Sagittarius and Scorpio Relationship at a Glance

Download Article
  1. Typically, you don’t see a water sign (Scorpio) and a fire sign (Sag) pairing up, but somehow, these two can make it work. Sagittarius’s lively, gentle nature has a tendency to attract the more brooding, serious Scorpio. They both value honesty and loyalty, so their morals are similar, and they complement each other well. [1]
    • The main pitfall in a Scorpio Sagittarius relationship is a Scorpio’s tendency to be stubborn. This is a pretty foreign concept for the mutable, easy going Sag, and it can cause them to clash.

Sagittarius and Scorpio Sexual Compatibility

  1. Sagittariuses are more likely to be adventurous and try new things. Meanwhile, Scorpios love to stick to what they know. If both people in the relationship can compromise with each other, they’ll have a healthy, fulfilling sex life in no time. [2]
    • This isn’t to say that Scorpio is boring in bed—quite the opposite, in fact. However, they tend to assign more emotional depth to sex, whereas Sags view it as a fun activity to do with someone they love.
    • Scorpio is co-ruled by the planets Mars and Pluto. Mars is known for deep emotional passion, while Pluto is the planet of energy.
    • Pluto is also known as the planet of intensity, intimacy, and sexuality.

  1. Sagittarius is ruled by the planet Jupiter, the planet of exploration, and Scorpio’s natural perception and intuition is fueled by their water sign status. This pairing will have fun exploring and going on adventures together, as well as having deep conversations about the wonders of the universe. [4]
    • This is why Scorpios and Sags sometimes make better friends than lovers. They might not mesh well emotionally, but they can hang out all day every day and never get tired of each other.

Sagittarius and Scorpio: Biggest Problems

Download Article
  1. Sags are free spirits, and they hate feeling too attached to their partners. This can cause Scorpio to feel like they can’t trust the Sag, even though both partners value honesty over everything. The pairing can work on this issue by talking freely about what they’re thinking and feeling—once they both understand where the other is coming from, they can reach a compromise that works for them both. [5]
    • Scorpios also tend to be jealous, which is a foreign concept to Sagittariuses.
  2. In relationships, this can lead to a lot of confusion and hurt feelings. Scorpios are much less likely to go with the flow like the easygoing Sag, and that can cause some conflict. However, if the Sag is able to give the Scorpio enough time, they might be able to work past this difference.
