Sagittarius in Esoteric Astrology

Sagittarius at the Personality Level

Sagittarius seeks a goal and moves directly toward it -- exoterically ruled by Jupiter, oriented toward growth, faith, and expansion.

Sagittarius at the Soul Level

Sagittarius is esoterically ruled by the Earth. Sagittarius's Labor of Hercules is Killing the Stymphalian Birds -- clearing away scattered, predatory mental habits so aim can become truly one-pointed and directed toward the higher goal.

Earth itself carries Ray 3 -- see the Seven Rays explained for what each Ray means. Read the full myth behind this Labor: The Labors of Hercules.

Sagittarius at the Hierarchical Level

Sagittarius is hierarchically ruled by Mars. The one-pointed aim Sagittarius masters personally becomes, at this level, aim directed and fought for on behalf of the group's own advance toward its goal.
