Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign which is known as the sign of wisdom. The ruling planet of Sagittarius is Jupiter, which also indicates wisdom. It is also considered as the most benefic planet in Vedic astrology. Sagittarius is a mutable sign, and the placement of Rahu in this sign makes the natives double minded. This is a good position in relation to spiritual liberation and higher learning. Hence, these natives tend to focus more on their education by aiming to achieve better and learn more. These natives will be naturally inclined towards the spiritual pursuits in life.
Rahu in this sign bestows its natives with spiritual significances but these natives are prone to falsehood and corruption. Hence, these natives like to showcase themselves as spiritual figures but innately, they do not have a strong spiritual foundation. These natives tend to face a lot of issues with their fathers. This placement tends to make these relatives detached from their relatives in a hostile manner. This placement also enables these natives to travel to foreign destinations. These natives tend to actively participate in discussions. Despite putting in lots of efforts, these natives will not get the results they desire.
Rahu in Sagittarius natives are extremely courageous and ambitious by nature. Since Sagittarius denotes independence, these natives will have an increased desire to be more independent. Hence, they tend to become rebellious and confront the boring, old fashioned and traditional systems. Sagittarius indicates destiny, faith and future while its ruling planet Jupiter is the planet of optimism. The placement of Rahu enhances these traits greatly. Hence, the individuals born under this placement tend to develop excessive optimism within their souls. If Jupiter is dignified, then their natural propensity for over-optimism will benefit them immensely. It tends to bring in more happiness and better faith in the future. These natives will have an unshakeable belief that everything will turn out for good in the future even when the present circumstances look bleak. These natives will have an expanded faith which when combined with optimism tends to improve the overall quality of their lives. Since these natives are filled with positive emotions, they will experience improved vitality even under difficult circumstances. These natives will also be endowed with an increased sense of righteousness. However, if Jupiter is undignified, it indicates negative effects of over-optimism like illusions, blind faith, and unrealistic hope. These natives will have weak judgement due to which they will not be able to take necessary steps to improve their condition. They will be relying on an unrealistic hope that everything will become better eventually. In the end, it increases stress and depression in these natives due to ignoring and delaying the issues which will grow and expand in their lives.
The expansive effect of Rahu in Sagittarius also causes increased confidence. Hence, these natives tend to be overconfident at times. When there is a dignified Jupiter, the overconfidence will prove to be beneficial since it will make the natives judge the situations correctly and behave appropriately. This happens because a dignified Jupiter endows its natives with higher wisdom which ensures that their judgment remains realistic. Overconfidence can motivate these natives perform difficult tasks and goals. During this process, these natives will often find it difficult to complete the tasks after initiating them. However, their faith and optimism will greatly support them during these times and also help them in overcoming any obstacles. However, an undignified Jupiter indicates the inability to take on difficult tasks and projects due to wrong estimation of their abilities and competencies. A weak Jupiter also indicates that these natives will not have enough faith and higher wisdom needed in order to attain success in their undertakings thus increasing their chances of failure.
Rahu in Sagittarius natives tend to be extremely skilled in efficient planning and have excellent foresightedness. These natives are endowed with the ability to grasp higher wisdom extremely quickly, efficiently and often without any academic studies. However, if Jupiter is undignified, then it indicates that these natives will resort to using shortcuts and higher wisdom in unethical ways in order to attain social status or high position.
Jupiter is considered as the planet of wealth and abundance as per the principles of ancient Vedic astrology. Hence, this placement of Rahu potentially increases wealth and fortune as well. However, as Rahu is considered as the master of illusion and deception is involved, this placement might be a dangerous placement for its natives. These natives tend to become focussed on wealth to such an extent that they will end up forgetting ethics and righteousness in the process. If Jupiter is dignified in this position, then a strong sense of morals and ethics will help these natives to maintain level-headedness and balance between spiritual and worldly desires. However, an undignified Jupiter indicates that these natives will become extremely materialistic, vain, greedy and deceptive.
