Sagitarios

Sagitários is the Portuguese plural form used to refer to Sagittarius in both astronomy and astrology, and to people born under the sign. The name comes from the Latin Sagittarius, meaning archer. In Western astrology, Sagitários are associated with traits such as optimism, curiosity, and a love of freedom. The Sun is said to be in Sagitário roughly from November 22 to December 21 each year, though exact dates can vary between tropical and sidereal systems.

Astrometrically, Sagitário is also the name of a large constellation that lies along the ecliptic. It contains the center of the Milky Way and, at its core, the supermassive black hole known as Sagittarius A. The region hosts several bright deep-sky objects, including the Lagoon Nebula (M8), the Trifid Nebula (M20), and the Omega Nebula (M17), as well as the globular cluster M22. Among its brightest stars are Kaus Australis (Epsilon Sagittarii) and Nunki (Sigma Sagittarii). The area is rich in star-forming regions and interstellar material and is a frequent subject of galactic studies.

In cultural and observational contexts, Sagitário is the Latin-based name used in many languages for the constellation, while Sagitários also denotes people born under the sign in astrology. The sign's dates are approximately November 22 to December 21 in the tropical zodiac, with sidereal systems shifting dates somewhat. The constellation is a prominent feature of the southern sky and is often depicted as the archer in mythological and artistic traditions.
