Getting past the tendency to stay a certain way. To use wisdom and judgement when it comes to the strengths/weaknesses in the make up of my chart and people as a whole. Overall, to get past being a Sagittarius and be a better person and spiritual being. Our signs and charts are nothing more than just a guide to help us get past being ourselves and staying in our comfort zones. Especially when it comes to love. I'm sorry but if you think love is based on synastry and planet alignments, venus, and conjunctions, then you'll make it harder to love unconditionally and disqualify someone who truly was meant for you.

@Jynja:
I agree with part of your premise and conclusion except for the part of survival. This is actually an interesting topic. Is it about self survival or survival of the species. I'm under the guise that it is the latter and not the former. Notice in your example that the first humans hid in caves. Scientific evidence points to the fact that they lived in groups and this pattern of behavior exists in all living things down to the basic cellular level. By working in groups and combining resources, you not only ensure self survival but survival of the species. But go even further than that. The species not only survives, but thrives. It is the self sacrifice that brings survival of the species to fruition. Which is why I find it odd that our cells pool themselves together to create us and help us thrive but yet we'll become selfish and only think of ourselves when it comes to love and relationships. Hence, if you only focus on self, you will do what it takes for you to survive. But when the chain is linked in togetherness, each giving to the other who gives to the other, we go beyond the boundaries of survival and evolve.

Well, I am actually talking about the soul in it's journey through the twelve signs as astrology suggests. I will need to ask for clarification on selfless sharing etc though. Because, I remember something about the species turning cannibalistic or something.
Forgive me, I'm a fledgling scientist's assistant who only pays attention when I want something. How utterly selfish.

Evolving means to change over time. In my eyes, evolving means to change over time... but for the better.
To be an "evolved" (insert sign here), means that the individual has looked past what most use astrology for... To define others. Isn't that why we all got into astrology in the first place...?
"Why does Scorp man/woman do this?!"
"Why did the Cancer man disappear?"
To be an "evolved" (insert sign here), means that the individial has learned to accept who others may be, and instead... Use astrology to define one's own weaknesses and negative traits.
To be an "evolved" (insert sign here), means that the individual who has defined those traits and weaknesses... Has learned that they are not entirely bad, but rather make them who they are.
To be an "evolved" (insert sign here), means that the idividual has learned the self control needed to keep the negative under wraps, and not let it consume their life to the point that it affects others.
To be an "evolved" (insert sign here), means that one uses astrology to better one's self by means of understanding their own chart first, and discovering what they need in their life in order to be happy... Instead of trying to fit the mold of what another individual in their life may need.

So am I what I think and feel?

Astrology itself seems to be a part of the ego we embrace to define ourselves. So imo it??s kind of irrelevant. It can be a good guide or personal comparison to identify and overcome limitations in certain areas, but so can anything else.

I'm not sure that I agree with this.
I believe that the natal chart (astrology in general) sheds light on who we really are, negative parts included. And in order to see those aspects clearly, the ego must be brought back down to a managible level.
I've said is once before, and I'll say it again. Breaking down one's ego is the first step in becoming a better person. And I will attempt to do that every day I wake, until the day I die.
So... Astrology is not a part of the ego, but rather a tool used to define the aspects that the ego refuses to confront. So in my eyes, it is most defenitely relevant.
