Famous Sagittarians
Sagittarius is the sign of the long road and the big laugh. Famous Sagittarians tend to be remembered for freedom: people who went further than anyone expected, and said what they thought on the way.
The Sun is in Sagittarius for anyone born between about 22 November and 21 December (the exact day changes slightly from year to year). Sagittarius is a fire sign ruled by Jupiter, the planet of growth, faith and good luck, and it shows in famous lives as optimism, frankness, humour and a love of travel. Many famous Sagittarians had careers that crossed borders, or started again somewhere new.
The charts first: these are the Sagittarians whose birth time is on record and rated AA or A, so the Moon, the Rising sign and the houses can be trusted. Three of them, Tina Turner, Jimi Hendrix and Bette Midler, found their first real audience far from where they grew up. Below them are more famous Sagittarians by date of birth, which is all you need to know a Sun sign.
