The Top 23 Sagittarius Constellation Tattoo Ideas – [2022 Inspiration Guide]

Sagittarius is commonly represented as a centaur pulling back a bow, and the sign means archer in Latin. However, the constellation itself–how it lines up in the stars–is also a popular choice.

Marking off the sign’s pattern in the stars can combine with other elements such as an armed centaur, a bow and arrow, or the huntress, to make interesting and high-quality designs reflecting your Zodiac symbol.

Many collectors relate to the personality types ascribed to each Zodiac symbol and incorporate these ideas into body art.

Secondary images work well with the central constellation in body art. These include:

• A centaur (often with bow and arrow)
• A huntress (popular with female collectors)
• Other Zodiac signs
• Quotes and affirmations
• The moon, sun, and solar system
• Dates of birth and names

The Sagittarius Zodiac symbols–constellation, glyph, centaur, bow and arrow–are versatile design choices from both a technical and placement perspective.

Style-wise, these images can be done in numerous ways, such as simple small blank ink linework, colorful watercolor tattoos, or realistic pieces.

Popular spots to place Sagittarius Zodiac tattoos include the ankle and lower leg, inner wrist, on the chest, or along the back and shoulder.

Generally, Sagittarius and other Zodiac symbol tattoos tend towards smaller designs. Simple, one ink color or black tattoos can cost less than $200 for work by an experienced pro, who average $150-$200 per hour.

For small designs in complex detail, large designs, or those etched in a bright range of colors, they can cost 2 to 2.5 times the price of a similar simple tattoo ($400-$500).

Engaging a single needle specialist or rockstar tattoo artist can result in prices starting at $300 per hour, so make sure you have a solid understanding of the price before committing to the work.
