Slow Down, Sagittarius

Why Sagittarius needs to slow down once in a while…

You’re always moving because there’s always somewhere new to go, someone new to meet, and something new to see. Just reading your itinerary exhausts ordinary folks! You’re going at the speed of light, but are you getting anywhere? Are you running toward something or away from it? Is the perpetual motion hiding dissatisfaction with your life? Learn from Pisces and slow down. Drift with the current like a leaf in a lazy stream. Give yourself permission to set aside your to-do list. The world won’t end! You never know what will come to find you when you stop and wait.

Sagittarius, the Globetrotter

There’s a reason you´re the gypsy of the zodiac…

You’re a fearless free spirit who’s too restless for sedentary life. Spin the globe and you’re off to whichever spot your finger touches. Travel is one area where procrastination and a lack of planning could actually be a good thing—if you’re smart about it. Rather than nail down reservations ahead of time, blithely go where others fear to tread. Improvise. Leave the beaten path and see where you end up. Explore a wild place by moonlight and a city at dawn. Lunch at a tiny taverna because you like its name. Trips that go off without a hitch aren’t the ones you remember!

How to Heal a Sagittarius

Skip the pain killers—a Sag only needs this to heal…

Sore from your last workout, race, or cross-country hike? You probably hate the medicine-y smell of topical pain-relieving creams you get at the drugstore, but you can find a way to ease sore muscles right in your own kitchen.

Studies show that tart cherry juice is highly anti-inflammatory. Just sip two, ten-ounce glasses a day to relieve any damage. It even works before a strenuous workout. Try it before participating in a race or another event (that triathlon perhaps?) to stave off post-competition aches and pains!

Spice it Up, Sagittarius

Variety is the spice of Sagittarius´s sex life…

You yearn to live life to the fullest and experience all that the world has to offer. New and different? You’re there! Exotic locales? Bring ’em on! Boredom is a four-letter word, especially when it comes to sex. Impulsive, erotic, and romantic, you’re great in the sack! You’re a willing partner who’ll try anything once (or three times, if it’s really fun). How else will you know what you like? Just don’t drop a fetish bomb on a more traditional partner! Few can match your enthusiasm, adventure, and pure enjoyment. After all, every encounter is a learning experience, right?

Sophisticated Strands for Sagittarius

The most glamorous hair style for Sagittarius…

You’re always on the move, and probably living out of a suitcase! The last thing you need is a complicated hair-care routine or fussy style. For long hair, a pony can be functional and fabulous. Go from sporty to chic with glossy, smoothed-back hair. Secure above nape and wrap a strand around the elastic. Slip on a wide black headband for an upscale take on a workout go-to. For a glam look, knot the pony on top of your head into a loose ballerina bun. Slicked-back sophistication (try a deep middle part) works for short hair, too!

Unisex Scents for the Sagittarius

Don´t waste valuable time Sag, these are your best scents…

Unfettered and uncluttered, you want your beauty products multifunctional and simple. What could be simpler than a unisex scent both you and your partner can wear? Cognoscenti No. 16 combines green tomato leaf and leather. CK One melds bergamot, violet, pineapple, nutmeg, and musk in a time-tested fragrance. Le Sauvage is billed as a men’s fragrance, but touted for women, too, with its sophisticated blend of cardamom and citrus. And Carbone by Balmain, also for men, is snapped up by women who crave its tantalizing mix of ivy, fig, resin, vanilla, and vetiver. Smoldering and candy-licious, just like you!

Sagittarius, Beauteous Maximus

Your hips make you, Sagittarius…

Sagittarius rules the hips. Butts may not be the new boobs, as some suggest, but there’s no denying the sexiness of a cute tush! Beautify your booty with some glute bridges, plié squats, walking lunges, step-ups, and single-leg deadlifts. Mentally focusing on the glutes may help activate them even more. Stretch out tight psoas, the muscles that run from the lower back to the top of the thigh, with yoga, by moving from Downward Dog into Crescent Pose. Then flaunt your assets in skinny trousers, cutoff shorts, or a flirty mini with an edgy jacket.

Carry on, Sagittarius

Pick this up Sag…

You always have abag packed so you’ll be ready to go at a moment’s notice. It has to be utilitarian, but there’s nothing that says it has to be ugly! Find a functional and fashionable piece, big enough to carry all your essentials, that doesn’t look like an army rucksack. Pick a classic roomy shoulder tote or a structured sack for your personal electronics, beauty essentials, and change of clothes (in drip-dry, packable fabrics that won’t make you look like a Shar-Pei at your destination!), pockets for travel docs, and shoulder strap for hands-free carrying.

Try This Fitness Trick, Sagittarius

This key move will put Sags in better shape fast…

The kingdom of your ruler Jupiter includes health, and while he may not be the most romantic planet in the heavens (he has other gifts), you can combine fitness with a little one-on-one time to strengthen your bods and your relationship!

Try some circuit training. If you each pick two moves and both do all four, you can lift weights together, but go at your own speed. Do as many reps of each move as you can in one minute and keep it up for 15 minutes. You can challenge each other, so long as you don’t overdo it! Treat yourselves to smoothies at a juice bar afterward!

You Can Have it All, Sagittarius

You’re the sign that can have it all it all, Sagittarius!

You don’t have to sacrifice love for freedom if love is truly what you crave. A relationship doesn’t have to equal restriction. There’s a lot to be said for focusing your attention on one relationship rather than seeing how many you can shoehorn into a lifetime. Your true partner will understand your quest to explore, travel, and experience life. And when said partner isn’t with you, he or she will be waiting patiently for your return. Yes, wild horses running free are beautiful, but that doesn’t mean that all domesticated horses are unhappy!
