Sun in Sagittarius: what it says about Jimi Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix's Sagittarius Sun is fire made audible. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter — the planet of expansion, excess, and the quest to push beyond all boundaries. Hendrix didn't just play the guitar; he made it do things no one thought possible, expanding the instrument's sonic range into psychedelic, distorted, feedback-drenched new territory. The Sagittarian love of adventure and risk-taking is evident in his willingness to experiment live, to improvise, to follow inspiration wherever it led. The dark side of Jupiter is also present: the excess that contributed to his early death at 27.

Astrology is of particular interest to the psychologist, since it contains a sort of psychological experience which we call projected - this means that we find the psychological facts as it were in the constellations. This originally gave rise to the idea that these factors derive from the stars, whereas they are merely in a relation of synchronicity with them. I admit that this is a very curious fact which throws a peculiar light on the structure of the human mind. .... Carl G. Jung in 1947 in a letter to prof. B.V. Raman
