 2) in “Party In The USA” and both are card carrying members of the cult of Sagittarius.

“Truth Hurts” – Lizzo

Personality Trait: Honest

Honesty is a Sagittarius specialty. No other sign is quite as brutally honest and committed to the truth. While the truth can hurt, as Queen Lizzo has taught us all, the trait demands respect.

“I Owe You Nothing” – Seinabo Sey

Personality Trait: Independent

Fiercely independent, you aren’t looking to serve or please anyone but yourself. Having a great community of people is important for every sign, but for the most part a Sagittarius is happy to go at it on their own, and certainly won’t be caught being a follower.

Super Sag Lyrics:  “I owe you nothing / I be myself, I ain’t frontin’’ and “You think that I’m gon’ follow blindly / Why you always have to try me?” Need we say more?

“Where Is Her Head” – The National

Personality Trait: Deep Thinker

Walking (or speed walking) through life, the classic Sagittarius teeters between being a deep thinker and being careless and impatient. Knowing there are far profound complexities to our world, Sags can get lost in thought. Don’t be surprised if you see your Sag bestie completely engrossed in a book with their head somewhere else. Just as a Sag loves adventure, they love the wandering feeling of pondering something new.

“Ruby” – Strand of Oaks

Personality Trait: Storyteller

While this might not be the first trait that comes to mind when thinking of our Sagittarius friends, it shouldn’t be overlooked. With their curiosity and sense of adventure, they can wonderfully spin words into a carefully crafted story. Their charisma and warm personality makes everyone lean in to hear the next thing come out of their mouth. Timothy Showalter (Strand of Oaks) may be a Cancer, but his storytelling ability is stunning, and analogous to the classic Sagittarius.

Happy Birthday Middle Child – Palmyra Del Ran w/ Debbie Harry

Personality Trait: Attention Seeking

Don’t be fooled by all of the things Sags love in life. The truth is, these things are simply masking their pain, as they avoid the reality of everyday activities that they’d rather not deal with and their daily struggle that they are ultimately always feeling alone. Like any middle child, they feel overlooked and are quietly seeking the approval of their peers.
