Fun-loving Sag, for all your wild and worldly ways, you take breakups
hard. No matter how lighthearted you seem,
you're a sensitive soul whose feelings bruise easily. Although commitment
can freak out your free-spirited sign, when you're in, you're in --
at least for a while. Along the way, you'll break many hearts -- but
somehow, you're never prepared for YOURS to be broken!
Lucky for you, Sagittarius is a symbolized by the Archer, who shoots arrow after arrow until hitting the bullseye. You always bounce back and try again. It's that period between the breakup and the recovery that's so fraught with drama. Sagittarius rules the higher mind, so stay in yours by meditating, reading inspirational books, or taking classes (Sag is the student sign).
Philosophical Sagittarius has a gift for seeing every side of an issue. You may rush to forgive your partner before s/he has even apologized. Or, because you're the sign of the gambler, you may have taken a foolish chance with your relationship and sealed its fate. As the zodiac's wisdom bearer, take what you learned and teach others to avoid your mistakes (that's how we became astrologers in the first place!). In the meantime, try this:

Abandon all hope.
Sagittarius is the optimist sign, and you get hung up on hope like nobody's
business. Once you put on those rose-colored glasses, you can turn Johnny
Loser into your future husband. (Britney Spears is a Sag. Two words: Kevin
Federline.) As the sign that also rules honesty, Sags need a dose of reality.
Was he smiling at you? (Nope; it was just gas from his Mexican Fiesta lunch
special.) Did he really mean it when he said, "Maybe our paths will cross
again someday"? (Nah, he was just trying to exit kindly.) Our fellow Sag
sage Bill once advised Ophi, "Let go, and if he comes back, you'll know
it was real."
Wouldn't you know, Bill was right! But by the time Ophi's ex returned, she
realized that he wasn't the best match for her after all, and moved on.
Have a fling for fun.
Sagittarius is a physical sign that rules adventure. Get your groove
back with a *safe,* just-for-kicks fling. Your sign rules
abundance, so indulge! To avoid a fatal attraction, be 100% honest with
your playmates (Sag is the zodiac's truth-teller). Don't promise a relationship
-- just be totally upfront all the way.
Sagittarius is an ethical sign, but don't let your morals interfere with
your right to good, clean fun.
Get out of town.
Sagittarius is the sign of the traveler, and nothing restores your positive
outlook like a good vacation. (As Sagittarians, we always do
our best thinking on the road!) No need to spend
thousands on an exotic island destination. Go visit your friend in Iowa for
a low-budget escape. Knowing you, you'll find the hidden treasures there,
or just enjoy some good outdoor fun. Bring a few books, since Sags love to
read. Vacation energy puts your focus back on the big picture, where it belongs.
If you can't get away, tap into the spirit of travel:
take a day trip, eat at a restaurant in another part of town, buy hotel-quality
sheets for your bed, pick up brochures at a travel agency and start planning
a getaway.
