The three decans of Sagittarius
The three decans of Sagittarius are the Eight of Wands, the Nine of Wands and the Ten of Wands. Born early in the sign, you might read the Eight of Wands: things move fast, so act promptly and keep communication open. Mid-sign may suit the Nine of Wands, tired but nearly there, drawing on resilience. Late in the sign, the Ten of Wands asks what you are carrying that you could set down.

You are hopeful, adventurous and honest. You like to learn, and you help others see the bigger picture. Your humour lifts a room.
Challenges
Temperance asks for moderation, which does not always come naturally. You may take on too much, or speak before you think.
In love
In love you want freedom, laughter and a partner who shares your curiosity. You are honest and warm. Remember that staying present can be its own adventure.
At work
You thrive in work with variety, learning, travel or teaching. A sense of purpose keeps you going. Pick your projects with care, because the Ten of Wands warns about taking on too many.
