Nadir in Sagittarius

Nadir in Sagittarius means Sagittarius was at the lowest point of the chart, under the Earth, at the minute and place you were born. It is opposite the Midheaven and changes about every two hours, so it takes an exact birth time.

Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign. The nadir, or IC, is the point opposite the Midheaven: the part of the zodiac that was under the Earth, beneath your feet. It speaks of roots, home and what holds you up unseen.

Your roots

Roots that travel

Your foundation may be a horizon rather than a house. Perhaps home was open, full of ideas, beliefs or people passing through, or far from where the family began. In private you probably need space and the freedom to leave. Perhaps what holds you up, unseen, is a faith that the world is wide and that you will find your place in it wherever you go.
