Thunder only happens when it raining.
This is quite a fiery cosmic match of two vibrant, opinionated, and dynamic characters. It’s not necessarily an easy astrology match to navigate because it is very unpredictable, but there’s a high degree of excitement. This zodiac combination can be filled with sexual passion, and the relationship can be particularly rewarding if they are two individuals who are seeking personal growth and are at a stage in their life where they are ready for anything.
However, if either of them are on the rebound, feeling vulnerable, or particularly needy, this relationship probably is one to steer clear of because it may just be a little bit too wild and unpredictable, which might not help those who are looking for some stability at a more vulnerable time in their life.
However, it’s definitely not a bad astrology combination, and it all just depends on the readiness each has for truly exploring new dimensions in their life.
In Scorpio, we have fixed water and that is totally different in element and modality to Sagittarius, who is mutable air. Being a fixed zodiac sign, Scorpio really likes a certain amount of stability, predictability, and loyalty, and Sagittarius, being mutable air, is an extremely flexible, adaptable star sign that goes with the flow and responds to whims.
Scorpio is slightly more serious and dedicated; Sagittarius tends to be more adventurous and free-spirited. They both have very different outlooks on love and the way they communicate and their styles of approaching life are very different.
Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, is very dynamic and quite rebellious, and with Sagittarius, we have a ruler, Jupiter, which is constantly seeking expansion and is also fairly adventurous and risk-taking. So there’s a rather tasty synergy between Pluto and Jupiter: both want to press boundaries, both have a penchant for something that is a little bit daring, and both have courage. That’s where they can come together in a relationship that holds endless possibilities.
This relationship has a 60% chance of being successful long-term, but it can be very exciting short-term.
Romantic Compatibility
When it comes to romance, Scorpio really wants to be inspired. They need something a little bit different to give them that spark. Scorpio are quite curious in love, they get bored easily, and they want someone who’s got imagination and also that element of faith, where they have trust in the universe and are willing to leap into things.
Scorpio are also looking for an antidote to their more controlling, obsessive, and anxious side, so in that, Sagittarius is excellent. The optimistic, sunny, and humorous Sagittarius certainly makes Scorpio feel alive, and they’re excited to be with the Sagittarian. In some ways, this match gives Scorpio more confidence, and it helps them access their inner rebel.
There’s a side of Scorpio, a hidden part of their nature, that is actually very freedom-orientated and wants to fly by the seat of their pants and Sagittarius can activate that part of their nature, which is rather exciting.
In terms of Sagittarius, they enjoy a romantic partner who is quite strong-willed and very fiery. Because Scorpio’s co-ruler is Mars, this is fantastic as Sagittarius feels inspired to be with Scorpio; they’ve got a hint of rebelliousness about them, and they’re also fairly courageous and forthright. This makes Sagittarius feel emboldened and caters to their need for excitement.
So together, they can be rebels with a cause – partners in crime and people who have a romance that’s fast-flowing, very active, quite fiery, and fairly unpredictable. They both feel excited and want to see what’s next.
Sexual Compatibility
These two star signs are fairly compatible sexually. They both have a high degree of enthusiasm and desire. They are both people who like to paint their life in bright, bold colours and neither of their characters are meek or mild. They are both fairly spicy people, and therefore when they come together, there’s a hint of adventure, and they are very eager to please each other.
Sagittarius enjoy a chase, and because Scorpio is a bit of an enigma, that’s really exciting for them. Sexually speaking Scorpio likes something that is highly stimulating, that maintains curiosity, and that’s a little bit unpredictable. Scorpio loves someone who can make them laugh and help them relax and see the funny side of life and Sagittarius can do that.
There’s definitely an underlying feeling that they don’t quite understand each other, because emotionally they express very differently, but that actually adds to the sexual excitement. There’s more questions than answers in this relationship, and the more pioneering and daring sides of them are drawn to it.
It can be a very fulfilling and passionate affair, although they could be a little bit confused about what each other wants. However, they both become fairly flexible sexually when together.
Friendship Between Sagittarius and Scorpio
This is a curious mix of zodiac signs, because they are instinctively similar but practically antithetical. They communicate very differently, and therefore the friendship doesn’t always feel natural but they enjoy being together. Now, the one thing people would underestimate is that both these star signs like their own company and to do their own thing.
Scorpios can be loners; Sagittarius are free spirits who like to explore, to have time to think, and perhaps pursue activities outdoors that they do by themselves. Sagittarius are social people, but they don’t necessarily want to hang around and be everyone’s best friend and in that way, they’re like Scorpio.
Both these Sun signs are quite content to do things independently, to work alone, and also to have free time to think. Both of them don’t want to be suffocated, and they both don’t enjoy being with people who are excessively needy, because they find that emotionally exhausting. It can be quite rewarding as when both of them come together they have good times, but are also happy to do their own thing.
They’re also a couple who can be together yet not have to be constantly talking and entertaining each other, which is also what makes a kind of powerful and fruitful friendship.
Sagittarius can actually have a hard time trusting the Scorpio, because Sagittarius likes to figure things out, and the Scorpio always seems to be one step ahead and that can be both a challenge and a frustration for Sagittarius.
They also can be two people who are very opinionated, so if they’re going to lock horns about politics or other highly charged issues like religion, things could get contentious. Politics and religion are definitely subjects they can fall out over, and ones better avoided.
Marriage and Long-Term Potential
As exciting and engaging as this cosmic relationship can be, there is a question mark over whether they will both want to get involved with each other long-term. There’s going to be doubts on both sides. Sagittarius may be a little bit concerned that Scorpio is too intense, wants routine, and doesn’t really open up. They may find it hard to gauge what Scorpio is thinking; they may feel that the goalposts are always shifting, and they may just not feel secure with Scorpio, because Scorpio doesn’t communicate in a way that they readily understand.
Scorpio will always question Sagittarius’ commitment. The freedom-loving, slightly commitment-phobic side of Sagittarius is a worry. Scorpio wants a partner who’s going to show dedication, loyalty, and consistency. They are looking for a sensual, earthy partner who really treats and spoils them.
While Sagittarius is warm and can be exciting, Scorpio doesn’t really get that intensity they’re looking for. They feel that Sagittarius doesn’t always follow through on promises and sometimes exaggerates, leaving Scorpio feeling a little bit deflated.
There are many things that they disagree on, and their values in life also tend to be at odds. So, while they can feel fairly happy and content together and enjoy each other’s company, they’re both reticent about making a commitment, which can mean this relationship fizzles out when it comes to marriage.
However, if they’re both older and happy to just enjoy a sexual and romantic relationship, it can actually be perfect. When it comes to long-term commitment, both of them have some serious doubts, and although they can make it work, they’re both going to have to learn to be a lot more compromising.
Strengths and Challenges of the Relationship
Both are courageous, adventurous zodiac signs who want to push barriers. Scorpio and Sagittarius together can have a dynamic, interesting, engaging relationship where they both embrace growth and develop their personalities. It can be a strong match in terms of pursuing spiritual goals and also working on their self-worth, so there’s a lot of positives in terms of personal growth and transformation in this relationship.
Sexually, it’s exciting, there’s a chemical attraction. They are not necessarily wildly affectionate, but the relationship is quite hot. There’s a lot of desire and excitement; they stimulate each other’s passions, and the bedroom is rarely boring.
They respect each other’s personalities, and the differences between them can form a delicate balance. Sagittarius is more optimistic and happy-go-lucky, bringing humour and new opportunities to Scorpio’s life. Scorpio has greater emotional awareness, which helps them understand Sagittarius’ suppressed emotional side and guides them to face their demons, their dark side, and to develop psychologically.
This zodiac match can struggle in the long term. Scorpio is much more keen on commitment, they want a partner who is steady, reliable, very affectionate, and who has a more conservative side to them. Sometimes Sagittarius is just a little bit too restless and carefree for Scorpio’s nature. Sagittarius might find Scorpio controlling and could struggle with their more possessive and brooding side.
They both have a temper, both can be a little bit dramatic, and there are times when they can collide drastically. They’re both very competitive star signs, can be opinionated, and like to have the last word which will also make arguments escalate.
Communication and values are a problem. Sagittarius like to live for the day; they take chances and don’t like to settle down. Scorpio can be rebellious and adventurous too, but in the long term, they seek stability and strong signs of loyalty and consistency from a partner. In the end, Scorpio may find Sagittarius not serious enough. Sagittarius might find Scorpio a little too serious and sometimes emotionally opaque. Sagittarius is forgiving, and Scorpio holds grudges and that’s where they begin to dislike each other.
Final Verdict
This can be a great rebound relationship, a passionate fling, or a great relationship for people who are older and looking for something that doesn’t necessarily have to lead to marriage. It can be a trickier one if the couple want to raise children together as they have very different ideas when it comes to family life, money, and child-rearing, which makes making decisions very difficult.
While the chemistry is there and it’s a sexually exciting relationship, and while it’s also dynamic and enlivening, because they can discover so many things together, it’s also one of contrasts. Sagittarius is future-orientated, tends to forgive and forget, and has a more outgoing side, whereas Scorpio takes life seriously, feels hurt deeply, tends not to forget, and thus likes a partner who will show them a lot of attention and have their back.
Scorpio can sometimes feel that Sagittarius promises the earth and delivers a grain of sand. Sagittarius will struggle with Scorpio’s sting and the vengeful side of Scorpio when they are hurt. Both of these star signs need to take a leaf out of each other’s book and use this relationship as an opportunity to develop new aspects of themselves.
Scorpio can develop greater optimism, a sense of adventure, and the desire to take chances. Sagittarius can become more emotionally mature, understand their inner nature and hidden shadow side better through knowing Scorpio.
Overall, this gets a 60% chance of success. It’s more successful when second decan Scorpio is with Sagittarius, or when third decan Sagittarius is with Scorpio.
Any star sign match is, of course, modified greatly by the Ascendant, Moon, and Venus signs — which will give more bearing on affectionate, sexual, and spiritual compatibility.
