The Dhanu jataka is an incurable optimist. They can see a possibility even in the most improbable of situations. This is actually symbolized by the arrow of thought that is always pointed upwards. They always tend to look at the brighter side of the life and even encourage others to do the same. It is also an interesting aspect to note that the Dhanu's honesty lands them in a soup almost to the point of being a fault!

Signs of people born under the Dhanu rashi

An Extrovert and Independent

The Dhanu can prove to be a very good companion. They are usually outgoing and extrovert and prefer to stay in a cheerful mood. This makes them likable by all but, if they happen to feel dominated by anyone, they rebel and stubborn. They love their own independence and like to enjoy life in its own pace. Clipping the wings of a Sagittarian can turn them into a completely different individual.

They are outspoken and out right honest in their approach and this continues in the manner in which they express themselves too. They speak out their mind regarding others without even realizing that this might hurt the feelings of the person before him at that instant.

Sports Lover

The Dhanu loves to ride. They enjoy sports a lot and find outdoor sports like hiking, trekking and even running very exciting.

The Eternal Optimist

The Dhanu is a seeker of knowledge and wisdom. If they feel themselves restricted, they use their knowledge and try to seek out options. They are eternally hopeful. This basically acts as an inspiration that helps them to attain success. The key planet Jupiter helps the Sagittarius to see even the smallest of opportunities to appear larger than life. The Jupiter acts as a sort of magnifying glass. The Dhanu ends up taking life as an adventure and they hold a strong belief in something that is greater than them selves.

The seeker of the Best

The key planet of the Dhanu is the Jupiter. Since it is the largest planet of our solar system, it acts as a representation of expansive action. This makes Dhanu love the big, the best and the infinite. This acts as a pointer to the next aspect of Dhanu. As it is never always right to have anything too much, the Dhanu actually falls prey to the natural characteristic of Jupiter, to overspend and over indulge.

Fire acts as Motivator

The key element of the Dhanu is fire. It never faces depletion and continuously gives light and heat. It allows others to feed on its warmth. The Dhanu is unpredictable just as the fire is not itself aware of its next move. It lives in the moment and burns itself in the available fuel without any forethought. It is the survival instinct and the intuition that it solely relies on. The most positive attribute o the fire in the Sagittarius is that it is warming and not hot. This is explained by the fact that the Jupiter is far off from the sun. The fire acts more as a direction provider and inspiration that motivates the mind to reach out to the unexplored wilderness around.
