Ho(me)roscope: The home of Sagittarius

Home of Sagittarius (11.23 – 12.21)

Sagittarius is the ninth sign of the zodiac. The half-human, half-horse creature is characterized by an exciting duality: a wise philosopher and lifelong student at the same time, who is able to explore and travel the entire universe (both in body and soul), experiences a lot during his adventures, but almost certainly does not know it (f) where is the line between healthy courage and unreasonable boldness. In their mentality, the representatives of this optimistic, cheerful sign show similarities with the fun-loving, shield-chasing, earthly pleasure-seeking creatures of Greek mythology, the fauns and the centaurs. Most of the cheeky hybrid creatures can be read about as protagonists of wine bacchanalia or as shepherds herding bulls. However, the figure of Niilas may have been inspired by an exceptional centaur who stood out among his peers: a kind-hearted, intelligent, knowledgeable teacher who, according to legends, trained the minds of many deities and legendary heroes, and even steeled their muscles by developing their physical strength.

Sagittarius is ruled by the giant planet Jupiter, so it's no wonder that it makes you thirsty for knowledge. He is especially interested in foreign languages ​​- with their help, the world opens up more easily in front of him, and his horizons broaden. He is receptive to the new, the unknown, anything that has yet to be explored: his thirst for adventure is insatiable. It requires mental and physical challenges that multiply the energies generated by the fire element. He is constantly looking ahead, scanning the distant horizon - as soon as he has achieved his current goal, he is already preparing for the next one. You need freedom, to dictate the course of your life yourself, not necessarily according to generally applicable rules. He is the one who without further ado switches to an off-grid lifestyle, one might say: "goes off the map". He chooses a dilapidated farm in need of renovation as his residence, where he produces the necessary electricity himself, and also uses other alternative solutions: he drills a well, installs a tile stove, installs solar panels, grows vegetables, and plants an orchard. Of course, you also feel great (especially when you're young) in the city, where you can hustle and bustle to your heart's content, enroll in various courses, make friends - and from where you can reach any destination.
Traveling is good for his restlessness - no matter where he wanders, he returns home with interesting objects (he never arrived, and he's about to leave again).

His home is thus clearly impressive and has character: its atmosphere is not everyday, as it faithfully reflects the personality of the host. It is colorful not only figuratively, but also literally: crimson, purple, medium and dark blue are dominant (the majestic colors of Jupiter, the Roman chief god), with which the warm palette of fiery oranges and brilliant golden yellows creates an exciting contrast. These go well with tanned leather, suet wood, coarser woven fabrics, ceramics, shiny pewter and copper.

Nyilas' furniture is much-used, time-worn, patinated pieces, their small or large imperfections are more valuable in the eyes of their users than defects. That is why the wabi sabi, rustic, retro, industrial or farmhouse style can be ideal - even better if none of them prevails clearly, rather an eclecticism emerges that rarefies its counterpart, just as the world-traveling resident piles curiosities upon curiosities.

Books (travel guides, antique encyclopedias, lexicons, botanical and zoological adverbs), impressive globes, photo machines, photographs to be cataloged, souvenirs, and trophies from sports competitions are waiting to be put in their final place. Their owner has neither patience nor time for shelf styling and similar meticulous activities. The concept of order covers the (to him) transparent chaos - he does not even deny this. His humor is brilliant, if the tabloids wrote about him, they would call him the best party face. His casualness and optimism are attractive, a kind of real, in-your-face kid - an "enfant terrible" fit for a novel.
His desire for freedom is also manifested in his interiors: he is happy if his windows are large, he does not frame them or cover them with curtains - his eyes can explore the panorama unhindered, his thoughts can gallop freely.
Its outdoor areas are actually continuations of the rooms. Your pets can walk in and out.

He is equally fond of wild representatives of the fauna. With his faithful dog in tow, he rides out whenever he can - if not to hunt, as we might suspect from the bow he holds in the hand of the ticket's symbol, but simply to enjoy the beauties of nature, which is so dear to him.
He also likes to decorate his living areas with landscapes depicting endless plains, forests, and fields - so the walls around him almost fall down, and he doesn't feel that he is shackled.
Let's catch him between two of his outings, he'll entertain us with pleasure - perhaps we don't even have to hide our surprise (because we're not even surprised), if he's barely finished his entertaining report, he's already tying his boot laces and ready to leave the tap-pap...
