Although that tidbit might separate Sagittarius from Aries and Leo, one thing that bonds them is that they are passionate and unpredictable, just like the element they represent! But, along with that passion comes recklessness. And boy are we Sagittarians known for it! Reckless not just with our actions, but with our emotions, too. We feel things very deeply and our hearts are a permanent fixture on our sleeves. Sagittarius: A Hopeless RomanticCommitted relationships are our thing. Us Sagittarians don't play when it comes to following our heart. Once we fall for someone, we are all in. We are lovers at heart and our best selves come alive when in love. Sagittarius shine when the romance is hot and heavy. But even when the lust falls away and replaced with steady comfort, we are extremely loyal. Love is an adventure for us. And our perfect partner (is there really such a thing?) is someone who will always make us laugh, think, and challenge ourselves. We love freedom and have a wild spirit. So, nothing turns us off more that being tied down, censored or controlled. Don't tame the flame! You'll get scorched in the process of doing so. Domesticity isn't really our thing! But now that you know all of this, falling in love with a Sagittarius is quite possibly the greatest experience you'll ever know! Our love is hard to duplicate. Our passionate fire sign is wrapped within a sweet romantic flair that'll knock you off of your feet! Sagittarius: Jupiter Rules
Sagittarius: The CentaurHalf-animal, half-man. The Centaur is a mythological creature that usually represent wisdom, deep thinking and always searching for the bigger picture. But like the bestial side of the Centaur, Sagittarians can't be tamed! Sagittarius: Our Own Worst EnemyDreamer. Idealist. Escapist. Values privacy. Acts first.
These are just some of the characteristics that a Sagittarius can claim. And while on the outside, they seem like wholesome virtues, these are also aspects that can hinder our personal growth.

One thing we can all conclude about the aforementioned contributions is that the ancient Greeks were a passionate civilization/people. They also lived very meaningful lives! That is evident by observing the ruins all throughout Eastern Europe and Asia and the time commitment that they put towards exploring human reason. Which means, if you ever come across a piece of literature that voices the notion that the Greek philosophy of Stoicism is the practice of extinguishing all emotions, ditch it! This lesser known Greek philosophy, Stoicism — as you might have guessed by now — is what Health Like Me is all about today! Stoicism: What is it?Stoicism is the view that destructive emotions such as suffering are only harmful when they keep us from seeing the world as is, acting irrationally, and thinking and living well. It is not a goal of Stoicism to completely diminish all emotion, but rather a way of life that teaches us and keeps us from fighting against life's inevitably harsh times, and the emotions that come with it. And by doing so, we keep our freedom to make our own choices. "The Stoics saw gratitude as a kind of medicine (and) that saying 'Thank You' for every experience was the key to mental health." Embrace All EmotionsKnow that having and being able to recognize emotions is part of what makes us human! Suppressing our emotions will only make them worse. Even the tough ones to understand we should embrace because we only build on our own character when we do. We are also able to build an inner calm when we practice Stoicism. Healthy Application
Connect to BiggerConnecting to something bigger than oneself is another aspect of the Stoics. You practice Stoicism so that the worries and anxieties of daily life seem to fall away! The Stoics saw gratitude as a kind of medicine (and) saying 'thank you' for every experience was the key to mental health.
Find something bigger than yourself — whether it is within nature an ideal — and get in touch with it every single day!
It doesn't necessarily need to be a secret, it can be a trend, workout, or lifestyle choice! And go as far back as you'd like when thinking.
Be sure to share your answer down below in the comment section! One thing that I have never truly been able to understand is how people can go from relationship to relationship, back-to-back. Do they take any time at all to recover or grieve? What is the tie frame taken to process what went wrong and how things can be changed going into the next one? Also, what about the amount of time you spent devoted to learning and being with another person? I'm not saying your relationship should drain you. On the contrary, the best relationships gives you time and space away from your partner while still thriving! Which is why if your relationship comes to an end, you are still standing strong on both feet with your self still in tact. So, the whole jumping from relationship to relationship never made sense because you aren't giving yourself time to discover who you are alone. Also, you're depriving yourself of having a Singleversary! No need to go into detail about what the word Singleversary means. You get it. So, despite our society's negative connotation with singledom (no matter what the articles say), throwing on your party hat and blasting that happily single playlist you've been steadily putting together is quite possibly the best thing you can experience! Now gather around while Health Like Me dives into the joys and necessity of celebrating your singleversary! Yay!
Celebrating your singleversary means self-reflection. Finding out who you are at different stages of your life is the ultimate goal!
How to Properly Celebrate itStarting a new book, taking an ACV bath, picking up a new hobby, working out, traveling alone.... the list could go on and on! Embracing being single is a right of passage that needs to be a right of passage we all need to make time for, no matter what our sex is! You might find a hidden talent or revisit something you may have forgotten you once loved. And those are spectacular finds indeed!
Don't limit yourself whilst celebrating. Do it all! You will be so surprised at what you discover within yourself and you will be so much more open and adamant to maintaining your autonomy once you find yourself in a mature relationship. |
