The Sagittarius Child

Benjamin is a Sagittarius. The original, Sun Sign, Linda Goodman Sagittarius (to be clear). I never considered his star sign until this afternoon. In fact I didn't even know that he was a Sagittarius until a few hours ago. And when I found out, I got a big giant knot in my chest as if someone told me I'd already lost him. I'm a sucker for Linda Goodman. Maybe I'm downright naive about it, but she has never lied to me, and I trust her more than most people I know.

So out came my book, and I had a little refresher read on the sign. I only know two Sagittarians and I don't have a good relationship history with either. One is my mother, and it took me about 20 years to understand her but we still fight all the time because we're both stubborn and emotional and that's probably the deadliest combination known to relationships.

So I want to tell you what Linda Goodman says about Sagittarian boys. But first a bit of name-throwing.
Famous Sagittarians: Beethoven, Walt Disney, Frank Sinatra and Mark Twain. (I know)

Here are some extracts that I love and others that scare the living shit out of me:

"He'll throw you up in the air in a moment of mad, impetuous exhilaration -and then forget to catch you"

"The idealistic enthusiasm and curiosity of a Sagittarian man is contagious"

"He looks beyond the external appearance of people for a truer, more intrinsic value"

"The sin of the S male is tactlessness and thoughtlessness. People who have been stung by his frank remarks may glare at him and feel like strangling him"

There was much much more, but it's 8 pages of Linda Goodman, so I'll finish up later.
