Capricorn and Pisces Compatibility

Capricorn and Pisces are two signs apart, a sextile between cardinal earth and mutable water. Capricorn gives structure, dependability and direction. Pisces gives empathy, imagination and gentleness. Each provides the very thing the other finds most difficult.

Are Capricorn and Pisces compatible?

Yes. Communication and long-term ease score high and chemistry is strong. The sextile shows complementary strengths, one practical and one intuitive, working together with little strain.

  • Chemistry 8/10
  • Communication 9/10
  • Long-term 9/10

How the scores are worked out: signs two apart (a sextile) start at 7, 9 and 8 for chemistry, communication and long-term ease. Capricorn’s earth adds a point of long-term ease and Pisces’s water adds a point to the lowest score, chemistry. Overall: 8.7/10, which the Codex calls “Natural flow”.

What attracts Capricorn and Pisces?

The romance is quiet. Pisces perceives the sensitive person behind Capricorn’s defences, and Capricorn feels needed and softened as a result. With so steady a partner, Pisces may feel secure in a way it has not before.

Where do Capricorn and Pisces clash?

Capricorn may brush feelings aside and lose patience with vagueness. Pisces may feel criticised and respond by drifting off or escaping. A common scene is one partner working late while the other feels overlooked.
