Astrological compatibility
Sagittarius and Pisces
♐ Sagittarius (Fire, Mutable) · ♓ Pisces (Water, Mutable)
Sagittarius and Pisces form a square, the aspect of friction: they share a modality but not an element, so both want the same thing in different ways. There's spark and there's clash; it works if they choose it.

Sagittarius and Pisces in love
In love there's magnetism and strong emotions: Fire wants action, Water wants depth. They can ignite each other or hurt each other; the key is minding how things are said.
In friendship and work
In friendship and work, both adapt and change plans easily: lots of flexibility, little direction. Setting goals helps them.
Why they get along this way
Element — Steam and transformation. Fire heats Water and Water can put out Fire: magnetism and intensity, with the challenge of regulating the temperature.
Rhythm. Both are mutable: both adapt. They understand each other's way of moving, but neither makes up for what the other lacks.
Polarity. Sagittarius is Yang and Pisces is Yin: one goes outward and the other inward, and that balances them or pulls them apart.
Rulers. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter (expansion and meaning); Pisces, by Neptune and Jupiter (dreams and sensitivity; expansion and meaning).
What each one brings
Sagittarius: optimism, philosophy and adventure.
Pisces: intuition, empathy and creativity.
Where they can clash
Sagittarius: exaggeration, difficulty committing and impatience.
Pisces: escapism, idealism and dependence.
How to look after the bond
Pick your fights and agree beforehand on who decides what. Used well, the tension of the square is an engine; used badly, it wears you down.
