What are some good play ideas for the 4th of July?

Based on the characteristics of the sign, what games would you make a Sagittarius play?

• Please take a few seconds to think about the question and note any ideas you might have before reading on. The reason I'm asking (Mercury in Scorpio, always interested in people's motivation and therefore assuming they are too) is as follows. I read in a synastry book that the 5th house also represents games people play to each other. That's not always as sweet as it sounds. For those interested in a more detailed explanation, Eric Berne's - Games People Play: The Psychology of Human Relationships is a very good read of the ahhh-so-that's-what-it-was-all-about variety. The author of the synastry book equates the 5th house with that area of nasty game-playing. He practically states that when one of your natal planets falls into another person's 5th house that person unconsciously gives you a very detailed "script" to play out and as time passes, you'll realise that sidetracking from that script is virtually impossible as far as the planet is concerned. The planet is the actor and the sign is the role. For example, a Venus in Cancer would have to play the role of a nurturer (Cancer) in social gatherings (Venus) and would not be allowed to express in any other way. If that Venus in Cancer falls in a more intimate house in the person's natal chart, say the 4th, that person risks falling deeply in love with the other who's basically just game-playing. The only way out, according to the author, is if the planet person unfolds the game of the house person which, as you might guess, is not very likely to happen. The issue is I have been dealing with a guy for more than two years now and, unfortunately, my Sun is in his 5th house. We have more intimate placements, like planets in 4th and 8th houses, but still the Sun is the major planet. The thing is that with a Sun-Mars square and a Moon in Leo I like challenges and I like winning so I've decided to take the not-so-easy task of unfolding this guy's 5th house Sag game. The sad news is my Sun is very vulnerable there since it's in my 8th house natally so I take all this a lot more seriously than he does. Nevertheless, I'm committed to at least trying and with natal Mars in a fixed sign (Aqua) chances are I won't give up soon. The question is what exactly a Sag game is. He acts like a teacher who's "very willing" to introduce me to some meditation practices as if that's some deeply occult knowledge only he has access to. I don't like feeling pressurised so I learn what I want when I want and in the way I want it. He's accused me several times of being irresponsible and just toying with all the knowledge I have. While this can be true to a certain extent I also think it applies to him but he absolutely refuses to see that he's not taking it very seriously either since he already thinks he's a kind of a guru or something. I am trying to show him his own irresponsibility and game-playing. So my question is if there are any ways to break a Sag game and what else apart from teaching could fall in the Sag domain. I know that's like basic astrology question which practically asks what Sag's characteristics are, which is ridiculous to be asked by a Sag, but it's very hard for me to remain objective once I'm deeply personally involved. Thank you for your time.
