MUTABLE FIRE SIGN
RULING PLANET: Jupiter
COLOR: Deep Purple
KEYWORDS: Honesty, Idealism, Adventure
Sagittarians are independent idealists who make friends wherever they go… which can be anywhere because they tend to have adventurous, free spirits. They love pushing the envelope and expanding their horizons and are ready to pack their bags and move on if something isn’t working. Their optimism and and honesty makes them easy to be around and tend to be very intellectual and philosophical, they value education and learning experiences where they can exercise their brain! They love to travel and explore or take risks for these reasons.
Sagittarians are usually out-spoken and can’t help but tell the truth, even if it hurts. But don’t take offense, they’re just calling it as they see it! They aim to inspire and to help others, they have a great attitude for it and are truly sincere and have a talent at seeing the bigger picture in life. As a mutable fire sign, change from a boring routine is imminent and the grass tends to be greener on the other side… they need to feel free and flexible, they will not do well when feeling too stuck. These are strongly independent and fun-loving individuals who can show anyone the lighter, brighter side of life.
Shopping for Sagittarius? Well… booking a trip or buying travel gear should be first on your list! Or start to think about what they like and how they like to continue their education… a cooking class? a writing workshop? that new fun spin class in town? They love experiences and they’d love you to join in the fun with them too! They love to be on the go, so get them moving and hop along for the ride if you can.
Fun-loving Sagittarius would love to spend a night with good food and wine, laughing and exchanging ideas and stories with everyone! A party big or small would be much appreciated. Candles to set a tone and soft music too… something you don’t have to scream over. Maybe when it gets later… you can crank it up and dance the night away!
Since they love to be on-the-go… cupcakes were a must in the Sagittarius inspired birthday recipe! So, Happy Birthday, Sagittarius – for your season: Carrot Cupcakes with Maple Meringue Buttercream! Sweet, a little spicy, and far from boring… easy to grab and go to the next adventure.
makes approx. 9 standard sized cupcakes or one 8 inch cake

*If you have any issues with the buttercream… i.e., it’s too runny or becomes curdled.. it’s likely due to temperature issues. This happens all the time… do not fear – watch these videos for each scenario. It has saved me and quite frankly is magic. Or science… either way it works.

I really appreciate your professional approach. These are pieces of very useful information that will be of great use for me in future.
What you’re saying is completely true. I know that everybody must say the same thing, but I just think that you put it in a way that everyone can understand. I’m sure you’ll reach so many people with what you’ve got to say.
