Sagittarius’ symbol is the mythical Centaur also know as the Archer with a shooting arrow pointed skyward.

The Greek myth goes as follows – the Centaur was Chiron, the son of Saturn, well known for his healing and medicinal abilities, as well as vast knowledge.

Chiron as highly respected among the other mythological characters, unlike other Centaurs who were reckless and aggressive.

He was known for kindness, deep understanding and great archery skills.

So much so that it was Chiron instructing Achilles how to defeat the Hydra.

Accidentally he was poisoned by the Hydra’s blood and, as immortal, translated to the sky to represent the constellation of the Archer.

The Centaur is shooting upwards, with eyes fixed to the distance.

That symbolizes the nature of this sign, as people born in the Zodiac sign of Sagittarius always try to look at the bigger picture, and rarely worry about the here and now.
