The centaur archer
Sagittarius is a centaur with a bow, half man and half horse. It has been identified in several ways. One is Chiron, the wise centaur who taught heroes such as Achilles and Jason, and who gave up his immortality to stop suffering after being wounded by an arrow of Heracles. Another is Crotus, a satyr credited with inventing archery.
From Earth, the constellation points toward the centre of the Milky Way, the part of the sky with the most stars in view. Its ruler is Jupiter. Tradition links the sign with travel and the wish to learn.
Myths come in several versions. This is one of the most widespread.
