SAGITTARIUS

“If I can talk it, I have to walk it...” This may not actually come out of their very active mouth, but this is exactly how this Archer lives. If they’re going to say it, they’ll make sure their behaviour matches it. But does this make them some kind of knight in shining armour, trustworthy and sincere? Not exactly. It’s more that it makes them the ultimate trickster – naughty in the extreme, but honest to a fault, as well (they are absolutely full of paradoxes). For example, they will let people know they’re up to no good – they just won’t believe them when they outline the extent of their devilish plans. Then when they do actually follow through, they’ll all say they thought they must have been joking. (Take them at their word, folks!) But while they are very cheerful and funny, they are also absolutely serious, and committed to their (kooky) oath of craziness. If they promise outrage and chaos, House anarchy will follow.

So, watch out. For when they say they’re going to do something mad, or outrageous, or daring, they will not only meet your expectations, they could well exceed them. Okay, they could even shock us. I am expecting stories that will make our hair curl, tantrums that will make other Housemates cry, a sharp, lashing tongue that will be sparingly used, and a sense of occasion.

They are direct - they will say what they mean to say as soon as they have thought it, and the great thing is that their actions absolutely do back them up. It’s just that while I would certainly like to be around them, I would never ever want to be on the bad side of them.

But here’s the other thing. While they do have this rather ruthless side, they are also a person who has some strong action in their chart that suggests they do love harmony. Their actions will never be to promote fights and hurt and pain and dislike – their actions may well result in that, but that would never be their intent. They actually like to play mad pranks in order to be a kind of peacekeeper… but self-appointed peacekeepers, as we know, can often cause the greatest conflict.

One thing they will have trouble with from time to time is making up their mind… they are an expert prevaricator, because they can see the many sides within a situation… so I expect they will grapple from time to time with their friends are and just why they like them. In fact, they may not even know why they like someone – they just will. That will not only puzzle them, it will puzzle other people too.
