Sagittarius: Playlist Prescription
© 2022 by Adam Rankin
Rx #09 Sagittarius Energy
The great philosopher & explorer of the zodiac, Sagittarius is on a quest for the meaning of life through experience & adventure. This energy is fun, fiery & restless, always seeking the next venture to expand its world view. Ruled by Jupiter, the planet of good luck & fortune, Sagittarius is optimistic, open minded & willing to try anything once. Guided by a need for freedom & independence above all else, this expansive energy is here to experience all that life has to offer.
To embody Sagittarius at its best is to throw caution to the wind saying yes to whatever comes your way. It’s speaking your mind & not thinking twice about it. It’s living for the moment & having confidence in the future. It’s not getting caught up in the emotions or expectations of others, but following your own path. It’s seeking understanding through experience & soaking up every drop of wisdom you can garner.
Playlist Prescription (Rx)
Below is a playlist to accompany you in tapping into Sagittarius vibes during this season-or whenever you need some of this potent energy in your life. Obviously I can’t condense the entirety of a complex zodiac sign into 12 songs, so think of this as a small capsule of energy to try on for an hour and see if it can move you into embodying the archetype of Sagittarius.
NOTE: These aren’t songs I think people with signs in Sagittarius will necessarily like or identify with, nor do I think it sums them up in any way-our musical tastes & personalities are much too unique and complex for that! This is about music I feel evokes the essence of this sign and I hope it helps you then experience it within yourself.

About Playlist Rx
Playlist Prescription (Rx) is a project about embodying archetypal energy. I’m fascinated by the patterns & crossover of symbols within systems of universal understanding, like tarot, astrology, and the cycles of nature, and how these archetypes have been used throughout history to understand ourselves and weave the important stories of our world across culture, religion and time.
I’ve created playlists ever since I can remember to move me through an experience, to shift my emotional state, or to embody a certain energy. Delivering these archetypes through music feels like the perfect to way to offer a personalized journey for you to try on the energy for yourself and see what it feels like for you.
I’m excited to team up with my brother, artist & photographer, Adam Rankin, to create the imagery for each sign.
The Zodiac Edition
In this edition, I’m focusing on astrology and the 12 signs of the zodiac. We all contain the energy of each of the 12 zodiac signs within us. Depending on our astrological makeup, some signs will be more expressed, comfortable or obvious and others will feel foreign to us or remain more hidden. Power comes in exploring and activating each of these energies within our selves and tapping into them as needed throughout the different seasons, not only of the year, but of our lives.
This series will follow the astrological calendar in real time with a monthly post and playlist intended to inform and evoke the essence of the featured zodiac sign within that season and within yourself.
