As a Sagittarius born on December 17th, you are well known for your charisma and showmanship. While others prefer to be in the background, you are most comfortable being the center of attention. More times than not, you seek out the center stage, where you can impress others with your charm and whit. In all your dealings, you are friendly and warm. Your sociable qualities and performer mentality make you a highly sought after friend and companion.

Fire is the elemental pair of your sign and of all the zodiac signs, you are the only one to have a mutable relationship with the element. When you adaptability and fiery communication are considered, fire's influence over your personality becomes obvious. Fire's power expands to the depths of your being, as you take on challenges with passion and fortitude. Embracing fire's positive qualities will play a key role in future successes, as long as you avoid the impatience and impulsiveness that accompanies your elemental influence.

The Sagittarius is under the planetary ruler of Jupiter, but as you were born in the third Decan, or part of the sign, you also receive a helping of the Sun's unique planetary power. Jupiter's influence ties into your adventure and truth seeking qualities, but it is the Sun that connects to your individuality, willpower and creativity. Your combination of planetary influences makes you more of a natural risk taker than the other Sagittarius Decans. If the possibility of success is on the horizon, you fearlessly look at any possibilities of failure. While this is undoubtedly one of your greatest strengths, this can become a weakness if you do not think things through fully. In love, find a partner that shares in your sense of adventure, but is possibly more calculated in their risk taking.

A gifted communicator and determined, your natural abilities will provide you with several career opportunities. Your strong mind may lead you to a career in writing, science or research. Similarly, your creativity and need for adventure may lead you on a unique path, which was the case for cake designer, Duff Goldman, who was also born on December 17th. A natural performer, you may find the film or television appealing, much like Milla Jovovich, another of your celebrity birthday twins.
