Scorpio and Sagittarius Compatibility

Scorpio and Sagittarius are adjoining signs, a semi-sextile between fixed water and mutable fire. Scorpio wants to bond closely and hold on; Sagittarius wants to roam and discover. Scorpio keeps the truth guarded, while Sagittarius tends to announce it.

Are Scorpio and Sagittarius compatible?

They can be, with negotiation. The scores are even and moderate, as neighbouring signs start low and fire and water both add a point. Their shared interest in what is true gives them more to talk about than their temperaments suggest.

• Chemistry 6/10
• Communication 6/10
• Long-term 6/10

How the scores are worked out: neighbouring signs (a semi-sextile) start at 5, 5 and 6 for chemistry, communication and long-term ease. Sagittarius’s fire adds a point of chemistry and Scorpio’s water adds a point to the lowest score, communication. Overall: 6/10, which the Codex calls “Rewarding work”.

What attracts Scorpio and Sagittarius?

Both are searchers. Scorpio digs downward and Sagittarius ranges outward, and their conversations can be unusually honest. Sagittarius’s lightness refreshes Scorpio, and Scorpio’s intensity holds Sagittarius’s attention.

Where do Scorpio and Sagittarius clash?

Scorpio grows insecure when Sagittarius wanders, and Sagittarius feels observed. Sagittarius’s easy candour may reveal matters Scorpio regards as confidential. In short, a possessive streak comes up against a need for freedom.
