The red comes from 丙, the sun. When you walk in, the room gets warmer. The dog (戌): loyal and protective — your people are safe with you. Sagittarius is fire: you look far ahead and long for open roads.

When the Red Dog fights

When you fightYou hold it for ages, then it all bursts.While you're giving, you say nothing — until it isn't noticed.

How you're misreadPeople say you explode out of nowhere.It's not out of nowhere. It's the end of a long time trying alone.

Your strength in a conflictYou protect with loyalty.Even after a fight, you're still on their side.

What Sagittarius addsYour honesty flies like an arrow.Sagittarius fire makes you blunter. Blunt the arrowhead once.

One small stepWhile the hurt is small, say it right away.
